Guess the Score XXXIII: The Unheard Off Game

if you really check the hints and read them carefully, it might be easier than you would think

I know, these are clips that haven't been released yet, but the difficulty hasn't stopped Ranietz

I give up. This is way too hard!

I'll be completely honest when I say I've only ever heard ONE of those scores. The rest I worked out just by the clues.

I'll listen again later today... I think I've heard some of them somewhere, but I can't remember where!

I went to download the clips but the link has expired. Could you re-upload it?

Mya improves her points, showing she knows more than just Disney alone

1. Ranietz: 46 points
2. Southal: 32 points
3. Miya: 23 points
4. Plindboe: 14 points
5. Anthony: 10 points

Last chance anybody, tomorrow I post the answers and then the wanted level om some scores will commence

Some scores will be more wanted now

I started on this, but I have to say I find 26 clips rather daunting.
I appreciate all the work gone into 'em, assuredly, but I would suggest -basically to everyone- for future games to go back to a 10-12 track game. It's just a lot more accessible that way.

Or am I a voice crying in the wilderness?

Thanks! Will do this tonight for sure!

Fair enough, in that case I'll bow out gracefully.

Yes JS.

What the eye doesn't see is goose for the gander.

I was indeed saying, that some scored could become quite wanted now you've heard a piece of them

12. Coen, Coen, oh well for once not a Coen but a sports score

14. if you count the dogs you'll need to count a lot, from the composer of sample 2 and 11
A: 102 Dalmatians (David Newman) Nuff said

15. he's wanted, he's a black beauty, he's zany, he's magical

16. South African composer scores African picture, and no it is not Trevor Jones
A: Whispers (Trevor Rabin) The only other known South African composer I know shows you a Lion King adventure

17. I know it looked corny in the movie, at least he introduced us to bullet time
A: Behind Enemy Lines (Don Davis) Bullet Time composer or the phrase that made The Matrix legendary received a choral resolution that overdid it in the movie, but still it sounds so stunning nonetheless

18. a sports drama in the hood, the bullet time actor shows the kids he's ready to change
A: Hardball (Mark Isham) Bullet Time actor Keanu Reeves teaches these kids about respect, this scene underscore the funeral speech which is utterly beautiful

19. I got glass up my ass. Just another foul mouth quote from this actor, who's buddy is shooting like james bond,from the composer of 16
A: Bad Company (Trevor Rabin) all quotes when Chris Rock is being shot in the chase scene, this is this music

20. one of the actor's biggest errors, but the score surely sounds magical. And one track on the album? His fans are still haunted by nightmares!
A: The Haunted Mansion (Mark Mancina) This is still one of Eddie Murphy's biggest flops, but Mancina made the most of it

21. I know, it reminds you of Zimmer's True Romance, but this composer just couldn't remember something for longer than a day. Dates Man DATES
A: 50 First Dates (Teddy Castellucci) The composer inspired himself to Hans Zimmer's quirky guitar play, in this movie about Dating

22. remake, remake, it is like 300 men who watch you

23. there is hell to pay, and to think Varese released it. Oh boy
A: Hellboy (Marco Beltrami) Varese released but a portion of the composer's best score, the name was in the hint

24. a tale like no other, a true story, a composer who gives it his best, and only an itunes release, pfff if the 8 dogs could howl
A: 8 Below (Mark Isham) A true story about 8 dogs left behind, sadly only released on Itunes

25. action that doesn't belong in Disney, he that doesn't belong in Disney, the movie on the other hand is Disney all the way, video release
A: Cinderella III (Joel McNeely) Joel McNeely sadly composes too much for Disney, this video release captures action music that is way too good for that

Bonus: This is for the only real diehards, it is not for a film, but at least it was composed by a filmmusic (too early deceased) god. The other piece of the event, composed by the most famous composer was released on CD under a special compilation
A: Only BhelPuri guessed this, it was the 2002 Olympic Winter Games opening of sadly deceased composer Michael Kamen. This one was really hard I know, but the music is simply magnificent. Remember John Williams music was released on a CD (American Journey)

Tough game, Thomas. But some of the clips were very nice. I'll give it another listen and figure out which ones I'd like to listen more.

I guess it helped that I was listening to Kamen's Concerto for Guitar w/ Tomoyasu Hotei a couple of weeks ago. That guitar part in the bonus cue reminded me of it.
