MedigoScan 324 Posted May 10, 2020 Share Posted May 10, 2020 On 5/8/2020 at 8:49 PM, Disco Stu said: Picking The Shining as a favorite film score is bizarre. It's 99% needle drops. I'm not saying the soundtrack isn't brilliantly effective, but you can't say "It’s probably one of my all-time favorite film scores" when it literally is not a film score. Perhaps she simply prefers to judge a soundtrack by how its used in the movie. Not by how listenable it is to the common ear. (Also the Shining score is still a film score!)

Thor 7,504 Posted March 15, 2021 Author Share Posted March 15, 2021 I think the awards it's getting are well-deserved.

I think Joker is an overrated score, but it is undeniably an effective score and hits you in and out of the film. Does it deserved all those awards? Imo, no. But film music fans are the same group of people who would have given Elfman 5 Oscars for writing the same fantasy scores over and over again and never complain about "inventiveness." So...

Other than the fact the score is just not that good, that score is the least Newman score of his career. If Newman won, he should thank Zimmer in his speech. I would hate that to be the score that defines his career. Rise of Skywalker is a better listening experience but if we are going to talk about inventiveness...this isn't it. With that said, if I have to give the Oscar to someone that year, I would say Little Women. A beautiful and fitting score to the movie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
