  1. Can’t believe this video is already ten years old but yes @mrbellamy I think this is what you’re referring to.
  2. Thank you! I’ll probably never change it I’m not here as much as I used to be but I still try to visit often!
  3. Horner’s score is so gorgeous. Thank you for doing this!
  4. Barry was soured on the writing credit and royalties for the theme and admitted in one interview that he only used the theme in later movies when absolutely necessary (quoting: “sorry Monty” with a chuckle). So it was definitely a deliberate act. He used it more in Octopussy because EON was competing against the other Bond at the box office (Never Say Never Again).
  5. I’d love to find his signature wind-chimes sample/patch (think Southampton and The Launch). Any ideas?
  6. I’m sure it’s due to the huge amount of time he’s been given to score these latest films but yes it seems his sketches are now basically full scores which are sent directly to the copyists. I think he started this trend of doing mostly 16 staves instead of 8 around Book Thief in 2013? Or War Horse? There are some subtle differences across the decades depending on who’s orchestrating (Herb Spencer, Pope, JW himself), things most people wouldn’t notice like how woodwind runs are doubled/dovetailed etc.
  7. The big payoff sequence in the film that’s underscored with the first minute of Na’vi Attack is absolutely thrilling. It’s pure Horner through and through and I loved every second of it. Can’t imagine any other composer coming close to that.
  8. Absolutely loved it. The new family theme by Franglen is superb, and hearing those familiar Horner trademarks once again in a huge Dolby Cinema was incredibly emotional. I miss him.
  9. There was a thread on this video earlier in the summer but incase anyone missed it:
