Translation... we thought it would be cute to make this in black and white, but not enough people watched it, so now we're trying it in color?

[Finished] Chamber of Secrets Thematic and Originality Analysis
Smeltington replied to Holko's topic in JOHN WILLIAMS
I love it!! Thank you! Now I have no excuse not to make a new edit of this score, which I think would mean I'd listen to it more often.- 45 replies

Smeltington replied to Holko's topic in JOHN WILLIAMS
Fascinating! Would you consider sharing this with timestamps? Why oh why couldn't there be a bunch of completely new tracks, and a bunch of completely rehashed tracks, so we could make a perfect edit of just the new material?? Almost every track is contaminated!- 45 replies

Star Wars: The Story in Music (2023 concert debuts new live pieces)
Smeltington replied to Pat_S's topic in JOHN WILLIAMS
Dude, yeah that would be really cool! Now that they've put this whole presentation together and are playing it several times. And maybe more orchestras will pick it up in years to come, as it's going to be a good moneymaker for them. I would love if the BSO would release an album. Hopefully with no narration though! -
Star Wars: The Story in Music (2023 concert debuts new live pieces)
Smeltington replied to Pat_S's topic in JOHN WILLIAMS
Yes! I'm excited for this weekend, going to both performances. -
This is one of those times that reminds us we're different. Normal people were semi interested in the movie; most never gave a thought to the score itself; if they did, they would be ok to check it out on streaming. This is the only place I can go where people give a shit that there's a CD and are excited to get it. Never change JWFan!

James Horner's WILLOW (1988) - NEW! 2022 2-CD Intrada Records
Smeltington replied to Jay's topic in General Discussion
Well, the music is composed with the dialogue in mind, so it seems possible. -
I haven't seen or heard Angela's Ashes yet, so I didn't vote, but I agree Book Thief is great, and easy to overlook. It's very understated.

I love the early part but not so much the later parts, and I also dislike March of the Villains. But because of that, I still haven't listened to the score enough to really sink my teeth into it. I do listen to the main theme and the love theme a lot, which are two of his best concert arrangements ever. The Krypton tracks, Trip to Earth, Fortress of Solitude, and the Flying Sequence are highlights too. I've considered condensing the score down to get myself to listen to it more, but that seems sacrilegious, so we'll see.
