I know, really. THREE ghost writers? Must have had a helluva tight deadline.
Regardless, I'm intrigued by the Beltrami-composed samples that have emerged. Much better-orchestrated than most of his stuff today, which usually feels phoned in to me.
This might well be a case where, like Del Toro has made clear in interviews where he's said as such, the director had to PUSH to get great music out of Marco, who isn't natively so much a great composer as he is a serviceable craftsman.
I'm still waiting for another MIMIC, DON'T BE AFRAID OF THE DARK, HELLBOY or DAVID AND LISA. Those are his towering achievements by far in my book.

I wonder if Alex Proyas would say the same thing. I, ROBOT was marvelous considering a) the 'serviceable craftsman' thing and b) he had about two weeks to write it.
And it well and truly blows about the studio holding this score up. One of the best of the year, so far.
I'm often surprised by the lack of sense of humour by some people on these (or any) boards.
It seemed like a funny "in-joke" in reference to anyone whose sense of entitlement isn't satisfied.
Read it, chuckle (or ignore), then move to the next post.
Same thing happened to me on another thread a while back, someone ended up blowing things out of all proportion for the direction that others took the discussion, and I got lumped in with the blame as well for something that started innocently and light-hearted.
I think some people need to think and understand someone else's thought processes behind what they write, rather than just take the written word literally.
A bit of thought-perception wouldn't go amiss... Not everyone is serious and boring.

They take that to first degree,and Lokutus make such a fixation and repeat it over and over about 7th son than at one moment you just want spoof about it,that's all.
There was no sense of entitlement, and there was no need to "spoof" it with the tasteless reference to a suicide. Which, by the way, is not funny in any shape or form.
If Tony was annoyed by Lokutus´ enthusiasm - why did he have to respond in that way or at all?
This is a thread for Beltrami´s yet unreleased score to THE SEVENTH SON. People should be allowed and even encouraged to ask about the release and to celebrate their enjoyment with it.
Anybody else - why stay here and not just go away?
Yeah, there is also big difference between lightening a depressing or a way too serious thread and trolling everywhere around... but nevermind... let's get back to the topic.
