  1. What exactly wrong with the KOTCS music? At least the sessions have complete Jungle Chase which is one of the best action tracks in the whole franchise and may I say the one of the Williams finest in terms of action scoring. Warehouse stuff is great, Academy chase is great, finale stuff is great too and e.t.c. Soviet theme is cool and the Skull motif itself is very creepy. That Peru cue is pure cheese and I freaking love it. I've finished Dial right now and I don't know how to react to it, honestly. The album is 100% frustrating and I feel that the actual movie will have a ton of highlights. Also for the action packed movie, as it was already called by some reviewers, I don't hear enough representation of it. On the other hand, the score sounds excellent, the recording is stellar too. P.S. I think that pretty much every original Indy album is lackluster, the same goes for the Star Wars.
  2. I mean as the separate recording, for one last time. But KOTCS one is still works wonderfully.
  3. Seems like it. And no new Raiders arrangement. And too much Helena's theme, and there is a very strange edit point in the Germany, 1944 and e.t.c. I feel like this album will be lackluster when we will get the complete version somehow. Still hoping for complete 5 movies box set. And I wasn't really into KOTCS soundtrack before I've heard the recording sessions.
  4. Any chance for me to get the spreadsheet? I want to jump into the score, and watch the show because I've missed it
  5. Thanks, my bad, Google sometimes is not very good in terms of handling the search of certain things here. But the track is so good that it's definitely deserves it's own thread.
  6. Whoops, my bad, thanks for correcting me I can't remember, their old theme was present in the Holiday Special or not?
  7. I still can't properly get into Wakanda Forever score. If the first score was a big step from standard MCU sound, the sequel one is a giant leap.
  8. The thematic inconsistency problem was in MCU since day one and current situation is morbid, based on the themes above: Silvestri is unlikely to score upcoming two Avengers movies, but who knows, it'll be dumb to waste most memorable MCU theme Giacchino will definitely return for new Spider-Man movies so the theme is safe Bates will not score the third Guardians, John Murphy have replaced him, so the theme is in danger Beck scored all three Ant-Man's and that is the most cohesive MCU trilogy in terms of music Elfman have replaced Giacchino in the second Strange and the theme went out of the window Göransson barely used any music from the first Black Panther in the sequel so it's a miss And Pinar Toprak was replaced by Laura Karpman, Ms. Marvel composer for the sequel, I don't think that the theme will survive that change (EDIT: My bad, the theme will be featured in the Marvels)
  9. How this wasn't brought up here yet? It's marked 1 year anniversary yesterday. This 12 minute-long juggernaut piece was written for the area in Disney parks It's brilliantly mixes themes from Avengers, Spider-Man, Guardians of the Galaxy, Ant-Man, Doctor Strange, Black Panther and Captain Marvel
  10. Some cues weren't released, and it's not in chronological order, since the bonus material is added to the end of the program, but it's mostly complete
  11. I know not so much examples of it, but it's one of the most horrible inclusions to do, if not absolutely the worst. That's a thing on the first Creed album and they are integrated right in the tracks. And the only way to avoid it is to buy "Director's Cut" vinyl from Mondo. What were they thinking...
  12. EMI have done a remaster/reissue series in the 2003. Some expanded, some expanded and remastered. Thunderball, On Her Majesty's Secret Service, You Only Live Twice (complete) and Diamonds Are Forever (complete) were remixed. Live and Let Die is complete
  13. I wish for LLL release of the first score but it seems too small to make it 2CD (Speed got the expansion, for example, but it was only 1CD too) but Paramount clearly had an opportunity to do it at least in digital form on the waves of the Maverick hype. (Every song from the movie should be here too) Maverick complete score will be great too but I'm not that interested in RCP ostinato-driven stuff. Since Faltermeyer was upset about the released score I have thoughts that it was clearly botched in the production, as was mentioned before. (Of course it will be botched, changing Kraemer in Mission Impossible for Balfe was quite jarring) And that new re-recorded version of the Danger Zone will be great too I understand that Cruise wanted to evoke same feelings as the original but c'mon that's still too interesting to leave it "on the shelve". Remix for the Ace Combat 7 rocks btw Edit: Wow I've listened to the complete Maverick score (of course with some audio from the movie) and aside Hold My Hand motif and original Top Gun anthem it is absolute mediocrity. Canyon Dogfight sounds like something from Transformers, hell, even Transformers have better music than that. It works in the context of the movie but outside of it, well, nope. At least Zimmer did WW 1984, which is his best work in years
