    Well, it's hard for "Signs" to reach "Waterworld" when "Waterworld" is so far below it. ;-)

    I just watched The Last Airbender trailer that many of you have been talking about.. Can't wait for this music. Seems like it will be a very exciting score. I'd love to see him incorporate ethnic instruments. The trailer teased at that.

    I wouldn't hold your breath. I mean, if he fucks this up, he doesn't deserve any more chances.

    for me, he can continue to direct 100 movies more, if a doosh like Uwe Boll can continue to direct crap, then Shyamalan should continue to direct as well wink

  9. Yeah, at least Shyamalan has a distinct visual style.

    I don't know a thing of the anime, but it is Shyamalan and he does something different, so syked punk


    Avatar: The Last Airbender is an American-produced show with heavy anime influences, but it's not anime. There's a definite distinction between Airbender and actual anime, like Miyazaki's films or the jerky cheap stuff like Pokemon and Yu-Gi Oh!.

    Peter Pan is one of my favorite James Newton Howard score, but i am disappointed with score album. There are few tracks which are great but many cues which were used in the movies aren't there in album. I just watch movie than listen to the album. In movies, lot of music are there ( Just like Hook). I am expecting complete score of both Peter Pan and Hook.
    Racism, Prejudices and discrimination exists everywhere.

    Also check out Joel McNeely's Return To Never Land. A worthy entry into the Peter Pan music world, and about 40 min of score on the OST, quite long compared to the average Disney direct-to-video soundtrack.

    Peter Pan is a nice score by Howard, and there are indeed a couple of good tracks missing on the score. But sadly that's the case with a lot of albums today, I guess everyone has his own favourite tracks, whether included or not

    I love his style, whatever he's up to , i am always eager to watch his latest work. I can't find one movie (apart Lady in the Water) that he made and i truly didn't like.
    Love Maintitles. It's full of Wanders.

    Haven't listened to Unbreakable yet. And I hope Last Airbender reaches at least the second spot too!

    To be perfectly honest, his Shyamalan scores are not my thing. Too much suspense, sneaking-around cues and tension. I'm more in the WATERWORLD, WYATT EARP, DINOSAUR-territory. I DO like some of his more textural scores too, though, like SNOW FALLING ON CEDARS and SAINT OF FORT WASHINGTON.
    I am extremely serious.

    Thor, i see what you're saying but his Shyamalan scores also bear a lot of intensive emotions and melody, for instance "be with you" from the happening, just to name one.
    Love Maintitles. It's full of Wanders.

    You've mentioned the only four non-Shyamalan scores by him which I think come into the same banner of quality (I hated Saint of Fort Washington) as the Shyamalan ones. Surprised if you don't like The Village, at least.

  23. 1 - The Village
    2 - Signs
    3 - Lady in the Water
    4 - Unbreakable
    5 - The Happening
    6 - Sixth Sense

    The best other JNH Scores:

    1 - King Kong
    2 - Wyatt Earp
    3 - Atlantis

    No mention of Dinosaur? I'd rank that easily as his second best work ever.
  25. Nope. There are some good tracks on it, one even great (guess which), but the rest does nothing for me, while I enjoy the hell out of the magnitude of the mentioned three.

    Dinosaur is better than Wyatt Earp IMHO.

    If I have to pick only one Howard/Shyamalan score as my favorite, that would be Lady in the Water. To me it's easily one of the best scores from the composer in the last few years. It's generally an easy and enveloping listening experience, it has magical instrumentation, intelligent layers of sound, memorable themes, and... boy, it has one hell of a finale.

    I guess I´m just addicted to the multitude and beauty of Wyatt Earp´s themes. They are so rich and evoke a lot more feelings in me than any one track of Dinosaur. It has nothing to do with the movies, BTW; I saw both of them, just once, and like/disliked them both in a similar fashion.

    I'd choose Signs and Village before that, but Lady In The Water is undoubtedly in the third position. The Great Eatlon has to be one of the best cues ever by JNH!

    Lady has extremely beautiful themes and a hell of a finale, but overall, there is a lot of stuff on it that´s just ... not as good, and Signs is a fantastic score right from the beginning to the end with quite addictive themes, and The Village is just perfect. There are some extraordinarily beautiful tracks missing from the OST that break my heart every time I watch the movie, because they are based on the other material and lift it even above the greatness of what´s on the OST.

    Try this one (up to the end!):
