What dirty rags would Johnny read? Batons & Bitches Tones & Hoes Brass & Ass

Around the 6 minute mark, just divine! I don't know what it is but I'm really in the mood for that kind of diatonically tonal, spiritualistic music today.

You should photoshop some Penthouse into that JW avatar of yours.

This. It was a calculated attempt on my part to counter the Shore infestation.

It's all in fun. This is the most action this sub-forum has had in months.

PAL. One of the nastiest STDs I've ever contracted. It makes your hear everything a semitone higher.

Mwaahaha! Karol

Fanboys can't handle change. The filmmakers know that, and they'll be aware that the absence of the traditional 20th Century Fox and Lucasfilm Ltd. logos along with the Disney logo will already be putting them on thin ice. They'll want to keep a few things constant, and that'll be the 'A long time ago' opening text and crawl, and the march everyone knows by heart.

PRESUMED INNO-SYNTH?

To have at a glance lists of cues related by mood could be a valuable resource to have in a sub-forum, where they can easily be found. There will always be disagreement, but overall they may well serve as a kind of reference that could be added to and not float away as a kind of flash-in-the-pan JWfad. In fact, these threads sound a lot like old anthologies of music they used to use for accompanying silent movies, probably the best known being Erno Rapee's Motion Picture Moods, which listed some fifty categories of cue types including: - Battle - Chase - Children - Dances - Grotesque - Humorous - Joyfulness - Love-Themes - Misterioso - Monotony - Quietude - Sadness - Sinister As you can see, many of these categories correspond to the "most"-type threads we have here. I suggest we start a sub-forum that incorporates the threads and allows for new ones to be started on other moods, perhaps along the lines suggested here.

This is just more expected hypocrisy and a reminder of why The Oscars are a load of rubbish. Broughton wrote a song for an indie film which nobody had heard and which lacked the massive hype and marketing which the other songs have enjoyed, so he sent some emails in an attempt to get his song noticed. So what. Blegh

So it's a movie about midichlorians?

Lukas Kendall again

DAYS OF THE HEAVEN is his masterpiece, IMO.

"Banning Back Home" is ABSOLUTELY the best track on "Hook". No, I'm not joking! absolutely and I hate Hook with a passion, shitty shitty movie, and the score is not worth a hell of a lot to me. but I do love that track

They didn't know there'd be more than one at the time.

For me, TREE OF LIFE was comparable to a seminar in university. Sometimes the most exciting topic would become a horrible snoozer because the prof doing it just was a bad teacher/entertainer whatever, sometimes a seminar about quantum physics was engaging like hell for six months because the prof just was a brilliant teacher/storytelller. With Malick, it's the same. He seems just not interested to let people understand what he's after and just throws these tangled strains of thought at the screen as if they would mean anything though i'm not sure if even he knows. He can make stuff like this, of course, i just think it's a waste of time for most people who see it and thus, i don't see much point in working your ass off two or three years on a movie most people couldn't possibly get a grasp on (or care much).

I've watched The Tree of Life twice. While I adore it visually, it still couldn't affect me emotionally. It also felt like having a loose construction. Like bits here and there sticked together... The Thin Red Line affects me very much (although the first time I saw it at the cinema I was bored, when i saw it afterwards in home video, I thought [and I still do] it's a masterpiece)

Photoshop (Not free) GIMP (Free, though it runs slow sometimes) I cannot think of any others.

Daa-da-da-daa-da-da-daa...da-da-daa!
