- Comment [quote][b]Anthony wrote[/b] duh, duh, [i]DUH[/i]! So John Williams isn't the perfect one we all thought he was. [/quote] One thing I especially don't like Williams, is that he sometimes won't put the names of his orchestrators on the CD inserts, or covers, or back covers, or anywhere. I searched ...

- Comment Just had a chance to listen to the 10,000 B.C. promo score, and was totally disappointed. What a mess... Some "Apocalypto" tribal chants, some Zimmer-esque themes, and some drones... I miss the David Arnold-Roland Emmerich days !

- Comment Though Stardust score is sometimes (or most of the time? ) generic, it does have some moments, where the overall arrangements and orchestration make me feel that --- The GREAT Michael Kamen lives in the form of Ilan Eshkeri !
