    Sometimes I'm embarrassed to be apart of that group. wink

  2. LOL. Things are looking up though. I hear it's lost one of its reliable Desplat voters recently. wink

    Here's a tracklisting for the people who loved the slower, romantic and melodic parts of NEW MOON but are bored of the action cues:


    Dreamcatcher
    Romeo and Juliet
    Edward leaves
    I need you
    Break up
    Memories of Edward
    Almost a kiss
    You're alive
    Mary me, Bella
    Full moon


    Do yourself a favor and listen to just the above pieces. The score's really beautiful.

    I made a playlist of half those tracks, and it works exceedingly well. smile

    Which cues you kept exactly?
    Love Maintitles. It's full of Wanders.
  5. You've got to have 'To Volterra'. That's too good to leave out. I'd leave out some of the cuter stuff instead.

    'To Volterra' is out in favour of some of the cuter stuff.

    I haven't seen much discussion about Fantastic Mr. Fox. Did no one like it/listen to it?
    I checked iTunes earlier today and while the samples were really good, I got put off by the 20-minute running time of the score.
  9. I enjoyed it, but that's me.

    Yes I love his palette of instruments he used in " Bean's Secret Cider Cellar" and "Just Another Dead Rat in a Garbage pail". A lot of fun! This is the same composer that did New Moon, Julie/Julia and Un Prophète in the same year? All very different from each other stylistically speaking.

    I only downloaded 2-3 tracks from Fantastic Mr Fox. Unusual-sounding and nice to hear when they pop up in a playlist.

    It's an enjoyable, cute little uplifting score.

    No, i am genuinely interested in a possible third installment, if Desplat's scoring it.

    Eclipse is in production but as far as know there it no word yet concerning the composer. I truly hope it's Desplat again.

    Judging from this year's surprise, A SINGLE MAN, i am sure he'll do simply great.

    The director is different to NEW MOON, and if his history is anything to go by, the lush romantic approach won't be so interesting to him. I imagine he'll veer back towards Carter Burwell, or possibly even go back to the guy who did his last film, 30 DAYS OF NIGHT. (And no, that isn't the sort of score we like much. wink )

    I thought Brian Reitzell's score for 30 DAYS OF NIGHT was pretty good, especially when he settled in a John Carpenter vibe. But the suspense music otherwise was rather unremarkable. I believe he's Sophia Coppola's regular composer.
    I am extremely serious.
  24. Yeah, I was talking more about Demetris and my tastes in music. Neither of us would ever pick up the score out of interest in the film, but someone like Desplat made it interesting to at least hear the album.

    I can just picture the look on the faces of all the Twilight fanatics who went crazy because Desplat's score wasn't like Burwell's, if Reitzell gets the gig!

    That Brian Reitzell guy? Warum? What i heard was vomit-inducing material.

    Fans of TWILIGHT the movie actually gave a crap about anything else other than the emo vampire's crotch?

  28. Sounds like there'll be a bit of energy in Desplat's THE GHOST WRITER score (for Polanski) if the music used for the trailer (definitely Desplat) is any indication:

    Desplat thriller scores usually do! I'm not really a fan of his franz-type scores wink (except Benjamin Button because it's a nice relaxing album), but his action writing is fantastic!
