Not Mr. Big 4,639 Posted November 28, 2017 Share Posted November 28, 2017 "Finn's Confession" from TFA. An underappreciated cue, helps soften the film/score slump in that portion of the movie. I particularly love the War Horse-esque statement of Rey's Theme in the second half. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not Mr. Big 4,639 Posted November 28, 2017 Share Posted November 28, 2017 I disagree. I love that theme and hearing it return in any context is a treat. In fact, I suggested it be brought back in a forum post early 2015 or so (along with the male choir from ROTS). JJ Abrams reads JWFan confirmed.

Disco Stu 15,495 Posted December 4, 2017 Share Posted December 4, 2017 Whose fault was that? Who thought that the TNG couldn't stand on its own for their first film? Was it Berman? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fancyarcher 350 Posted December 4, 2017 Share Posted December 4, 2017 Berman and Tartikoff felt that using Kirk was a way to "pass the baton". At the time I suppose it made some sense. Really the issue was that the way they got Kirk involved in the story was too flawed, and relied a bit too much on "accidental circumstances" or whatever.

And the thing is, they wouldn't have even had to change the script that much to eliminate Kirk entirely, he's so unnecessary. I love everything about that movie around Kirk.

Fancyarcher 350 Posted December 4, 2017 Share Posted December 4, 2017 Yeah, they actually had a solid concept to base the story around, and the film was enjoyable in parts. The most disappointing aspect was in fact the Kirk / Picard team-up, and they could have removed that entirely, and it wouldn't have made a huge difference.

Oomoog the Ecstatic 314 Posted January 28, 2018 Share Posted January 28, 2018 The music of Twin Peaks (1990-1991) wasn't perfect, but this was my favorite track from the show. The last 4th of the show was to me the most impactful. This track plays several times within this period to signify the innocent love between Cooper and Annie. However, I think what this track best illustrates instead is Dale Cooper's character individually: it summed up the show, of who Dale was, the gentle optimistic way he approached people and life. It makes me think of him strolling through the sunny woods with butterflies around, picking up on spiritual signals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Holko 9,526 Posted February 7, 2018 Share Posted February 7, 2018 What a great little cue! I always thought it scored some Basket Chase-like action scene, but from what I've seen of the film, it's just people walking down a market and talking? When first watching the movie, these motifs really jumped out at me as something I know. Not in the usual, frustrating "oooooh, I swear I've heard this before but WHERE???" way, they just have a warm, calming, embracing familiarity. publicist 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Naïve Old Fart 9,527 Posted February 10, 2018 Share Posted February 10, 2018 THE HUNT/THE BLOODING REEL (sorry, but in my head, this is one track). There really is nothing that I can say about this score that hasn't already been said, except that film music just doesnt. Get. Any. Better. Than. This. A stunning, and career-defining achievement.

Dixon Hill 4,234 Posted February 22, 2018 Share Posted February 22, 2018 God, there just aren't many moments in music that are more moving than this one.

SteveMc 2,674 Posted February 24, 2018 Share Posted February 24, 2018 It was a post I saw a couple days back from @Richard that made me aware of Williams's Gloria from Monsignor. I must say I am quite impressed. Echoes of some Rozsa's concert choral works, perhaps, but in spirit overall I think it owes a bit to Beethoven's Christ on the Mount of Olives. Still very much in a unique harmonic and melodic language, out of John's usual "comfort zone" if you will. Heard it couple of times. Was unsure about the beginning at first, but I hear now how everything comes together structurally. Very impressive. Makes me wonder what a Williams Mass would sound like. Also, what is the context of the cue in the movie? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kasey Kockroach 2,344 Posted February 25, 2018 Share Posted February 25, 2018 One of my absolute favorite finales to any score ever. (I'm sorry to witnesses that are likely sick of my Powell kick, I promise I'll be over it soon!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The "off" chord about half way through, is when he locks eyes with a former lover (ooh, I know; a Catholic priest with a lover! Who'd have thought, eh?) played by Genevieve Bujold. To be fair, though, he's incognito, so... It's a silly film, but it passes the time. The score is definitely the best part of it.

Dixon Hill 4,234 Posted February 28, 2018 Share Posted February 28, 2018 Such unrefined orchestrations.
