Well, what's on my side is that there weren't THAT many film trilogies made.
In that case you could argue that STAR WARS isn't a trilogy and shouldn't have been on your list.On Friday I ate a lot of dust and appeared orange near the end of the day ~ Bregt -

The Powell scores are modern action masterpieces. One of the best-scored trilogies in cinematic history. Yes, not far from the original Star Wars, Lord of the Rings and things like that. Just different in its approach.
I wouldn't go that far but yes, they are bloody great scores.
p.s. I wish you guys could see me right now, Gomez is sat on my lap as I type, he never used to be a lap cat but now that he's an old chap ( 15 yrs ) he seems to enjoy human company more and more even though he couldn't give a shit what any of you write here....or me for that matter!

Its two completely separate trilogies :P
I'd say the Bourne scores are as good or better than the Star Wars prequel scores in terms of film effectiveness and consistency of leitmotif development, even if they're not necessarily as entertaining all the time...I love you all. Never change. Well, unless you want to! -

They don't have the lasting-in-time quality. Great scores indeed, especially the 2nd one, but let's not over-react.Love Maintitles. It's full of Wanders. -

15 years! That's pretty good. Born in 1997, then? Interesting year. It was my first year living away from home (actually from summer-96), I was relatively fresh at the university, I logged on to FSM for the first time (this was when their messageboard was created), my film music interest and acquisition rate was nearing an all-time peak. And you got a cat!I am extremely serious. -

Actually a woman living under my room sometimes plays noisy music too loud (I have no idea what kind of music they are, because only what I can hear are the beats )... I hope she heard my John Williams blastsLabels are for cans, not people. - Anthony Rapp -

Hans Zimmer - Inception
The best music from the man for a very long time (especially as heard in film). I should make a deeper analysis one day, I talked to the composer about it a few times and I have some interesting insight from him.http://www.filmmusic.pl - Polish Film Music Review Website -

I do agree with you Pawel, especially with the part about it being excellent as it is heard in the film. I'm really looking forward to your deeper analysis!Whatever you gaze rests on,do not use your vision, but the eyes of your soul...She knows better... -

Today i listened to
MYCHAEL DANNA - Girl, Interrupted.
Remembering to be more enjoyable in the past than now...it sounded a bit disorganized and odd for my tastes now.
MYCHAEL DANNA - hearts in atlantis
Much, much better. One of his best scores to date, imo, along with ARARAT.
JAMES NEWTON HOWARD - Dreamcatcher
Away from the crappy, uninspired electronics and synths of the modern JNH-RC era, everything he wrote sounded so much better than today; even for crappy films like this.
GABRIEL YARED - Cold Mountain
This man's the impersonation of elegance in film music. Such a shame he doesn't write anymore.
KNUT AVENSTROUP HAUGEN - Age of Conan the hyborian adventures.
One of the best game scores of all times, imo. Epic, grand, organic, beautiful at places. Vocal work is also outstanding throughout.
ALEXANDRE DESPLAT - Rust and Bones
Has some enjoyable moments; the opening main theme for instance performed by the brass quintet, the piano passages. In general it's too Santaolall-ish, not something i'd expect to hear from Desplat.
ALEXANDRE DESPLAT - Cloclo
Lush and piano driven, this orchestral little gem is simply beautiful; its 2-3 themes are irresistible.Love Maintitles. It's full of Wanders. -

Yared still scores, in fact he has two or three films coming up, and another just got a CD release (a new film).
The only reason there was a lull and he got replaced on three or four films, I can only speculate to: maybeh e had medical problems, persona, problems, etc. Maybe he just took a vacation.The views and opinions of Ford A. Thaxton are his own and do not necessarily reflect the ones of ANYONE else. -

http://filmmusicreporter.com/2012/07/14 … e-cuisine/
He also has a [recorded] score for the pushed back to 2014 film "Americana", and a new version of "Les Miserables".
Okay, so that's more like five new scores coming.The views and opinions of Ford A. Thaxton are his own and do not necessarily reflect the ones of ANYONE else. -

The Mighty Macs - William Ross
Very pleasant, but it does rather sound like a new recording of the temp track.
