Jay 37,416 Posted June 9, 2010 Share Posted June 9, 2010 I received The Aviator OST from a friend as a gift, but haven't found time to listen to it yet. I'll add it to my "to listen" pile Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taikomochi 1,136 Posted June 10, 2010 Share Posted June 10, 2010 The Mecha World for the way it merges grandeur and sadness."The Search for Blue Fairy" from A.I. Artificial Intelligence Either!Ah yes, mine is either "Search for the Blue Fairy" or "Becoming a Geisha". I consider both to be possibly Williams' best work in a score ever.

Brónach 1,302 Posted June 10, 2010 Share Posted June 10, 2010 Another great cue this decade has given to us (I don't know if it's been mentioned): the ten minute and a half long The Healing/The Great Eatlon/End Titles, by JNH. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoeinAR 1,949 Posted June 11, 2010 Share Posted June 11, 2010 So is everyone in agreement about Hands of Fate, part 1 and 2. GOOD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ollie 1,059 Posted June 11, 2010 Share Posted June 11, 2010 For most overrated cue of the decade?Then yes we are in agreement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taikomochi 1,136 Posted June 11, 2010 Share Posted June 11, 2010 I don't think it's really an overrated cue. Best track of the decade would be overrated perhaps, but Hand of Fate Pt.1 is absolutely brilliant. Pt.2 is rather boring though. I don't understand why that gets as much attention.

Gruesome Son of a Bitch 6,488 Posted June 11, 2010 Share Posted June 11, 2010 Another highlight is John Debney's 15 minute SpectroMagic parade suite for Walt Disney World. I forgot he redid the music this decade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gkgyver 1,646 Posted June 11, 2010 Share Posted June 11, 2010 I hate to say it, but "One Day" from At World's End is probably amongst the most famous ones. And, well ... *sigh* ... it's worth a listen once in a while Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
indy4 155 Posted June 11, 2010 Share Posted June 11, 2010 I could never bring myself to say any one cue is the best of a decade, but "Hand of Fate" is certainly amongst the top contenders. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gkgyver 1,646 Posted June 11, 2010 Share Posted June 11, 2010 Am I the only one who has never heard of a track called "Hand of Fate"?I feel like no one brings up The Aviator except Morlock and I.And for good reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You posted the wrong link.Yeah, it is kind of overrated. Still, I think it works amazingly in the film. *spoiler*The violins that start in as Gobsons' character's wife dies are orgasmic!

Brónach 1,302 Posted June 11, 2010 Share Posted June 11, 2010 It's great cue, but the impact on the film is even better. I find that a lot of times Howard's music "elevates" the scenes in films to something more crucial and epic that they appear to be. I don't know how to explain it, but if you've seen some Shyamalan movies you know what I mean. Hand Of Fate Pt 2 is lovely too.I like how Shyamalan relies a lot on music as another tool.

Ollie 1,059 Posted June 11, 2010 Share Posted June 11, 2010 Signs is a good score, nothing more nothing less.It feels and sounds like a hybrid of Herrmann and Goldsmith. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Koray Savas 2,251 Posted June 11, 2010 Share Posted June 11, 2010 And yet it still has JNH's unmistakable style. It's one of my favorite scores, and I would not object to "The Hand Of Fate" being entitled as the track of the decade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
indy4 155 Posted June 11, 2010 Share Posted June 11, 2010 Yeah, Signs is much more than a good score. It may make it into my top 10 scores of all time, it's certainly my favorie JNH score. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
