Travod Posted June 24, 2012 Share Posted June 24, 2012 MK wasn't very original. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Impact Posted June 24, 2012 Author Share Posted June 24, 2012 MK wasn't very original. Just looked it up. Here from Wikipedia: The role of Benjamin Britten's music A major feature of the film is music by Benjamin Britten, a composer notable for his many works for children's voices. At the Cannes Film Festival, during the post-screening press conference, Wes Anderson said that Britten's music "had a huge effect on the whole movie, I think. The movie's sort of set to it. The play of Noye's Fludde that is performed in it - my older brother and I were actually in a production of that when I was ten or eleven, and that music is something I've always remembered, and made a very strong impression on me. It is the colour of the movie in a way."[10] The music by Britten used in the film, many of the tracks taken from recordings conducted or supervised by the composer himself, includes The Young Person's Guide to the Orchestra (Introduction/Theme; Fugue), conducted by Leonard Bernstein; Friday Afternoons ('Cuckoo'; 'Old Abram Brown'); Simple Symphony ('Playful Pizzicato'); Noye's Fludde (various excerpts, including the processions of animals into and out of the ark, and 'The spacious firmament on high'); and A Midsummer Night's Dream ('On the ground, sleep sound').

Impact Posted July 3, 2012 Author Share Posted July 3, 2012 Brave had a fantastic score. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AniNate Posted July 3, 2012 Share Posted July 3, 2012 I could see Moonrise Kingdom getting in, if only because of how much the movie itself loves its score Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ddddeeee Posted July 5, 2012 Share Posted July 5, 2012 Isn't there only 17 minutes or so of original score? I doubt it's eligible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ecstasy Posted July 5, 2012 Share Posted July 5, 2012 James Newton Howard is gonna do the Bourne Legacy score. I really love John Powell's work in the Bourne Movies. The score for Bourne Supremacy is my favorite score ever. Hopefully, JNH gets the job done for Legacy. Should be good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Impact Posted July 6, 2012 Author Share Posted July 6, 2012 I can see Brave being nominated easily here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4815162342 Posted July 7, 2012 Share Posted July 7, 2012 If John Carter hadn't Hiroshima-ed itself, I'd expect Giacchino's score to be a second-tier contender for this award. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Impact Posted July 7, 2012 Author Share Posted July 7, 2012 That film had an amazing score, it was a great film all together.(48 if it was CAYOM it probably would of made 200M ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eXtacy Posted July 19, 2012 Share Posted July 19, 2012 Dark Knight Rises has an amazing score! You can sketch it in for nomination Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ddddeeee Posted July 19, 2012 Share Posted July 19, 2012 There's no way TDKR is 70% original. I'd be shocked if it wasn't disqualified. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4815162342 Posted August 27, 2012 Share Posted August 27, 2012 So, almost eight months in and the only film released so far with a decent chance at a nom here is John Carter, though some online pundits say Beasts of the Southern Wild has a shot.TDKR isn't getting anywhere near this award since the majority of its work is easily a retread of motifs and generic action music from BB and TDK.

ddddeeee Posted August 29, 2012 Share Posted August 29, 2012 John Carter has no chance. If any film released so far has a shot, and I'm not sure that any do, it's Brave. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
acsc1312 Posted August 30, 2012 Share Posted August 30, 2012 (edited) It's basically up to our big contenders now. Lincoln, The Master, et al. Is Desplat doing anything this year (besides MK, as it's mostly Young Person's Guide to the Orchestra)? If so, then that.

Impact Posted August 30, 2012 Author Share Posted August 30, 2012 I'm pretty sure Brave will be nominated. (That had an amazing score btw) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoolioD1 Posted August 30, 2012 Share Posted August 30, 2012 (edited) I'm predicting Brave as well... I'm not sure about The Master. Could it be disqualified for whatever reason that There Will Be Blood was? Edited August 30, 2012 by CoolioD1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
acsc1312 Posted August 30, 2012 Share Posted August 30, 2012 I'm predicting Brave as well... I'm not sure about The Master. Could it be disqualified for whatever reason that There Will Be Blood was?I think they changed the rules right after that year. I doubt Greenwood would risk it with this film anyway.
