DreamTheater 131 Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 It does open up when you revisit it. At first, I thought it was too dense and impenetrable. But it starts to make sense after some time spent with it.KarolIt really does. Too dense at first yeah, but through the thickness there's structure to be found. Some riveting action cues as well, reminding me of early Horner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unlucky Bastard 7,782 Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 I recently listened to Alien 3. There's some good material missing from this OST. Was the movie cursed? First it was development hell, a tumultuous production, the director giving up, and now supposedly the session masters have been damaged. Did someone leave them in a mouldy cellar?

crocodile 7,998 Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 Wolf Totem by James HornerHere's my modest review.Karol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crocodile 7,998 Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 The Amazing Spider-Man by James Horner. I've not heard it in quite a while. Still think James did an excellent job on this. I'm not a particular fan of the synths/orchestra combo, even if they're mixed very well together. However, where the score exceeds is with the character work, something often overlooked in these types of film, and with main theme that's expertly developed (shocking that it doesn't happen more often these days).Karol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marian Schedenig 8,191 Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 This might be seen as sort of heresy, but Star Trek V is probably now my favorite score of the whole series Only mild heresy. I've been playing Mancini's Lifeforce quite a bit. I'd remembered it having a cool title theme for years, but never picked it up, then recently grabbed it in SAE's 50% used sale. Great stuff. I wonder if Goldsmith consciously lifted Carlson's Story for Hollow Man. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jay 37,336 Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 Hans Zimmer - Interstellar (everything)Listened to the entire FYC, and all the album material that isn't on that. almost 3 hours or so of stuff. There's a nice 60 minutes of score here, no question. Shame none of the released versions are anything like a program of highlights I would choose.Brian Tyler - Now You See MeThis needs a proper C&C release on a physical CD Wolf Totem by James Horner Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crocodile 7,998 Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 Yeah, I think every single person needs to decide what they want on their Interstellar listening programme. Complete thing is not the best version at all. I made a semi-chronological playlist out of the Illuminated Star Projection Edition and got also a various short programmes as well (the OST, vinyl and my own abbreviated one). Depending on mood.Karol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jay 37,336 Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 The problem with the FYC is it's missing the final 2 cues of the score. You can't just end everything with Quantifiable Connection. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dixon Hill 4,234 Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 What I ended up doing was taking the film-ending version of What Happens Now? and a second rip of Where We're Going and ending the FYC with those. Sometimes I want to listen to that, sometimes I go for the box set album (the second disc of which I've also rearranged a bit).The FYC sound is pretty crummy though, especially compared to a polished Meyerson album.

I was told that the plot of the film is that Die Antwood kidnap Chappie and turn him into a gansgter so they can rob people. I thought they were in this just because they were South African, but they actually play themselves, not fictional characters. So stupid. I'm not seeing this anymore.

Did it a bit of research, and the song is Cookie Thumper by Die Antwood, about a schoolgirl who falls in love with a gang member, and promises that when he's released from prison, she'll let him do her up the arse.

Dixon Hill 4,234 Posted March 6, 2015 Share Posted March 6, 2015 Well I've been trying to find the cue that starts at 6:45 for a long time now after hearing it in Cosmos.

Jay 37,336 Posted March 6, 2015 Share Posted March 6, 2015 Michael Giacchino - Jupiter AsendingLoving this so much more, now that I've seen the film. The OST is a very well made summation of the score. I don't think its too long at all. And it has a nice narrative flow. Good stuff.Danny Elfman - DarkmanWow. I had only heard the suite on Music For A Darkened Theater before, now I'm checking out the OST. How have I not been listening to this for all these years? What a cool cousin score to Elfman's Batman! Awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
