Indiana_Fett 0 Posted November 27, 2006 Share Posted November 27, 2006 Sounds more real than the first score (The first one sounded like it was music for an American Revolution documentary.) and is an overall, better effort on Zimmer's part.

John Crichton 4 Posted November 27, 2006 Share Posted November 27, 2006 The new little ditty for Jack Sparrow isn't too bad, but gets repetitive as it has no variation. And it's not enough to prevent the score getting the F it deserves. Which is better than the first score, which deserves a G at best. Maybe even an H.

Ollie 1,069 Posted November 27, 2006 Share Posted November 27, 2006 I just gave it an F since technically there is no worse letter grade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

robthehand 3 Posted November 27, 2006 Share Posted November 27, 2006 It hurt my ears, gave me a headache for several hours after seeing the film, and trampled out any goodness the film might have had.From those alone, I have to give it the worst grade.

Morlock 11 Posted November 27, 2006 Share Posted November 27, 2006 I thought it was terrific in the film, and made for a decent album. Good use of the themes, and I love the new Jack Sparrow theme. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greg1138 3 Posted November 27, 2006 Share Posted November 27, 2006 I gave it a "C-" - still an awful lot of autopilot sections, but with some moments that lift it way above the dreariness of some of his more recent scores. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BurgaFlippinMan 7 Posted November 28, 2006 Share Posted November 28, 2006 that new Sparrow cello cue isnt half bad, but cant save it from being an F. Still, better than the first score.Burga - who is wondering who gave it an A+ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Crichton 4 Posted November 28, 2006 Share Posted November 28, 2006 Burga - who is wondering who gave it an A+Yes, I was wondering that myself. One would think someone would do that just to rile us up. But said someone can't do said riling without revealing themselves. So come on, fess up so we can suddenly have another pointless 3 page Zimmer thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bondo 33 Posted November 28, 2006 Share Posted November 28, 2006 I was considering not saying anything, but I stand by my decisions... I gave it an A+. I loved the damn thing. I loved it in the movie and I love the CD. Don't get me wrong though, I love orchestral scores as much as the next person. But I love the new themes, the old themes, and even the underscore. I don't get hung up on "what could/should have been." And do I think it's the best score ever? Hell no, I just love it!Now go ahead, call me an idiot, call me misguided, "Bondo... it figures!", whatever. It's not a popularity contest.

QMM 4 Posted November 28, 2006 Share Posted November 28, 2006 Both Davy Jones' theme and the new Sparrow theme were excellent additions, especially the unreleased cue of just the organ playing the Davy Jones theme. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey, I may disagree with you, but that's been your consitent position from the start and is your honest opinion, and I respect that. I figured it was just some troll trying to cause trouble. You go right ahead, but you're still wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BLUMENKOHL 1,071 Posted November 28, 2006 Author Share Posted November 28, 2006 It's at 45% F. It's gonna need a whole lot more A+'s to get to anything higher than an F. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChrisAfonso 188 Posted November 29, 2006 Share Posted November 29, 2006 B judged by what it is, not by what it could have been. It's fun and more diverse than the first score. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
