Composers Who Should Be Working in Film

You can hear the other movements linked to it, as well as his crazy and awesome Metropolis Symphony. Film music is definitely one of his influences, but I feel that his voice would bring incredible life to films. He seems suited to it, and yet he hasn't done any films. Listen to the second movement for a very cinematic piece that well conveys a weary journey. I'd love for him to work in film.

That said, I would only want Ticheli (or any good composer) to be involved in film music if given a decent amount of freedom. I have a feeling that a lot of these people would end up as MV clones, given that even talented film composers with very strong reputations in film music are being forced to transition (Alan Silvestri, James Newton Howard, etc.).
1. Nightwatch/Killer By Night - Johnny Williams and Quincy Jones 2. Diamond Head/Gone with the Wave - Johnny Williams/Lalo Schifrin 3. Mass - Leonard Bernstein 4. Bernstein with the New York Philharmonic - Leonard Bernstein

Joris De Man wrote a fantastic score for Killzone 2, but his work on 3 was a bit more mundane and generic. Can't blame him though, the game is fairly poor. Regardless, I'd like to see him score to film. There was an interview with him back when 2 was coming out, and he discussed how he'd love to but there's just no desire on the studio end to give younger unknowns a chance.
Then there's the obvious Bear McCreary. For him though it's only a matter of when, not if.
In 50 years Herrmann will be forgotten.

I think he'll score G.I. Joe: Retaliation since he and John Chu have worked on several movies before.

I'd like to see Metallica score a film. Maybe a western.

See, film music has a future as long as someone cares about hiring a good composer.

I'd like to hear Frank Ticheli to dabble in film music. This particular piece, as well as many written by Frank Ticheli, are meant to be played by high school bands, etc., but they are really brilliantly crafted (at least, the ones I've heard). I also think his ability to work within limitations (level of difficulty) would allow his transfer to film music to be easier than it might be for many. He's not the type of composer with an ego too big to collaborate.

John Williams sucks, he doesn't write with a quill pen, there is no emotion in pencil music ! Purcell is the man !Among all the things I have done in my short and pitiful life, becoming an inside joke on JWFAN is the one I'm the least proud of.

Yeah, a lot of those concert band composers have some nice melodic ideas. I really liked playing this one by Ticheli in high school:
