  1. Of course a great original score by Tyler would be nice.

    And I can see and understand your point about composers having difficulties with trying to emulate another composer´s style, but I see it completely the other way around, in the case of Rambo, I thought it gave the movie a kind of continuity feeling, before entering the next and different level. Star Trek, on the other hand, was an epic fail in my book beside the end titles.

    Such a strange thing is taste. It just won´t fit to everyone´s expectations...

    We can´t change anything about it, one way or the other, so I try to concentrate on the positive aspects. That doesn´t mean I don´t see the negative, I just decide to concentrate on the positive.

    I can perfectly see why this drives you crazy, but where does that get you? You get angry and bored and don´t like what´s becoming of filmmusic.

    But we´ve been there before. It´s about a choice. We can either accept that things will change or we don´t. But whether we do or not will not change anything, since the masses decide. Not that I like it, but what can we do?

    It´s not that I try to see the positive in Reality TV here, but even if I wouldn´t, that wouldn´t change things either.

    And we've all been to TV shows and films with outerspace and aliens, but we keep going there...

    Gilman did some good scoring for the three-year un TV series "7 Days". A combo of jazzy-like elements, modern scoring, and some synth work. GNP Records released a CD of score. It's always been a personal favorite of mine.

    Things can be affected and change, at certain values, from certain individuals and their actions, at times.

    As for the rest, it's not like i go in it and be ready to be annoyed or anything. I am neutral, but i can help what i am hearing.

    IMO, if you could expect Tyler to improve on any Basil Poledouris score, it would be that one. RED DAWN has not aged well. So much so that I'm amazed people were impressed with the score at the time.

    Agreed!

    I'm curious to see how the plot would work in today's world. China and Russia invading USA? That sounds like the crazy stuff that Fox News watchers would believe (socialism, communism, Obama's czars...)

    A most unnecessary remake. There is no way the new film or score is going to capture the magic of the original or its sequel.

    Are you guys fucking kidding me?!?!?! Wow! How can any one NOT like The Karate Kid? The Karate Kid was a very, very personal film for me. Conti's score is absolutely magnificent. And the sequel is on par and at moments even BETTER than the original!

    Vomit inducing rubbish to me Erik, but I was already 23 yrs old when it was released so I can imagine many younger members of this board having fond memories of it.

    My feelings exactly: I always found Karate Kid to be little more than a kid's Rocky, and Conti's score mediocre, but I noticed it certainly struck a powerful chord with people growing up with it (so your note that it "was a very, very personal film for me" certainly makes sense, Erik).

    Curious... why? IMHO, it's a wonderful, heart warming, unique underdog story. The magic comes from the unusally friendship between Miyagi and Daniel. And Miyagi is easily one of the most unique characters ever created... so good that Pat Morita received a Best Supporting Actor nomination for his work.

    It just goes ( for me ) with a certain type of 1980's teen movies that with very few exceptions ( The Lost Boys, Stand By Me and some others I can't think of right now ) I just couldn't stand.

    I liked that one too. As I said, it was particular 80's films such as ALL The Karate Kid films ( I've seen the first two and that's more than enough thankyou ), Flashdance, Weird Science, The Lady In Red...... vomit

    Here's a question for all of you...

    Which decade would you pick as the best for great films?

    Wouldn't have a clue. But as far as my favourite decade for films goes, I'd say the 80s. Absolutely and unequivocally the 80s.

    But what is it specifically about Karate Kid that you hate so much?

    It's all subjective because nostalgia comes into play and its hard not to be biased. And ones definition of a great film might not be the same for another person.
