    Still one of my favorite Tyler cues. I miss the times when he actually went for some proper dissonance. Even if it was never really all that sophisticated or innovative (lots of obvious influences to be heard here, Goldenthal especially methinks) he was able to combine that with his pedal to the medal action style pretty effectively.

    :39 We start hearing speech - till :56 - how are it and the music related to each other (or not)? It is not sung or chanted - how rhythmical is it? Is there any official publication of the text (with translation)?

    Truth be told, this isn't necessarily music I'm drawn to, but I have nothing but respect for anyone who can hold the tension and action up for that long without being either too repetitive or disjointed. 5:42-5:57 cool to see a nod to Silvestri's Predator score

    Thanks for making this. It's interesting how simplistic the score is compared to other composers. Just layers of cliches really!!

    Good but like the other tracks I think the replacement tracks they actually used in the film were better.

    While the film itself took things a little too far (the nursery scene was over-the-top for me, and I've seen Event Horizon) the score hearkens back to Predator and Aliens and I absolutely love the music. Thank you for analyzing this one! What are your thoughts on how Tyler reincorporated the thematic style of Bishop's Countdown (especially in the last 25-30 seconds) for this climactic composition?

    compare this master class in orchestral composition to the flat, themeless garbage that is in the disney shows. The unexpected change to a minor key at 2:21 is brilliant.

    I love composers like John Williams, James Horner, Howard Shore and so many others, but what I love about Zimmer is his simplicity. The way he arranges his pieces show that you can emotion out of a piece even if it’s not incredibly musically complex. He knows how to write for the film rather than overwhelm the audience with crazy and complex passages.

    Great, the original OST in spite of many reconstructions scores made since, the original is the most thirilling! The best attempt is for me is the re-recording Charles Gerhardt did with the National Philharmonic Orchestra in the 70's!

    My favourite Jerry Goldsmith piece from that era, many of his mannerisms would continue to evolve in the 70s especially, Leonard Rosenman may claim to be the master of dodecacophony but I'd say Jerry gave him a run for his money.

    The combination of the violin pedal point, bass melody and chromatic chords played by the piano at 1:29 is serene and heart-wrenching. Reminds me of The Incredibles soundtrack; especially "Life's Incredible Again".
