  1. In terms of Concorde vs. DCC, I actually prefer some tracks from either version depending on the different mixes. Most of the tracks sound more natural on the DCC version, and I really notice the pitch problems in "The Map Room: Dawn". Speaking of that track, I think the first few seconds when Indiana Jones lowers himself into the map room is the best part of the whole score. The theme for the Ark never sounded better. It's brief, but for whatever reason I consider that one of the top JW moments.
  2. Yes. "When You Wish Upon a Star" sounds most magical when under the baton of JW. Truly.
  3. I barely listen to this, but I love the theme. The ending of the credits on the CE with the chorus doing the theme may be the best part of the score.
  4. I listen to the Anthology because it sounds better to me, most of the time. I also like having a breather between tracks like the Hoth battle.
  5. I fell asleep towards the end of Duel last night. Pretty good flick.
  6. Yeah but the whole logo is on screen. Here, it says "Tury Poti" or something. It looks like some fanart where they cropped the movie poster and couldn't properly fit the logo.
  7. Yeah but the full title isn't even on there. It'd be like if ToD's opening title said "NDIANA JON". They look like weird CGI characters from a Robert Zemeckis movie.
  8. I'm going. Never been before, but what's the situation with seating? Are they provided or do you have to rent lawn chairs?
  9. What's the difference between the Theme from Sabrina and the reprise? The reprise is longer, but why? Is it the complete definitive piece?
  10. I was watching this last night on TV. There's a shot of the Reliant in the nebula where it comes out of a cloud and you actually see it subtly coming through in such a natural way. I found it to be a fairly impressive and well-done special effect for the time. Except for Chekov's fake ear (which never looked good), I prefer the classic effects to the CGI of the new Star Trek. This one and First Contact have the best SFX.
  11. I prefer Chris Columbus' movies to the shrunken heads, muted/filtered colors and generally poor adaptations that followed.
  12. He's right. A.I. is not in the same league. Jaws is a seminal work from JW's prime that neither A.I. or anything else released after that era can touch.
  13. The beginning of "The Pier Incident" when Brody is reading up on sharks is so awesome.
  14. I saw this movie as a kid and I loved it. I've found that most people of that generation look back on it fondly, while those of the earlier generation think it sucks, and today's generation have never heard of it.
  15. I've seen people here praise the album presentation of Hook, but it's a letdown for me. I hate not having the film version of "The Flight to Neverland" (the alternate on album is awful in comparison), "The Never-Feast" film version, the music when Peter goes into the nursery and looks at the wallpaper and the complete end battle. Frankly, all of it is sorely needed and this thing is long overdue for complete score.
  16. 5 star score. It's one of the best, sometimes I think it IS the best. The movie is underrated.
  17. "Sea Attack Number One" is one of JW's most brilliant cues. I'm thinking specifically of when they start to scurry around the decks after the shark first passes. I sing this as though the notes are lyrics. Obviously, this isn't normal, but this is JW we're talking about here.
  18. All I can think of now when I hear the JP Theme are those lyrics some guy on the internet came up with.
  19. My favorite part of this score is the fanfare when the cars enter the gate. Williams must have liked that part too, since he put it in TLW and both were featured on the albums.
  20. Nobody mention the cardboard dinorama? Who needs the music when you can have a blast playing with the packaging.
