Considering that Ricard, the founder of this Forum and JWFAN.NET is Member # 3, and Andreas is 2.

But who is number 1?


It's me.

Williams fans who don't care about anything beyond Star Wars, Superman, Harry Potter and Spielberg sci-fi/genre.

That would be me. I've never listened to a Williams score that wasn't part of one of these franchises. And I don't care.

In fact, aside from when I actually watched the movies, the only soundtracks of William's I have listened to are from SW, Potter, and Indy.

While I own every post 1970 Williams album ever released ,I would define myself as "who cares more" about SW,Superman ,Harry Potter and Spielberg adventure genre

But that is an informed opinion after countless hours of listening. Also that Williams non celebratory fanfare concert music isn't very good.

It's wonderful that you do not care. I have an area on my mantle I'd love to place you on. No, second thoughts I'll give you to my dog. No wait, the junkyard would be the perfect place actually. My dog doesn't need crap in his teeth after all. :P

You know, I usually don't find fanboys very annoying, probably because I am too much one myself. I like exuberance.

Menken deserved all the Oscars he won (except 1990 and 1992, when Hook and LC should've won), plus one for The Hunchback of Notre Dame. JW deserved waaaay more than 8, so it is unfair that Menken has more Oscars than JW, but he definetly deserves them all.

The scores for The Little Mermaid, Beauty and the Beast and Aladdin are excellent, with Aladdin in particular being a personal favorite for an animated movie. I don't care who may have deserved the Academy Award ahead of him; that aspect is irrelevant. I'm no "Alan Menken defender", far from it, and why need one be anyway? He's a very good composer and the later traditional Disney animations benefited greatly from his contributions.

Ennio Morricone blows Menken out of the water, yet he never received a single Oscar for one of his many many film scores. In contrast, Alan Menken has lots of Oscars, but that doesn't automatically mean I should dislike the man and his work, because that would be stupid and pointless. Pfft... there is no need to defend the man in the first place.
