- Comment I agree with Thor that it's quite hard to change the inner image of a person that you've had for years or even decades. The same happened with a very good friend of ours who transitioned. I found it extremely difficult to think of him the way he wanted to, regardless of how much I wanted to support ...

- Comment Well, people go because they expect a high quality movie based on Cruise' involvement, so that won't change. We won't change a thing about Scientology by boycotting Cruise. They need to be fought on a completely different level - which is also not going to happen. The US have got a few other ...

- Comment [quote][b]BobdH wrote[/b] But I boycot someone on principle of his or her behavior and beliefs if that causes harm to a large group of people, and the quality of their work is not a factor in that. I think it would be a bit hypocritical if I’d still watch someone’s films despite other people ...

- Comment Say what you want about Scientology and Cruise, but his work ethos is brutal, which in turn leads to astounding results. Giving 150% in everything he does, stunts included, he kinda rightfully expects others to give at least their 100%. And by now everyone filming with him should know that ...

- Comment I'm certainly not the only one being anxiously curious about Cameron's choice for Horner's successor. Personally, I think James Newton Howard (I'm thinking about Atlantis and Raya) would be the perfect choice, with Daniel Pemberton (Dark Crystal) a close second. The question is who'd be willing to ...

- Comment HP1-2 are in full Disney mode, but very likable. HP3 is my favourite (book, movie, and score). HP4 is a trainwreck as a book, movie, and score, with Harry in Winter being the only saving grace. From HP5 on, the movies are brilliant. Hooper's scores have some truly memorable highlights. Desplat's ...

- Comment [quote][b]FalkirkBairn wrote[/b] The dislike of superhero movies and TV is really down to the style that is used for the more action-oriented moments [...] It all looks so false and obviously CGI (for the most part).

I love SNOWPIERCER, actually, far more than the Bong Joon-ho film it is based on (which was too quirky for me). I was hoping there would be some off-train action in season 2, and there was ...

We've seen [b]Servant [/b]Season 2 and were very happy that the series gave some answers, though we're far from sure about what's really going on there. Certainly an improvement plotwise, though I ...

It's not to everyone's taste, I guess. But if you like Dunkirk, you should ...

- Comment Thanks, Thor. At first I was a bit taken aback, because I know many of these score inside out, and many of them ARE too fantasy-like for me and don't fit the bill, but there are a few individual tracks on them that might be useful, indeed, so thx for pointing these classics out to me, so I can give ...

Over the course of my 35 years as an RPG gamemaster, I just used to take everything I found cool and put it on. Every new score I loved ...

- Comment That track has been one of my favourites as well, but for personal and recent reasons, I will never ever get through the Goodbye scene score again without welling up, I'm afraid. Within that context, Super 8 will do the same to me. Giacchino really did well on that one.

It was a time where vinyl was my only option, so I listened to full ...
