Score 770 Posted April 4, 2019 Share Posted April 4, 2019 I strongly prefer the movie Alien to the movie E.T. . I cannot decide about the scores, because they are both excellent for their respective purposes and they are just too different stylistically to be compared in a meaningful way. So, I won't vote!

Thor 7,451 Posted April 4, 2019 Share Posted April 4, 2019 This is getting silly. For film -- ALIEN, of course. For score, I had to ponder a bit. It's a very close race, but ultimately I chose E.T. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SteveMc 2,674 Posted April 5, 2019 Share Posted April 5, 2019 Well, I primarily judge scores on their musical value outside of context. Context is important, but, for me at least, a score that works excellently in context, but poorly on its own is inferior to one that works merely serviceable in context, but very well on its own. Of course, a score that is capital in film and out of it is a true champion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
