- discussion topic Which composers never "clicked" with you?
- Comment I simply do not understand how one cannot love The Ghost and Mrs Muir by Herrmann. Glass though, I can see where his unique approaches may irritate some.

- discussion topic JERRY GOLDSMITH
- Comment Alien would certainly be in my top 10 Goldsmith scores. My number one would still have to be The Omen just because of how much the choir used to freak me out as a child. That film would be nothing without that haunting score. The Final Conflict wasn't too bad either with it's new themes. Papillon ...

- discussion topic Video game score recommendations
- Comment Just about any of the Final Fantasy scores by Nobuo Uematsu are great. If you don't like the official soundtracks, there's always the piano collections or orchestrated cd's available. Of course I'm more a classc video game score type of person so I look for original and techno versions of Mega ...

- Comment Just another phase in the history of film scores. If I were a cartoonist, I'd sketch an image of John Williams reading that article with a caption saying "that's too bad for [i]them[/i]." :spin:

Any recommendations or maybe I should say, something that is more accessible? I do have Cleopatra.[/quote] Spartacus and Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf? ...

- discussion topic JOHN BARRY
- Comment The Lion In Winter has to be my favorite John Barry score of all time. I loved it so much that I almost felt I should have paid more than $8 bucks for it. It's a pretty good movie too. Favorite Bond scores have to be Goldfinger, followed by On Her Majesty's Secret Service and then You Only Live ...

- discussion topic Which composers never "clicked" with you?
- Comment Meaning, which composers have you tried to like, but never could quite jump on their bandwagon? I'd say the biggest name for me would be Dimitri Tiomkin. Perhaps it's because the majority of scores I've heard of his are westerns and I'm not a huge fan of the genre. I just do not know. I liked his ...

- discussion topic FRANZ WAXMAN
- Comment He won back to back academy awards for his scores to Sunset BLVD and A Place In The Sun. Both well deserving an two of the greatest scores of all time. Innovative for the 1930'a with his use of the theremin in The Bride of Frankenstein, he also knew drama with his scores to Rebecca and Peyton ...

- Comment I used to underestimate Alfred back in the day. Never thought he was worth the amount of oscars he had been given. These days, I realize how wrong I was. Aside from the classic How The West Was Won, the scores to Wuthering Heights, The Greatest Story Ever Told, The Robe, The Song of Bernadette, ...

- Comment So glad he made the switch from classical to film composer. I don't know what I would have done without The Adventures of Robin Hood. Not to mention Kings Row, The Sea Hawk, Captain Blood, Anthony Adverse, The Constant Nymph, Juarez etc etc

- discussion topic MAX STEINER
- Comment King Kong, The Treasure of the Sierra Madre, A Summer Place, Johnny Belinda, Now, Voyager, Casablanca, The Searchers, Adventures of Don Juan, and Gone With The Wind are just some of the scores that may (in some minds) put him as the number one film composer of all time.

- Comment To Kill A Mockingbird is one of my top 10 favorite scores of all time. It should have beaten Lawrence of Arabia for the Oscar IMHO.

- Comment I respect Planet of the Apes, but damn I just cannot listen to it. I simply am never in that proper mood that apparently one needs to be to enjoy it. Same with Anatomy of a Murder for some reason.

- discussion topic Year: 2007
- Comment Feels like the last two years have been rather poor on the score side of things. But this isn't unusual, there have been years where very few scores were worthy of being mentioned. I won't name years because there's always the exception in someones mind, but these bald patches happen about once a ...

- Comment The man, the myth, the legend! Or I just figured that since everyone else had threads on composers, I'd go ahead and start this one up. The Ghost and Mrs Muir may just be my favorite Herrmann score. Though I do enjoy Psycho, Vertigo, Citizen Kane, North By Northwest, Taxi Driver, The Day the Earth ...
