    "The lack of creative composing has never been any weaker than now."
    From Thomas' latest review here on maintitles.net

    Doesn't this imply that the level of creativity is bigger than ever?

    shame ehh, yeah sorry about that. I just didn't quite feel it was my place to criticize that. Didn't want to come off unappreciative of the review. And besides, I got what you were trying to say.

    So far, H. G-W's "mature" scores have left me unconvinced that he can keep the interest level up while writing serious music. That's why I fall back onto Borrowers. That is uncompromisingly fun. Veronica Guerin, Spy Game, Metal Gear Solid, yeh, that's "serious" but not entirely entertaining, nor even that beautiful in a lyrical kind of way. A bloke like James Horner has always been able to keep me fascinated even with his serious thriller scores like Patriot Games and Clear and Present Danger.

    Kingdom of Heaven though, I agree, has some very enjoyable moments.

    Same here, and Man on fire. And GONE BABY GONE. But they're essentially re-takes on SPY GAME.

  20. Man on Fire is for me his masterpiece when it comes to functionality.

    I'm a big fan of his Spy Game score. It basically revolutionized the whole modern/electronic/world spy movie genre. It's full of diverse sound and arrangemetns with tons of thematic and melodic ideas. It worked extremely well in the movie and isn't boring as a standalone listening experience. Only Man on Fire comes close, though in a slightly different approach.

    Well, yeah, it's a very influential score for many composers. I know few will actually admit it but SPY GAME is everywhere these days, in little bits and pieces. From all the RC composers, to all the young, non-RC but Hollywood based ones, and from BRIAN TYLER to POWELL and his bourne scores . I'd also consider SPY GAME - apart from being very influential, that is, to be also a perfect score for its genre and movie it accompanies. Almost flawless.

    Spy Game may have revolutionized the genre, but I think it was really tweaked to perfection a year later with Powell's Bourne Identity. Spy Game deserves the credit for having done it first, but Bourne gets my vote for most fun listening experience, hands down.

  27. if you want to hear music of Harry Gregson Williams lovely The Borrowers over the trailer of Ice Age 3, I've now put the link for your disposal

    The various songs that pop up in the trailer were already used (I can't make it that good as well) but I've tried to do my best in putting music around it

    I hope you like it

    I don't care how "epic" they say it is, I still feel HGW was the wrong composer for this movie. Nonetheless...

    X-MEN ORIGINS: WOLVERINE
    Original Motion Picture Soundtrack

    Music Composed by Harry Gregson-Williams

    X-MEN ORIGINS: WOLVERINE, the first chapter in the X-MEN saga, unites Wolverine (Hugh Jackman) with several other legends of the X-MEN universe, in an epic revolution that pits the mutants against powerful forces determined to eliminate them.

    The X-MEN series has already generated more than $600 million at the U.S. box office — and each film has been more successful than the last. X-MEN ORIGINS: WOLVERINE is destined to be one of the big blockbusters of the summer movie season.

    The X-MEN ORIGINS saga kicks off with an epic symphonic score by Harry Gregson-Williams (The Chronicles Of Narnia, Kingdom Of Heaven, Man On Fire).

    20th Century Fox opens X-MEN ORIGINS: WOLVERINE nationwide on May 1.

    Varèse Sarabande Catalog #: 302 066 967 2
