Composer Dream Jobs

[Romão 1,931]

I would to hear Herrmann's take on pretty much everything.

[Jeshopk 8]

I'd like to hear John Williams compose for a zombie movie. I'd like to hear Danny Elfman's take on Star Wars - just in an alternate universe kind of way. I would like to hear a score where Spielberg oversaw shore in a post production sense, how he brought the best out of Jerry in Poltergeist - I'd like to see if he could bring better out of Shore.

[Marcus 385]

I'm not sure Spielberg could get that much more out of Shore, who's hardly a composer of Goldsmith's calibre.

A Jerry Goldsmith LotR trilogy devoid of synths, would be really wonderful.

Or a Williams one.

Or perhaps a Vaughan Williams LotR?

[Hitch 55]

However...how about we resurrect the corpse of Bernard Herrmann, extract his DNA, clone him, and get him to rescore every single Zimmer score composed with the exception of Zimmer's magnum opus, "Driving Miss Daisy, op. 19mph". I won't begrudge him that one.

Update: Bennie informs me he wouldn't waste ink and paper rescoring Zimmer's work. He deems Zimmer's work "unsuitable for the human ear".

It's always puzzled me how a fan of such shit like Gustavo constantly bashes Zimmer completely out of context.

Because I can. And I wish to go on....puzzling you.
