    Who doesn't? Finally we're given a memorable baddy in a decent Bond film.


    I've still yet to see the film.

    Still can't get into the Skyfall score. It's too long and sounds utterly generic to me. Maybe when I see the film.

    I was so disappointed with it that I've shelved it away, who knows, maybe I'll listen to it again soonish and hear it in a whole different light? I haven't given up on it but I've certainly scratched my head on some peoples love for it, I'm not getting it. ( yet!?? )

    It's weird because I do enjoy Newman's work (especially the animation scores).
  1. Actually seeing the movie might help.

    I really enjoyed the score on disc but boy does it ever shine in the movie. I kinda wish the score transitioned into something a little more old school (or to quote Bond himself "back in time") during the last 40 minutes or so but for the most part Newman's score gets a great mix, fits the action like a glove and is a worthy addition into the Bond franchise!

    NP: Tron: Uprising - Joseph Trapanese

    Holy. Shit. punk

    I love the show and it's great to finally have this incredible music to blast through my speakers! Liam is going to love this when he get home from school today!

    Very good, might manage to erase my awful memories of his the raid redemption score.
    Love Maintitles. It's full of Wanders.

    Signs - James Newton Howard

    I greatly admire this score. Some may see the central suspense tracks as noodling but they're incredibly detailed and essential to the film (the rare Shyamalan I like). The main titles is a blast and the finale cues are some of the best music this composer has ever written.

    ^ One of the very best scores ever composed. IMO, Howard's all time best.

    He's a remarkably consistent composer with that director. I can't think of a score that isn't worth hearing and several are among his best (Signs, Lady in the Water, The Village).
  3. Unbreakable is better.

    While I do enjoy that score I rarely return to. Howard's Signs is on a whole other level! Unbreakable the film, however, is Shammy's best!

  4. Yeah, it sucks how that film never got a sequel. It's probably the superhero film I've ever seen.

    1. SIGNS is a masterpiece.
    2. The Hand of Fate PT I is one of the best pieces of music I've ever heard.
    3. Unbreakable is a brilliant score and I see that here the score is appreciated but I still think it's underrated.

    4. Unbreakable the movie is also brilliant, Shyamalan' best movie.

    Can't say there's a single thing wrong with that post. It's full of WIN.

    Why is Signs one of the very best scores ever composed? That's not a loaded question, I actually don't know.

    I agree. It's a great self contained movie.

    Because Erik said so.


    Seriously though I'm with you Steven. I think it's a very good score amongst hundreds of many good scores.

    You make a very convincing case Erik. I'll have to watch the movie again ( not exactly a trial by any means, I think it's one of MNS better films ) and see how it works for myself.

    The score itself is one of my favourite JNH scores.
