You didn't know Jacob's theme?? Blimey, it was played enough during season 6!
I know all Lost melodies in my ears, most of them i sing along as they play. But i don't recall which one's used where, at least not for everyone and particularly in the last 2-3 seasons where things weren't completely....normal
I am the opposite to Anthony you can say But anyway, my question is why are people barking about the lack of the theme from cd season 5? Isn't that on that cd, during the final tracks? At least this is what i remember but i might be mistaken.
Only half the music that should have been on the soundtrack actually was. It's missing the brilliant ending (1:17-to end) that I've added on The Four Trombones. -

Last time i remember wanting something from LOST so much, was that piece in s4 that accompanied Jack's and the others' little boat trip thingy where he and Juliet were standing in front of the white boat.......the other equally gorgeous pieces of music which i am dying to get are 1. richard's episode music and 2. the music from the ending of the series, final episode of s6. I'd not mind for Jacob's and lights' themes either God, i love that series. Seriously. Best stuff Giacchino ever written, for me.Love Maintitles. It's full of Wanders. -

I think his Lost scores benefited from having so much time to develop, and so many ways in which to develop. That's partly the reason it's so good. But I don't think I'd listen to the Lost music that much -if at all- had I not seen the show. The music is good in its own right, but I think he's written better music (ala Ratatouille for example). His Lost music does have that strong connection with a show I greatly enjoy, and that's generally why I return to it. -

NP: Street Fighter IV (Hideyuki Fukasa)
Just lots of driving beats and a few catchy melodies. Best part is probably the remixes of SFII themes on Disc 2.''The mandate, as well as the benefit, of responsibility is the ability to tell when one can afford to be irresponsible.'' - Me -

Heh, well I never mind a good bit of criticism. I wouldn't be a Horner fan otherwise. But I'm just stating that being a highly intellectual and profound composer doesn't necessarily mean you'll be producing listenable stuff (like T.Newman and Shore's non-LotR stuff), and yet sometimes a very light and uncomplex composer like Edelman can be endlessly fun (like Dragonheart, Anaconda, Daylight...)
NP: Ice Age 3
Buck's Theme is, I believe, Powell's most complex and longest-lined theme to date. After listening to this, CANNOT get it out of my head for days. That and also the criminally-underused "Buck's Return" theme heard in the track of the same name and the end credits.
Buck's theme is my favorite of the new themes. The Dinosaurs also had a very nice theme. And of course Holst references. -

There are some films and TV shows where the music becomes such an integral part, that it is hard to imagine the images seen on screen with any other music. Lots of movies have done that, such as Jaws, Star Wars, etc
The music in Lost is arguably just as essential. It has created an identity for the show. The story may have been confusing, but the music always found a way to create a consistent sound that held the crazy plot twists together into a cohesive whole. I seriously don't think the show would have been as good with any other music.

I'm sure we will get similar music from season 6. I remember the Jacob theme being used a lot. -

No! It is absolutely no torture porn! I've actually seen people on a dutch filmforum complain about the film because of the lack of violence, calling it 'boring'. Oh, how they just don't get it...
It's much more psychological suspense, and ultimately frightening in a political way. Since it was, wrongly, advertised as 'SAW meets CUBE', a lot of people got the wrong idea, but it's actually a lot better than you'd think. See it! -

Not at all. It is a tense, claustrophobic, intelligent movie. Don't let the director ('Darkness Falls', 'The Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The Beginning') mislead you. It is a must see. Can't understand why it was so underestimated.Anything with an orchestra or with a choir....at some point will reach you -

The score elevates it beautifully for sure, I've actually come to appreciate the score even more after I saw it. It's one of those rare scores that completely attaches itself to the film and couldn't have been in any way different from what he composed. -

That's what put me off as well! But when I ultimately saw it, because of the music, I was like: "what? This director did The Texas Chainsaw: The Beginning?! What a waste of talent!" -

It's sad that it's overlooked, the score; Tyler did a much different job on that one than what people accuse him for. And he did a good job indeed.Love Maintitles. It's full of Wanders. -

In case you want to watch the first TEN MINUTES. You already get an idea how the score works and sets the mood (NO spoilers).Anything with an orchestra or with a choir....at some point will reach you -

Oh, and whatever you do, DO NOT watch the trailer! You don't want to be spoiled. Trust me. (and, as apparantly you can watch the whole film on YouTube, please don't - I can imagine it kills all of the suspense
).

Love the typewriter-driven main theme. The rest of the score isn't bad either, but meanders a little too softly and quetly for me, making me lose interest after a while.'no passion nor excitement here, despite all the notes and musicians' ~ Falkirkbairn -

The Karate Kid - James Horner
This is growing to be one of my most loved Horners of recent years, it features so much understated loveliness and has a really fine main theme. The problem with it is that it doesn't flow like the best. But I still like it a lot. The last cue is great and shows Horner at his best: to end a score properly and spectacularly. And he didn't need a song to do it.
I like this more than Avatar and I wonder if I'm the only one.

I definitely like it just as much as Avatar. Not sure about more, they're such different concepts that it's difficult to compare. For emotional impact, definitely Karate Kid.I love you all. Never change. Well, unless you want to! -

The Last Airbender - JNH
Now this is the way it's meant to be heard: LOUD ON A GOOD AUDIO SYSTEM. This score oozes orchestral power out of its pores. I'm enjoying it infinitely more this way. One should never judge a score of this size by listening to it on an MP3 player where the real power just can't be experienced. I'm definitely going to order it now, because it really has some great exciting moments where before I completely missed the point of their purpose.
It's no Waterworld, but I can live with this monster which is in a whole other league.
