  1. Well I don't mind it being disco, it fit the movie and the era perfectly at the time! It was done intentionally that way, and it was done great! Conti's FYEO is also disco and still it's one of my favourite 007 scores.
  2. Well you might discover you've been missing a lot, once you start to discover Ennio's music. The Thing and TGtBatU are absolute musts, and there are so many other favourites ...
  3. Such sad news He was delicious and absolutely unforgettable as Smee!
  4. If I could pick only one Morricone soundtrack, it would definitely be The Thing.
  5. The Spy Who Loved Me is a great 007 score (and song!) and the one I will personally remember him by.
  6. The renowned composer died yesterday, 68 years old. May he rest in peace!
  7. Listen to how In the Name of God, the final track of Dream Theater album Train of Thought, ends. ;-)
  8. Yep, it's nicely done, I'll agree to that. It's especially cool to see the chopper - and then maybe just directly continue watching the 1982 movie!
  9. Some great music by young and promising Slovenian composer Rok Golob. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YhjRrehxA-8
  10. The Thing, last year's prequel by Matthijs van Heijningen Jr. Being a huge fan of Carpenter's 1982 classic, a lot could be said here but I must admit I wasn't very disappointed. A lot of things could have been done better or at least different, but on the other hand, there is a lot of originality and inventiveness. Thus the general impression is good as it seemed to me that the whole team, cast and crew, tried to do their best and in their own way pay tribute to Carpenter's version. Even Morricone is quoted at the beginning and the end, I liked the way this "bookends" the movie. The actors are great, especially the Norwegian team and Ulrich Thomsen (Davidov from TWINE). All in all, a perfectly OK horror flick although the Carpenter version of course remains far superior to this movie.
  11. James Newton Howard - Alive I love JNH's melodic, sweeping moments. I think he does it really well in many of his works (e.g. Wyatt Earp).
  12. +1! Does anybody know when is the Skyfall soundtrack supposed to come out? I checked on the Amazon but it's not even up yet, let alone the date ...
  13. Which Varese? None of her three Final Destination scores has ever been released! Or do you mean the Memoirs?
  14. Truer words were never spoken! I love this soundtrack! Concerning her Final Destination scores, I'd love to see them released someday, they are very good and I'd very much like to add them to my collection!
  15. He finds long distance travelling too uncomfortable. So this has actually been officially announced (by JW or his agent)? Must've missed it ...
  16. My question would be why did he suddenly stop conducting film music concerts with LSO years ago, and apparently won't do it again ...
  17. What's this? Someone on the board that doesn't trash Serra's score? Outstanding! I like it too! I very much agree with what Miles wrote. The Goldeneye Overture is indeed awesome, and I quite often pop in this soundtrack just for this very track!
  18. Top 3: 1. Williams 2. Goldsmith 3. Horner Followed by: - Shore - Silvestri - Elfman - Barry - Conti - Jones - Arnold - and more
  19. - The Last Unicorn - This Is Halloween - Jack's Lament - Up There and - Mountain Town (both from South Park: Bigger, Longer & Uncut) Can't think of more right now.
  20. Good girl! Hope they're not just acting as dust collectors!
