Jay 37,364 Posted February 16, 2017 Share Posted February 16, 2017 I think he's had 3 different eras of his career: First was a run of amazing video game scores, peppered with early tv drama work (94-03) Next was the amazingness of LOST (04-10), with some excellent Pixar scores among that but nothing else super fantastic in the film world And now we're in his big blockbuster film era (2011-present), full of big epic scores, most of which are pretty great! I love his LOST more than anything else, but apart from Incredibles, Ratatouille and Up, his best film work is happening right now! leeallen01 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mstrox 6,651 Posted February 16, 2017 Share Posted February 16, 2017 No, with the exception of maybe London Calling, but that's a bit of an outlier piece from the score in total. But hey, they're tied for 11th! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KittBash 282 Posted February 17, 2017 Share Posted February 17, 2017 Agreed where's our Semper Fi, Trouble with Lou, or SIN!!! Maybe someday... hey they released Sky High! Albeit that's from a major studio. I actually almost watched 50/50 on Netflix just to hear the score for the first time... might still actually do it.

Jay 37,364 Posted February 17, 2017 Share Posted February 17, 2017 50/50 is a very good film, well worth your time. Don't remember what the score is like, though (I am pretty sure there isn't a lot of it in the film, anyway). This Is Where I Leave You is not as good of a film (nice cast, though), but does have a more memorable score (and one long enough you could make an album out of it, I think) KittBash 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

leeallen01 2,136 Posted July 3, 2017 Share Posted July 3, 2017 We'll know when Dunkirk hits. Zimmer seems tired of general scoring. Hence his need for a big tour break to just play music and score less huge blockbusters. My guess is he is winding down for a few years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thestat 348 Posted July 18, 2017 Share Posted July 18, 2017 My battles with MG are prolonged. I still cannot understand the recording processes he uses - yes, a 70s child will press for a nostalgic sound. But how does this fit with the MG team when Wachowskis demand a proper score or Kathleen Kennedy stops the recording manwanking that MG implements - surely someone out there will say - 'Hey Mike, why does this sound like shit?'. Regardless, I have spent the last week listening to MG scores. And this stuff works. Jupiter Ascending will be known as Krull for orchestral mayhem in years to come. Speed Racer is awesome, and the score for the latest Planet is just astonoshing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
