    Dom I really like that, do you happen to have a higher resolution version and without the case?
    I love you all. Never change. Well, unless you want to!
  3. Why it seems like now, a soundtrack cover has to be the teaser poster? DH part 2, now this one. It wouldn't be better to have the final poster as a cover?

  7. I don't think it's going to sound like that. It's a film which takes place on the 50, not in modern day.

    "on the 50"??

    I think you mean it takes place in the 40's.

    I'd still have prefered Giacchino to have scored it.

    Only if he would go back to the MOH sound then yes!

    If Joe Johnston doesn't go the route of Kenneth Branagh and ask for a modern sounding score a la THOR then I think this is a great opportunity for Silvestri to return to his epic/adventure sounds of THE MUMMY RETURNS. Johnston said he modeled CAPTAIN AMERICA around RAIDERS OF THE LOST ARK so here's hoping he wants the same from the music. And looking through Johnston's filmography there hasn't been one disappointing score written for any of his films.

    - The Wolfman

    - Hidalgo

    - Jurassic Park III

    - October Sky

    - Jumanji

    - The Pagemaster

    - The Rocketeer

    - Honey, I Shrunk the Kids

    when did the recent remake "Clash of the Titans" take place?

    Just look at the trailer for this film. Look at the "look", style of writing. I think we all know why they hired him for this film, keeping "the A-Team" in mind.

    That kind of Silvestri sound has become way too tiring for me, I'm afraid.

    It's just same old, same old, a relentless noisefest. Either it's me or it's film music that something is wrong with, last year I don't think I bought more than 3 scores to current films.

    Anyone here know, if they are going to release a song/various artists soundtrack? Everywere I look I only see the "Silvestri"-cover... The reason why I ask, is NOT that I want to buy a song album, but that I want to AVOID, buying one by mistake smile

    it happens, SAE sent me the song album of WEDDING CRASHERS instead of Rolfe Kent's score despite my order stating things clearly.

    Have you already listened to the full album?

    Looking at the FSM forums I can't believe so many people getting scoregasms. To me the music sounds loud, repetitive and generic. The "theme" is really only a motif. Just because there aren't electronic "enhancements" like in Silvestri's last couple of scores it doesn't mean it's a good score. It could have been something like Judge Dredd but it seems we're getting another GI Joe. rolleyes

    ^ Bang on! And there are electronics in the score. I'll be featuring the album on the program during my Joe Johnston's special on July 16th... I hope!

  24. We've entered some kind of bizarro universe where Silvestri and J.N.H. are being complained about while Beltrami gets the praise. And one guy praising Henry Jackman.

    That must have been one hell of a spicy taco I had.

    OK, I've never been a big Silvestri fan. But something odd has happened. Inspired by the fabulous, fantastic Captain America, easily the best comic book / superhero score since Spiderman 2, I've been going through a lot of his older scores over the last week or so and have been greatly enjoying what I've found. He has a distinct musical personality - he sounds like himself, he always sounds like himself - he writes big, memorable themes (it would be a short list actually if one tried to write out all the living film composers who've written more of those than he has) - exciting action music - witty comic music - I'm now struggling to think exactly what it was I didn't like.

    Silvestri has always been on/off for me. Love his old synth scores, as well as some of his more poignant efforts, like FORREST GUMP and THE ABYSS, but I've veered more and more away from his bombastic action scores. Too whimsical and...yes, bombastic for my taste these days. Even BACK TO THE FUTURE.
    I am extremely serious.

    Well, yeah... that's what I'd have said about a week ago. Not sure what has brought about this change. Of all the "sub-John Williams" type composers (Debney, Broughton, D Newman etc etc) I think he's easily the best (or at least, the most consistent).

    Silvestri is an on/off composer for me too, though I'm opposite to Thor in that I loathe his synth scores. ( if you want to hear something excruciatingly bad just check out CLAN OF THE CAVE BEAR )

    BACK TO THE FUTURE was the "revelation" score for me back in the day.

    I love CLAN OF THE CAVE BEAR....moody, spacey, otherwordly.

    But I'm even more into his catchy Synclavier things, like FLIGHT OF THE NAVIGATOR, AMERICAN ANTHEM or THE DELTA FORCE.
