"John Williams is not underrated. Those major movies he scored are proof of that. But yeah, he's still a musical genius."Williams just varies the same score over and over. Watch Raiders, then watch Empire. You'll see what I mean.

Backdraft not withstanding."John Williams is not underrated. Those major movies he scored are proof of that. But yeah, he's still a musical genius."Williams just varies the same score over and over.

"HandsomeDead said:How come it can't go for the Oscar? It's a shame but any time TDK can't get an Oscar, i'm pleased. I loved JNH's minimal score for Michael Clayton."I concur. It's lucky TDK had both James Newton Howard and Hans Zimmer on it because were it just Zimmer, it would have been exactly the same as his other famous scores. Backdraft not withstanding."Yeah, too bad their score can't be considered for an Oscar. lawlzSeriously, though, James Newton Howard is one of my faves. That dood can do just about anything!"
Batman Begins couldn't either. It's due to the fact that they didn't contribute 70% or more to the score. There are five people credited for the score, and JNH and Zimmer together don't take more than 70%...even though the other three said that they really don't care about it at all and want JNH and Zimmer to get nominated. = / Whatever.
