Has anyone talked about the green milk?

This score feels more like a SW score than TFA. Even with the limited amount of new themes, this is rewarding.

I've been reading you a lot and I'm surprised no one mentionned a possible call back to the "Plagueis theme" in revisiting Snoke
Is it just me or... ?
It's not much of a new thing. It happened on TFA. People even speculated that the two characters were connected to each other.

The empire of sun, Hook, Catch me if you can and E.T.

Just obvious and well-known things. Except for "The Mask of Zorro".

All the theories died with this film, except for the romantic expectations of the 15 year old girls.

Well, the spoilers that have come to me induce that the only exciting thing in the film are the space battles.

Well, at least boring is a term that stays between good and bad.

In order to provide a completely different experience, Elton John wrote one new song for the film, and Hans Zimmer decided to add an instrument to one of his old cues. The characters of Banzai and Ed were also renamed Bonzoi and Ted, thus creating unexpected surprises for fans of the original film!
Tina Guo making sexy cello perfomances of the old themes?

The Shape of Water - Desplat (2017), It - Wallfisch (2017) and Cleopatra - North (1963).

Yes, it's very french! A pleasure for the ears! One of the best Desplat scores and my favorite of the year so far.

Batman Returns is a wonderful score (better than the first), Black Beauty is just so gorgeous,
I prefer the first one. The second is wonderful, mainly the first half.

I do not think his stuff for movies like "American Hustle", "Tulip Fever" or "Girl on the Train" are bad. Scores for dramas, political thrillers or even romantic comedies are naturally the least adored. However some composers can capture the public's attention with these genres. Thomas Newman, James Horner, Georges Delerue and John Barry are some of them.

Agnes of God (Georges Delerue, 1985), Krull (James Horner, 1983), Orca (Ennio Morricone, 1978) and Mission Impossible (Danny Elfman, 1996 / Now I understand the story of the themes of 1996. There is the Elfman version that is in the movie and the popular one that came out on the radios that was arranged by the U2 guys
) .

I believe that If Elfman back to make the score of the next JL and try to fix the errors of the current score (themes with little memorable presentations and bad use of the classical themes of 78 and 89) the DC will back to having a consistent and enjoyable musical universe.

He never changed his appearance harshly. While we mere mortals change the extent that we age or according to what fashion tells us to be the wisest to wear, John remains the same, the same hair, the same beard, the same glasses, the same sweater with turtle neck. I say this because Jerry Goldsmith, for example, sometimes gets unrecognizable from one photo/video to another.

Rey, Luke and Ben Solo do not feature as active characters in the book Bloodline. Luke and Ben Solo are mentioned, but Rey is not.
So whatever Rey's relation with the other two, the book Bloodline says exactly nothing about it either way.
That being said, it does seem very likely to me that when Ben Solo and Luke were having their little disagreement, Rey was on Jakku and had been for a long time already.
I know. My revolt against Ren is because "how a man in the midst of his twenties gets deceived by the promises of old decrepit man to the point of killing his family for loyalty to him?" But we've seen this story in other episodes...

What book are you referring to?
Certainly not Bloodline. Rey has not the faintest relation to the story in that book.
No mention of her or Jakku whatsoever. It is mainly about Leia and a bit about Han.
Luke and Ben Solo are mentioned in passing, but nothing much is made of that.
Well, that's a shallow interpretation that's done from the story told by the book.If six years ago, in the timeline of TFA, Ben is still beside Luke and Rey was left in Jakku still a child, there is no way she would have participated in the event that led Luke to exile. She doesn't even have a relationship with it.


2017: Best of Scores (selection)
in General Discussion

Apes. The film is very entertaining and the music accompanies it very well. Besides being one of the best albums of the recent franchise. In second The Lat Jedi and The Shape of Water that are two great efforts of two talented composers. The two albums are great to revisit often, but still leave the feeling that they could be better. Third, Pemberton, who is proving to be a competent composer and someone who may gain more notoriety in the next few years. Fourth: Battle of the Sexes and Fifth: Victoria and Abdul (I like scores that mirror, even in a caricature, the popular music of certain regions).
