Will 2,215 Posted March 30, 2017 Share Posted March 30, 2017 1 hour ago, RedBard said: I'm ashamed to admit that I am not as familiar with Desplat's work as I would like to be. What works of his emulate the orchestration and instrumentation of Debussy and Ravel? I'm not very familiar either, actually, so can't help you there! But yes, Fal is right, I am simply referring to a comment in this article - http://www.premiere.fr/Cinema/News-Cinema/Alexandre-Desplat-a-enregistre-la-BO-de-Valerian-en-France - and not Desplat's past works. I'm not sure if his past works have been very Debussy/Ravel or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still can't get past the twin casting, but if it's more like Fifth Element than Jupiter Ascending, then great. It needs heavy sarcasm and wit to succeed though (quality speaking) because we all know it will bomb at the box office even with a 100% RT score, because all the teens will think it's a ripoff of Guardians of the Galaxy. I'm a teen and I think it's another Jupiter Ascending ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arpy 4,145 Posted March 30, 2017 Share Posted March 30, 2017 It will flop for sure. Hopefully like Jupiter Ascending I can still admire the score. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jay 37,370 Posted May 24, 2017 Share Posted May 24, 2017 The music used in the trailer is very familiar to me..... Well, this looks like a very strange, but probably very fun movie. I don't think it will be an instant classic like Fifth Element though, it probably won't end up being a film worth seeing again, but we'll see. I'm looking forward to Desplat's score more than the film, for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
