Rogue_Leader 2 Posted July 3, 2004 Share Posted July 3, 2004 Meh! Sorry, but IMO other than POA there are no other truly great scores released so far. The Terminal is very good, but not quite great IMO. I've heard Van Helsing but its WAY too generic for my tastes. Nothing special about it. The Troy score? The Unreleased one was fairly good, but the one in the movie was horrid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morlock 11 Posted July 3, 2004 Share Posted July 3, 2004 Yeah and one of em was pretty lackluster. I mean it was as good as it could be for a romantic comedy, but it was still a let down. Personaly, it was better than I ever cwould've thought it could be. Van Helsing is a good score Certainly. Troy would have been a great score if we hadn't heard it 37 times before. Troy is fine, the rejected one is one of the best recent scores. I've been thinking about it- you'll rarely have a summer that truely could be concidered good for scores. I can't think of a single one in the past decade that was particulaly great (1997 is IMO the best). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Coscina 3 Posted July 3, 2004 Share Posted July 3, 2004 Hey Rogue Leader, what do you think Giacchino would have done for SPider-man 2? Oh wait, we'll know next December when he scores his own super hero movie! YEAH!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rogue_Leader 2 Posted July 4, 2004 Share Posted July 4, 2004 Yeah I would not expect an overly serious Superhero score for The Incredibles. Probably something more along the lines of what Chicken Run was for a "Prison Escape" score. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morlock 11 Posted July 4, 2004 Share Posted July 4, 2004 That's one of the reason I don't think we're gonna get teh amazing score everyone thinks. It's rare that a comedy score could be made more than just that. I'm expecting a high energy, very thematic score, but mainly I think it'll be fun. Like a whole score with the amount of fun, pardoy, and energy as 'Building The Crate' from Chicken Run. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rogue_Leader 2 Posted July 4, 2004 Share Posted July 4, 2004 IHey Chicken Run was a great score IMO. Plus I do believe The Incredibles will have its share or solid action music as well as a great main theme. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David Coscina 3 Posted July 4, 2004 Share Posted July 4, 2004 Yup, i agree. I think Giacchino has already demonstrated an ability to score the "big project" with his outstanding music for video games and concert pieces. And I think we should give him the benefit of the doubt.Who knew film score fans were such cynicists. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A24 4,345 Posted July 4, 2004 Share Posted July 4, 2004 How much chance for a hyped score a la LOTR is there anyway?

Luke Skywalker 1,795 Posted July 5, 2004 Share Posted July 5, 2004 Erik, if you speak to Giacchino, tell him that if he can, that he tries to release all his scores complete if they fill one CD, and if possible in chronological order. But of course with care we dont want him sacked from his movies! (disney's scores are very short mostly. for example)I think many members would agree with me.Luke, who unfortunately is sure than more is in there on why the releases are that way (like prices, reuse fees and so )And congratulate him for SWON!

Erik Woods 555 Posted July 7, 2004 Share Posted July 7, 2004 Hi guys,I will forward all of your kind comments to Michael. As for the albums... he tries his hardest to get all of the music he composes for a certain project on CD. That's why SWON is a two disc set... he knew that fans would be upset if they didn't have those short 1-2 minute stingers that appear on Disc 2. As for sequencing... I'll ask him about it!And I'm pretty sure Michael is working on the next Call of Duty.-Erik- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually... I do make amateur films and Michael was going to score my WWII movie FOR ALL TIME, if he had the time... but that was 4 years ago and I never finished the movie. You can check out my old, pop-ups galore web site http://www.angelfire.com/ab/tews to see stills and other stuff from my amateur movie making days.You can download clips from my movies by clicking the following...http://www.dillusions.net/media/tews/the_hunter.wmv (The Hunter - Featuring Beltrami's The Mimic and Williams' The Fury)http://www.dillusions.net/media/tews/of_fortune.wmv (Of Fortune and Glory - Featuring McNeely's Terminal Velocity) http://www.dillusions.net/media/tews/three..._on_a_match.wmv (Three On A Match - Featuring Debney's I Know What You Did Last Summer, Silvestri' What Lies Beneath and Williams' Jaws 2)http://www.dillusions.net/media/tews/for_all_time.wmv (For All Time - No Music... but does have a temp track from Giacchino's Semper Fi and Cider House Rules)These are all action scene examples. They were uploaded to test the new encoding software I purchased. I tried to put the software to the test with some of my busier scenes.

Rogue_Leader 2 Posted July 9, 2004 Share Posted July 9, 2004 If Erik ever starts making major movies he could develop a working relationship with Giacchino as his composer like the kind Spielberg has with Williams!

Obviously SWON is one, but what were the other two?I did a demo video for MOH: Underground. It's not available anywhere... however, I might upload it to my web site. After watching that video, the producer ask me to produce another one for MOH: Frontline. The Frontline video is in the game... played during the end credits. And the last one I did was for SWON... which is in the game and on the CD. SWON was my favorite video until I produced the Mercenaries video.And unfortunately, I'm not in the SWON video...-Erik- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tilton's work is quite impressive and is up there with some of Giacchino's best work. Giacchino wouldn't let just anyone take over one of his scores. Chris is very talented and has produced a magnificent score. If you enjoyed any of Giacchino's previous scores, then you will enjoy Tilton's work!!! Trust me...
