Well,I said that too...Phil's Theme..yeah,Phil is Born.

K.M.Who never thought Williams would re-visit heartbeeps..then again why not,it's probably his least heard score........----->

------>.....and so good nonetheless. I said it before thast I like this music on Heartbeeps very much and it is a great counterpart to Williams' high-quality symphonic stuff. This is my big favorite alongwith "smaller" scores like "Accidental Tourist". I think Heartbeeps is truly an exceptional feat in JW's output.

Of course, the clip is too short but I'll also make a careful prediction: The Fountain Scene = Am I Beautiful?

All in all, I think much of the music is very reminiscent of his past compositions.

Zimmer's As Good As It Gets is as blatant rip-off of Mozart's Clarinet Concerto that's it's even tragic. Is the Therminal score so blatantly unoriginal, Morlock?

What can I say, it reminded me of it, there are similarities.

I agree. Never the less, I am impressed.

Well Rogue, the music has to fit the project of course. Anyhoo, after his long break I really hoped that somehow we would get a Williams that sounded like a less familiar Williams, I was hoping for a surprising and fresh Williams. That doesn't seem to be the case. But heck, I'm buying this sucker as soon as it is available.

Man this was a total waste of Williams' effort IMO.

Williams really didn't need to waste his time scoring this movie.

For once John should've told Steven to find someone else.

NOOOO! Spielberg should've said, "Give me something new and surprising, John! I'm not making Stepmom, you know!"

Strange but, "Desting"..."Canneloni"...And Tale Of Viktor Navorski could be a happy moment on.... .Schindler's List. Hey, this music is getting fresher by the minute.

I'm starting to fall in love with the second part of "Gupta's Deliverance" too. If the movie is any good, this theme should be very effective in the "warm feelings" department. "Jazz Autographs" is the piano rendition of the same theme.

Stepmom had a very good score.

I thought it was boring, but i'm not going to pass judgement on the entire album based on some clips.

Ha! **puts a space between his teeth, becomes the governor of CA, goes on Conan as a pic on a TV screen** "You ahh boring, Con-an! You vill be termeenated! AHHH!!!"

Seriously...how old are you? The Terminal is not boring, Poindexter. It's got guts, compassion, elbow grease and something you're sadly lacking in, son--maturity! So what if it doesn't sound like Star Wars or Harry Potter? Doesn't mean it's boring or any less of a great score. To throw in another Schwarzenegger-related quote, "Open your mind...open your miiiinddd..."

You can't be serious! :roll:

Looks like this one if for Roald,Hlao-Roo,Peio and the rest of those who put Stepmom or Sabrina in their Top 5 of all time. :thumbup:

K.M.Who thinks this sounds very Williams 90's ish

Thank you K.M. for your detailed analysis! I referred back to it several times as I was listening to the clips. :thumbup:

I especially agree with the "happier" Schindler's List sound of the ethnic music and the jazzy Catch Me If You Can similarities.

For me, "A Legend Is Born" is the track I'm really looking forward to hearing in it's full form.

Well, I love the themes of the first 2 tracks. It's not a revolutionary score, but I'm sure this will be indeed a feel-good listen as Spielberg claims. And it probably suits the film woderfully (as always). You can't except Buckbeakc's flight in this kind of movie.

I'm listening to it right now,it was composed somewhere between ESB,Raiders and E.T.What's amazing is Williams ability in that period to write so much SUSTAINED great music with themes flowing in and out of each other at every moment for the entire score and coming up with amazing variations one after the other.I just wish it was all orchestral.

Hmmm.... Where did you get that impression from? 8O

Although I can appreciate certain tracks on the soundtracks you mentioned they are certainly not among my favorites. They wouldn't even make it in my top 30 JW scores.

My top 10 would be:

1 Star Wars

2 Schindler's List

3 E.T.

4 Raiders Of The Lost Ark

5 The Empire Strikes Back

6 Superman The Movie

7 Born On The Fourth Of July

8 Jurassic Park

9 Close Encounters Of The Third Kind

10 Hook

I don't see Stepmom, Sabrina or The Terminal anywhere near those scores. :thumbup:

Bye,

Roald

I am probably gonna pass on this one. Looks like a dud.

Real shame too!

After the long wait through 2003 when there were no friggin score releases I was hoping for some real meat in 2004. Sadly it looks like it will be just POA this year. Unless John does something else.

Listen to the samples. Many of us are really enjoying this score.

I have listened to em. I dunno maybe you have to listen to this stuff as a whole track but honestly this is kind of like Saving Private Ryan.

Ny that I mean this is another good score for the movie, but a not-so-great score for owning. Not to mention this score doesn't even have a Hymn To The Fallen like that score did to make up for it.

I'll give the tracks another listen. I guess I was hoping for something more than this.

What sucks is its only dudes like the ones in that pic HPfan put up who have a real chance with the ones in Stefan's pic! :mrgreen:

You are wrong, Linda en Annemieke are very nice girls who are far more interested in a person's inner qualities then his looks.

From the looks of things probably not!

However, having genetics like the kind those guys have certainly would GREATLY assist your chances with the ladies. That was my point.

Right!

Just like the way you put that pic in your sig because you admire the girls heartwarming "inner beauty". Right Stefan? :|:eek:
