DreamTheater 131 Posted February 13, 2015 Share Posted February 13, 2015 The placement of both versions of The Healing Process was also a bit odd: why put both versions one after the other, instead of one in the main program and the other with the rest of the bonus tracks? Odd indeed.I didn't really get that either.For me, they complement each other, It's basically a 12 minute action cue. I like how one is totally different from the other, yet the foundation is the same. They could very well have been written to be one cue. That was the genius of Jerry, and in the case of Insurrection I always liked the original version the most, but it's very nice to have the revised as a warm-up.The Shadow also did this to great effect...

Koray Savas 2,251 Posted February 15, 2015 Share Posted February 15, 2015 After Earth has a couple shining moments, but as a whole it's pretty lackluster. I'm sure it fits the film. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Incanus 5,713 Posted February 15, 2015 Share Posted February 15, 2015 I am sure the sparse percussive and atmospheric textures are some kind of concept Shyamalan and JNH agreed upon but the end result outside a few cues doesn't never really come together in a satisfying way and much of the writing is awfully generic.

Koray Savas 2,251 Posted February 15, 2015 Share Posted February 15, 2015 I like Will Smith but his insistence on being in the spotlight at all times is pretentious.

Hlao-roo 389 Posted February 15, 2015 Share Posted February 15, 2015 I like Will Smith but his insistence on being in the spotlight at all times is pretentious. I mean, he turned down Django Unchained because he wasn't the main character. Come on now.I got reinvigorated after the failure of After Earth. I stopped working for a year and a half. I had to dive into why it was so important for me to have number-one movies. And I never would have looked at myself in that way. I was a guy who, when I was fifteen my girlfriend cheated on me, and I decided that if I was number one, no woman would ever cheat on me. All I have to do is make sure that no one's ever better than me and I'll have the love that my heart yearns for. And I never released that and moved into a mature way of looking at the world and my artistry and love until the failure of After Earth, when I had to accept that it's not a good source of creation.Doesn't sound that pretentious to me.

It should ended with "Buckbeaks Flight" rather than reprise every single cue from the movie! And they leave out the fun little opening of the film version from the OST. But Mischief Managed is like going through half the score again (in same performances no less) after listening to the other half of the album. Man a complete score would be most welcome. So much cool stuff left off the album. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Not Mr. Big 4,639 Posted February 16, 2015 Share Posted February 16, 2015 PoA truly deserves an expansion. As do the other HP scores.Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix Despite a couple of decent highlights (Fireworks), this score is bland and underwhelming, with the underscore often falling back on meandering glockenspiel/string tremolo parts. As good as Memoirs of a Geisha is, I'd trade it with GoF any day just so John Williams could stay with the series.The Phantom Menace I really love the theme (used to represent the prophecy I'm guessing) explored in "Talk of Podracing" and to a lesser extent "The Queen Confronts Nute and Rune". It's a shame that it wasn't explored in the two subsequent prequel scores. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
