[Closed, Sink] Now Playing XXXVIII

Violence, however virtual, will NOT be condoned on these kindly, peaceful boards.


Oh...wait...


I'm getting some flashbacks here from early-day ScoreReviews days with some very nice, very knowledgeable, but quite fanatical members, who simply had to leave or their hearts might explode from sheer involvement. I agree with Alan: if you find the virtual world to absorb you to the detriment or exclusion of the real one, maybe it's indeed a good idea to take a little step back.

But don't let me catch you posting on FSM, Intrada or the other ones behind our backs, or there'l be hell to pay!
Oh dammit, no, wait.... :peace: :hippy:

We'll see ya when you get back here. Take all the time you need... DOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOD !!!!!

I was wondering where Steven went...It's not the same without his glowing about Williams.

The Monster Squad - Bruce Broughton

Not a great piece of work. That one theme for the little girl is wonderful to hear and contrasts the rest of the score. Overall, it's an over the top, pleasant horror score. Decent movie too.

Happened to me last year. Can certainly relate to it. I was just getting too involved in it all, found myself lying in bed at night wondering how I should respond to something Pawel wrote about Hans Zimmer... and realised I was taking it all far too seriously. So I left for a few months, came back and it was all just great fun over again!

See you round here soon, I hope...

Not your fault! It was mine.

if we're not supposed to express our personal feelings or develop attachments or be disappointed when those we have developed attachments to leave for inexplicable reasons, why are we even here?

If all we wanted to do was post comments about scores we could all just post our thoughts as addendums to Clemmensen's reviews or something. There's a reason the logo says "community" rather than "reviews"

Erik I've never been in a fight in my life but if we were all in the same bar I'd be very tempted to deck you back for saying that about Demetris just because he dared to express his completely understandable and human sentiments.

But I wish you wouldn't leave too, maybe you could just spend a little less time here, but you know better than anyone how much time you have and I'm sure its a lot less than I have given your family. I just know I was tempted to leave back when I was having my snobby temper tantrums about sound quality issues and "nobody understood how frustrating it was" but in retrospect I definitely would have regretted it.

Apparently he edited out the insults 'cause I sure don't see any....

Say that to my face and I'll crack ya one!

-Erik-

In your neck of the woods? Kylie probably!?

...if only

All I'm suggesting is that if the emo comment was said to me in a "bar," as Demetris put it, things wouldn't have turned out so pretty. I'm not here to threaten anyone I just don't like being insulted for wanting to take some time off.

-Erik-

Dear Erik, sorry to see my comment was taken completely wrong and harshly by you; it wasn't meant to be taken this way at any point. One thing is that i kinda expected it not to be received like that, since you're someone who similarly directed other mt members in other similar situations not to take things so seriously, or man-up or this is the nature of the board, etc etc. Another thing - where it's only my fault, is that I should have made even clearer (although did mention it twice, but you seem to overpassed that point?) that it was certainly more focused on Steven's departure which disappointed me personally. He's someone that i didn't want to see leaving from mt, he was a very frequent member and a huge enjoyment to deal and debate with, personally speaking always. This also applies to you.


What you also fail to understand is that i reply 'cause i care, about Steven and you, or everyone else here. If i didn't, or was a self-centered prick, i wouldn't give a fuck. At times like this, i really wish i was that bastard in life, it would make things so much easier

Your decision is wholeheartedly respected but you can't really expect me not to express myself; i know i am not the greatest when it comes to passing along some points in a bit in-direct, more gentle or sugar-coated way, but i truly want to believe that you specifically - above everyone else, know that all come from good intentions, and because i care.

In any way, i sincerely apologize for the emotional burst. Please accept this and also understand it was no way a personal insult-centered post. There's also a very different culture involved, as Martijn very rightfully so notes from time to time, and this makes things a bit difficult to pass along via a forum some times. I am sorry to hear your decision and i truly hope it gets reversed really soon. As for the bar air-punching, don't be so sure 'cause believe me it wouldn't be an easy-ride for you dear Mister

Cheers, i'm off

Thanks Martijn. I hope we'll all be in the same bar once, drinking Belgian beers (or wine, whisky, port and other relatives of milk), with Erik leading in the Chimay department. So no fighting, only joking, pooking and laughing. Timmer would be the DJ, throwing the funk at us, together with D's cat singing lulz!


PAN TADEUSZ | wojciecha kilar (chicka? )

The main theme in Swiatynia Dumania is gorgeous. It sounds a bit like an adagio, but then I was realising I don't really know what the definition of an adagio is. So while I think it may be that, I will conclude that it is stunning, throughout the score. It's mixed with more upbeat music and marching music. Odd combination.

Gone With The Wind - Max Steiner

It doesn't get much more Golden Age than this! What a theme - one of the greats.
