Not in my understanding.
It's not sheepes ,either.
.
'Fish is the more commonly used plural, and can be used regardless of how many species are present. Fishes tends to be used as a plural when there are more than one species, especially in scientific settings.'

If Balfe had scored this, he would have used Mancina's themes. Guaranteed.

You have all this knowledge in science and language, yet what have you done with your life other than waste it here on FSM?

Composers aren't just handed a film and told "Do what you feel like."

Surely, the director and producers chose whether to use the old themes or not.

Not saying Wallfisch didn't weigh in. But composers aren't given free rein.

Oh, I'm sure Lorne would have sneaked in a Mancina-theme or two without telling the filmmakers...

Here's what I don't quite understand:

Alien - One alien
Aliens - Many aliens

Predator - One predator
Predators - Many predators

Twister - Many twisters
Twisters - um…?


Ones singular the other is plural.


Many thanks ^ ^But if you read carefully, the point is: Twister already had many twisters, so in what way does Twisters up the ante the way Aliens and Predators did?

I think, there could be some legal issues with this approach and no one sane would risk a career, because he thinks, he's more clever than others. And this is a $200 million budget movie, everyone involved is playing it safe.

If this anything to do with the original?, no one thinked about that.

If Balfe, which i consider, a very average composer to compare to Wallfisch (much better and capacitated), would make any difference if he was the composer in the movie, using Mancina's theme, making a good score to begin with.

Balfe in Bad Boys dosen't come closer to Mancina make in the first (was another time, another composer), his work in the last two are better to what Rabin make in the second, yes, absolutly, but still, dosen't match for what Mancina make for the first, even using his theme in those movies, a very enjoyble scores, don't get my wrong, but i don't think would be my top choice to make in a movie like this.

Specially, when he compose that awful score that was Hurricane Heist, even the most weakest Wallfisch score is better than that.

Good point and I agree! Perhaps by Twisters they meant the natural occurring formation and the game?

Hurricane Heist was truly awful, but honestly, why did he say yes to scoring that film? There is nothing about that film that was appealing. He needed to build his career at that time, but he still didn't need Hurricane Heist.

Something that fans of Jerry Goldsmith, Alan Silvestri, Christopher Young and David Newman have frequently asked about their assignments.

Except those were capable of delivering goods for shitty films. Not shitty scores for no matter what quality the films are as is common with barfe.

Just came back from seeing it.

Lot of fun, an old-school big summer blockbuster, enegertic and vibrant, great chemistry between Daisy Edgar-Jones and Glen Powell.

And yes, Wallfisch's score is great in the vein of Flash, some of the action moments are to me, the best from the summer, supposedly, the score comes in two weeks.

1997 called. It wants its "thing called, it wants its thing back" joke structure back.

David Spade added: "That was a really funny joke … back in 1997 when I did it a bazillion times."
