I ordered the non-deluxe version last month. Blindly figuring my way through creating an account and ordering on Japanese Amazon was fun.

Done and done.

He's trying to make a joke about emo kids. But emo kids aren't the same as goth kids.

I didn't mind it as much in The Hobbit because the sets themselves were really cool. Great production design. I think I had this discussion before with someone about Hook, but I actually like the heightened reality of obvious sets. Guess it's why I enjoy classic films a lot.
I'm not saying I want every movie to be like that or anything. But yeah, I don't enjoy CGI sets very much.

Oh fuck.
Well, @Jay's first sentence got me very excited, and then dawned on me it's just a "one day this will happen" situation. I just assumed that. But yeah hopefully it's sooner rather than later of course.

The Lion King remake is gonna be such a piece of shit.

Nah, I'm ready for McCreary to graduate to big movies full time.
I'd be fine if he composed the theme and "Bear McCreary" (wink wink) did the episodic underscore.

The Age of Innocence - Elmer Bernstein
Endlessly grateful to Martin Scorsese for hiring Bernstein for this. My favorite of his late-period scores.
I mean for pete's sake, this is criminally beautiful. Fantastic melody, aching arrangement.
And shout-out to the great performance of the theme on the Williams/Perlman Cinema Serenade release (which I only discovered last year!)

I am Disco Stu, and Disco Stu is definitely not me. Just a stupid internet alias I chose 15 years ago because I like The Simpsons. Whenever anyone makes some reference to me being into disco music, I get confused for a second and then realize they think my name is because I love disco.
Now, I do enjoy a lot of disco music but it's not any kind of enthusiasm or whatever.

Man, I really wish it had just been the 2 films.

I think Lincoln will stick around in the US but almost more for the idea of it being a great movie. Nobody really loves watching it but it looks and feels like an American masterpiece and people will admire its intellect and craftsmanship impersonally and reverentially, because it's Spielberg and Day-Lewis taking on this iconic figure and in a pretty definitive way. Any future biopics about American presidents will be compared to it, US politicians will reference it in their speeches with a near-religious tone like Hillary, while most American citizens will only really remember seeing Lincoln in 8th grade history and being bored, but they'll all have seen it!
Actually Lincoln is one of my favorite movies ever made and I love watching it. I think it's a masterpiece, not just the idea of it, but the flawless script, wonderful performances, and rich themes (and duh, my favorite Williams "Americana" score).
I put it has my #3 movie of this decade so far:

It's by far the worst, most tiresome Disney trend. I'm mostly on board with Pixar, Disney Animation, Lucasfilm, and Marvel. But this line of remakes of their animated classics is fucking awful.
At best, the movie will be well-made but pointless (Cinderella) and at worst a boring abomination (Jungle Book).

@TrekMovie Hi! This recording session was a showcase for CBS indeed. But nothing can be said at this time

As I understand it, that's no confirmation he'll work on the show. It's just an "application" to be the composer of the show.
I hope he doesn't get it. Sounded generic to me.

I downloaded the unofficial release version to see. it is legit.
Ah I see what you mean now. You were talking about two separate things. The restored version somebody made from a print and Lucasfilm has a 4k restoration. I gotcha.

Well that would be a fun pickle, did you guys here about the restored version of A New Hope that leaked online? Not the Unspecialized version someone payed a lot of money found a original print and restored it! They are currently working on a 4K restoration!
This seems like you misheard a real news story.
Lucasfilm has apparently, maybe a "restored"/"remastered"/whatever 4k transfer of the original film. So it wasn't just some person. And it hasn't leaked online, Gareth Edwards just let it slip in an interview.

Star Trek Discovery composer and a clip of his main theme for the show
Never heard of him.

Very happy for you @mstrox that everything has turned out great for you and your family.
My daughter was born at 9 lbs, 7 oz. and my wife birthed her naturally with no drugs. Women are definitely tougher than we are!
Anyway, I'm having a son! Very excited. Pregnancy is very normal and there's definitely only one baby in there!
