Here's hoping. I know John Barry found it difficult trying to recreate his signature Bond sound for The Incredibles, which is why he ended up not scoring it; Could Morricone do the same sound he did for the Spaghetti Westerns?

1. This has been discussed in its own thread.

2. What the hell are you talking about? Michael Giacchino did the score for The Incredibles.

In 50 years Herrmann will be forgotten.

Huh? John Barry did not compose the music for "The Incredibles"! Michael Giacchino did! And I do believe we have a thread about this somewhere.

EDIT: Beat me to it, Koray.

Barry was approached about writing a score for The Incredibles, but he found that he could no longer write in his jazzy, Bond idiom.

I thought that he refused because he did not want to score an animated film....

That's what I thought as well.

Nope. Barry was supposed to do it but was unable (mostly due to his failing health). OHMSS was even used for the trailers, albeit the remix by Propellerheads.

Morricone do the same sound he did for the Spaghetti Westerns?

But would he score it in that style? It's supposed to be a war film.
Do you like John Williams? His early work was a little too jazzy for my taste, but when Jaws came out in '75 I really think he came into his own, commercially and artistically. The whole album has a clear, crisp sound, and an air of consummate professionalism that really gives the pieces a big boost. He's been compared to Jerry Goldsmith but I think John has a far more leitmotif-driven style of composing. In '82 John composed this, E.T., his most accomplished album to date. I think his undisputed masterpiece is "The Magic of Halloween", a theme so catchy most people don't listen to what it means. But they should, because it's not just about the pleasures of childhood and the importance of friendship, it's also a personal statement about the man himself. Hey Paul!

Yeah, sorry about that, meant to say that he ended up not writing the score at all. My bad. There's a Morricone thread? Merge if necessary, please.

Tarantino wants the whole film to be like a Spaghetti Western, sure it's just an assumption, but looking at his films, I think it's a possibility. And if I recall correctly, Tarantino has nothing but love for Morricone's westerns.

That is true (just look at Kill Bill). However I can't really picture a frenetic war movie with a Morricone western score. Then again, that probably wouldn't stop Tarantino.

Kamen was slated for "The Incredibles", but he passed away. Barry was then, but another angle is that he didn't want to be ripping off himself and being told to but rather score the film his own way.
