Weird how Spielberg sometimes gets these "flavors of the month," and then after doing his films, they pretty much disappear.

Mutant, you're a fracking marvel! This has been a highly enjoyable thread, with fine moments from the master's work.

IT is the old system when the Studio stepped in, Timeline was shown to a test audience, they wrote down everything they hated about it, including Jerrys score.
Donner went back and re-edited the flic, which stuck in the first place. Then Timeline was re-re-edited, and this all destroyed Jerry Goldsmiths score. SORT of like what George Lucas did with his last three Star Wars pictures to John Williams.
When someone like George Lucas edits at the last moment, two weeks out before the film is released, WELL HELL it gives John Williams, or mater of the fact, NO composer anytime to rescore, what any director destroyed.
That is the case in point here, Donner said he hated what had happen to Jerry Goldsmith's Score. I have heard the score several times and like it, THOUGH I have never seen the bad ass flic. I will take the music anyday. Jerry was used to scoring some real clunkers of movies.
Allan Quartermine, Congo, Supersuck(Superhurl) Supergirl, Damnation Alley, The Swarm(every 5 minutes a helicopoter either takes off, or lands)Inchon, Challenge, Baby: The Lost Ideas, Lionheart, Warlock, Basic Instunk, The Ghost and the Darkness(it looked like a fake lionhead being shaked at the camera)Deep Rising,Hollow Man, Star Trek 40: No NEW IDEAS HERE SON!!
Yep Jerry had signed on the dotted line on a many Hollywood Clunkers. While his music didn't clunk for the most part. Jerry took on some real dogs of hollywood.

And, unfortunately, "The Dig" is one of my favorites. It is a late example of Goldsmith's elegant mastery of electronics and acoustic orchestra. Thanks again, Mutant, for all your hard work. It's a welcome "blast from the past."
