#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 10,265 Posted September 24, 2005 Share Posted September 24, 2005 Clemmensen has done nothing but re-reviewing old Goldsmith and Horner scores in the last few months. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unlucky Bastard 7,782 Posted September 24, 2005 Share Posted September 24, 2005 Good for him. Those old reviews were too short as they were. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Incanus 5,715 Posted September 24, 2005 Share Posted September 24, 2005 I have been wondering about that myself too. I guess Christian hasn't gotten any new scores to review or he is catching up on his "write a new review of older scores list" or something. Though Clemmensen's reviews are some times quite frustrating to read (because of the reviewing system of million different stars for a score in its varoius guises) I still visit the site regularly.

Hlao-roo 389 Posted September 24, 2005 Share Posted September 24, 2005 Clemmensen's been busy, according to a post on his message board some time back. He has enough "expanded reviews" to get himself through several months, or something like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ray Barnsbury 8 Posted September 25, 2005 Share Posted September 25, 2005 I usually enjoy reading Clemmenson's reviews. Hopefully he'll begin a new batch soon; I'm particularly interested to hear his take on Charlie and the Chocolate Factory.Ray Barnsbury Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Incanus 5,715 Posted September 26, 2005 Share Posted September 26, 2005 LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL Chris is the man!!!! Tell us how many stars we should give to a score(as heard in the movie, as an album, as heard through a wall, as heard head in a bucket, overall rating).But no seriously. Christian Clemmensen has a great site and I wish he would write reviews for some new releases. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Breathmask 555 Posted September 26, 2005 Share Posted September 26, 2005 I don't have a problem with the rating system actually. A score can be judged different ways, and I think it's nice he tries to cover as many as possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 10,265 Posted September 27, 2005 Author Share Posted September 27, 2005 It would if, but he has a tendency to rate a score effect in a movie, even if that movie has yet to be released. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Breathmask 555 Posted September 27, 2005 Share Posted September 27, 2005 That is wrong indeed, I agree with you there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Docteur Qui 1,544 Posted September 28, 2005 Share Posted September 28, 2005 I get more annoyed when he jumps on the band-wagon and rates a score without hearing it in its true context, and entirety, i.e. ALL of Williams' scores. HP: PS was a five-star score, as well as PoA. I guess he was too busy reviewing LotR's score by watching the films, studying the scores and listening to it ad-nauseum to listen to PS a second time.

Morn 8 Posted October 2, 2005 Share Posted October 2, 2005 When is that guy going to do something about that site. It looks so old fashion, like a web site from 1995. And the forum is very old technology. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tjguitar 0 Posted October 3, 2005 Share Posted October 3, 2005 I don't think the site looks that outdated. The forums could use some software upgrades, but its no big deal. The forum still gets decent traffic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nightscape94 965 Posted November 14, 2005 Share Posted November 14, 2005 Reviews for newer films just popped up, so everyone can take a chill pill. They include: The Legend of Zorro, Flight Plan, Chicken Little, Corpse Bride and Dreamer.Tim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nightscape94 965 Posted November 14, 2005 Share Posted November 14, 2005 He also said this about one of the tracks on Horner's The Legend of Zorro: "(there's) a minute or so of rapid brass blasts and string pulsation at the end of "The Train" that will make you swear that John Williams' Revenge of the Sith score was playing."

Luke Skywalker 1,795 Posted November 14, 2005 Share Posted November 14, 2005 Who cares about a guy that didnt give ROTS 5 stars just because Joe mocked him in the same issue?Bah... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Incanus 5,715 Posted November 14, 2005 Share Posted November 14, 2005 It is nice to see Clemmensen has started reviewing the newer scores after a long hiatus instead of bashing Williams' old scores. None of the smaller scale drama scores seemed to appeal to Christian's ecclectic tastes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisAfonso 186 Posted November 14, 2005 Share Posted November 14, 2005 But giving a Horner rehash score (however spectacular it may sound) 5 stars? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Incanus 5,715 Posted November 14, 2005 Share Posted November 14, 2005 But giving a Horner rehash score (however spectacular it may sound) 5 stars? Clemmensen is entitled to his opinion but I find my musical tastes being almost total opposite of his. there are very few scores in the past few years I would agree with him. I do not understand that he gave that rehash Zorro 5 stars. Unbelievable I never liked that first Zorro score and if the new one is the same old it probably won't be worth listening to.

ChrisAfonso 186 Posted November 14, 2005 Share Posted November 14, 2005 Well I really like the original Zorro, and he says the new one is basically the same, just more varied orchestral activity and energy... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
