1. Each round, you vote for what you think is the weakest score. After 24 hours, the weakest score will be knocked out, and so on, until there is only one score left - the winner.

2. Each poll is set for 24 hours, any votes AFTER that time won't register.

3. If there is a tie between 2 or more scores, in order to keep things moving along, ALL of them will be knocked out, UNLESS it is the last round where there are only 2 scores left anyway (otherwise both would be knocked out and there would be no winner).

Please report any errors *politely*. :)

HAHAA!! Three scores went of in the last round! Well; for me Midway was not the weakest. It also had one really underrated Williams-theme: the Men of the Yorktown March.

Now I've heard them all except Jaws 2.

I voted for the Towering Inferno (as I have the last few rounds). I just listened to this one again the other day, and while it certainly has its moments, overall, it didn't do much for me.

EDIT: Typo

You have incurred the wrath of Murray, the all-powerful demonic skull! I'm going to put such a curse on you for this lapse of judgement!

.....

That's it, you're cursed! You're going to have such a rash!

That score just never opened to me. I really have tried to like it.

Usually,it's so easy for Mr. Williams to create those haunting themes but not this

time. And maybe my expectations were too high (LSO etc.) this time.

What I love about Dracula is the main theme, so perfect for the character and story, and that I think the score is just pure power. One of Williams' most powerful ever. I could listen to The Death of Dracula over and over and over. I can see how it might be tough to get into, for me though I loved it from the first time I heard it. Most everyone here has a lesser-known Williams' score that they're a big champion of, this is mine.
