“Travesty”? Don’t you think you’re overstating your case just a bit? They are, in fact, faithful adaptions. That’s indisputable. Whether you think that’s good or bad is another question. Read what Spielberg planned to do with Harry Potter and maybe you’ll appreciate what Columbus did a bit more. While in general I share your opinion that the first two films were a little bland, and perhaps too literal, I think this approach early on was probably the right one. It got the hard core fans on board, which is the first thing they needed to do. And by hewing so closely to the books initially, I think it gave them the credibility, (with both Rowling and the fans), & freedom to take more liberties with the material later.

Not all tracks on the OST are alternates. THE MEETING IN THE CAVE, THE BAT ATTACK, DRACULA'S DEATH, END TITLES are all film versions. NB DRACULA'S DEATH is edited for the OST, for those who've never seen the film.

I know I could have played a bit with the EQ on this... but decided to leave it as it was. The guy from who I got the rip seemed to have a top notch turntable. I only wanted to prove that the sound of the Varese CD was crap. Done. Now a professional will work on the case and manage to release a proper CD version... I hope.

As soon as I saw this thread title, before I even clicked on it, I knew this comment was inevitable. I just wasn't expecting it to be the first comment.

Ant-man and the Wasp So much fun! Go see it if all you’re looking for is a great time at the movies. Great humor, a surprisingly compelling villain, and standout acting; the chemistry between Rudd and Lilly practically leaps off the screen. I had my occasionally nitpicks with the movie, but overall, it’s a noticeable improvement over its predecessor, and just a really funny and likable addition to the MCU. I feel really invested in these characters, and I can’t wait to see more of them. **** and 1/2 out of *****

Yeah, never really understood the criticism there. The impact of Voldemort's death wasn't lessened by the way they portrayed it in the films, the look on Fiennes' face as he dies is actually quite powerful - the cruel, soulless being had tears in his eyes as if for one last fleeting moment before the end he was human again.

Does this really need explaining?

@Chen G. I didn't say all book-film adaptations required reading the source material, but I believe the films of the Potter series benefit from reading the books they're based off, that's all I was suggesting! The Columbus films are great at laying a good solid foundation on which the framework of the series was built. After seeing Columbus's other works (not counting Home Alone) I think it was a stroke of magic and coincidence that the first two films worked out so well. Percy Jackson is a mess!

That last movie undercuts pretty much every core theme of the goddamn series. It's an awful mess of a movie even ignoring that.

