Yeah, this is pretty much what I expected. Sorta meh. I knew Anne would be terrible. Hope Alan does better.

I’m cautiously optimistic. Any Zemeckis-Silvestri release is a big deal. Bring it on!

So this is bypassing cinemas?
And CD too?

I don't expect any new 2020 score to come out on CD. If it does it's the exception not the rule

The preview for the film on the HBO Max website has a montage of silent clips set to what might be a snippet from Alan Silvestri's score.

Silvestri has a pretty good track record of getting his scores out there (especially on CD) so I'm hoping someone like Intrada or LLL or Quartet might get a shot at getting this one out to us Luddites.

It's Watertower, and for what i know, they releases (i believe) both digital and CD.

But for this one, 100% is only digital.

If it's anything like An American Pickle, the other theatrical WB movie that got moved to HBO MAX, it'll get a digital release around the same time as the movie drops.

I wonder why we haven't heard a note of this score yet? Will it be released this week?

Oh Hey!

This is the Alan Silvestri sound that has been missing for like the last 20 years or so.

Oh I don't know...Ready Player One seemed to hit it on the head.

So interesting how different people have very different preferences for a composer's various styles! My preferred Silvestri is Van Helsing/Xmas Carol, I'm excited to hear what this is all about!

I don't know, i like of plenty scores by Silvestri, the only one i find always weak is G.I.Joe.

Listen to the samples, sounds pretty, pretty good.

Yes, Ready Player One and Welcome To Marwen were two vintage/textbook Silvestri scores to my ears.
But even his other recent stuff is pure Silvestri to me, from his Avengers films to his Zemeckis films.
He's just great whatever way you split it.

And Roger, looking forward to your next post saying 'CD coming from Intrada hopefully November/December 2020' wink

Actually those two, are among the best Silvestri's stuff in recent years.

Even Endgame, are among my favorite stuff of him.

Some very good brass, woodwind, and string writing in those clips. It sounds very reminiscent of a stately early-to-mid 1990s orchestral fantasy score.
