Code 000. Destruct. 0. 4,262 Posted September 27, 2014 Posted September 27, 2014 Oh yes, Her, absolutely!
crocodile 9,724 Posted September 27, 2014 Posted September 27, 2014 There was loads of good stuff this year. And quite eclectic bunch as well.Karol
Gnome in Plaid 219 Posted September 27, 2014 Posted September 27, 2014 Godzilla, HTTYD 2, Maleficent, A Million Ways to Die in the WestOf those, I've heard HTTYD 2 and Maleficent, and wasn't especially impressed by either.  Forgot about A Million Ways to Die in the West... heard pretty good things about it.In no particular order... Godzilla, HTTYD 2, Maleficent, A Million Ways to Die in the West  Giacchino's ape thing is very solid also. And TASM2 has a decent amount of good material if you edit the album wisely.Under The Skin is excellent but might not be your kind of thing.The Amazing Spider-Man 2 is one of the most frustrating listens I've had in quite some time.  On one hand, the first three minutes or so of "Harry's Suite" are some of the best Zimmer's put out in quite a while, and there are some really neat ideas in "The Electro Suite," but, damn, the dubstep stuff in there is horrendous and I can't hear the Pharrell Williams chant without laughing my ass off at how stupid it is.  As I said in the Zimmer appreciation thread, "Oh, what I would give for a version of "The Electro Suite" with that damn ludicrous chant replaced by strings and the dubstep-ish electronica replaced by overdriven guitars." I just looked up the samples from Under the Skin, and I'm pretty intrigued.  If you like "quirky", then look no further than "Grand Budapest Hotel". Both "Her" and "The Double" are good (the "T.V." music is pure cheddar, but enjoyable).Ps Pil is right: "UTS" is great. Haven't heard Grand Budapest Hotel; didn't like Her. Also, to my original list, I'll add The Monuments Men.  After your suggestions, I still eagerly await BOFA, Inherent Vice, and Rosewater (which I sent an email to Jon Stewart about offering to write for after I read Maziar Bahari's book - never heard back, although I didn't expect to).
crocodile 9,724 Posted September 27, 2014 Posted September 27, 2014 Yeah it is a decent score one of better works of Brian Tyler.The Giver is good but not the most striking. It's about subtlety here. Kind of like Snowpiercer. You wouldn't exactly recommend them to common meat and potatoes types like Stefan or Quint. No march in there. Karol
#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 12,384 Posted September 27, 2014 Posted September 27, 2014 Go tile a bathroom, Polish boy!
Jay 46,241 Posted September 27, 2014 Posted September 27, 2014 Any 2014 scores people can recommend? Into the Storm and Grand Piano are the only releases so far this year I've enjoyed.Grand Piano was last year. Great score! For 2014, check out Monuments Men, Grand Budapest Hotel, Cosmos, Godzilla, Maleficent, A Million Ways To Die In The West, Dawn of the Planet of the Apes, Planes Fire and Rescue, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. All are on Spotify.
#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 12,384 Posted September 27, 2014 Posted September 27, 2014 A poor year for film scores!
Koray Savas 2,260 Posted September 27, 2014 Posted September 27, 2014 It's been pretty great so far. I'll add Shore's Maps To The Stars. Code 000. Destruct. 0. and crocodile 2
mrbellamy 8,237 Posted October 10, 2014 Posted October 10, 2014 Steven Price's score for the Brad Pitt WWII film Fury is up for streaming.
#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 12,384 Posted October 10, 2014 Posted October 10, 2014 Ah yes. The Oscar winner....Sigh
KK 3,313 Posted October 10, 2014 Posted October 10, 2014 The Giver is good but not the most striking. It's about subtlety here. Kind of like Snowpiercer. You wouldn't exactly recommend them to common meat and potatoes types like Stefan or Quint. No march in there. I found leaning more on the generic side. Pleasant enough, but not all that interesting. Seems like the kind of score you'd expect for the kind of film this looks like.
