It sounded way different than anything else in the score. Almost source-like.

They aren't hung up on all the crap Hollywood swims in. They just give the award to what they consider the BEST score. Very simple. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drawgoon 79 Posted March 14, 2022 Share Posted March 14, 2022 If I was Nolan, and my collaborator had dumped me in favor for some remake, and my (self-proclaimed) original film (on which he abandoned me) had underperformed, my working relationship with the distributor had fallen apart, and yet the gig that my (ex)collaborator picked over mine's had gone to snag him his second oscar amongst all the other awards and recognition... mmm...

Disco Stu 15469 Posted March 14, 2022 Share Posted March 14, 2022 I don't think it's fair to hold Tenet's box office performance against it considering when it was released.

Mephariel 309 Posted March 14, 2022 Share Posted March 14, 2022 I agree. Goransson certainly won the most. But listening to Tenet, I think Zimmer needs a break from Nolan at least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Alex 2389 Posted March 19, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted March 19, 2022 A few things I’ve noticed about this interview, apart from the fact I find this guy insufferable. 1) His casual dismissal of the European orchestra. 2) His desperation to appear like he’s doing something new or interesting. 3) How uncomfortably close he gets to the female vocalist. I wish other scores got this kind of Vanity Fair piece. Jurassic Shark, Remco and Tom Guernsey 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KK 3251 Posted March 19, 2022 Share Posted March 19, 2022 I didn't have much of a problem with anything you highlighted. I mean he's not entirely wrong about classic science fiction (and most big film music for that matter) being guided by Euro-centric music traditions...although he's ignoring specific genre/film context in some of those examples. And the European orchestra, considering its predominant role in world's biggest and wealthiest institutions, needs no defending... But what makes him the authority on non-European modes of music? I cringed at 6:50, where he has a European white woman demonstrate South Indian konnakol (Carnatic percussive rhythms), albeit poorly may I add, and callously identify that as "rhythmic stuff" without an acknowledgement of its musical roots. NONE of that is original to Loire Cotler...that was a very basic korvai pattern any South Asian musician will recognize. Add to that throwaway remarks like "make that sound like a Tibetan war horn" and "ethnic landscape"...all of this reeks of cultural appropriation, exotification and white privilege, however impressive its assembly may be...all amassed to reinforce the Zimmer name and brand. 9 hours ago, Alex said: I wish other scores got this kind of Vanity Fair piece.

bruce marshall 1259 Posted March 20, 2022 Share Posted March 20, 2022 Watching the film... It's good work by HZ but i wish the director had been more selective. There's too much music which lessens its impact. On 03/12/2021 at 6:11 PM, Edmilson said: Directors like Chris Nolan and Denis Villeneuve love to mix their scores very, very loud on the movie. It was the same thing on Interstellar (which is a score that I like), Tenet and Blade Runner 2049. In Dune's case, the music is so loud sometimes that it's hard to hear everything else including dialogue. Sure, I have subtitles for their lines in Portuguese so I can understand what they're saying, but for people on English-speaking countries this must be infuriating. On video the dialog was crystal clear in two track stereo On 18/01/2022 at 12:19 AM, badbu said: it's always the same with zimmer scores. The best cues are missing but the fyc score is really good. Everything i want is on it. Well he eventually released a volume two if INTERSTELLAR. And THE DARK KNIGHT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
publicist 4635 Posted March 20, 2022 Share Posted March 20, 2022 And it's still a 2022 Top 3 score. I may wish a true intellectual like i. e. Wintory or Greenwood would get a chance to develop a truly 'alien' score, which does not confuse complexity with elaborate layering and sound wizardry, but as it is, Zimmer delivered.

Edmilson 4514 Posted April 4, 2022 Share Posted April 4, 2022 I've been listening to the FYC of Dune, which is a nice presentation of the score as heard in the movie, despite some boring bits. I still don't care for the wailing woman parts, but I really liked the theme on 6M46 Holy War Across the Galaxy. This cue reminded me of some of the epic 2000s Zimmer scores, like King Arthur, The Da Vinci Code and Pirates (specifically, the cue from the Jack Sparrow sacrifice scene on Dead Man's Chest). badbu 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Drew 557 Posted April 4, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted April 4, 2022 Dune is not a good score.
