    Thanks for the game - see you next year! I never got around to submitting a second set of guesses, sadly.

    Are you going to give the answers?
  9. And here are the winning lottory numbers

    1. Das Boot (1981) by Klaus Doldinger (still purchasable at Screen Archives)
    For a moody score, this track surely gets the blood pumping. Doldinger's famous insertion of the theme here is a winner in all categories. This track is called "Engines Running"

    2. Laputa: Castle in the Sky (1986) by Joe Hisaishi (still purchasable at Screen Archives)
    Fun, catchy and so downright inventive. It could only be Joe Hisaishi. This track is called "A Mining Town"

    3. Triumph of the Spirit (1989) by Cliff Eidelman (still purchasable at Screen Archives)
    One of the very first scores by long forgotten composer Cliff Eidelman, and yet still one of his best. The soaring theme and the choral cry for emotion are simply a perfect match. This track is called “Main Title”

    4. Beastmaster 2: Through the Portal of Time (1991) by Robert Folk (still purchasable at Screen Archives)
    I always liked Folk’s style and one of most soaring themes is for the dud Beastmaster 2 film. The 10 minute track is having this final main theme statement, but what a whopper of a track it is. This track is called “Dar the Hero”

    5. Wyatt Earp (1994) by James Newton Howard
    It seemed a lot of people didn’t get the fish man hint and yet that was simply Waterworld (JNH’s biggest score). Before that he wrote a wonderful score for Wyatt Earp and one of the many soaring moments is heard here. This track is called “Nicholas Springs Wyatt”

    6. Terminal Velocity (1994) by Joel McNeely (still purchasable at Screen Archives)
    Proof abound that Joel McNeely needs better orchestral efforts. Terminal Velocity is a kick ass ride at times. But it’s all fine and relaxing when we hear this resolving finish. This track is called “Russian Gold”

    7. A Little Princess (1995) by Patrick Doyle (still purchasable at Screen Archives)
    I basically put the title in the tip, because the theme isn't exactly Doyle sounding. But what a beautiful theme for a beautiful score nonetheless. This track is called "Touched by an Angel"

    8. Fly Away Home (1996) by Mark Isham
    One of Isham's most endearing scores is for Fly Away Home, and the theme he establishes here shows why. Sadly so far this score is still unreleased and I wonder why because it surpasses 80% of released Isham scores like that. This track is called "First Flight"

    9. The Hunchback of Notre Dame (1996) by Alan Menken
    Ahhh, Menken's score is finally not childlike at all. One of Disney's most mature or even inappropriate creations for children receives one of Menken's best. Believe me but the choral work over the entire score is simply awesome. This track is called "Paris Burning"

    10. Moll Flanders (1996) by Mark Mancina
    Alongside Bad Boys came Moll Flanders. And it captured a stunning main theme and this great suspense cue. Shows Mancina is still one of the earliest and probably best MV composers that can hack it. This track is called "Sparrows"

    11. Oscar and Lucinda (1997) by Thomas Newman
    He does it too few but when he does it, it's heavenly. If the years weren't an issue I would received a lot of Angels in America responses. But this unheard of film receives the treasure of one of Newman's most heavenly choral cues. This track is called "The Church of Glass"

    12. G.J.Jane (1997) by Trevor Jones
    The old famous Suck my ... quote. Well she didn't look pretty in this movie but I think many wouldn't mind. One of the few Ridley Scott movies that didn't have a MV composer, perhaps that's why it sounds so MV alike. And that's why it was probably used in the trailer of Armageddon. This track is called "Endurance"

    13. Durango (1999) by Mark McKenzie (still purchasable at Screen Archives & Intrada Records)
    A beautiful soaring theme made me introduce for the very first time to Mark McKenzie's music. A really good old fashioned dramatic score with such melodies is always a good thing. This track is called "Durango Suite"

    14. Animal Farm (1999) by Richard Harvey
    This is one of the few soundtracks I recommend to everybody, because it holds something of everything. A bold, lush, orchestral, choral score with many themes and many moments. But above all a main theme that is amazingly good. You heard it here, now hear the rest. This track is called "End Titles"

    15. Dungeons & Dragons (2000) by Justin Caine Burnett
    To my knowledge nobody guessed this and I understand why. Perhaps they knew that Hans meant Hans Zimmer but everybody looked for a video game, and not a film of the video game. Put alongside it the fact the movie was heralded bad and you have the reason why no one guessed this. Nonetheless the orchestral score received a CD release and it proves the young man has skills, the sad fact is that he never showed it in another film. This track is called "The Maze"

    16. Journey of Man (2000) by Benoit Jutras
    Again a hard nut to crack. But what a wonderful score. This CD of a movie version of Cirque du Soleil's received one orchestral pleaser and long time collaborate composer Benoit Jutras showed he could compose too.. This track is called "Journey of Man (Instrumental)"

    17. Spirited Away (2001) by Joe Hisaishi (still purchasable at Screen Archives)
    If they guessed the 2nd cue, they immediately found this cue. One of Hisaishi's finest scores of all, Spirited Away is a breeze to hear. This track is called "Procession of the Gods"

    18. Kilimanjaro: To the Roof of Africa (2002) by Alan Williams (still purchasable at Screen Archives & Intrada Records)
    The name was easy, but almost everyone guessed Amazon. True it's perhaps his most known. But this theme is a wonderful one too and it makes the album so much better. This track is called "Main Title"

    19. Intolerable Cruelty (2003) by Carter Burwell (still purchasable at Screen Archives)
    The name of the cue was in the tip and yet most people missed it. I understand Burwell's not the most adored composer but I love his style, his sound. This is typically him. This track is called "Love is Good"

    20. The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy (2005) by Joby Talbott (theme by Eagle Bernie Leadon) (still purchasable at Screen Archives)
    Both answers were correct, but it's true that the theme heard here is not from Talbott. See Wikepedia's link for a clearer understanding. I nonetheless loved it and it was the first musical moment I adored in the movie. This track is called "Journey of the Sorcerer
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/One_of_These_Nights

    Bonus: Hellboy (2004) by Marco Beltrami
    Indeed one of the greatest scores and the best theme, and it's not even on the CD. It appeared during the movie in various guises (soft in Meeting Hellboy but the version of Varese deleted this theme) and around whirling strings in Light my Fire. But the biggest performance was in the end credits and the suite on the 2 CD recording sessions. Luckily I heard it first on Marco's website. This track is called "B.P.R.D. Suite"

    waaaaaahhhhhhhh!!! Where's my nut? arrrghhhhhhh
  10. Some good tracks there. I should have identified a few more than I did.

    Maybe if no-one has any clips I'll submit some at the weekend.

    Whoa! I did check Beltrami's site and fast forwarded through those Hellboy clips. I must have skipped through that entire section you used for the game.

    Good game and congrats to JuPe and TomTom!

    Beastmaster 2 and The Hunchback of Notre Dame to name a few, but most of the tracks were interesting. You have really found some hidden treasures.
  13. I should have figured out at least 5 more than I did, as I have them all. Clearly I don't listen enough to CASTLE IN THE SKY, WYATT EARP, MOLL FLANDERS and others. shame dizzy smile

  14. Hey, good game, for once I could compete with the others. I'm amazed I found as much as I did. Maybe I will play again... Well, congrats to the winners! beer

    Should have done better with the clues too!

    That MOLL FLANDERS one did ring a bell...

    The funny thing is I did listen through the first four tracks of SPIRITED AWAY, thinking that 17 must have been a Hisaishi, but got distracted and never continued. (It didn't seem close enough!)
