Kasey Kockroach 2,344 Posted April 3, 2018 Share Posted April 3, 2018 Ice Age: Continental Drift by John Powell I've recently experienced the horrifying realization that Jurassic Park and Ice Age are the only series where I own the score for each film.

John 2,032 Posted April 4, 2018 Share Posted April 4, 2018 The Post, by John Williams To be perfectly honest, it's nothing special. Granted, "The Presses Roll" and "Two Martini Lunch" are pretty fun cues, but everything else is... alright. Maybe it works better in the film than as a listening experience, but I haven't seen it yet. *** and 1/2 out of ***** Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crocodile 8,007 Posted April 4, 2018 Share Posted April 4, 2018 Thor: Ragnarok by Mark Mothersbaugh. Average ingredients compiled incredibly well. Along with Black Panther, it's one of the more exciting Marvel scores. Somehow, I doubt Silvestri can do better...but we'll see. Karol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jay 37,353 Posted April 4, 2018 Share Posted April 4, 2018 Alan Silvestri - Ready Player One Not doing it for me other than that nice Main Title track; Hopefully after seeing the film my thoughts will change James Horner - Living In The Age of Airplanes Glorious!

crocodile 8,007 Posted April 4, 2018 Share Posted April 4, 2018 First thing I would get rid of is this end credits suite. It's absolutely pointless. And then I would also drop all this modern "thriller" music. The remaining music would indeed give something between 50-60 minutes of very solid Silvestri.

crocodile 8,007 Posted April 4, 2018 Share Posted April 4, 2018 The Death of Stalin by Christopher Willis. As far as Shostakovich pastiches go, this one is really convincing.

Kasey Kockroach 2,344 Posted April 5, 2018 Share Posted April 5, 2018 Ice Age: Collision Course by John Debney Probably the least great score of the fivesome, especially bittersweet coming off the epic Powell "trilogy". Still fun modern cartoon scoring, and intertwining both Newman and Powell themes is awfully kind of him. Alas, while Powell's scores were musical narratives, Debney's just providing orchestral background noise to poop jokes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kasey Kockroach 2,344 Posted April 5, 2018 Share Posted April 5, 2018 Rio and Rio 2 by John Powell Just experimenting around trying to blend in songs and score together. I don't know what the general consensus in terms of which score is better, but I admit to liking the sequel score a teeny bit more. It embraces the Brazilian sound a bit more. Flying from the original is a classic cue though, among other highlights. Also, grandpa is convinced the "Real in Rio" song sounds like Jeepers Creepers.

Kasey Kockroach 2,344 Posted April 6, 2018 Share Posted April 6, 2018 Ice Age: Continental Drift by John Powell Such a beautiful end to a delightful trilogy of scores, each one with own unique flavor (pirates for this one, dinosaurs for the last one, and just generally having fun introducing his soundscape for the first).

It's big, and bold, and brassy, but, like the film, it's ultimately ephemeral, and a little empty. It's like cotton candy: nice to eat, but it doesn't satisfy you.

Jurassic Shark 12,067 Posted April 6, 2018 Share Posted April 6, 2018 @Richard, is there any good compilation album of highlights from Barry's Bond music, either in original recordings or re-recordings? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Naïve Old Fart 9,516 Posted April 6, 2018 Share Posted April 6, 2018 Hmm. Good question. A big 30th anniversary collection was released in...well...1992, and included a lot of unreleased music. There's also a COP box called BOND BACK IN ACTION, which goes up to TWINE. Its not bad and has the Orient Express music from FRWL, the elevator music from AVTAK, and the film version of A NICE DRIVE THROUGH ST. PETERSBURG, from GoldenEye. I know that that's not Barry, but... Many, many Barry compilations exist, but, as for Bond, it's simply best to make your own awesome mix tape. I'd recommend you include: JAMES BOND THEME BOND TAKES THE LEKTOR 007 DAWN RAID ON FORT KNOX BOND UNDERWATER SPACE MARCH JOURNEY TO BLOFELD'S HIDEAWAY SLUMBER INC.

Jurassic Shark 12,067 Posted April 6, 2018 Share Posted April 6, 2018 I've ordered the 3CD set The Real John Barry (Sony), where the first CD is dedicated to Bond in a mix of original recordings and re-recordings. But I'm not convinced that will do... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
