    Hey, I love the music, and I even love the music in the film. But the film itself is too "America is so FUCKING awesome" for my taste. (Though it can be fun after a few beers.)


    The film is a total bag o' shite jingoistic tosh but afer a few beers it IS awesome entertainment when watched with friends biggrin cool beer


    And isn't it funny that quite a few of the over-the-top culturally conservative patriotic films made in America are made... by Germans! Dean Devlin and Roland Emmerich (Germany) made ID4 and The Patriot. Wolfgang Peterson (Germany) made Air Force One and The Perfect Storm. So what's going on there? wink


    Bad film making unless I'm mistaken ol' chum! rolleyes wink

    NP: Sideways - Rolfe Kent

    It's a gorgeous day here after a long week of rain and this is a great summery little pop-jazz score which really puts you in a good mood.

    NP: Contact - Alan Silvestri

    A very thoughtfully composed score, with just as much reflective moments as gung ho action, Silvestri style. The film is one of my favorites, and the music just works wonders in it, with that magical touch like in nearly all Zemeckis/Silvestri collaborations. One of the composer's finest IMO.

    4 STARS

    NP: Judge Dredd - Alan Silvestri

    Ya baby! Full epic Silvestri! One of his finest scores!

    -Erik-


    One of my favorites as well. Highly propulsive, martial, score topped with some very effective melodramatics.


    You said it! "Judgement Day" is the perfect example. While the "I Am The Law" line in the film is laughable for some reason I get goosebumps watching that scene because of Silvestri's score. Same goes with the President's speech in ID4. Totally corny - both speech and music - but they work off each other so well that it surprisingly works and gives me goosebumps and almost moves me to tears.

    -Erik-


    When I read your post Erik, I couldn't agree more. Silvestri is da bomb in Judge Dredd, and ID4 is a total winner, music and film wise. I totally enjoy it each and every time, goosebumps, thrills and laughs aplenty.

    And I'm not american...

    I was playing:Tomorrow Never Dies (Arnold)

    I can't finish never the listening. I find it boring.

    I love some cues like "kobooy bay", "All day's work" ...and of Course, "Backseat Driver". But the rest...( special mention to Bike chase with this over the top Taikos....)

    Surrender theme is one gorgeous, though.If only it was more used in the score...

    I prefer Arnold's posteriors efforts in Bond movies than this one (Yes, even Die another Day)


    First of all posterior means ass.
    Second of all how the feck can you find Tomorrow Never Dies boring? Crazy fanboy.

    It's quite clearly still Arnold's best Bond score. Even he himself said he threw everything into that score, he felt he needed to prove his worth on that film, and didn't imagine he'd still be scoring the Bond films.

    Of course I love every Arnold-Bond score, but Tomorrow Never Dies will probably always remain my favourite.

    I'm trying to understand what that means... was it making love to men? Was it pink? Did it feature the Village People?

    I've got to agree with you there. He's said many a time that he did everything he wanted to do in that score and has had to keep trying to come up with new stuff ever since. How Jordi can claim it is boring boggles the mind. dizzy

  2. John Debney - Sudden Death

    Good action score from the usually comedy guy and interestingly, rather overlooked. Sounds a bit JNH meets Goldsmith, but if you are aware of some rhythmic sensibilities it foreshadows the more succesful score to End of Days (from the same director, incidentally).

    Good score from times when the Zimmerish ensemble prevailed without the scores sounding like Zimmer himself.
