Just think of it like a Dentist would approach teeth..

I think that particular melodic development is also heard in the title track
No. It's shorter.
I like your post Roald 'cause I felt your anger..
A sense of indignant outrage about how film scores don't have those kind of cues anymore?
I share it, and indeed participate in this slow burning, angsty ennui. One could look to Goldsmiths' Hoosiers for similar evocation of wistful Americana (when dreams where a possible dream, hope was yes hope) but it's not the same, is it.
Truth is, there is only one Homecoming, the one John T. Williams sonically framed and expressed so piquantly in the motion picture Born on the Fourth of July.
Oh and btw, for all its Top-Gun and sounding suchly, the percussion is not synth.

. sure the Indy films have religious relics but it's not the same
Yes it is. Invoking the supernatural, ie. that which has no foundation in reality.

to sell like hot cakes?
Why would anyone wanna buy a hot cake? It would burn your fingers, then your mouth, then the piping hot filling would drip on to your pants, staining them and then seeping through to burn your crotch, at which point you'd suddenly leap up and bellow "OOOOUCH"!, further scalding your fingers so you fumble with and drop the wretched thing on the ground.
All the while being chuckled at by a pretty girl passing by who saw the whole thing...
I guess I guess A.I

Stuff them in a plastic bag and dump it (with emotion but not fanfare) on the doorstep of your local charity.
Someone will like 'em, maybe even come to love them. Surely take care of them.
Eventually they will become dissatisfied, and seek something better, then they discover John T. Williams...
*Bliss*. You be matchmaker from the heavens, the Disks get passed on, and so the cycle of enlightenment continues.

Poor A.I.
He's left in the Ghost Board wasteland
we do not speak his name...
-
Well fuck me! (not literally, of course)

Jerry's may be longer, but you know that John's is fat and thick. As someone who knows, always take thicker over longer.
Both will make you scream, but only one makes you scream in pleasure.
Ha! only an ignorant fag would make this kind of generalization.
-
I pretty much agree totally, Alex.
I think The Dark Knight is rubbish.
Watchmen is ten times the film TDK tried to be.
-
Well I'm dubious for one.
The film looks visually great as would be expected, but I suspect it will be a gigantic flop.
-
And then AI went; Woooooooooooooooooooooooooh, Bomp, Bomp!
and all was right with the world.
Aha...ahahahaha....ahahahahahahaHAHAHA!
-
Oooh, that hurts..
Especially coming from the likes of you who has written nothing but vacuous rubbish on this forum.
What are you gonna do about it? Kill me??
Fucking idiot.
-
Perhaps the difference that he is James Cameron and you are... Well, what have you achieved exactly...?
More than you ever will buddy, that's for sure.
-
I mean, Cameron would tell you that you are a pile of dog-dung, no matter how well you do your job.
That's just how he do. t's a philosophy that I admire.
And again, thats what makes him James Cameron.
-
Oh come on Roald, you know that's something that Cameron himself would say to you on set, or worse.

What, are you kidding me? The idea of a disparate consciousness being able to inhabit and leave a 'body' is as deep as it gets. It addresses the most fundamental issue of all, albeit in a way that clearly flew over your, and most all critics heads.
And I bet it spends most of its running time expoloring this idea, right? It's like saying the prequel trilogy is a mature study of human nature (which it kind tries to be ).
Karol - who can't see how is this deep at all
It all depends on your level of perception. The film is layered in that way, as are all Cameron films, and that's why James Cameron is a genius, whereas a wannabe filmmaker like Roald, is just a jealous twat throwing peanuts from the gallery.
-
As for the plot of the film receiving some criticism for obvious recycling of ideas ranging from the story of Pocahontas to obvious Greek nomenclature. I hope no one expected from this film some deeply thoughtful and ruminative, many faceted and philosophical writing or angsty explorations about human nature and existence accompanied by oh so subtle but illuminatingly heart tugging performances that lay before us the whole scope of human emotion. Everything about this film promises popcorn. Albeit flashier popcorn and visual thrills.

Avatar..what can I say but this film not only lives up to it's hype, but it kicks it firmly in the butt.
This movie will change the face of filmmaking forever. I don't even feel like seeing another 2D film theatrically after that. It's that awesome.
Cameron, you are a God.

Unless the 3D and IMAX radically change what we have seen on our computer scenes, I don't see what's so special about these special effects. I mean, I've even seen the trailer in 3D and didn't like it, although maybe that's because I don't like 3D.
I will say that the vegetation looks pretty damn superb and realistic, but the machinery and Na'vi don't look revolutionary to me.
Mate, you are such an an ignorant unwitting victim of the times you are living in that nothing would satisfy you, nothing.
-
Nobody helped Williams with a damned thing.
End of story.
-
Yeah, I thought it was gonna be about his dark side...
-
It's kinda funny that if you replace all the fun little wacky instruments Zimmer is using in that cue with his normal Strings Power Chords and percussion, it would probably sound just like a typical Zimmer score.
I can hear that, totally.

The Prince of Tides, fits the bill I think quite nicely.
And as KM mentioned, most Morricone scores.