#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 12,384 Posted October 10, 2014 Posted October 10, 2014 You wouldn't exactly recommend them to common meat and potatoes types like Stefan or Quint. No march in there. Fuck you! You cunt faced little Bigos eating sack of dog shit!
#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 12,384 Posted October 10, 2014 Posted October 10, 2014 Oh I'm sorry. I forgot you are passing yourself of as English now!Fuck you! You cunt faced little Kendall Mint Cake eating sack of dog shit!
crocodile 9,724 Posted October 10, 2014 Posted October 10, 2014 I can stand almost anything with dignity but calling me English is way off the mark!Karol
#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 12,384 Posted October 10, 2014 Posted October 10, 2014 How dare you!. It's a great honor
crocodile 9,724 Posted October 10, 2014 Posted October 10, 2014 They invented something as appalling as sausage cassarole with mash. How can it possibly be an honour? Marmite seems like a good idea in comparison. Karol
#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 12,384 Posted October 10, 2014 Posted October 10, 2014 They invented something as appalling as sausage cassarole with mash.That sounds devine!
Wojo 2,458 Posted October 10, 2014 Posted October 10, 2014 They invented something as appalling as sausage cassarole with mash. That sounds devine!The word is divine. Not devine.
Wojo 2,458 Posted October 10, 2014 Posted October 10, 2014 Well you can't very well insist that crocodile is English if your own is a little rusty. Jason has made typos I've let slide, but that's the second devine I noticed recently you made.
#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 12,384 Posted October 10, 2014 Posted October 10, 2014 at least I know how to write aluminium correctly!
Wojo 2,458 Posted October 10, 2014 Posted October 10, 2014 No, if you have nothing else going for you in life, you can tell the ladies that you know the proper spelling and pronunciation of the element with atomic number 13. That earns a pass over size, income, and STD history and gets you straight into bed.
#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 12,384 Posted October 10, 2014 Posted October 10, 2014 Stop...bullying me!I am not worthless! I am not worthless!
Kendal_Ozzel 36 Posted October 10, 2014 Posted October 10, 2014 Fuck you! You cunt faced little Kendall Mint Cake eating sack of dog shit!It's Kendal.(Really.)
mrbellamy 8,237 Posted October 31, 2014 Posted October 31, 2014 Samples of Johann Johannsson's score for The Theory of Everything, a Stephen Hawking biopic.Sounds lovely. I really liked his score for Prisoners as well. Gnome in Plaid 1
Jonesy 55 Posted November 8, 2014 Posted November 8, 2014 5 minutes of Marco Beltrami's The Homesman.
Koray Savas 2,260 Posted November 8, 2014 Posted November 8, 2014 Damn can't listen to that while I'm at work. Looking forward to it.
Koray Savas 2,260 Posted November 9, 2014 Posted November 9, 2014 That didn't do much for me. I have a feeling this will be more traditional Americana than gritty western.
mrbellamy 8,237 Posted December 15, 2014 Posted December 15, 2014 Inherent Vice is on Spotify:https://play.spotify.com/album/3LIMxY8oQG9c70DWKe0iHN
Jay 46,241 Posted December 15, 2014 Posted December 15, 2014 Night At The Museum 3 is on iTunes:https://itunes.apple.com/us/album/night-at-museum-secret-tomb/id947997354
Gnome in Plaid 219 Posted December 16, 2014 Posted December 16, 2014 Samples of Johann Johannsson's score for The Theory of Everything, a Stephen Hawking biopic.Sounds lovely. I really liked his score for Prisoners as well. I'm not entirely sold on The Theory of Everything, probably because I'm still a little peeved Mansell got replaced, but Prisoners and McCanick (another Johannsson score) are great.
Jay 46,241 Posted January 9, 2015 Posted January 9, 2015 Clips from Beltrami's The Seventh Son Still no announcement on if there'll be an OST CD or not
KK 3,313 Posted January 9, 2015 Posted January 9, 2015 It's alright. But it would have been interesting to have heard Rahman's take on the film.
Jay 46,241 Posted January 9, 2015 Posted January 9, 2015 Are you gonna write a little something up about the film for the Last Film thread?
