  1. 1. Which version is better

    • Yes, Michael Giacchino's version is absolutely the clear winner here
      0
    • No, I don't think John Williams' film soundtrack in any way outshines the soundtrack to the PS1/Saturn game.

Which one did it better?

 

So...I really like the Giacchino game score. In fact I'd say I might like it better than either of his two later big budget Jurassic World film scores! But seeing as how The Lost World is on my John Williams top 20, sorry I just don't think Giacchino can compete, so I won't be voting for either of your funny options. ;)

 

I'm one of those who actually prefers The Lost World score to Jurassic Park, despite the great and iconic themes in the latter. Maybe because it's so Goldsmithian in its action rhythms and how linear it is (that's also why I adore Black Sunday).

Gia always loses to Williams. He is not in John's league.

Medal of Honor is SO much better than Saving Private Ryan.

And Up is better than E.T.

I love Up but can't agree with you there. (But maybe you weren't being serious.)

 

However, I seem to recall that at the time many film music fans were underwhelmed by Saving Private Ryan (aside from perhaps Hymn for the Fallen, which itself I've never really liked either!) while being blown away by the original Medal of Honor, heralding Giacchino as the new John Williams (which I never considered him to be).

I think SPR is completely unworthy of inclusion among John top 15. But I am a huge non fan of MG. I do like the UP score.

Agreed. But also...

 

Saving Private Ryan by John Williams is an okay (or fine "very good" if you're a fan...I'm not) film score.

 

Medal of Honor by Michael Giacchino is one of the greatest video game scores of all time.
