Thanks for the story. Never heard that indeed.
Michael is like a very cool guy. Seattle as well!
But what's with Williams and ghost writing? Heh?
I forget names but there is a theme in E.T. that wasn't written by Williams. It's the "Chase" theme. Jon Broxton and James Southall know the name. And there were a few people writing additional cues or arranging stuff for Williams on Jedi. Fred Steiner and John Morgan are the names I remember.

duh, duh, DUH!
So John Williams isn't the perfect one we all thought he was. Cool story. Funny facts about composers are always fun. Did you know David Arnold used to work in a cereal factory? -

There's actually some scoring session coverage of Finest Hour here, plus an interview:

I have a feeling Demetris will like that cue...
Erik, what's the chance of you doing a re-run show of the score? -

One thing I especially don't like Williams, is that he sometimes won't put the names of his orchestrators on the CD inserts, or covers, or back covers, or anywhere. I searched through my Revenge of the Sith CD package, but didn't find the name Conrad Pope, while imdb indicates he has worked on the project as orchestrator. -

Not sure. I'll have to talk it over with Michael.
And yeah... "Snipers" is a bloody AWESOME cue!

On that top 10 of 2007 things that's up on SoundtrackNet, Mike mentions the Airborne theme was a minor theme in a previous game? Where? -

Who'd WANT to take credit for THOSE orchestrations!
I think Conrad Pope explained this in much the same way Arthur Morton explained working with Jerry Goldsmith. Their role is essentially in converting the shorthand of those composers in full orchestrations, but involves almost no creative capacity. The fact that they've worked together many times means they understand what a Williams tutti involves compared to a Goldsmith tutti.A butterfly thinks therefore I am -

Aww, sucks Michael didn't win the Oscar. He looked a little upset, but oh well, a nomination clearly shows he's been noticed. -
- CommentTimeFeb 25th 2008
His reaction was... "Yup... expected that!" I told him a few weeks ago his only real competition was Atonement so I don't think it surprised him that he didn't win. Anyway, he is still young and I'm sure there will be a few Oscar wins for him in the future.

Yeah. I thought Atonement would win, but I still had hope. Ah well, he got a Grammy at least. -

Agree. He has pleeeeeeenty of time to win more than one and two oscars. This time I think Atonement was far superior.Anything with an orchestra or with a choir....at some point will reach you -

Has anyone else spotted the motif for the freighter people - 5 decending notes usually played on the strings. I've just noticed this near the beginning of Tabula Rasa, although here it doesn't fit into any context. Any further explanation? -

Is Mr. Giacchino scoring Land of the Lost (2009) directed by Brad Siberling? He's listed on IMDB but as we all know that's not the most reliable of sources until it's confirmed by a studio or an agency.
This would be very exciting if true. -

I bet the only reason he's hired is because of the name. Nothing to do with him being good or anything.
I heard rumors that Airborne was going to be his last MOH score. Please tell me that's not true! -

Just to let you guys know, there are OSCAR PROMOS and CAST AND CREW editions of Ratatouille on eBay. The Oscar promo is the same as the OST, but the cast and crew editions are EXPANDED (possibly complete? no tracklisting is up...).
They're falling out of my price range, but just thought someone with more money might want them. -

I thought they weren't allowed to produce Oscar promos anymore.

Meh, I'm more interested in the cast and crew thing if it's expanded. Would I really be willing to pay $50 for it though? I don't think so. I'm saving for a new computer. -

Me too, but there still seem to be some floating around. I wonder if in truth they are just CDR bootlegs with "For your consideration" slapped on them. -
