- Comment Y'all are reacting to Thor like I did when someone here called [b]Desolation of Smaug[/b] "themeless". :biggrin:

- Comment [quote][b]Thor wrote[/b] The huge melodies and expansive thematic universe have been totally absent, as far as I can see -- also in fantasy-oriented material like HARRY POTTER, RISE OF THE GUARDIANS and THE GOLDEN COMPASS, which usually call for it and which would give us an idea on how he would ...

This avant-garde violence [url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5vrXKlO2Jbw]shocked me to my very core[/url]. But the reaction is no different, I guess, to listening to ...

I don't remember being particularly surprised when listening to it the first few times, except for finding the recording to be more impactful than most of ...

- Comment Edmund, what is it about "Dragon Flight" and "Sky Battle" that is insufficient to you in capturing "heart and thematic grandeur"? The former is possibly my favorite quote of Hedwig's Theme in the entire series and the latter is as riveting an action cue as anything ...

- Comment I thought it was only one film per year? Or are you just exaggerating? Personally I don't think I could ever be Star Warsed out. I mean I slogged through nearly the entire post-RotJ expanded universe and somehow still care about what happens next despite all of those stories being reduced to ...

- Comment I on the other hand expect it to potentially be one of the most exciting cinematic experience of my life. Because Whedon. And this is the first time he's been given (mostly) free reign on a big budget project; Avengers he was required to stick to the story outline and script concepts that were ...

If he stays on the project and really does end up scoring it, I'll be very surprised if it doesn't become my favourite Desplat score. Not even the might of Godzilla can compete with Star Wars + Desplat (well, I hope).[/quote] Imagine the ...

- Comment I don't mind, I love getting 14, 8, and multiple 6 minute long powerhouse tracks. They're interesting enough not to be dragging. The style is of course not for everyone but I'm glad to get so much out of this unique entry in Morris' career.
