  1. 1. Do you think Star Wars: The Force Awakens is the best score of 2015?

Definitely one of the best - I have yet to tally up all of the year's scores that I enjoyed (wasn't many).

Even though it's far from a perfect score, I think it still represents most other composers on a good day.

Well, it's the only one I listened and bought!

Why it can't be the best?


Apparently my CD won't arrive till the 23rd...

22 here.... Canada... ehhh. :-)

Got to admire Morricone and Williams' ability to completely annihilate their younger competition. Giacchino has had probably his best ever year and he hasn't written anything that come close to "Rey's Theme" (in my opinion at least). I absolutely love the first track from "The Hateful 8"

Giacchino isn't really a lyrical theme wizard. Williams can spill coffee on his piano and come up with a usable theme as he wipes at the keys.


The lamentation in "The Starkiller" is better than anything written in the last 10 years.

That section of the film was extraordinary with the music. Very affecting. Rey's theme is still better ;)

So the "guest" (Mr. MO) needed to come back just to vote against Williams, for Gia.

His disappointment of Williams' modern output is... hilarious.

Glad someone else noticed that :)
