Author	Topic: Score of 2007

	It's getting to the end of the year and the time for Best Of lists, so I'm trying to figure out what actually came out this year. I'm trying to put together a list of what scores came out this year. Mostly I've left scores that didn't get an album release off (with some exceptions like Spider-Man 3). But I'm sure I've missed a few, and there are certainly composers I've overlooked and I'm not terribly familiar with video game scores, either, so I'm sure I missed a lot of noteworthy ones. Anyway, here's my list so far: David Arnold Hot Fuzz Klaus Badelt Premonition TMNT Tyler Bates 300 Halloween Marco Beltrami The Invisible Live Free or Die Hard 3:10 to Yuma Jane Antonia Cornish Island of Lost Souls Jeff Danna Fracture (with Mychael) Mychael Danna Breach Fracture (with Jeff) John Debney Evan Almighty Lair Alexandre Desplat L'Ennemi Intime Lust, Caution Mr. Magorium's Wonder Emporium (with Aaron Zigman) The Golden Compass Patrick Doyle Pars vite et reviens tard The Last Legion Sleuth Danny Elfman Meet the Robinsons The Kingdom Michael Giacchino Ratatouille Medal of Honor: Airborne Ilan Eshkeri Stardust John Frizzell The Reaping Harry Gregson-Williams The Number 23 Shrek the Third Gone Baby Gone Rupert Gregson-Williams Bee Movie Nicholas Hooper Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix James Newton Howard The Lookout Michael Clayton The Water Horse: Legend of the Deep Charlie Wilson's War Mark Isham Gracie Next In the Valley of Elah Reservation Road Lions for Lambs The Mist Steve Jablonsky D-War Command & Conquer 3: Tiberium Wars (with Trevor Morris) Transformers George Kallis Highlander: The Source Robert Kral Superman: Doomsday Dario Marianelli Goodbye Bafana Atonement The Brave One Mark McKenzie The Last Sin Eater Joel McNeely I Know Who Killed Me Ennio Morricone L'Ultimo dei Corleonesi John Ottman Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silve Surfer The Invasion John Powell The Bourne Ultimatum David Shire Zodiac Howard Shore The Last Mimzy Eastern Promises Alan Silvestri Beowulf Jeremy Soule Supreme Commander Guild Wars: Eye of the North Brian Tyler Partition War Aliens vs. Predator: Requiem Debbie Wiseman Flood Gabriel Yared 1408 Christopher Young Ghost Rider Spider-Man 3 Aaron Zigman Bridge to Terabithia The Jane Austen Book Club Martian Child Mr. Magoriam's Wonder Emporium Hans Zimmer Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End The Simpsons Movie -----signature----- "This will be our reply to violence: To make music more intensely, More beautifully, More devotedly than ever before." - Leonard Bernstein

	Wow... I forgot just how lackluster this year was until I read that list. My favorite so far has been Ratatouille, but I've heard some of Beowulf and have very high hopes. Also, I'm expecting The Water Horse to be pretty good as well. -----signature----- "Okey dokey, Doctor Jones, hold on to your potatoes!"

	At World's End has to be my favourite; I've been playing and replaying it ever since it came out. Superb action music that also manages to inject a bit of uniqueness into the score -- which is saying a lot, considering it's Hans Zimmer. I also liked the Hot Fuzz Suite by David Arnold, though sadly there's just not enough of it. Love the beautiful, Bond-esque theme for Nicholas Angel, and obviously the big action sequence at the end. I'd also like the Stardust score, as the film had some epic, sweeping fantasy moments. And finally, not a film score, but one that has all the hallmarks of a big, epic score, is Murray Gold's Doctor Who series 3. Big action (All the Strange, Strange Creatures; The Futurekind), epic (Boe; The Doctor Forever) and plain beautiful, gorgeous cues (Martha's Theme; This is Gallifrey). -----signature----- "A true Knight, Qui-Gon is.

	Mine is pretty much a tie between At World's End and There Will Be Blood. Depends on my mood which I prefer at the time. -----signature----- "I reject your reality and substitute my own." - Adam Savage -------- http://www.onthebusmall.com
