    Yes, I'm waiting for the helicopter to land in my backyard. It is however still quiet up there (and also down there). I'll just water the lettuce in the mean time.

  11. May I just add here that since watching the film again after such a long time, I sincerely want the score released of Innerspace, such a fun film in its own right but with the added genius of Goldsmith to make it just a little better.

    22 years seems a good enough duration to finally get a release don't you agree? And is it me or did Dante-Goldsmith collaborations always result in the most memorable lighthearted action / comedy music that Jerry could write, I mean with themes and motifs that stick in your head. For me it's like that with everything they've done.

    So who should we harass for a full release of Innerspace then?

    I've had the boot of Innerspace for quite some time and I'm surprised to say that I prefer the original Geffen Records release. The cues selected for that album are, IMHO, the best of the best.

    now there's an example of a "so called" simple score that has 3 themes, and a 4th that represents the environment of Jack's Interior (as they so lovely explain it in the credits biggrin ), and what do you receive?

    A score that has 3 themes more than our usual mainstream soundtracks of today
    Man, Innerspace may be light Goldsmith fun but it is BIG movie fun if you compare it with today's music

    Bring on the full release Intrada, I know you guys already have it lying there, waiting for a release date
    waaaaaahhhhhhhh!!! Where's my nut? arrrghhhhhhh

    There's nothing annoying at keeping everyone's (at least mine's) hopes up!

    But that's not why. It's a score that doesn't hold up in it's complete form.

    Neither do I! So I'm very pleased, assuming my info is accurate. (I do have the horrible-sounding boot, though - which I've only been able to listen to at most twice, I think.)

    I had the Geffen CD of INNERSPACE once. Didn't like it much (score was too "perfunctory", run-of-the-mill stuff), so I sold it CHEAPLY without knowing what it was worth. Stupid.
    I am extremely serious.

    I own four Goldsmith scores (three Star Treks and The Mummy), and so far I haven't heard much at all I like. Definitely not a favorite composer of mine (at least not yet), probably actually one of my least favorites among those I've heard. slant

    Like most of Goldsmith's scores, I think. That's one composer for whom Varèse's short albums were beneficial, I guess...

    Really? 'Cause I basically detest his score to Insurrection, didn't find much interesting in First Contact, hated The Mummy, and found Star Trek: The Motion Picture to be not all that bad; Ilia's Theme stands out in my mind as being quite beautiful. I admit I have many more scores to hear by him before I may make my final judgement, but much of his work seems to be sort of atonal, in a way; for example, I can't stand the main theme of Insurrection, nor am I able to recall anything from The Mummy. I'm more for lush, sweeping melodies. And so far I have not heard too much from him.

    Clearly you have been listening to these scores with ear plugs! If you're 'more for lush, sweeping melodies', then I guess the love theme from The Mummy doesn't count, huh?

    You either weren't paying attention or you have a bad memory for music, because The Mummy is stocked with memorable pieces of music. dizzy

    William, you've barely even scratched the surface of Goldsmith's music, so don't go making harsh judgments quite yet! Sweeping melodies was one Goldsmith's many fortes.

    Honestly, some opinions just astound me!

    Well I'm sorry... dizzy shame Don't worry, I'm not done listening yet. I will be sure to listen through them again.

    Well, if you don't like Goldsmith's music, you don't like Goldsmith's music. That's absolutely fine.

    But statements like 'didn't find much interesting in First Contact, hated The Mummy, and found Star Trek: The Motion Picture to be not all that bad' and 'I can't stand the main theme of Insurrection, nor am I able to recall anything from The Mummy. I'm more for lush, sweeping melodies' really do boggle the mind! (Especially when you've explained exactly what those scores are, yet seem to think they're not. dizzy)

    Well, I truthfully do not like Insurrection's main theme. That's an honest fact. I haven't heard Star Trek: The Motion Picture in awhile, though I do remember liking some of it. And I need a few more listens to The Mummy.

    Have you seen The Mummy? (The complete score has some gems, many of which weren't included on the official album.)
