"A League of Their Own" makes fun use of the big band swing idiom for a fun comedy score. Not enough of it was heard on the CD.

Propably The peacemaker.
Concerning the previous remark I totally agree. Most of his scores are overrated. The last few months there are many threads concerning Zimmer some sarcastic and some not. Anyway nowadays my problem with Zimmer is that I don't trust that what is in a film score of his is actually HIS. I mean all those ghost writers and arrangers around him. I just no longer consider him a composer. At least not in the same way that I considered the old masters or even people like Giacchino, Desplat, Tyler, Eidelman, Doyle.
Secondly I don't have that much time to listen to new scores more than 2 or 3 times. Generally if nothing impresses me after 2 or 3 listens then DELETE. So it's much safer to spend my money to rerecordings of old scores or expansions of old scores.
I prefer listening to classical music and favourite film scores by Poledouris, Korngold, Rozsa, Newman Alfred and Thomas and Randy, Steiner, Williams, Goldsmith, Young Victor and Christopher, Herrmann, Mancini... why waste my time with mediocrity. He may be a very good dramatist but a great composer HE IS NOT. My time is precious and musically is given to the great composers. I give Zimmer a chance with every new score he writes but even if I like it I just don't trust him.

The Holiday. A very endearing and fun score, and as charming as the story.
Hannibal, dialogue included.
Love love love the Hannibal CD, dialogue included!
Whoa. You two win. Leave mine dialogueless.

I stand firmly by my position Mr. Marshall, your thread has only two responses! Poor chap. Let me chime in there with you.
Thanks for your support, citizen!
