JWFan Thematic Tournament- FINAL
Ray Barnsbury replied to John Crichton's topic in General Discussion
Thanks! No, I used PhotoShop. And John, I like the second idea best. Spread the wealth and give the little guys a chance. -

Here ya go! -
Rank the three original Indy scores
Ray Barnsbury replied to Datameister's topic in General Discussion
Last Crusade, great though it may be, is clearly in last place for me (though that's not saying much). I have a hard time choosing between the classic Raiders and the less balanced, but amazingly exuberant Temple. I suppose I'll go with Raiders. -
Memories of your parents making you, maybe... Unless his mother had the gestation period of an elephant, I doubt it.

Good/Great scores written in the year of your birth.
Ray Barnsbury replied to Kevin's topic in General Discussion
Indeed! Also: The River Gremlins The Natural Supergirl And of course, though it's not a score, "Olympic Fanfare and Theme." -
Philosopher's Stone vs. Prisoner of Azkaban
Ray Barnsbury replied to Josh500's topic in General Discussion
Sorcerer's Stone by a hair. Both are wonderful scores, but PoA doesn't quite have the consistency and development of the first score, making it less cohesive as whole. -
Nice Christmasy feel with good themes. But as others have said, it gets pretty repetitive, to the point where the perfectly lovely main theme becomes rather tiresome. So, 3.5 I think.

I never got into Seinfeld. Friends, Raymond, and The Office are a few that I like much better. And I Love Lucy is an irrefutable classic
-
Love 'em....the Lost stuff is excellent!

Everyone who appreciates the time and effort John C. put into the competition, which has been the most entertaining thing going on here in quite a while. Raiders ftw, by the way. -
JWFan Thematic Tournament- 3rd Place
Ray Barnsbury replied to John Crichton's topic in General Discussion
Supes! -
A 2007 poll indicated that JWFan preferred Hooper's score by a small margin.

Bravo, good sir.

'Presumed Innocent' versus 'Angela's Ashes'
Ray Barnsbury replied to Hlao-roo's topic in JOHN WILLIAMS
Both are very evocative piano themes, rather dark in nature but not without their share of warmth. This is rather tough. -
Indeed. In particular, "Dance of the Witches" is terrifically fun, and "The Ballroom Scene" is simply resplendent.
-
"Fireworks" is great. I haven't listened to the other two pieces since I bought the album in August, but "Music for Orchestra" seemed better than "Christus Apollo."

Hedwig's Theme! -
Thematic Tournament 2nd Round- Match 1
Ray Barnsbury replied to John Crichton's topic in General Discussion
I think Raiders. -
Thematic Tournament 2nd Round- Match 2
Ray Barnsbury replied to John Crichton's topic in General Discussion
E.T. because it's really hard to decide and the Force theme is going to win anyway. -
Happy New Year, JWFan!
-
Hmm, I hesitate to say "I didn't like it," because parts of it were all right. But then again, the more I've thought about it since seeing the film, there are a lot of things that I find wrong with it. I think I'll follow Marc's lead and vote for both.
-
Less than a month to go, folks!
-
Yep, pretty much.
