Jay 39,596 Posted April 20, 2011 Share Posted April 20, 2011 We already have the Upcoming Films Thread to discuss the films themselves, and the Upcoming Soundtracks thread to discuss CD announcements of scores, but we don't really have a place to discuss scoring assignments, so here we go! Two recent ones I read about: Patrick Doyle will be scoring Pixar's Brave (source) and Paul Haslinger will be scoring the new Three Musketeers remake (source) My questions is... Who the heck is Paul Haslinger?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charlie Brigden 7 Posted April 20, 2011 Share Posted April 20, 2011 My questions is... Who the heck is Paul Haslinger??He was a member of Tangerine Dream and did a couple of scores with them, and has aso worked with Graeme Revell. He was also the guy who rescored the Wolfman before Elfman's music was put back in the picture. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Koray Savas 2,254 Posted April 21, 2011 Share Posted April 21, 2011 I thought Paul Haslinger was better known. I like his score for Shoot 'Em Up. He's on the low end, most comparable to Tyler Bates and Brian Tyler, but occasionally he'll do something decent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Charlie Brigden 7 Posted April 26, 2011 Share Posted April 26, 2011 Technology has been more of a benefit to the filmmakers than composer. It's resulted in shorter time to compose the music, more music tossed in the 11th hour in favor of worse music as replacement, and the opportunity for technically inept people to exist alongside guys who have monstrous musicality. Very true. And even if you have a good composer working on a film nowadays, the edit always changes and the music has a tendency to get chopped up in the final cut. Or else a classically-trained composer like Patrick Doyle is forced to adapt a certain sound for Thor (the movie not the user), and his voice is squashed completely.But I don't think all film music is in decline. Some independent films and European films know what they're doing. MovieScore Media focuses on releasing such scores Hollywood tends to forget.Yes Mikael's MSM label is superb and many of today's best film music comes from Spain, Portugal, Italy and Germany.Australia too, Christopher Gordon in particular is very renowned in that neck of the woods and gaining more and more acclaim. Hopefully Hollywood will give him more opportunities sooner, rather than later.Not all of Hollywood film music is uninspired and I'll have to correct you and Koray re "Thor". Patrick Doyle's voice has NOT been squashed for the score, it's very much prominent in many of the cues. Just because he decided to evolve and embrace a more percussive sound, it doesn't mean that the score isn't any good. i've been fortunate enough to hear the complete score and it is a seriously thrilling work. The contemporary and almost rock inspired / rhythmic sensibilities are worth noting, as is the strong melodic themes for Thor, Loki, Jane and Odin. The London Symphony Orchestra are also on top form and there's some tremendous, almost Wagnerian outbursts. Marvel's chief (Kevin Freige, I think) is a huge fan of Patrick's music and the comments relating to patrick being forced to write in a certain way are simply not true. You can find out more about all of this when my interview with him goes live in tomorrow's Film Score Monthly Online (www.fsmonlinemag.com) plus hear full length cues from the Thor score, which should give everybody a better idea of Patrick's very worthy achievements.- Tim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt C 468 Posted June 22, 2011 Share Posted June 22, 2011 Elfman's Men in Black 3D is his first threequel. Let's hope it's better than the second film.Interesting that he's in negotiations to score The Hunger Games with T. Bone Burnett. Either way, it's gonna be a packed year for Elfman come next year and hopefully a productive one like last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard P 4,214 Posted June 22, 2011 Share Posted June 22, 2011 That's good news - usually a composer jumps ship by this point in a franchise, so for him to have signed on again hopefully means the 3rd film has promise.I saw bits of the second, but I remember it generally being not very interesting. I don't remember a note of the score. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ollie 1,140 Posted June 22, 2011 Share Posted June 22, 2011 I can't say I'm excited for MB III. They took their time making the 2nd one, I remember Barry Sonnenfeld, in interviews at the time, mentioning they weren't going to rush a sequel. Well "taking their time" resulted in a crap film. The film was so bad I don't even remember Elfman's score. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt C 468 Posted October 16, 2011 Share Posted October 16, 2011 Mychael Danna was never involved, I guarantee it. Even if Marc Webb wanted to use him again, I doubt Marvel would approve. The man's never done an action score.Marvel Studios has no control over the movies Fox and Sony produce -- if anyone has the power to force Marc Webb to get a more 'marketable' composer for ASM, it's Sony music executives and not Kevin Feige. Marvel Entertainment is solely a profit participant for those films.You guys need to understand that just because all movies produced with the Marvel logo at the beginning, doesn't mean they're made by Marvel Studios. All the X-Men, Fantastic Four and Daredevil movies are Fox films, Spider-Man is Sony's property, and so forth. Only movies like Iron Man, Thor and Captain America are true Marvel Studios films, which are distributed by Paramount and Walt Disney Pictures respectively.
