Some new assignments that I am interested since the list I made above on December 3: Bruno Coulais: The Shadow King, Song of the Sea (two animated films) Patrick Doyle: B.O.O.: Bureau of Otherworldly Operations, Enchanted Kingdom 3D Patrick Neil Doyle (his son): The Legend of Longwood (I want to hear what he has to offer) George Fenton: Bears Christian Henson: Trap for Cinderella (sounds like a project that could yield an interesting score) Jan A.P. Kaczmarek: Magnitude 9 Dario Marianelli: The Boxtrolls Marc Shaiman: And So It Goes Fernando Velázquez: Out of the Dark Gabriel Yared: Belle du Seigneur, A Promise, In Secret, Tom at the Farm Christopher Young: The Monkey King (Based on some quotes about the score) Unfortunately Edelman was replaced on "A Friggin' Christmas Miracle" (by Jon Sadoff). The movie also slightly altered it's name. We may have a friggin' Christmas bomb coming.

Yeah, unfortunately "Tarzan" has arrvied and no matter what cue I listen to, I have to end up stopping it. I'm finding myself putting him in the same question box as Horner: What happened to the 1980's Horner/Newman?

Thor: It happens extremely rarely, but for once I agree with Justin. Incidentally playing this score now too.

Bruno Coulais: Amazonia, The Shadow King, Song of the Sea The first was 2013. The second appears to have now an undefined release date. I can't find any samples for Song of the Sea. Patrick Doyle: Cinderella, Jack Ryan, B.O.O.: Bureau of Otherworldly Operations, Enchanted Kingdom 3D The first hasn't opened yet. I did not care for the Jack Ryan score. B.O.O. hasn't opened yet -- still looking forward that one. The last one had release CD release that I am aware of. Patrick Neil Doyle (his son): The Legend of Longwood (I want to hear what he has to offer) Man, this film must be in trouble. It's only opened in Estonia. And, according to IMDb, only opens one more place, next year, the Netherlands. Randy Edelman: A Friggin Christmas Miracle Rejected score. It was too much of a friggin' miracle to get a new Edelman score. George Fenton: Bears, The Spirit of ’45, The Zero Theorem, Jimmy’s Hall Based upon a sutie I heard of Bears, it's certainloy worth looking into further. The next two are from 2013. The last never opened in the U.S. (there's also no date coming according to IMDb) and there was no CD release. Gilbert Gabriel: Chambers Gate No CD release. William Goldstein: OKI -- In the Middle of the Ocean There's no CD release and no samples (of ANY score) at his website. Dave Grusin: Skating to New York, Keep On Keepin’ On (with pianist Justin Kauflin) There was no CD release. Also, there is no sample at his Kraft-Engel page. Same as above. Christian Henson: Trap for Cinderella (sounds like a project that could yield an interesting score) This was from 2013. I can't find any samples for it. Ron Jones: Fight for Space (documentary) This appears to still be filming. Trevor Jones: To Tokyo I'm not sure what's happening with this film, but it's holding up a new Jones score, damnit! Jan A.P. Kaczmarek: Magnitude 9 Still in production. Rolfe Kent: 108 Demons This one now opens next year and has slightly been re-named: The Prince and the 108 Demons. Mark Knopfler: Dough (Director: John Goldschmidt) He's been replaced (I don't know if he did anything or not). He's been [Lorne] Balfed. Michel Legrand: Butterfly Love Opens next year. Joel McNeely: A Million Ways to Die in the West I've not heard enough of it to form an opinion. Paul Leonard-Morgan: Walking with Dinosaurs 3D (IF he approaches it like his documentary series scoring) Apparently he did not and some reviews I saw from people who heard it, put me off hearing it. Ennio Morricone: The Best Offer, The Canterville Ghost, The Correspondence The first is 2013 and the other two open next year. David Newman: Tarzan 3D, Behaving Badly I didn't like the Tarzan score. The second is yet another unreleased Newman comedy score. James Peterson: For Billy There was no CD release and Peterson has no samples on his site. Rachel Portman: Belle, The Right Kind of Wrong, Still Life I listened to half of Belle in a vein effort to find something, but my goodness this was boring. The other two are from 2013. Mike Post: Behind the Gate (documentary) Yet another in a long series of unreleased Post scores. The only want to hear it is to see the film (from 2013). Mark Snow: Aimer, boire et chanter (again for Resnais) There was no CD release that I know of. Fernando Velázquez: The Adventurer: The Curse of the Midas Box, Crimson Peak, Out of the Dark The first was 2013 and the other hasn't happened yet. Out of the Dark I couldn't find any samples for. I don't think it had a CD release. Lucas Vidal: Tracers The film hasn't opened yet. Dario Marianelli: The Boxtrolls I haven't heard a lick of it. John Paesano: When the Game Stands Tall No samples, no CD release. I tried to visit his site but I was told there is a problem with the site's certificate, so I'm going to stir away from it just incase of infection. William Ross: In My Dreams I've not heard it yet. I plan to rectify that later. Eric Serra: Lucy I've not heard it yet. I plan to rectify that later. Marc Shaiman: And So It Goes This one had no CD released. Based on the one cue at Kraft-Engel, it sounds like a very nice little piano score: http://www.kraft-engel.com/clients/marc-shaiman/ Gabriel Yared: Belle du Seigneur, A Promise, In Secret, Tom at the Farm, The Prophet The first was 2012, the second and third were 2013, I've not heard Tom at the Farm, and the last one I am very much looking forward to after some early reviews (it's still only opened in two countries). Christopher Young: The Monkey King (Based on some quotes about the score) To me, this was of the most overyhyped scores of 2014. There's nothing here I need to revisit. Well, 2014 was a mixed year. I remember the 1980's and score after knock-out score.

Just wondering, why don't you just wait until you actually have an opinion on more than 3% of the titles you've talked about before posting this Year In Review?

Becasue 2014 is coming to a close. Also, how do you suggest I hear scores with no release and films that haven't come out yet?
|
|
|
|
|
It's just that only 5 of the films you mentioned are scores you heard at all, and of that 5, I'm counting ones where you heard only clips. I don't know, it just seemed like maybe you should have waited until you had an opinion about the scores you could have heard before posting such a lengthy year in review.
