The best of 2005 (the non-JW awards)


deimos

Recommended Posts

Since fortunately I'm still among the living, these are the non-JW awards categories. Since I liked the idea of the secret votes, I've thought for the first ten days you should post your nominees (up to 4 in each categoriy). After that, 4 days to pick up the winners among the final nominees in secret voting through PM. That way this ends at the same time than Justin's part. So, pick your proposal for nominees. These are my proposals:

Best composer: Danny Elfman, James Newton Howard and Dario Marianelli

Best score: Corpse Bride, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, King Kong and The Brothers Grimm

Best theme: Love theme from Corpse Bride, The factory theme from Charlie and..., Love theme from King Kong and Harry Potter's love

Best cue: Finale from Corpse Bride, Main Titles from Charlie and..., Central Park from King Kong

Best action cue: none

Best dramatic cue: Finale form Corpse Bride, Central Park form King Kong

Best comedy cue: Rita Skeeter

Best main titles / end credits / montague: Main Titles from Charlie..., End Titles I and II from Corpse Bride

Best dramatic score: none

Best comedy score: none

Best fantasy / sci-fi score: Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, Corpse Bride, King Kong and The Brothers Grimm

I've actually found it hard to find candidates. I think it's ok if one edits the proposals after posting since it might just be a matter of memory (as long as it is done in time). So, let the votes start

First of all, I'd like to thank all of those who already voted. Thanks for taking the trouble to spend some time with this "experiment".

Secondly, I will encourage those who have entered the thread and not voted, who have been a lot (159 views and 6 replies!). I think this can be a rather interesting thing and that's why I was determined to do it. We talk a lot about John's music, but there's life beyond John. And there will have to be when, you know, it happens... I think this is a good way to discover new styles, new composers and share opinions about them. Besides, it's the perfect way to know where to look in this 2006 when John's output is likely to be non-existant.

So please, guys VOTE!!

:P
