Re: Movies That Need a New Score
It's half score/half ambient noise often incorporating things seen onscreen. I always thought it was creepy as hell.

Thank goodness he did. T2 is one of the more underrated and overlooked scores imo. The three action cues he created all work extremely well and are never overused.

You explained it better than me; the composition of the music is perfectly fine, it's the fact that it's all played off a synthesizer that makes it sound cheap and cheesy.

GREASE needs a Bollywood score.

I wonder what Man Of Steel would be like if Hans Zimmer hadn't fallen asleep face down on his keyboard while recording the "score" ?

Always interesting how only whites and blacks are protected. Oh, DVDtalk. How you fail culture.

Bad Boys II (yea yea yea). Bad Boys has one of my favorite scores ever. I think maybe the filmmakers didn't know how awesome it was, as they didn't even attempt to keep it around for II.
Mark Mancina was on fire with the 90's action movies (Bad Boys, Con Air, Speed).

So many wrong things said in this thread. The score for Forbidden Planet is inspired and so unique. It fit the movie perfectly. The Terminator score was all kinds of awesome. And True Romance has a score that goes great with the movie.

Glad you brought that up. It truly is atrocious. I think that film could be "rehabbed" into something great. Getting rid of the score and using early punk like Belushi wanted would be a step in the right direction.

I'm going to assume that people who don't like the music in The Third Man and Forbidden Planet simply don't like anything different and would prefer all films to follow some pretty narrow outline and never make a bold or striking decision.
I also assume that Zither haters have no grasp of the history of the instrument and Vienna.
