[Close Encounters of the Third Kind vs. Superman vs. Hook]

This is a tough one, I love all 3 films, and scores equally. They all give me goosebumps and a great time. But if I have to pick on to take with me to a deserted island:

Score: Superman: thrills, emotion, themes, all of them in abundance. Classic Williams which can't be beaten.

Movie: CE3K: because of the sci-fi theme, many spine-tingling moments, Spielberg's direction, his attention to the characters, and the score of course.

RIP Joel... may you have 'First Contact' with your dad up there.

[La-La Land Records' HOOK (2CD Expanded) Discussion thread]

I've just now registered here (bit of a lurker until now) to let everyone know I've done my best to correct the volume issues on 'The Ultimate War'. Something LLL should have done to begin with.

Now I don't consider myself a sound editor, but on a personal basis I've been doing this for a while now, and though it was not easy to get right, it was a real pleasure, with music of this magnitude. And it turned out pretty well, if I do say so myself.

If anyone would be interested in hearing it, feel free to PM me.

On top of that I've done a complete and chronological overhaul (as much as possible) of the entire score.
