Brundlefly 2,385 Posted October 21, 2018 Share Posted October 21, 2018 Sometimes it's especially the underscore that's interesting. For example, the stuff I like most about Star Trek: The Motion Picture are the (occasionally more or less) droning, ambient cues from "Meet V'Ger" to "V'Ger Speaks". I don't particularly care for the main themes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love those piccolo tears that Williams loves to throw in his scores, and the compy music is one of his effective applications of it. This dude's on the level, hep to the jive! My only qualm is preferring the OST's cue title The Compys Dine. TLW is top 5 Williams for me, competes with Hook now and then as my very favorite.

Take out the weird LP issue, and the old album's perfect. Woah, woah. Suddenly no one wants anything beyond the OST, after years of complaining that nothing had leaked? I've had trouble getting used to the chrono ordering, but not in a million years would I remove any tracks. I'm with you guys on the shrieking instrument in the Compy scenes. It's so unmusical and actually a pretty unimaginative way of scoring the scene. I lost a tiny bit of material when I put the film version of Ripples in place of whatever LLL cue it is, and I don't care at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kasey Kockroach 2,344 Posted October 21, 2018 Share Posted October 21, 2018 I know! It's wacky! I mean, I myself wasn't really begging for it, but I always figured JP complete would be cool to have. Lost World complete? Nah, I like the album, don't need to hear more. Then the complete score came out for both and it was quickly realized "I guess mister Williams got the cue selections right the first time for JP...". And of course, technically being right for Lost World's OST selections, since any highlights added wouldn't have fit on one disc. I love the entire score from start to finish, but the OST is a satisfying shorter playlist as well (save putting The Stegosaurus near the end, weirdly enough). Which is to say, the outcome was the reverse of my expectations. Unlucky Bastard 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kasey Kockroach 2,344 Posted October 21, 2018 Share Posted October 21, 2018 At the risk of sounding ungrateful, I assure ya'll that this only applies to JP. I would never remove a single cue from TLW and only return to the ost when in the mood for something shorter. Plus, I love TLW's ost packaging. I know, I'm the only one that does.

That's weird: Spielberg said multiple times he prefers the score for TLW to the JP one. I remember 'cause I personally disagree: I think TLW has great themes, but I found its score redundant and somewhat boring. Someone here said the JP soundtrack is repetitive, but TLW is like 80% percussions, especially the expanded version: which is great, but I honestly couldn't listen to it more than once. As for the OST versions, I like the way JW merged some cues, but in the JP OST the main theme is literally everywhere, which is annoying: I find the expanded chronological version way more enjoyable.

Brundlefly 2,385 Posted October 22, 2018 Share Posted October 22, 2018 Just because TLW consists mostly of percussion cues, doesn't mean it's redundant.

Richard Penna 3,695 Posted October 22, 2018 Share Posted October 22, 2018 JP is a score where I think you could put on the entire score and still have it be a good listening experience because his suites bring together related material. Maybe combine You Bred Raptors/System Ready/Race To The Dock/The Saboteur as a kind of 'antagonist' suite, rearrange the anniversary set to fix the stupid double-LP structure, and add that extra suite. Although you lose the film ending to Incident which would drive my completist side crazy.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
