    First of all:

    Congratulations to Elliot Goldenthal for his new award

    Congratulations to Ricard and Andreas for the excellent new desing of the web

    Now:

    I need your help

    Last time I was undecisious to buy a score, I asked you

    The result was very good as the score was Schindler's List

    My new buy is The Red Violin composed by John Corigliano.

    It is cheaper today as there is a sale, so it costs 18 euros.

    I would like to know if this score is worthy

    Thanks for your help

    My cd is here!!!!!

    What a score!!!!!!!!

    Incredible, John Williams have composed one of his best scores ever in my opinion.

    But there is something odd in my cd.........

    In some moments in the cd, I listen like noises at the background of the music (like vinyl discs sound)

    For example in Track 2, at 2:40 until 3:05, I can listen to this.

    Please, I look for replys

    Thanks for play the cd

    Will these scores nominated for Academy Awards?

    There is one score that I didn't put on my list that has many options to be nominated

    The Hours composed by Philip Glass

    Being a composer (not for many scores) I didn't count him, but people really like his work and however Golden Globes and all these awards used to nominated strange composer, the population of the film can make it a winner in the score category.

    That would mean that the score would be nominated instead of.......

    Catch me if you can?

    Impossible, the music is very important in the movie

    Far From Heaven?

    Not after Howard Shore being awarded for Gangs in another awards

    Frida?

    Songs and score are excellent

    Road to Perdition?

    It is a very creative score, so why not nominated it?

    The Two Towers?

    It is a sequel and it have been overlooked in another award

    The Two Towers not nominated??????????

    :?

    We will see

    :sleepy:

    Will these scores nominated for Academy Awards?

    Well

    After the numerous awards that have been given and the Golden Globes, I have decided to post a topic where I want to explain the scores more easy to be winner.

    Here they are:

    Catch Me if you Can by John Williams

    Positive: It is a jazzy work with old songs and Academy loves that (as well as Williams' material)

    Negative: It would be a winner, if they would be less competition. It could have won another year.

    Road to Perdition by Thomas Newman

    Positive: This is a creative work by the composer. It works great in the film and makes it one of the best scores

    Negative: However it is very creative (celtic, jazzy), it lacks a big theme. Also, the film was released a time ago. It will not win

    Frida by Elliot Goldenthal

    Positive: When he gets nominated in Golden Globes, later he is in Academy Awards. The music is excellent in the film and Goldenthal won an important award!

    Negative: Usually Golden Globes winner is not the same as Academy Awards winner. Goldenthal's music can be too weird for Academy

    The Two Towers by Howard Shore

    Positive: It is an incredible score that is better everytime you listen it.

    Negative: After the news about Howard and Academy rules, this must be a pity nomination. And the score have failed in another award

    Far From Heaven by Elmer Bernstein

    Positive: Academy love Bernstein doing drama music and the score is getting many good quotes. This can be the sure winner

    Negative: However there is one (stupid) thing that can be dangerous. Everytime that Varese have released a score at the same time as the movie was released, these scores have got nominations (Pleasantville, Basic Instinct, Aliens) but have never won, and they deserved the award. I know this sounds odd, but it is true

    I would say Far From Heaven as winner.

    Tell me what do you think

    Schindler's List

    Well, I think I have to say it to all of you, I need help.

    I have all the classic scores composed by John Williams (Star Wars, Indiana Jones, Jaws, Jurassic Park, ET...) except Schindler's List.

    I have tried to buy it many times in the past, but I have never got it because I always thought that it is "sad music".

    Let me explain:

    The rest of the Williams' scores were not so dramatic as this one.

    But Williams have surprised to me many times (this year with Minority Report)

    All the web sites put it as the best score of the last decade and the last best classic Williams so...

    Is it incredible music?

    Soundtracks for Christmas?

    I think I'll pass on Goldmember though, most of the songs are todays music by the likes of Britney Spears.

    You can listen to the whole soundtrack online in www.austinpowers.com

    Go to the soundtrack section

    Yeah Baby yeah, Austin Powers songs are the best!

    CharlieSherry, who have Austin Powers 1 and 2 soundtracks as well as the scores and can imitate (and his friends love it) Fat Bast"rd and Dr. Evil
