Richard Penna 3,689 Posted December 8, 2020 Share Posted December 8, 2020 Tintin Lincoln Book Thief BFG The Post I have a couple of tracks from Tintin and Lincoln (one of the latter is from the FYC so I can't buy it), but nothing at all from the rest. I tried watching The Post during the summer, to see how the score worked. Turned the film off after about 20 mins. Dull beyond words. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smeltington 1,440 Posted December 8, 2020 Share Posted December 8, 2020 I have them all. This was a very rewarding phase of Williams' career, especially the drama scores and Star Wars sequels. The only one I don't really care for is The Post. Which I blame on this: 2 hours ago, Richard Penna said: I tried watching The Post during the summer, to see how the score worked.

Smeltington 1,440 Posted December 8, 2020 Share Posted December 8, 2020 No you cretaceous bozo! I think the extreme boredom of the movie meant that JW had to write a boring (by his lofty standards) score to match. Jurassic Shark 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember visiting Tower Records every couple of weeks in 1990/1 and being pleasantly surprised when I would find a new Varese reissue (Jaws 2, Eiger Sanction, The Fury, Earthquake, Dracula). I lived in Japan in the early 90s and bought the Japanese issues of Space Camp (CD Club), Goodbye Mr. Chips (EMI), as well as Superman (w/the tracks missing from the US issue). I even called Bay City records in 1990 (no idea who I spoke with) who confirmed their release of 1941 would have the cannons just like the OST LP.

Jay 37,364 Posted December 9, 2020 Share Posted December 9, 2020 I had to get a lot of his OST albums later on the second hand market, but eventually got them all (except Eiger, which was too expensive. Although I did pay a lot for Valley of the Dolls and The Reivers).

TSMefford 1,509 Posted December 10, 2020 Share Posted December 10, 2020 I am missing Adventures of Tintin, Lincoln, and The Post. I honestly forget about these films / scores because I've only seen Lincoln, and only the one time and don't recall much of it. I had worse taste at that point as well so maybe I'll give those all a shot. I haven't heard a note of Tintin or The Post. I'm a bad JWFan.

Datameister 2,043 Posted December 10, 2020 Share Posted December 10, 2020 As far as new Williams film scores go...I haven't picked up The BFG yet, though I've heard the score and may end up buying it at some point. The Post I'm not familiar with at all. I think I've got everything else; in no particular order, my favorites are TFA, Lincoln, and War Horse. Kinda regret buying The Book Thief...I almost never feel like listening to it. Joni Wiljami 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
