The Abyss Soundtrack
I love this soundtrack, i just wish cameron used more this composer, including for avatar, would have been a nice score. Anyway, my main point is this score does not include all the music we can hear during the film and there is quite enough space to put some more...

Star Trek Soundtrack
I love this star Trek soundtrack. It fitted so well the movie than i thought it was the original one, or at least a close adaptation when i have seen the movie. The 'Hella Bar Talk ' is for me the sound that makes you realise that it is a Michael Giacchino soundtrack. It reminds me the lost first season soundtrack without feeling like i am listening a copy past. Michael Giacchino kept his style but perfectly integrated it to the spirit of the movie.

John Leyton said Art appreciation is solitary. I mostly agree that we have all different taste so the "this music sucks" or "this is great" do not mean much to me But here, there are some facts - Horner had plenty of time to do it - This soundtrack has several similarities with previous ones I am not able yet to feel when a soundtrack is well produced or not, from a recording point of view, and if you guys can give me tips on how to know that, that would be great. Is Avatar soundtrack well produced for you? Or is it just about the melody used?

Star Trek III The Search for Spock Soundtrack
I still say Star Trek II is better than I. You are supposed to continue themes in sequels. I don't hear anyone getting on Williams for Star Wars.

Star Trek III The Search for Spock Soundtrack
One of the best sequences in the entire film is the return home at the beginning. When Kirk says "You have control" and they are just along for the ride, the music is brilliant. Especially love when the strings speed up for the Excelsior sequence. They are in awe of the new technology and the fast strings make it seem more modern. Then we cut back to the slow sweeping, epic legacy Enterprise docking, and the perfect touch is everyone in space dock stops what they are doing to watch to embattled ship return home.

Avatar Soundtrack
I agree with your comment about art appreciation being solitary. I feel the same way about the Drag Me To Hell soundtrack!

Avatar Soundtrack
geezz... everyone is a critic. Well, I'm one of the people who thought the score really fit the film and definitely elevated my emotion while watching. I'm a musician, not a musical theorist, and if the music moves you, it does, if it doesn't, then it doesn't. But I love when i read critiques like this, as it reinforces why art appreciation is really solitary.

Drag Me To Hell Soundtrack
I agree. And very easy to take Hurt Locker out since that score really ain't that great, and replace it with Drag Me to Hell. Bogus.

Drag Me To Hell Soundtrack
As I expected Oscar snubbed Christopher Young for his brilliant masterpiece Drag Me to Hell. The academy really truly BLOWS...

Avatar Soundtrack
Hi I´m from Argentina, I watched the film yesterday and I was amazed with that "Titanic" similar notes. I told my boyfriend and my sister like a lunatic. It´s like Titanic. I haven´t heard the soundtrack after watching the film and I won´t but I felt really uncomfortable with the "similarity".. cause it was like "Where´s the big boat entering the rain forest?!?!? !?!" I also agree that there´s no continuity, at least in that theme... AAAAA, the film was awful and full-of-Hollywood- clichés enough, the music just made it a little worse!!!

Star Trek The Motion Picture Soundtrack
This the quintessential Star Trek score. Keep your reviews coming.

Revenge Soundtrack
Unfortunately this music from the soundtrack is not available commercially. You can probably record the sound while watching the movie on your computer.

Revenge Soundtrack
Hi, how can I have access to the final song? the one you talk about in your review end titles . It's my favorite movie! thanks.

Star Trek Soundtrack
Oh, yeah, Casino Royale is a great score! Probably Arnold's best Bond score in my book...

Star Trek Soundtrack
Spot on review, the opening to Star Trek was tremendously sad. Just to note though, I LOVE the Casino Royale soundtrack! Dinner Jackets is an awesome homage to classic Bond by Barry with wailing trumpets and even bongo drums!

Avatar Soundtrack
The main theme is the one actually used in the Leona Lewis song. It plays wherever Neytiri appears in the film, and I think it is absolutely beautiful. I find myself humming it all the time. The rest of the score IS highly derivative of Horner's previous work, and is almost worthless.

Avatar Soundtrack
Dude! Spot-on review and well-articulated! It sounds like you were in pain watching this film! While I think your review to be excellent, I didn’t let the soundtrack bother me. It didn’t add anything to my experience, but it didn’t detract either.

Avatar Soundtrack
Jake G - You make valid points. I've listened to the soundtrack about 8 times all the way through. Other reviewers point out all the same similarities that I have except they forgive him for it. I just can't do that because he had 12-18 months to work on this with no other projects per his contract .

Avatar Soundtrack
I don't normally call people out for opinions but man, are you deaf? How can you say there is no theme? There are three clearly audible themes - including a primary theme that is everywhere on the soundtrack except where you claim it is. It is a very long theme, encompassing several bars with multiple key changes. I don't understand how you could possibly miss it. It is introduced heroically and memorably in track 2 at the 4:00 mark, although this is only the first half of the theme. This first half, including key changes, is woven into every single track from 2 through the end, and is the same as the melody of the pop song! How could you possibly miss it? The theme is played again in full several times on track 5 lasting about 40 seconds per statement . In fact, track 5 is seven minutes of NOTHING BUT THE THEME with variations on boy's voice, then orchestra, then on strings with harp overlaid, then on flute reed, with only a brief break from 3:15-4:00 for a different sub-theme. Portions of the score are derivative of Horner's past work, but the theme which I think is quite beautiful is not "three notes taken from Titanic". Your review is hilariously off the mark. Maybe you've played the CD once, but you clearly haven't heard the music.

Avatar Soundtrack
Yeah, pretty crazy. Cameron is king of the world! I still wish the score were better. He needs to write another Rambo movie in 3D! His best film is Piranha Part Two: The Spawning. LMAO! Kidding...Aliens with the original Terminator in close second.

Avatar Soundtrack
Yo - Avatar just cracked $1 billion worldwide. At this rate, it is probably going be beat Titanic!