The title is pretty self-explanatory. But I'll clarify a couple of things: - The expanded releases don't count. - Your ranking of the scores themselves is irrelevant. This is about their representation on their respective OSTs. - In the case of TESB, we'll speak of the 2-LP program (but you can rank the shorter one if you want). - I'll personally forego discussing sound and mixing issues in my list, as I'm only familiar with the OT original albums from the recent reissues, which obviously don't accurately reflect the sound of the original releases. But feel free to include analysis of that aspect if you want. - You can include the non-JW SW scores if you want (I chose not to, since I'm still familiarising myself with SOLO). Anyway, my own choices best to worst: 1. THE FORCE AWAKENS + Almost everything important is present (save for "The Resistance", the imperial march fragment, and the Falcon crash landing cue) + Well judged near-chronological (and the deviations are well-judged) track order. 2. STAR WARS (A New Hope) + Almost everything important - and almost all music, for that matter - is present (Important omissions: the Mos Eisley arrival; the final battle intro cue) + The suite assemblies are absolutely sublime (particularly "The Rescue of the Princess" and "The Last Battle") - Most of the big rebel fanfare renditions are concentrated on the first half of the album, making it a bit lopsided "blows it's load too soon" experience. 3. ATTACK OF THE CLONES + Most highlights are present (Missing mainly: Anakin's confession music; Carrying Shmi home + the funeral; The heroic statement of Yoda's theme at the end) + Well judged near-chronological (and the deviations are well-judged) track order. - The development of the B(or C?)-section of the love theme (the part resembling Dies Irae) is poorly represented due to the Anakin's confession cue being omitted. 4. THE EMPIRE STRIKES BACK + While many highlights are not present ("Carbon Freeze" is sure an odd omission, and there's a LOT more...), it's nonetheless a generous amount of music, with all the themes well represented. - Side 4 makes no musical sense whatsoever in it's sequencing, and suffers as an album climax due to having no action tracks in it. 5. THE LAST JEDI + Well judged near-chronological (and the deviations are well-judged) track order. + Thematic material pretty well represented... - ...save for the desperation motif being only barely present. [The more unsatisfying ones are below:] 6. THE PHANTOM MENACE + Some of the suite assemblies are great, especially the bit where the creepy voices seque into the Darth Sidious theme (track 14) + It mostly flows well as a listening experience (except in the middle, where it meanders) - Why is the Coruscant arrival music included twice? - Pointless identical repetition of concert suites (end credits) instead of using the space to include more unique music - Missing thematic material (Qui-Gon's theme) - "The Tide Turns" is omitted (omitting your action climax cue is rarely a good thing) - Lots of missing highlights in general, much of it more important than some of what was included 7. REVENGE OF THE SITH + [Nothing stands out in particular, save for the music being good] - Many omitted highlights, much of it more important than some of what was included. - The needle-dropped and out-of-place Throne Room segment (see the previous point also) - Missing thematic material (the theme introduced in "Another Happy Landing") - Nonsensical (and often awkward) edits and microedits. - Insane and nonsensical sequencing that flows poorly. 8. RETURN OF THE JEDI + The sequencing isn't terrible, I guess... - Missing so much important music in general. - Pointless identical repetition of concert suites (end credits) instead of using the space to include more unique music (Personally, I would have edited the end credits bookends into a continuous cue, especially considering the short running time allotted to representing this music)

They mostly don't, as it's basically impossible without ridiculous witholding-from-the-audience twists a la Fight Club. We definitely know Stevens' POV throughout the film, but the film is able to show without spelling it out how his way of looking at the world is not shared by everyone around him. It sort of cleverly is able to indicate how he would tell the story (which he does in the novel) while also keeping a third person view of the action. I don't know how to explain it.

Miguel let me restore his Promo LP of Mr Chips. Great alt tracks, not on the 3-CD...

You really don't get SW, do you? Karol

You imagine it.

are you serious?!

Mega bump, but here it is: I rescored the Shin Godzilla Atomic Breath scene with Michael Giacchino's music from Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom. I think it fits really well. Bear in mind this was also an experiment at rebuilding the SFX field (the explosions are jarring in Godzilla films because there are only ever three sounds they use and they're often used in quick succession) https://drive.google.com/file/d/1iTvsCgRPEj1Sf5E0KaxWTBbMBt5_b0aR/view?usp=sharing

Incredibles 2 - almost as much fun as the original (after I moved away from the family seemingly treating the cinema as some sort of fucking indoor picnic area, that is. It was an 11:00 am screening, couldn't they have had breakfast before turning up? GAH).

Exactly this. I in fact do. I also love Barry, Goldsmith, Bernstein, Poledouris, Silvestri and others without feeling the need to rank or compare them to one another.

What about tomorrow?

Gives "I Left My Heart in San Francisco" a whole new meaning!

Beautiful film but almost nobody saw it. It's probably too slow and uneventful for most people. I loved every second of it but I still have to see it a second time to see if it holds up. The last thing Andrew Dominik has done is directing a couple of episodes of David Fincher's Manhunter.

Just a bunch of friggin kids books/movies.

Luke would never throw away his old lightsaber like that! He just wouldn't!

And how do these, very specific plot elements undercut the narrative of any of the books, much less the entire series? Which is exactly why I'm cutting the first film a lot of slack - the second film, not so much.

Yates is no Kubrick - he had enough skill and vision to make a masterpiece out of anything. HP8 goes far enough to completely reverse core themes of the book series in favour of empty, illogical (in-universe) visual spectacle. The previous two Yates films "mess with" the material that "surrounds the core" by throwing the core (like essential plot setup) out at times and filling in pointless shit, then later scrambling to somehow make sense of the mess they created.

