    I know, right? I don't care if this is just an old bag of typical Hornerisms, they remain as effective as ever in moving me.

    Fixed. The studio will try to make it "appeal to current sensibilities" to "attract a younger audience" but it'll be so poorly received on social media that they'll have to quickly re-shoot the ending.

    If this movie doesn't get the Oscar for Best Visual Effects I'll be pissed.

    Man, this is just awesome news. More Early Horner and rerecordings yet to come?  There’s no denying Horner is getting incredible spotlight lately, and it feels great to be a fan.

    Zero AI was used on BBtS by Intrada… Chris Malone and Doug Fake manually spliced in fixes from superior take sections.

    The post-credits scene for Aquajoke Aquaman 2 has leaked and spoilers: it's a mind blowing scene that sets up a sprawling Crisis on Infinite Earths four part epic featuring every actor from the DCEU (including Cavill, Affleck, Gadot, Fisher, Momoa and Miller) and from James Gunn's DCU (like the new Superman and the next Batman, who hasn't even been announced yet), plus Ryan Reynolds' Green Lantern, Christian Bale's, George Clooney's and Michael Keaton's Batman, Chris O' Donnell and Alicia Silverstone as Robin and Batgirl, Brandon Routh's and Tom Welling's Superman, Halle Berry's Catwoman, Josh Brolin's Jonah Hex, Shaquille O'Neal's Steel, everyone from the CW shows and an AI recreation of Christopher Reeve's Superman.
     
    All of that directed by the one and only Martin Scorsese, who after binging literally every Marvel/DC movie ever produced, from the 1940s serials all the way up to The Marvels, overcame his hatred and contempt for the superhero genre. "I was so so wrong. A superhero movie can be as deep and philosophically and thematically complex as any movie from Ozu, Kiarostami, Godard, Antonioni, Fellini and Kurosawa. I feel like my career won't be complete until I direct something at least half as good as Guardians of the Galaxy and Thor: Ragnarok", he said.

    Don't be an idiot. They didn't have green screens 2000 years ago. Everyone knows that.

    What I love about Thomas Newman is that he is a master of knowing exactly what to do to extract the biggest amount of emotion of the listener.
     
    This cue is an absolute masterpiece of that: it starts with the "Brooks Was Here" theme just for piano and synths and then at 1:50 the audience is surprised with some deeply moving and emotional strings. The Brooks Was Here melody continues but it gets a pensive oboe at 2:47 that climaxes with some of the most touching string writing ever written for any movie.
     
    A masterful cue for a masterful score written for a masterful movie.

    I suppose I would love to be proven wrong, but I think that would be disappointing. Two months ago I might have been all on board with that.

    The deep string writing at the end of that cue is some of the best music I've ever heard. It's cathartic - at a perfect moment - and it's pretty much the most overtly emotional thing we - as viewers - have heard so far in the film... and it's just a man walking in a field. It works so fucking well.   
     
     
    I love that moment too. Almost sounds like something that should be in one of his 90s animated films. Has an epic feel but a lovely innocence to it.

    Some of my most beloved Horner moments of all time:
     
    0:31 to 1:08. Horner takes the Deep Impact theme and make it sound very happy and nostalgic. It's kinda like it was describing a happy moment you're enjoying with your loved ones but also adding some hints of sadness and nostalgia that all of these moments will become just memories in the future.
     
     
    Speaking of Deep Impact, there's two moments in the final track that are simply amazing. First the crescendo that starts on 4:21 and explodes on 4:40:
     
     
    During the end credits, the variation on the main theme for children's choir and orchestra that starts on 7:07 and goes until 7:35 is so positive, so life-affirming, so filled with joy and hope... I love it.

    By the time this set is being released we'll be on Star Wars: Episode XVIII, composed and conducted by the biologically engineered John Williams clone, who retains all of his memories and musical knowledge in the body of when he was 35.

    You can't think of it that way.  The score isn't being compared against his prior work.  It's being compared against the other scores for new movies that came out in 2023.  Massive difference.

    Nah, it's probably not something as famous as Aliens or Star Trek. It's probably gonna be something very obscure, but I've got no idea what. 
     
    Perhaps Brainstorm? Maybe no one found where those ellusive tapes of the American recording sessions were so they'll have to re-record the whole thing?

    Fixed. The studio will try to make it "appeal to current sensibilities" to "attract a younger audience" but it'll be so poorly received on social media that they'll have to quickly re-shoot the ending.
     
    I know, right? They literally dug Archimedes' grave, wherever that is, and used artificial intelligence to turn his centuries-old remains into his younger self.
