Nick Parker 3,040 Posted November 4, 2008 Author Share Posted November 4, 2008 Apology accepted. Next subject: where is "Viktor and His Friends" play in the film "The Terminal"? Is that one scene with them playing sort of card game? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Delorean90 42 Posted November 5, 2008 Share Posted November 5, 2008 "Viktor and His Friends" comes after "Gupta's Deliverance.""Eye to Eye" covers the sequence begining with Ellie and Muldoon's decision to go to the power shed. It ends with the sequence after Muldoon tells her to run to the shed.I thought "Eye to Eye" was the unused cue for the part of the tour where they approach the Tyrannosaur paddock, but she's not there.The sequence where Muldoon encounters a Raptor is actually the last part of "The Raptor Attack" cue. The first half covers the beginning of the kitchen sequence.Really? I thought that last part was just tracked in from "The Raptor Attack." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Delorean90 42 Posted November 5, 2008 Share Posted November 5, 2008 Oh, duh! I forgot that "Eye to Eye" was one of the combined tracks. I'll have to recheck "The Raptor Attack," then. I always thought that the film version of "Clever Girl" just tracked in the ending of "The Raptor Attack." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richard Penna 3,696 Posted November 5, 2008 Share Posted November 5, 2008 Thank you, Jason. I had no idea how mangled the album was.Indeed. I think it's one of Williams' most atrocious albums personally. Misnamed cues, repeated material, and still enough room to put on the whole score if Williams had just let someone else do it. Up there with PoA's collossal waste of space known as Mischief Managed.I think this is an excellent thread, particularly with Williams albums. Up until recently I had no idea what the cue 'Death of the Messenger From God' from the LC boot was scoring - then I saw the respective track on Concord.

Desplat13 1 Posted November 13, 2008 Share Posted November 13, 2008 What is the theme found in the Quantum of Solace score on the track "Pursuit At Port Au Prince" at 5:20?

Mr. Breathmask 555 Posted November 13, 2008 Share Posted November 13, 2008 It's no particular theme. Just some sweeping strings to accompany an establishing of a new location in the film. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gruesome Son of a Bitch 6,488 Posted January 26, 2009 Share Posted January 26, 2009 What is this awesome "theme" I'm hearing 17 seconds into "Grievous And The Droids"? I don't think this was even used in the film, but it's great. Does Williams just pull this out of nowhere to never be heard again, or was this intended for Grievous?

Datameister 2,044 Posted January 26, 2009 Share Posted January 26, 2009 Not a theme at all...just a minor-key brass fanfare written for that particular moment. =) (Which corresponds to the exterior shot of the bridge of Grievous' ship, just before Anakin and Obi-Wan are brought in to meet him, but that part of the cue wasn't used in the film.)

Nick Parker 3,040 Posted March 20, 2009 Author Share Posted March 20, 2009 Nearing the end of "Main Titles and Mountain Visions" (and "Resolution and End Title"), there is an (awesome, if I may say so) four-note motiv played on the brass, and I believe it gets some variations in "I Can't Believe It's Real" as well.

Incanus 5,716 Posted March 22, 2009 Share Posted March 22, 2009 Yes the eponymous first track of Minority Report is what I think should be the End Credits of the film which features some of the major thematic and motivic ideas of the score: the Pre-Crime motif, Spyders motif and some of the murderous swirling string music underscoring the killings in the film and a horn solo of Sean's theme finally leads to the A New Beginning theme which is a sort of elaboration on Sean's music that has taken a hopeful turn forms the ending of the piece.

Incanus 5,716 Posted March 22, 2009 Share Posted March 22, 2009 Well if Minority Report track is just an edit job the Great Escape would have been somewhat difficult to summarize and add in the running time of the 6½ minute End Credit piece. And of course it is not exactly a setpiece by setpiece description of the score as such but End Credit length summary of the themes.And the score is full of these independent musical moments with only a handful of smaller motifs to keep the cohesion. Anderton's Great Escape is the main set piece. JW could have picked any one of them for the suite. He just chose the Pre-Crime motif, Spyders and Sean's theme.

Nick Parker 3,040 Posted March 22, 2009 Author Share Posted March 22, 2009 Thanks, Incanus and Elmo. Sorry to pester with another question, but there is a (rather delightful, in my opinion) string arpeggio that constitutes the majority of the two Tracks "Abandoned In the Woods" and "Where Dreams Are Born". Is that arpeggio a recurring motiv, or is it one of those "Reprise" situations that are common in John Williams' albums? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Incanus 5,716 Posted March 22, 2009 Share Posted March 22, 2009 The Abandoned in the Woods theme is actually The Abandonment/Martin's Theme of which the track is just the most elaborate variation. This theme can be heard in the film several times before this grand version of it and it is a lot more subtle prior to that. It represents the boy of the Swinton family and his malice towards David and finally the abandonment in the woods which is caused by Martin's continous attempts to oust the Mecha from the family. Sadly on the album you can't hear this development at all.Track 10 of the OST Rouge City is where Williams made a strange hybrid by combining a sort of reprise of the Abandoned in the Woods and the Rouge City on the soundtrack album which repeats the theme unnecessarily and offers the hacked up Rouge City music which should include the Rosenkavalier quote by Richard Strauss. For reasons unknown Williams cut the quote of the classical piece off and the edit on the OST sounds pretty clumsy once you have heard the film version which is available only on the Oscar Promo.And as far as I know Where Dreams Are Born bears no relation to this theme but is based solely on Monica's theme.

Nick Parker 3,040 Posted March 22, 2009 Author Share Posted March 22, 2009 I have the One Disk Oscar Promo (which excludes the two songs that are apparently on the commercial album), so I am not sure if the Track listing is any different, but "Where Dreams Are Born" is Track 9, is it not? And is this "Abandonment Theme" found at approximately 0:07-0:33 during "Abandoned in the Woods"?You know, I think I might try to track down that Two-Disk Promo sometime....

Where Dreams Are Born is track 9 on the OST whereas it is track 8 on the 1 disc Promo.And I have to say I am only vaguely aware that there is even a 1 disc Oscar Promo. If you like this score then the 2 disc version is worth getting for a much more rounded experience of this wonderful music. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
