Cerebral Cortex 3,357 Posted July 27, 2017 Share Posted July 27, 2017 I don't really care for Rogue One's score as a whole, despite it having a couple moments I appreciate. It gets a negative score for me (approx. -1). I haven't heard Powell's score so I'm neutral on it (neither negative or positive, 0). Because 0 is greater than -1, I currently must like Powell's Han Solo score better than Giacchino's Rogue One score. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arpy 4,145 Posted May 28, 2018 Share Posted May 28, 2018 I'm not entirely sure it's a fair contest. Just by the sheer excellence behind the score for Solo, the combined efforts of Williams' help and Powell's energy, Solo comes out on top as a well-constructed and marvelous score brimming with energy and emotion. Michael Giacchino's score is still effective and I believe that he pulled one hell of a score out of scrambling for the little time he had, and don't give me any shit that he had 'more than enough time to write it', any composer stepping into these huge and prestigious boots would dream for more time, especially for a Star Wars score. Giacchino accepted the job and made the best of what he could with the time he had. James 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
