They found Bear, who can do even MORE films and series in a FRACTION of the time it takes Tyler.
And his output is slightly a bit meh lately isn't it ?
Yes and no. I REALLY liked his OUTLANDER album last year. But except for the BASIC INSTINCT-y (sound wise) segments of 10 CLOVERFIELD LANE, that didn't do much for me.I am extremely serious. -

Gods of Egypt Marco Beltrami
If a score manages to top this one in 2016, I will be very suprised.
I certainly hope it does! Gods of Egypt is very entertaining once it gets past its slow start, but that would be a bit of a low bar for the very best of the year. -

No no, not Tyler himself. I didn't put it out correctly. Studios on Tyler. He doesn't get that often assigned anymore. Not as 5 years ago for instance, it's my impression but i might be wrong.
Tyler still does 3-4 projects a year and actually managed to break out of the action film mold (the mold that made me so against his style at the time, because everything almost sounded same-ish, though not quite reaching the low point of the fourth Fast and Furious), now he's doing some more diverse stuff. Have you heard Truth? I think it's one of his best.
And he got in a conflict (from what I heard close to contractual breach on his side) with Marvel, therefore they don't really want him there anymore.http://www.filmmusic.pl - Polish Film Music Review Website -

I haven't (Truth) but some couple of new stuff i heard from him lately weren't really orchestral, i heard a lot of synths and samples and didn't like it. Can't remember the titles.Love Maintitles. It's full of Wanders. -

From what I heard, Tyler was on an exclusive contract for the Avengers. When it came to rescore some of the film, he was either wrapping up or actually even recording the last Fast and Furious 7 instalment, so they had to bring in Elfman to finish the score. You can imagine Marvel wasn't all too happy.http://www.filmmusic.pl - Polish Film Music Review Website -

Oh, and while Expendables 3 is quite underwhelming (I REALLY like the second score though) to say the least, I think Into the Storm is really, really cool. One of his best themes, too, I would say.http://www.filmmusic.pl - Polish Film Music Review Website -

Score and film, flew way under the radar. Also FF7 feels like leftovers or electronic make-overs from fast five. Disappointing.Love Maintitles. It's full of Wanders. -

Gods of Egypt is spectacular! It and Tale of a Lake are going to be hard to beat!

Gods of Egypt is very very good but it's the sort of thing that, in a really strong year like the last couple, usually ends up somewhere around fifth or sixth for me. It's Top 10, maybe even Top 5-worthy but not "score of the year" material IMO, so if that were to really be the highest that 2016 scores ever reach, then yes, that would indeed be disappointing to me. Hope that makes sense. -

HALO 3 - Marty O'Donnell & Mike Salvatori
Still one of my favorite videogame soundtracks. Because it has themes, and memorable ones too. It's a clash of orchestral and electronics, and some vocal goodness thrown in for good measure.
While I listen to these 2 discs of the sounds of Halo, I (Master Chief) imagine being on a virtual battlefield with my assault rifle in hand and killing one no-good terrorist after another, in retaliation of what has transpired in my country.
I.S. sucks, Halo rules !!!!!"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. -

Actually no, I don't believe there has been. One of the last remaining great "oversights", I'd say. I hope one appears soon, if only so that the Joel McNeely additional material sees the light of day (it's quite strong). Although I imagine that (rights etc.) is part of the reason why it hasn't, yet. -

Nightmare on Elm St 2 - Christopher Young
Even early in his career Young was amongst the finest composers of music for genre films. This is first rate - creepy, inventive and with some interesting idea or another being explored in nearly every cue. -

A nice score indeed, but "Escape" was very clearly temped with Zimmer's piece he wrote for the Oscars a few years ago...given your usual temp allergies I can only assume you haven't heard that one? -

C'mon where else would we fans get those precious additional cues of our beloved scores, if not for these unofficial leaks.
Some of the more impressive ones of recent times: Backdraft, Sphere, Batman & Robin (as Elliot himself would've released it).
Until it's released by one of the majors (LLL, Intrada, Varèse), I see no problem 'obtaining' those from the various sources on the net."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.
