Aside from The Nativity Story, what other Mychael Danna scores do you guys recommend?

It should be fun tracking Giacchino's growth from The Lost World to Jurassic World.

Wow. Mobile sites really dont work well on a desktop...
Yeah, that always gets on my nerves.

Thats racist!
Nah. That's profiling.
It's fact.

Pete Docter’s new animation Inside Out does not deliver that shock of the new which was so stunning in the Pixar heyday of the last decade — all the dazzling technical spectacle of detail, colour and light which had us gobsmacked, and which we now take utterly for granted. This movie is a sweet-natured coming-of-age comedy, a kind of tween-transition crisis, though with a fundamentally sunny Disneyfied worldview. It hasn’t anything as genuinely emotionally devastating as Up, or the subtlety and inspired subversion of Monsters Inc. and the Toy Stories which it certainly resembles at various stages.

Are you a tall rectangle, a wide rectangle, or a square?

Dinosaurs are not good; they are terrible.

The score as a whole is wandering, aimless, and without much substance (which made it perfect for the movie, which was all three of those x2).
Basically The Phantom Menace.

Yes we did!

Minority Report‘s series pickup was never in doubt, but the project, based on the 2002 Steven Spielberg movie, got the ultimate seal of approval from Spielberg, whose company Amblin TV is producing the TV adaptation. The filmmaker, who had been involved in the development of the futuristic drama, recently watched the pilot, directed by Mark Mylod and, impressed by what he saw, opted for an executive producer credit on the project, something that he is entitled to on all Amblin TV projects but rarely goes for.

Dangerous sentiments have been loosed in another thread. Sentiments that must be corralled and put to bed, lest they claim any more from our flock. Brothers
and sistersof The Church of Our Dear Lord and Savior John Williams, we must respond swiftly and forcefully. Vote your conscience now. -
There is no mystical, divine intervention involved. His greatness is the fruit of his own effort and labor. Nothing else.
That sounds like a whole other discussion, although I'll grant your point for the purposes of this thread (and this board).

Anyone catch the season premiere of The Tatiana Maslany Show? It was on the same time as Rockets-Mavs Game 1, which naturally takes precedence.

But if you're literally spewing at the same anecdote, with nearly identical metaphysical, "out-there" language, in every single interview, roundtable discussion or anything with a camera filming it, then I start to doubt just how genuine it is.
It's easy to fall into the same talking points time and again when you're on a press tour.

Is it now unfashionable to think about things with any depth?
I don't know. Has it ever really been "fashionable"?

It's Sharky before 2012.

This presents an interesting problem though. At what point does a person speaking with gusto about their ideas, their inner experiences, become absurd or pretentious? One is tempted to keep one's mouth shut on such matters since that point seems very easy to reach in many people's views. If Nolan and Zimmer are merely speaking passionately about these things, and I think even with Zimmer it's possible that he isn't just a BS publicity whore as you and other seem to think, who are we to decry them as weird? Can no one air their most abstract or daring thoughts without being branded a windbag? Sure, some are, but all? Don't we all have such thoughts, though kept locked away for fear of the very criticisms we perpetuate?
Weirdo.

I agree with your post, Blume. However, in my quote above I'm referring not to the process but to the outcome: Partly because of the way cinematic action sequences have evolved in the latter stages of Williams's career, the narrative identity, direction, and flow of the musical accompaniment are, to my ears, often lacking. I have nothing against creativity as a quality developed and earned through painstaking trial and error.
