I suspect one reason why Rey's Theme appears so "fresh" (whatever that word means in this context) to some people is that it is very new, released only last year, as opposed to AtS, which was released 14 years ago!
 
I love both themes, don't get me wrong, but the gorgeously haunting and heartbreakingly tragic "Across the Stars," slightly over the top and theatrical, is an instant classic. After 14 years, I still don't tire of it, and I'm still impressed by it. The performance from LSO is second to none.
 
 

Same here. Absolutely no competiton. "Across the Stars" all the way -- the most unashamedly romantic and glorious theme this side of "Tara's Theme" from GONE WITH THE WIND. I'm rather shocked to see "Rey's Theme" so far ahead in the polls. It's a fine theme, don't get me wrong, but it's not even in my Top 10 in the last 10 years.

"The guy I ripped off while all you saps ate it up and handed over your hard-earned for!"

I agree that getting to see the Hook deleted scenes would be amazing, and would like the see an extended version with them put back in.
 
Thanks for the tip about the 25th anniversary edition Blu Ray!

Well, to be honest, Jurassic Park III is indeed a piece of shit movie.

I rather like JP3 the movie, but aside from that, I agree. I've never really been drawn that much to Giacchino's score outside of the major highlights, whereas Davis' score is full of awesome moments. Certainly I think he's the better action composer, although I think Giacchino's main theme is better.
 
Now if Davis had come back for JW, that would've been potentially awesome in my book.
 
Hence:
 
JP: *****
TLW: *****
JP3: ****
JW: ***

I would say essentially the same, but reverse JP3 with JW. Giacchino wrote some fantastic music, but Don Davis composing was so sublime to JP3, which is more than the pos movie deserved. 

Both scores deserve 5 stars, obviously. 
 
They're different, though, because the movies are different

Well, to hear Michael's score isn't great is disappointing, but not shocking. He did only have about 2 months to compose and conduct, after all.

Since Ayer is directing Gotham Sirens or whatever, I fully expect Catwoman to have a tattoo on her forehead that says "Pussy."

This is one of the best releases of a score ever, many thanks to LLLR!

Okay, so on Wookiepedia, for "Enter, Lord Vader" apparently there is "A rendition of Anakin's "B-theme", first heard in Episode I, and associated with Shmi's Theme, plays after the opening percussion". Where in the score for TPM can this be heard? Any help would be appreciated, thanks!

Yeah
Spider-Man 3 isn't anywhere near as awful as people make it out to be.

"You bred Raptors?"
"The trouble with Dennis"
Untitled JP cue
Sirius Rescue
The T-Rex / High Hide
The micro-edited out portion of The never-feast
Dark Dreams- (POA)
Saving Sarah - full cue
Mostly minor cues, but still very effective ones at that.

Yeah, cause crying when :
Your Uncle is shot
Your best friend is killed
The love of your life dumps you
You face hardships in your family life
= bad
Rather have Spider-Man crying than doing that bullshit wailing Garfield did in TASM. Franco was fine, and one of the best things about SM3. Same goes for Dafoe. But hey, maybe some people like pointless/ soulless beat for beat remakes with an uninteresting villain.

I like it. t's much better than that Brand New Day shit that was out a few years ago

Hell no, Spider-Man is still great, and SM2 remains in the top 5 best superhero movies ever. Spider-Man 3 simply falls in the good but not great category.

Russds, for me, the tracks that really work are :
(TDKR)
Gotham's Reckoning
Bane Suite
Imagine The Fire
The Fire Rises
Why do we Fall?
TDK
Agent of Chaos
Introduce a little Anarchy
BB
Myotis
Molossus

Yeah, I've been giving it alot of re-listens, and it's alot more enjoyable. I think it's a solid 4 star effort, but still nowhere near as good as Arnold's/Barry's work.

Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire - Patrick Doyle
I find his solo entry into the Potter series to be ridiculously underrated. His voldemort theme is awesome, and something I wish Desplat/Hooper had included in the sequels, the trwizarding task cues are triumphant, and epic, without pushing it; and Harry In Winter is still one of the best cues of the series.

Addams Family & Addams Family Values. (Marc Shaiman)
I'd love to see LLL do a expanded / complete release of these scores. I find these to be underrated works for Shaiman.

Quantum of Solace
I am excited to hear what newman does for skyfall, but damnit I will miss david arnold.
