It's a little confusing. Am I correct with the following?
Deep Blue is the movie version of The Blue Planet.
Earth is the movie version of Planet Earth.
I think both feature films are wonderful on their own, as I'm only known with those.
You're right. Earth is literally clips from the tv series and while the score is freshly-recorded, it's the same - a bunch of cues from Planet Earth without much variation. Deep Blue on the other hand is a bit more different from the tv series. The Blue Planet isn't as awe-inspiring as Planet Earth, but it's still wonderful. (And the score is on the same level as Planet Earth.) -

About Atlantis:
One of the more surprising animated Disney movies out there. Style and story are quite different from what we´re used to get from the House of Mouse. For me, it´s the best movie of that last bunch they did shortly before Eisner killed the classic animation department. And the score ist quite wonderful. It starts like business as usual, and then, suddenly, you get hit, and very hard, with some of the most breathtaking epic scoring JNH has ever done. -

NP: The Miracle Worker - William Goldstein
Switched over to sample this TV score - and it's a stunner!
A score for a relatively small ensemble (including woodwinds, strings & acoustic guitar) it's a heartfelt score that sounds, to me, imbued with a subtle Americana feel without being out-and-out patriotic (if that makes sense).
Hmmm, sounds right up my alley, Alan.
Where were you able to procure this one?

As with a lot of my recent purchases, this one was a download:

Download or CD-R... Hm. That's slightly disappointing.
Thanks for the links, though, Alan.

Aw MAN! The steeldrums are the exact same thing he did in Commando (which I love incidentally).
I was hoping for something a bit more...well...different.'no passion nor excitement here, despite all the notes and musicians' ~ Falkirkbairn -

48 Hours came first.
Sorry bud. It didn't even occur to me to mention it's similarity to Commando but on the other hand you didn't ask if it was similar to Commando.On Friday I ate a lot of dust and appeared orange near the end of the day ~ Bregt -

I don't mind. And I wasn't blaming you!
And I honestly don't care which one happened to be first. I was just hoping that Horner had something cool with steel drums twice rather than just once in two different scores.
Oh well.

NP:Bolt (powell)
I can't say I prefer this one over his most crazy animation scores (For example, Horton). But Bolt is a great come back to his more balanced style we heard In Paycheck or Evolution.DemonStar wrote
Yup, really fun score. Great main theme and very good action writing too. Love it!
I've seen the movie tonight and i can't believe how people prefer all over the place, disorganized and messy mickey mousing over proper grand themes, proper thematic, motific and melodic development and coherence that is the Bolt score.
Bolt is a nice movie, where the Score fits like a globe.
Bolt and Horton are very diferent movies thought. Horton Hears a Who! needs this kind of over the top and crazy music because Dr Seus world is crazy too. So it's perfect.
About the mikey mousing thing, I can say the only powell animated score with a lot of Mickey Mousing is Ice Age 3.
NP:BOlt (Powell)
I love the Agent Cody banks, Paychek and Evolution orcestrations. And for more I love Horton or Happy feet, I rather prefer this not so over the top orcestrations from his previous scores.
The End Credits is a great suite of the best moments. -

Medal of Honor Frontline (Mike Giacchino)
Technically I played this yesterday, but the music's every bit in my mind today... Could I ever forget it. No! It's too fantastic for that. Truly great spectacular sounding album. I wish every score album since could have a recording / mixing as heard on this one. Giacchino hit a homerun with this."considering I've seen an enormous debate here about The Amazing Spider-Man and the ones who love it, and the ones who hate it, I feel myself obliged to say: TASTE DIFFERS, DEAL WITH IT" - Thomas G. -

For some reason I'm enjoying a lot this score today.
It's uninspired, and it's real mess. Silvestri needs to go to new territories, but this sound reminds me my old days as a score fan. -

So in what era did he write this, what would you say it sounds the most like? I'm never sure with these obscure titles if I will like it.

You checked my profile? If it's in that "standard" 60s sound I think you may be right. I've always had a problem with older scores / recordings.
Fields of Freedom (Trevor Jones)
Another splendid high quality theme from Jones. His themes over the years have always had that epic, lyrical feel to it, for this one its an appropriate heroic hymn-like melody. But I don't know what's wrong with the performance. It sounds very subdued, drum rolls (or what do you call it?) sound very in the background, know what I mean, like they couldn't get a full workout? With a proper sound engineer or mixer this could've been much better. Or maybe it's just the quality of these damned compressed files?
