    Two major highlights next year - PROMETHEUS (which is THE thing for me) and this one.


    Yep, the only two movies for which I'm willing to spend a ticket on next year.

    Ah yeah, that too, if it comes out next year.

    After all, WAR HORSE doesn't premiere in Norway untill way out in January.
    I am extremely serious.

    Should be interesting!? More importantly it's John Williams scoring another President that gets my mouth watering.

    Ah, yes, I'm looking forward to THE AVENGERS just as much as the two I previously mentioned. Haven't heard of PROMETHEUS until this thread. I'll have to look it up.

    It's an ALIEN prequel, it's Ridley Scott, hopefully back on form.

    I want to see the BATMAN film too.

    Prometheus is the prequel to Alien, directed by Ridley Scott. I take it you're not a big fan of the Alien saga christopher?

    Tim beat me to it.

    And Batman? No, the previous two were as bloated as they were not fun. But that's just me.

    I'm a fan (though mostly of Alien and Aliens), but I hadn't heard of this project either before this thread admittedly. Now that I've seen the teaser trailer and read about it, my interest is piqued.

    Correct. I've only seen parts of those films on TV. Not my kind of thing. A bit too much for me, I'm afraid. I will be interested to hear what fans of the franchise think about Scott's new film, though. And I'll be interested to see who scores it and what they come up with. They've some big shoes to fill.

    Apparently someone composed this suite, based on the themes heard in The Hobbit trailer.

    I like it!

    Does anyone know when the score will be released? (Yes I know, first: summer!)

    THE HOBBIT Underwhelms At 48 Frames Per Second


    This is exactly what I feared. I had a feeling the 48 f/s would look like video.

    Docu-style shooting...

  20. I don't get it, what's wrong with 24 fps. I've never watched a blu-ray and thought it looked jerky. sad

    How does more frames give clearer image quality? Surely it would just be super smooth motion? (Which looks bad enough on those new TV's with stupidly high refresh rates. It shouldn't look that smooth!)
  22. Panning in hi def formats would look a lot better for those who don't like strobing. That's a problem with digital rather than film, mind you. Although I've heard claims that film at 60 fps behaves very differently to film at 24. It also looks 'more like video', which suggests that it isn't entirely about shooting format but the way our eyes follow motion.

  23. Apparently the recording of Howard Shore's music for The Hobbit begins today. And Doug Adams is to write a book about the music. From Doug's blog.

    Thanks for the info Alan. Let's hope the resulting score actually deserves a book wink

    I have no interest in a book but this is the score I'm most looking forward to hearing this year by a long LOOOOOOOOOOOONG way.

  26. Agreed! I am keen to hear what's new, what's familiar, what's hinted at, etc.

    A book will be nice. I have the first music book but it is a bit too technical for me. But I do enjoy flicking through it now and again.

    Well, it certainly has potential and it looks quite good (though I also feel it's too sharp, too refined for a film that should feel more old-fashioned, what the original trilogy did). What's bothering me the most is the music - sure, it's placeholder music for just the trailer and won't affect anything of the finished film, but it just ruins the Lord of the Ringsey feel for me that the teaser DID have, simply because it used (new!) Howard Shore music. Sight and sound just don't gel for me here, at all, to the point that it quite bothers me.

    PR-people, there's over 10 hours of music for this world already there, why not use it?!
