Hey, wait, you should delete some Tracks, too.But the highly anticipated "Gettysburg Chase" where Lincoln duels Jefferson Davis with Rapiers while riding on horseback is already missing.Damn! That is my Holy Grail of the Lincoln score! "Scherzo for the Enraged President and Orchestra" is 9 minutes of pure Presidential swashbuckling bliss and JW left it off the album!Typical, just typical! I mean a chase for 3 tubas, 10 piccolo trumpets, a banjo and string quartet plus an accordion. Absolutely frenetic stuff.And by the way the Early Years ("The Adventures of Abe") is just a concert version of the middle portion of the "Scherzo for the Enraged President and Orchestra". That theme does not appear anywhere else in the film so it is not really a theme. I hope JW wins a Grammy for it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeshopk 8 Posted February 20, 2009 Share Posted February 20, 2009 Munich is horribly dry Jess, and Kotcs was ok, nothing special.Munich is an emotional powerhouse of a score. KOTC is special. Considering that you have an affinity for very similar music, your insensitivity to the music indicates an emotional detachment from new stimulus. I recommend opening your heart meridian using internal QiGong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wojo 2,453 Posted February 20, 2009 Share Posted February 20, 2009 I'm not upset at all about this. Big screen biopics rarely interest me, as I never saw Amistad, and a big budget depiction of Lincoln doesn't interest me either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
indy4 155 Posted February 20, 2009 Share Posted February 20, 2009 I suspect this is has more to do with the economy being bad than anything else.I agree. Taking a look at his most recent films, they've been able to earn a lot of money at the BO. I'm dissapointed, because I doubt this'll be replaced by a new JW score. At this point, I don't really care too much WHAT movie JW is scoring, just that he's scoring a movie that will be released in the near future. Of course I would prefer him to be scoring popcorn fluff, but I would have settled for a historical drama quite contently. Let's hope Indy 5 or Interstellar replaces this.

Wojo 2,453 Posted February 20, 2009 Share Posted February 20, 2009 When did Spielberg stop making movies for the fans and start making them for the art critics, movie critics, and awards shows? Indy IV was meant to be for the fans, but it got perverted by post 1997 George Lucas. Was it Schindler's List? Granted, that one was a huge success in every sense of the word, and I'm sure the people who love it do so for good reason. But did SS develop get the idea he could put his name on anything and it would become a critical success, even at the expense of being a financial one? I see movies like AI, Munich, Amistad, WOTW, and The Terminal and just wonder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wojo 2,453 Posted February 20, 2009 Share Posted February 20, 2009 I understand why he would make personal films. It's good, he's earned it, and he spent a lifetime of filming B-movies with A-budgets to define just what a blockbuster is.I just wonder if the studios are tired of them and would like some mega-hit blockbusters to bring the money in in droves, and they didn't think a Lincoln movie would do it. I think if a Lincoln movie had come out NOW, around President's Day, Lincoln's Birthday, Black History Month, and that CNN list naming Abe the best president ever...that a Spielberg Lincoln movie would do better now than at year's end.
