Yet you still felt the urge to actually watch the trailer...
Just wondering why... It's not like it would include anything from Wallfisch's score...
It was actually on tele and I wasn't able to escape or mute it, visiting friends. Damn, thought I was hard on the current rotten state of things. Respect, Petr, you are an extreme hater, bravo!
If an unsolicited view of a shitty film trailer is support, you must REALLY have a black heart!
God forbid Marco ever does one of these things, you'll be sunk.
I wonder, will you see Renfield, since that supports the current bad filmmaking trend as well?

Venom 2. A bad movie and a bad score. I'm really thankful that Beltrami (and his collaborators) are going back and re-releasing better editions of older scores (hoping for Blade 2 soon!) because his music for much of the past decade (if not more) has been unbelievably underwhelming as a musical voice for film.
Dull surprise. Again.
I do like and own a ton of Beltrami's work, but chalk up any composer's decline to: the times, studio/director choices & insecurities, woldly reduced window from spotting to final mixing, requiring many hands to just get 'er dun. Blah blah.
Would be nice if MB would do at least one concert work (larger forces, since I think there is some chamber piece out there?), before hanging it up.
Back to Flash, not holding my breath Wallfisch will do anything special. These $800 million superhero things, once a real operatic canvas, are just dumping grounds for background noise now.

Huh, I thought the Fear Street scores had some really strong highlights, and since 2013 have also really liked Beltrami's work on A Good Day to Die Hard, The Homesman, Seventh Son, Gods of Egypt, and Fantastic Four (with Philip Glass).

Well I only went back 10 years because you said "for the past decade". The Homesman was 9 years ago.

Not a fan of the more recent Seventh Son or Gods of Egypt?

A Good Day to Die Hard, The Homesman, Seventh Son, Gods of Egypt, and Fantastic Four (with Philip Glass).
Not that anyone cares, I own everyone of these, enjoy each, often drop one into a 5cd carousel mix...but remember not a note, except the unique timbres & colours of The Homesman.
Doesn't make them bad, just Film Score Fast Food.

Yet pretty much all that Glass did was took the credit.
You should also check WAITING FOR BARBARIANS - great movie and highly inventive and original score. and speaking of the last decade there is also L'EMPEREUR DE PARIS, LOVE AND MONSTERS, THE WAY I SEE IT, FORD V FERRARI, LONG SHOT, MATHILDE, GODS OF EGYPT, BEN HUR, THE NIGHT BEFORE, FANTASTIC FOUR, SEVENTH SON, 1864 and THE GIVER among those also mentioned before (The Homesman and Fear Street especially but FS occasionally suffer from a bit of temp-love). So plenty of great and HIGHLY variable scores across many genres. And even more so if we include 2013, which was particularly strong year.
