    Forgive me, but I do find it funny when you and other are 'worried' about JW's chances :) 

     

    The last time I was in any way content with the music win was Gravity. I knew full well that it won because the film was well received, and not in any conceivable way due to the quality of the music. But it was by far my favourite score of the year so a tiny part of me was sort of happy.

     

    So I get that a lot of people want to see JW's name in lights and see him win one more Oscar, and if it happened for this film, great.

     

    Although given that the same academy decided that Santaolla's two contributions to film music represented the best of the year, make up your own mind about what that tells you when they tell you something is 'the best'. Add in the recent trend to give the award to basically anything whose accompanying film delivers a suitable political/social message and we drift further and further from the music. (I think we were still just at the 'fancy composer name' phase back then)

     

    I you think Gravity was the best score that year( better than TBT) you are in the wrong forum. Try to google " the best sound design/sound effects forums"

    Sounds like fun, but why direct your energy towards lamenting those who don't find inspiration in JW's latest score?

     

    Who knows, two weeks from now you might see me posting that I now love the score and just bought the CD - much stranger things have happened.

     

    I really hope so and if you say, after seeing the film, hearing the whole cd multiple times and its still bad, I'm totally ok. It is  not for you.  But please, give it a chance.

    Without seeing the movie? 😜🫣😱😂

    I have a very nice tradition. 

     

    When new JW score is coming, I always bought 200 bottles of beer.

     

    When the first sound clips(1.7 seconds) come out( or some photo of sheet music + transcription of the theme) I start my game.

     

    Every time I see a negative comment here of that, I will have a beer  

     

    And there are many bashers , even a competition, who is first.

     

    Always the same dudes, mentioned here, my heroes.

     

    But it works, I'm always drunk. Many weeks. 

     

    They haven't seen the film, the inspiration for the composer but they know better. I love this place.
