* I feel absolutely no connection to the following Goldsmith scores: Legend, Hoosiers, Patton or Star Trek: The Motion Picture. This isn't to say they're bad, just that they've never done it for me.
* With some exceptions, I don't feel much towards the music of Alex North or Elmer Bernstein. Scores like 2001, Marie Ward, Spartacus, Slipstream and The Man With The Golden Arm are exceptions but by-and-large I cannot figure out why I don't like them more.
* I think the greatest threat to filmscore isn't Hans Zimmer, isn't James Horner, isn't BSX or any other number of boogy men - but the fans themselves.
* I like the music on disc but find Bear McCreary's music in BSG to be some of the most cloying, horrible uses of music ever written for television.

I don't get all the Ennio Morricone idolatry. There's a couple of his scores I like but everything else -- eh....
Lawrence of Arabia is the most overrated film score ever written.
70s and 80s synth composer/performers like John Carpenter, Giorgio Moroder and Harold Faltermeyer kick ass. Period. It's a scientifically proven fact. Live with it. 
John Barry quit the movies at the perfect time. His stuff was getting rrrrreaaaaallly repetitive.
Jerry Goldsmith could do no wrong. Again: scientifically proven, incontrovertible FACT. Learn It. Live It. Love It.
Avatar was shit. A monumental waste of resources and talent. Horner's score was the ONLY thing good about it.
I liked From Paris with Love. Sue me.

I hate heavy metal, trash metal.... all kinds of metal, rap, grunge, girly pop as an excuse for film music.
I hate CDs with nothing but a collection of songs and where a mere sample size snippet of the real soundtrack is in there somewhere.
I generally hate re-recordings (exceptions accepted)
I hate the fact that certain things are being treated as "can't touch this" material. Some soundtrack are as overrated as the Beatles, Stones, Dylan, Doors, Kubrik, Peckinpah or Tarantino.

I think EXORCIST II: THE HERETIC is superior to the original film, in every way.
Hayao Miyazaki makes better animated films than Pixar.
I like anchovies on my pizza. Lots and lots of anchovies.
