Well this thread went to shit.

I like parts of Tyler Bates's score to GOTG V2, and Samurai Jack, other then that I'm drawing a blank.

Damn. Netflix doesn't have it yet.  I want to see it but doubt that it's worth paying for a rental... it looks like a 2 hour version of the same old stuff you see on film score DVD bonus featurettes.

Speaking as someone who has supported the Kickstarter, I think it's very worth paying a few bucks for - it's not perfect, but covers a lot of ground and treads a fine line between targeting musical illiterates and hardcore film score nerds. I would be surprised to find a new release immediately on Netflix.

Quote

• Why Disneys Frozen originally had a darker, more determined sound.
• The last-minute frenzy to re-score Pirates of the Caribbean after its original pirate score was thrown out.
• How World War Z's original score bumped it to an R rating from PG-13.
• What Steven Spielberg changed about E.T.'s famous across-the-moon shot so John Williams could write music for it.

 

Interestingly, none of these topics ended up in the final movie...

Are you serious?  Those are all interesting topics!
