JoeinAR 1,949 Posted January 7, 2013 Author Share Posted January 7, 2013 while it's obvious I am asking for more lists I am pleased by all who have participated so far. I have purposely not tried to figure anything out so it's as much a surprise to me as it can be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KK 3,307 Posted January 7, 2013 Share Posted January 7, 2013 I don't think I found anybody else with more than 4 scores in common with mineI think my list has at least 5 scores in common with you, but not in the same order. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sandor 796 Posted January 7, 2013 Share Posted January 7, 2013 Its there....Wait, why is your name still Roald in that thread?Christ! I am losing my mind!Sandor and Roald at the same time!!!!!AAAARRRGGGHHHH!!!!!!Huh..? I don't understand it either... When I open the thread I just see Sandor yet your snapshot says differently... I'm guessing you didn't go all Photoshop on this, so it must be some kind of weird cache error on your phone... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marian Schedenig 8,153 Posted January 8, 2013 Share Posted January 8, 2013 That may be the problem. I've listened to all my favourite Williams scores so often, I can barely bring myself to play them these days. I've perhaps listened to the Star Wars and Indy scores twice in the last few years, and E.T. and JP not at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brónach 1,301 Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 I'm trying to reduce the list to 10 and it's killing me.It doesn't help that there are score that I feel I'm not familiar enough with them to make fair comparisons.I think I'll just try to find 10 to skew a bit the results towards music I happen to like.

Marian Schedenig 8,153 Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 I hate myself for doing this, because whatever ranked top 10 I write down I can't really agree with myself, but right now this is the best I can do:1. The Fury2. CE3K3. ESB4. Star Wars5. Jurassic Park6. Indy 37. Hook8. HPPS9. Jane Eyre10. JawsFinally! Someone else who recognizes the amazing of Azkaban!It should be on the list. But I had only room for one Potter score, and considering that PS is more internally consistent AND also contains about twice as much first rate material as the (long) album, whereas I only remember missing little bits and pieces, POA had to go. Arguably, it would still rank one place behind PS, but drop Jaws for that? Nah. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was that way when I joined the board, but over the time I've switched. I'm worried the MB's preferences may be influencing mine.I don't, generally. I had both on my list and had to kick off one. I decided to throw out Raiders for two reasons: 1) I expect (not having read the earlier pages of this thread - lazy) that Raiders will be getting more votes anyway, and where in doubt, I chose the underdog, and 2) LC is less focused on the Indy theme. These days I far more often want to listen to all these Williams classics than I can actually bring myself to do it, simply because I've heard them all so often. But it's still easier to listen to a score with more evenly distributed themes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SF1_freeze 131 Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 Azkaban, TPM and War Horse are the JW masterpieces from the 1993-today period with PoA being the best of the bunch and all three having a place in my top 10 list.Of course TLW, AI, RotS and HP1 are right on their tails Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uni 306 Posted January 12, 2013 Share Posted January 12, 2013 Okay . . . so while we're waiting for the last few lists to trickle in, I want to throw out a bit of discussion fodder to fill time until the big event:Without naming anyone or pointing to a specific list—just broadly speaking—which score were you most surprised to see on one or more lists? Why?For me, I'd say it's The Lost World. Like the book and the movie, it seemed cobbled together quickly in order to get it out where it could make a few extra bucks. That's not to say I think it's awful music, but certainly nothing that would come within ten miles of a Top 10 list. I've never even been able to connect with the main theme, much less the rest of it.- Uni Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BLUMENKOHL 1,068 Posted January 12, 2013 Share Posted January 12, 2013 The Lost World is one of those wonderful emotionally unbiased scores to me (in the same vein as Star Trek The Motion Picture, and even Star Wars in many regards).That's not to say it lacks emotional payload, just that it's very carefully balanced in the emotions it conveys. Combine it with a fresh sound for the maestro and some nifty orchestration, and it's hard not to love it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay 37,254 Posted January 12, 2013 Share Posted January 12, 2013 Totally disagree with you about The Lost World! It was a contender for my top 10 for sure. The OST presentation is not ideal, completely changing the order of things so themes and ideas build in a different way... but the complete score (at least what we can hear from DVD rips) is awesome. Might be my #1 most wanted complete score release now with all the recent leaks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoeinAR 1,949 Posted January 14, 2013 Author Share Posted January 14, 2013 I listen to the Lost World and I think Earthquake, an underrated score if there is one, and Lost World simply works on so many levels, without the jazzy sounds John used prior.
