  1. The company I work for has just given everyone a £150 voucher to use at Resorts World in Birmingham. This World Of Hans Zimmer thing is there in April so I just got myself and a friend a ticket for it. Best thing on the menu.
  2. While I prefer Casino Royale as a complete work, there is no question that this should be considered his best 007 score - simply for the reason that he proved himself so utterly for the job, and the legacy proves that. All of his Bond scores have several singular superb moments in them and I place this score as a very close second. 'White Knight' is not only my favourite Arnold Bond cue... it's also not only my favourite Arnold cue entire... it's one of my favourite cues of all time! (Hearing it played live at Birmingham Symphony Hall back in 2016 was one of my absolute captivating live music experiences to date). The tension build in the first third of this cue is fucking sublime. Those bass marimbas! The expansion is fantastic by the way!
  3. Christ, Thor made a funny. First serious encounter with Goldsmith will most definitely have been The Mummy, though subconsciously he had been in my field of view for a couple of years prior (Mulan being the other obvious example). As a 90s child I explored that era’s output first. The likes of The Edge, Total Recall, The Russia House, The 13th Warrior, etc were all discovered fairly easily. Then the real depths of enlightenment began.
  4. Alanis Morissette has joined the chat. Beat me to it, you bastard.
  5. Blimey Charlie, this is really quite great.
  6. Two Thomas Newman cues from different films with not just similar names but an almost identical compositional idea!
  7. Look forward to hearing this. I love his Planet Of Lana game score.
  8. Obligatory Amy Winehouse biopic incoming:
  9. The New Age/ethnic genre is one I’ve always loved - my appreciation for it predates that for film scores even (I had an aunt who was waaay into it). This is a great choice, by the way.
  10. Wasn’t remotely interested in this but the announcement of Edwards as director has piqued my curiosity somewhat. The great thing about Spielberg’s original is it is entirely shot from a human perspective; not a single shot of a dinosaur is filmed from higher than eye-level. Edwards, for the most part at least, obeyed this aesthetic in his Godzilla outing so I’m intrigued to see if he will continue that approach here. As for the music, I would really like to hear somebody else tackle this. I think I’d even prefer Desplat over Giacchino.
  11. I initially read that as 'Bradley Walsh' and I thought, probably, yeah. He's in fucking everything at the moment.
  12. That's amazing! I was meant to go to the Patrick Doyle thing last year - it was in my calendar but it snuck past me. Very cool anecdote regarding Capaldi, I cannot think of anything more appropriate! I did meet Chris Addison very briefly in Aberdeen back in late 2009/early 2010, when he was touring his stand-up. I only bought a ticket because I'd heard of him from the show, which had only recently concluded Series 3. Can't believe it's been that long! My mum used to know Rebecca Front though! Worked for her agency back in the 90s! Sometimes you have to remind yourself that these sorts of things have happened. Haha. To quote The Thick Of It: "We can make a blacklist of words you should never stand in front of, in case the press get to do something like this." "Peacock... Shuttlecock.... Spatchcock.... anything 'cock' really" "You remember that folk singer, Tim Hardin? Well you'd be able to get 'I'm Hard'... out of that" "'Coarsefishing'... that could be 'arsefish' if you crop that." "And 'walkie-talkie' could be cropped to say 'alkie', twice!" "Why would I stand in front of a 'walkie-talkie' sign?"
