Thank you for doing one more Top 40 countdown! I look forward to it every year.

What might be less time consuming AND more interesting to read would be your own reviews of the scores in question (rather than mining other reviews for the quotes). I've always found you commentary much more insightful than the remarks of mainstream critics.

That's very kind of you, but I've never had a very high opinion of my own critical abilities (you may notice that in the liner notes I've written, I largely focus on the production history with not much analysis of the score), and the state of scores these days may be too depressing to contemplate in detail; even my favorites are churning out unmemorable work, while, conversely, one my five best scores of the year is likely to be Zimmer's Interstellar.
