Arpy 4,145 Posted January 22, 2018 Share Posted January 22, 2018 Was listening to Homecoming today, it's a neat little score. Monumental Meltdown, Webbed Surveillance, Academic Decommitment and the Suite are all standouts from the score. Pieter Boelen 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay 37,287 Posted January 22, 2018 Author Share Posted January 22, 2018 Homecoming's great! Pieter, just listen to the whole thing! Most of those other Marvel scores aren't worth your time IMO Pieter Boelen 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mstrox 6,647 Posted January 22, 2018 Share Posted January 22, 2018 Man, Homecoming is probably my least favorite from that roster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay 37,287 Posted January 22, 2018 Author Share Posted January 22, 2018 Do you like other Giacchino scores, or never been a fan of his work? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mstrox 6,647 Posted January 22, 2018 Share Posted January 22, 2018 I love a lot of Giacchino's work - I'd consider him among my top 5 working composers. I think his Doctor Strange is pretty good, but thought Spider-man was just passable. Maybe I'll need to give it another thorough listen. My thoughts when I first listened to the CD: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
idril 86 Posted January 22, 2018 Share Posted January 22, 2018 Homecoming is definitely worth listening to in full, but so is Doctor Strange in my opinion. The other all-round great score is Thor: Ragnarok and I could take or leave the rest as full scores. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay 37,287 Posted January 22, 2018 Author Share Posted January 22, 2018 Definitely give Homecoming another listen Troxy, if you like Giacchino's older works you should probably like this one, it's not radically different from his older action/adventure writing. mstrox 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
raider 8 Posted January 23, 2018 Share Posted January 23, 2018 The First Avenger and The Winter Soldier are pretty up there with a great score. Out of all the Marvel films tho, Ant-Man is the one I keep repeating in my head. Cerebral Cortex 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cerebral Cortex 3,357 Posted January 23, 2018 Share Posted January 23, 2018 Doyle's score to the first Thor movie has some really great stuff in it that has kinda been forgotten. The rousing rendition of Thor's main theme that we get during the end credits is one of the best score moments we've gotten out of the MCU IMO. idril 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fancyarcher 350 Posted January 23, 2018 Share Posted January 23, 2018 Thor definitely has some of the best moments in the entire MCU music wise to date. Thor Kills The Destroyer is such a great track, and of course the quieter more dramatic moments are also nice. Plus Sons of Odin. In terms of some of those scores I'd recommend listening to Farmhouse from AOU, and San Francisco 1987 from Ant-Man as well.

crocodile 7,984 Posted February 1, 2018 Share Posted February 1, 2018 I also liked the first film. Wasn't as impressed by it first time around but soon realised this is one of the more enjoyable Marvel films (despite tired premise). It had one of the more memorable Marvel scores as well.

Alex 2,833 Posted February 16, 2018 Share Posted February 16, 2018 Listening to the Black Panther, very fresh and unique, lots of African drums and chanting. It’s nice that Marvel are allowing scores like this for their film, and haven’t completely embraced the RCP sound. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crocodile 7,984 Posted February 16, 2018 Share Posted February 16, 2018 So with 241 reviews it holds the score of 98% on RT. The critical consensus reads: "Black Panther elevates superhero cinema to thrilling new heights while telling one of the MCU's most absorbing stories -- and introducing some of its most fully realized characters." I would absolutely love to see that film. Is it showing anywhere already? I must have walked into the showing of a wrong Black Panther movie earlier this week.

Karol All a Marvel films needs to be is watchable for it to garner that kind of RT praise. Of course, it also doesn't help that anybody who dares raise the slightest dissent will be branded a racist.

mstrox 6,647 Posted February 16, 2018 Share Posted February 16, 2018 A 98% aggregate review score doesn't mean that it's an almost-perfect movie. It means that 98% of reviewers felt better-than-lukewarm on it. Plenty of the "fresh" reviews are not raves. It's a good sign that this will be a crowd-pleaser, though.

KK 3,307 Posted February 16, 2018 Share Posted February 16, 2018 Right. Though these RT ratings do encourage Marvel fanboys to continue lauding these films as "cinematic masterpieces". It is crazy how much of an event movie this is turning out to be, at least within my generation. Seeing it with some friends tonight. Hoping it will be somewhat different from the usual Marvel fare.

crocodile 7,984 Posted February 16, 2018 Share Posted February 16, 2018 I do like Marvel films overall. They tend to be a reliable entertainment. But in the past year, I had major issues with 3 out of 4 releases. Think I'm getting old. Karol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