That's ok; I'd never heard of it, before 1979.

Why not watch DIE HARD, a real Christmas-in-July treat?

I think I recall he only gave a list of takes and editing instructions, but wasn't involved in the actual editing - which shows. Don't know if that's enough for Bespin's criteria.

Today, I will make a little "hommage" to the work of Mike Matessino. Here's all the album he was involved regarding the mix, the edit or the mastering.

BDH seems more marryable than EW.

Great haul-just 13 bucks and brand spankin' new!

Well, I certainly havn't forgotten No Country For Old Men. Disturbing, provoking, about as close to cinematic perfection as you can get. Not quite there, though. There's a circa 2004 Volvo semi-truck visible in one scene.

I was referring to Bryce Dallas Howard, you nincompoop.

I think Last Jedi will be remembered in my wet dreams. Actually, no, not even that. My body knows what it really wants.

But three rights make a left!

I'm typically not much of a CD collector, but I got these used at my local 2nd & Charles for $18. All three were practically new and in great condition. Good bargain!

Otis, have you fed Chen G. to the babies? Otis, feed Chen G. to the babies.

I am super excited to get official complete releases for both scores, but I will admit I will be editing them down because I don't think either one plays best in complete form. The Goldsmith is AMAZING...but about halfway through it hits a more boring patch of samey suspense/horror music...whether Jerry started to not care about the project as much or that's just what the film called for in those places, I find the music less engaging than the amazing first half and finale, so I'll probably be editing out about 25 minutes or so there. Silvestri's score is not as good, IMO. He wrote some wonderful themes but in terms of varying and developing them he just...doesn't, enough for me. I know few can compare with Goldsmith in this regard, but Silvestri in particular is just like, "here's my big over the top heroic action theme again, huzzah!" That said, it IS a very fun theme, but for me Silvestri's best themes are the one in Sandcastles and this love theme which is very sweeping and Golden-Agey. We should get more variations of both of those themes on this expansion (including the great end credits cue) which is what I'm most excited about. Sadly, I find Silvestri's horror/suspense music much less engaging than Goldsmith's so I'll be editing out most of that too. But the existing albums for both leave off enough highlights that we really needed these complete editions to work from in whittling down the best possible albums. Yavar

My guess is still HP 1-3.

No, just the Asgard, the Nox and the Ancients - the builders of the Stargates.

I mean we’re all here posting on a forum devoted to a niche of a niche of a niche. Any teasing is inherently ironic

I predict that Rey will make love to her reflection. Because Daisy Ridley is just that beautiful.

Blame Google!

I couldn't believe the de-aging CGI in Ant-Man and the Wasp honestly. Both Michael Douglas and Michelle Pfeiffer looked precisely like they did in the 1980s, and with no uncanny valley at all. My eye was completely tricked. That stuff has come a long way.

Oh, sure. My issue is with the concept that to romanticise a heroine is anathema, as if it degrades the character in some esoteric way. Not that I'm a huge fan, but Wonder Woman was a good film (by a woman director), with a good female lead, who was played by a model, and walked around in a mini-skirt and corset and had a romantic relationship in the film. Rey, on the other hand...

Then you can rename Star Wars "The Planets Suite Revisited" while you're at it.

In chronological order: The Towering Inferno (opening music) Last 30 minutes or so of CE3K 1941 March The Asteroid Field Sail Barge Assault (the Force Theme version) The Broken Bridge (from Temple of Doom) Indy's Very First Adventure Dennis Steals the Embryo (Jurassic Park) Journey through the Ice (Part 1) (From A.I.) Zam the Assassin Bonus: Defending the Flag from "Not With My Wife, You Don't!"

Or maybe he killed someone during the recording sessions, which can be faintly heard in the background of the recording, and he doesn't want MM to recover this dark detail of his past during remastering.
