Some people dislike even great scores like "Spartacus", so what? Everyone has a right to voice their own opinion. If we all liked the same things, life would be mundane.
You never know, Bob, BTTF might grow on you after a few listens. If you haven't seen the film yet, doing so might enable you to appreciate the music more. I've been a huge fan of the film ever since I first saw it in the theater when I was 10 years old, so of course there's a huge nostalgic connection there which carries over into my enjoyment of the score. It really is an amazing piece of work, though, regarless of personal taste. Nobody can make you like it, but you've got to admit it's one helluva ride. Every time I listen to this new release, I hear things going on in the score that I've never heard before. Reading Mike Matessino's excellent liner notes also provides a lot of insight into the music, so I recommend reading those as well if you haven't already. All I'm saying is, give it a few more chances before totally dismissing it. If then you still don't like it, well, them's the breaks. No one can fault you for having an opinion, even if it's an unpopular one.

Yeah, I much prefer the 2-CD cases that have the hinge attached to the spine. It's really awkward opening them by lifting the case from the spine so that it folds out longways. Whatever. I'll live.
I don't care so much either way, I just wish they didn't break so damn much.
The problem with this new style case is, the little things that hold the liner notes in almost ALWAYS make marks in the liner notes. Before I ever even unwrap the CD!
Varese 2-CD sets are always in this cases, and it just bothers me.
We should be able to get the best of both worlds. The new style cases, with the normal style liner note holders.
Whatever though, this music is awesome!

Hey Josh: I should give in it several more listens, but I prematurely gave it away. I gave to my ten year old nephrew, who is into film music, and he likes it. Gulp!

Ah, well, at least it went to a good cause! I suppose it's just a matter of time before Nephew Eastman joins us here on the board, eh?

Yeah, he really is into it. I introduced him to various scores and his favorites are Williams and Goldsmith.
