Jay 37,287 Posted February 1, 2012 Author Share Posted February 1, 2012 I am so THRILLED that Disney paid the choir fees for the enormous amount of choir in this score. And they paid for a 74 minute CD to boot. AND it's on a PRESSED CD and not digital-only! We are truly blessed! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wycket 36 Posted February 1, 2012 Share Posted February 1, 2012 Is track 12 a Monkey Island reference?While I don't know if its a Monkey Island reference but it can also be a Get Smart reference. As its a verbal gag that Don Adams used a lot on the show (especially early on). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jay 37,287 Posted February 1, 2012 Author Share Posted February 1, 2012 They are probably only selling the OST for a few months and then taking it out of circulation. Typical Disney moveEDIT: Or, maybe because of the huge amount of choir in the score, the negotiated a choir rate that only allowed them to press 10,000 copies or something.

ymenard 54 Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 So just to be sure, there are two youtube tracks that aren't on the soundtrack? You would need to rip those from the website? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brónach 1,301 Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 The samples are only 30 seconds long. Only got to hear around nine minutes.I hear themes for the Therns and the Tharks (maybe Helium) and some things could correspond to the Warhoon or Sab Than. I wonder if Woola has a theme.I have to admit I laughed hard at the sample of the third track, given when it's supposed to go. I read they storyboarded that even before writing it, as if it was animated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Delorean90 42 Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 My God, this is wonderful. Some of the richest, lushest stuff I've heard from Giacchino. I'm getting very excited for the film and the score both. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luke905 18 Posted February 5, 2012 Share Posted February 5, 2012 I listened to the clips releaseda few days ago (in the "long version") and continue to have high hopes for this John Carter. Will not be a masterpiece as I expected from the very first preview of a few months ago and there are several things that did not convince me.For example, track 2, Get Carter has a segment ripped from Escaping Gotha from Medal of Honor - Frontline. The subsequent exposure of the main themes, although different melodically, is accompanied in an extremely similar way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KK 3,307 Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 Andrew Stanton talks about the film and Giacchino's score:http://www.aintitcool.com/node/53561/I told him… I said, “Look there’s a sense of space opera adventure that of course comes from the DNA of STAR WARS that we are going to want to tap into for this,” because that’s what the books feel like and that’s what inspired people that went on to make other things based on their reads of the books, “so we are definitely going to want to be in that camp in that massive John Williams light motif feel” which he was dying to jump into. I said, “I also want it to feel evocative of a culture” and I kept referring to things like THE LAST TEMPTATION OF CHRIST and APOCALYPTO, just films that had scores that made you feel like there was a deeper history of culture that was behind many of these cities and people. I said “If we can find a way to weave these two things together, that would be ideal” and damned if he just didn’t knock it out of the park. I told him when I heard that score finally done, I said “I haven’t felt this way since when I bought my double LP of STAR WARS when I was a kid in 1977.”Excited for the score, still think the movie is going to be a piece of crap.

Koray Savas 2,251 Posted February 16, 2012 Share Posted February 16, 2012 I haven't seen Mission To Mars in a long time but I remember it being rather bad. Morricone went on his own and pretty much composed away from the film, so it stands out a lot. Great album, though.I enjoy Red Planet for what it is. Good action sci-fi.

Delorean90 42 Posted February 16, 2012 Share Posted February 16, 2012 Not sure why people are thinking this looks to be so sucky. Stanton did great work with his two Pixar entries, and this is a passion project for him. I find this interview to be very encouraging:http://www.comingsoon.net/news/movienews.php?id=86102Between his comments, the footage, and what we've heard of the score, I'm getting pretty pumped for this, honestly.

Jay 37,287 Posted February 21, 2012 Author Share Posted February 21, 2012 Jeff Bond has high praise about this scoreThis is my favorite score of Giacchino's. I think he does something that may be a turning point for his evolution as a composer here--he integrates the very emotionally direct writing familiar from things like Lost and the opening of Star Trek with his action music. Before this, particularly in the Mission Impossible scores and Star Trek, the action music was extremely aggressive, designed to punch through the sound mix, so it tended to exist apart from the more emotional writing at times. Here it all works more as a whole--this is the most romantic sci-fi score I've heard since Arnold's Stargate. Great stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alan 689 Posted February 23, 2012 Share Posted February 23, 2012 I can't think of another of the younger generation of composers working on mainstream film and TV at the moment that matches Giacchino. I can't wait to hear this score in full. Sounds like his biggest to date. Not that size equates to a superior score of course, but he really seems to have knocked this one out of the park.
