Saving Private Ryan - chronological playlist using the LLL release This is very much a score for the hottest part of the Summer for me, it gets a lot of play every July. I guess because that's when the film originally came out.

No, Anne Sophie, it seems your PR people handled that incident rather well.

AOTC is filled with great music. Also lack of action music doesn't equal boring. Some of my favorite material from AOTC is the quieter stuff. AOTC does have a ton of action music though, even though only a portion of it appears on the album.

The 20th anniversary edition of the World Soundtrack Awards will be celebrated in a special way. Adapted to current circumstances, this year's WSA will be an online edition, livestreamed from Kinepolis Ghent, where the ceremony itself will take place. In this way you'll have the chance to enjoy the award ceremony and concert from everywhere around the world (and in a safe and corona-proof manner). The WSAwards will be the closing event of Film Fest Ghent, and will take place on 24 October 2020. On the occasion of this 20th anniversary, we are d

It is very fitting that the clip was posted to Twitter by a Padre Ramirez. Tuco's brother, perhaps?

This! Columbo is all you need anyway.

Psst! Edison is going to win. Next!

Return to Tatooine is one of my favourites for that stunning mystery theme, it's so mesmerizing.

RETURN OF THE JEDI underrated? Not by me. Over the years, it's crept up to become my favourite Star Wars score. I've posted before, and I'll post, again: everything from BROTHER/SISTER, FATHER/SON onwards, is sublime.

Why people keeping ROTJ lower than SW, ESB and even TPM? It have so many themes incorporated: Force, Luke, Leia, Solo and the Princess, Yoda, Vader, Ewoks, Jabba, Emperor, Luke and Leia. 30 minutes of final action music is dope. For example, TPM barely have any action music, even if you count all, it still will be under 30 minutes, there are also less themes, and almost nothing happening in the middle with all of Tatooine and Coruscant stuff. And in comparison with Empire, which great, without doubt, but relies heavily on Yoda's and Vader's themes, when they are develop

Apparently, this is the last thing Morricone ever wrote: Karol

108" big enough?

I've never seen this before - a pretty neat music videos for The Hateful Eight. Karol - who always gets a good chuckle out of the fact Kylo Ren theme appears in this score (and is heard at around 8:30 into the second video)

Smash Wii U I presume? Started: Bug Fables Hollow Knight Jedi Knight: Jedi Academy Jedi: Fallen Order

This stunning tune has been stuck in my head:

The Last Emperor The first hour is its best, where Bertolucci has a field day with the ancient looming walls of the Forbidden City and the lavish parades/customs that it was once home to. I mean it's gobsmacking gorgeous, maybe even gratuitously so. But it's also where the irony and contradictions of the emperor's predicament is made most interesting. After that, it sort of becomes an empty biopic that reduces complex political history to barely characterized archetypes without saying much about any of it. Once you pass the intrigue of its first act, much of which is cultivated by

Of course not, it isn't released yet.

Don't you think it's a bit goofy in places? Some of the drama comes off as cheesy melodrama. I didn't mind the film, but I prefer In the West by a country mile.

Indiana Jones. I don't like Star Wars anymore and I never saw all of Harry Potter. But I'll probably still watch The Mandalorian, because it doesn't look like traditional SW all that much.

Doolittle.

Another thread pointing out that everyone loves the Original Star Wars Trilogy. Although The Prisoner of Azkaban is my favourite score out of these, I picked Indiana Jones.

JURASSIC PARK.

So do I!....but I’ll keep my distance from the chap in question.

I need to watch The Last Emperor again. So many, many visually incredible scenes. I bought and checked the European Blu-ray, but I didn't like the way it looked, so I refuse to watch it.

You can use it simply like a youtube video. The stream is 02:08:17 length. and it will expire tomorrow at 8:00 p.m.

You Bastard!!#!####!!!

'Watching the Skies' - Close Encounters of the Third Kind Could not find a clip of it on YouTube, seems like nobody has uploaded the complete LLL release. So hopefully you have that release to listen to it. That cue is the definition of 'too perfect for this world.'

You're forgetting Female Ghostbusters. It was truly a year of Amber Turds.

None of Morricone's scores are more popular than his Spaghetti Westerns. Once Upon A Time In America is well regarded because it is a brilliant score. Zimmer's favorite, actually.

I think ROTJ might have the best highlights of any JW score

Return to Tatooine is one of my favorite Star Wars tracks, and I'm being totally serious. Also, I find the complete score to Return of the Jedi more digestible than Empire Strikes Back, though there are definitely cues where they were designed to support the film foremost.

I'm looking forward to Season 1 of Eraserhead.

Unlike Return of the Jedi, Attack of the Clones is a really underrated score. Sure, there's not that much action music, but the quieter material is great!

I rarely care about football, but I appreciate this:

Not underrated at all. Lots of great music, as original post points out, and it is no secret to none.

TPM barely has any action music? WTF? AotC is boring? WTF? @mxsch It sounds muffled and quiet.

People don't like the Endor music? News to me.

BLM went to Berlin? Into the lion's den?

Stop watching that damn comic book crap!

Alright @bollemanneke. As usual with these, the editing isn't perfect. Just sort of threw it together. Also, feel free to ignore the second half. I sort of just did it for fun and then let the video keep going to see if it continued to kind of sync up.

You know, it occurs to me that Williams never actually said "chordal seventh!" Part of our collective confusion may stem from misremembering, and the general truthiness of the idea that old-fashioned Steineresque villain writing involved 4/2-inverted chords. The actual quote from the interview I believe we're all referring to makes mention of seventh scale degree. "We have the Nazis, you know, and the orchestra hits these 1940s dramatic chords, you know, with the seventh degree of the scale on the bottom. Which is kind of like an old signal of some evil militaristic doer."

This, too, from the small screen...

This cue perhaps fits both definitions of "esoteric"...

Its not Han's theme; and that motif isn't the Millennium Falcon theme, either! The theme in the subject of the thread is the love theme of Princess Leia and Han Solo. It applies to Han only insofar as the love story is concerned. If anything, it speaks of the relationship more from Leia's perspective: its just a variation on her own theme, really. I would argue that the timing of this suite's release, given Fisher's passing, proves more than anything that its not Han's theme. Especially seeing how Williams is writing a new theme for the character's own film. The other m
