Score and soundtracks - 2015 discussion

Recommended Posts







What was the last good Spielberg & Williams collaboration? War of the Worlds?

 

War of the Worlds has a strong score (on par with War Horse), but Munich, Lincoln and Tintin had better scores, IMHO

After my first surprise of the year (Jupiter Ascending), I have finally listened to another great score: Wolf Totem, from James Horner. Still in my first listening right now, but great theme and some really strong cues from a strangely forgotten composer

Cinderella's the best score so far on album and in context of the movie. Wolf Totem's a big return to form for Horner, Jupiter Ascending is great but lacks quality themes to push it to the top, Elfman's Fifty Shades is lovely, Jackman's Kingsman is alright, I liked Zimmer's Chappie more than most, Tyler's Furious 7 is autopilot and Beltrami's The Seventh Son is one of his best.

 

Been a great year so far.

Best tracks from Cinderella? I know you love Doyle, so nothing really surprising with your choice  :P

I do love Doyle but even so these are a set-up from his recent output. These two are incredible in context, the latter catching every single detail in the chase.

Neither Powell nor Silvestri worked on Avengers 2 stripe.

 

LOL

 

I always get confused with Tyler / Powell. :unsure: I don't know why

 

Silvestri's themes are still a big part of AoU, that's why I named him.

 

Fixed
