What was wrong with The Incredibles, Ratatouille, Up, and Toy Story 3?

Very cool! I always love seeing recording sessions for movie soundtracks. Can't wait for the next issue of FSMOnline to go live!

Patrick Doyle has had two incredible, amazing, wonderful scores. Henry V and Great Expectations. Music to die for.

I'd love a third one.

You didn't like Man to Man? I thought that one's wonderful.

Yes it sounds pretty authentic as far as bagpipes are concerned. Some modern drum beats (to which I am developing an allergy) here and there but otherwise a-okay.

I'm with you there pal. The modern rhythms and drumbeats really started annoying me in Doyle's career when they showed up in Thor, ever since, you can tell Doyle really likes them. I hope they don't influence this score too much. From what I've heard, Doyle is trying to stay true the ethnic identity of the film, which is great. We'll just have to wait and see what we get in the end.

A Little Princess, Hamlet, La ligne droite, Mary Shelley's Frankenstein, Much Ado About Nothing. Then there are several more that are just very good overall. And several more that aren't bad, but mostly worth it for one or two highlight moments. I'd count Great Expectations among the latter.

Marian, I think you and I are the only two people in the world that enjoy Doyle's Frankenstein. That and Edward Shearmur's Count of Monte Cristo. At least I think that was you.

What are you talking about?

Doyle's Frankenstein is one his most beloved scores (or so that was my impression). Its definitely one of the man's best.

And I love Shearmur's Count of Monte cristo! Not flawless, but a great score!

I think Frankenstein is quite popular, at least the loud ballsy parts. What probably makes me different from most others is that The Creation isn't my number one highlight of the score, rather the love theme in its various guises.

And yes, Shearmur's Count is cool After being thoroughly disappointed by Reign of Fire, the first score I'd heard by him because of all the praise it got (which still does absolutely nothing for me), I ignored him for years. But Count is a fine score, with very strong highlights - An Invitation to the Ball is fantastic. Reign of Fire is quite nice, too.

Favourite Pixar Scores:

1) Ratatouille * * * *

2) The Incredibles * * * *

3) Up * * * *

4) Finding Nemo * * * *

5) Wall-E * * * 1/2

I usually rank the rest around 3 stars. They're not bad but not great either.

SORRY but Doyles contribution is less the average. He's a mediocre film composer.

Considering his recent output, I can say why one would say that (althouh i dont agree at all). But his past work proves otherwise. And Doyle's score is certainly better than Hooper's nonsense and Desplat's questionable work (although I enjoyed the final score).

I find Hooper's fifth score to be vastly superior and much more listenable. Desplat's score is servicable. Even Doyles doesn't make people's ears bleed the way a zimmer score does. KK please note I did put least and not worst.

Joey, your constant stream of upholding your own opinions as empirical facts and your laughing at other's opinions needs to stop, please.

01 - Personal attacks will not be allowed. Please be RESPECTFUL of one another, allow for differences in opinions, and please don't make anyone feel that they cannot post their views in this forum.

Thank you.

I see how it works, it's okay for you to do the same because of your admin title because you do it all the time.

However I will continue to state my opinion, if you're not able to realize it's my opinion and you infer it as a fact, well that is your mistake.
