I can't see. "Supposedly Rejected, Rescores, Guest book, Forum, CDs , The Unheard." I'm okay with that because I CAN see the Rejected Score list, Rescores and Interviews. The Rejected Score list is educational and enlightening.

I want to bring this topic back up now and then and support the site. I want "newbies and oldies" to be aware of its existence and educate themselves.

Okay, bad link for Supposedly on the index (home) page; now fixed.

The dropdown links on the main lists page are not working for some reason, but Rescores is accessible from the index page.

I'll have to look into what is holding Unheard up.

Official CD's -- I forgot about that -- undoubtedly Amazon.com and other words and sites that are blocked by the host provider, are keeping the page from displaying. Jokes on them -- I keep the links, just use TinyURL.


I don't think I never got the Guest Book back up.

Forum ... provider might have changed or removed it.

I like the site..and truly enjoy reading what is what...BUT...I truly hope it does not become a Fan Site where fans write junk like on a IMDB, and Wikipedia...Kids, John Williams First Score to Feature the LSO...is 1977 Star Wars...NOT..Images or The Towering Inferno. Fan base sites try hard, but fail to get it truly right...and No, John Williams did NOT use The LSO to score E.T... Pesky Fan Base Sites.

Well, Rejected Film Scores will always be edited only by me, unless I make a will to pass the website onto somebody incase of my death. But I haven't given thoughts on who to ass it to...

So it's not an site that can be edited by anybody.

And while I might cite stuff from IMDb or Wikipedia if it seems legit or is backed up by other sources, I tend to rely on things like interviews, people here that runs labels, and talking to composers/orchestrators/music editors/producers/editors/directors/etc. via e-mail. Why, just the other day I contacted a replacement composer about a title on the Supposedly list and he told me he understood that there were two rejected scores on the project before him, so while I thought I had solved the mystery, instead I find myself with another mystery!



And The Unheard is online, joan hue. I had left the links to it mis-named since at the time I was still working on it, so I have corrected the links. It's still a work-in-progress, and it's severally out-of-date.

Fixing interview pages today (display issues, one page that was mis-named and wasn't up but is now [Ben Lanzarone]). Completely re-doing the awful looking Jeff Rona Q&A page right now.

All embedded links on the Samples page are fixed. Youtube changed the coding for the embeds some while ago and I never corrected the HTML.

Updated the website. Nothing of note; just what most of you already know:

Added "No Time to Die" and "The Rhythm Section" to REJECTED, added "Fantasy Island" to SUPPOSEDLY and added two more entries for "Scoob!".

Actually REJECTED, or more so... not even compose.

I know Margeson compose his score for Fantasy Island way back, as for Scoob!, Giacchino never was attached for the score or other composers before Tom get in.

My site specifically says Giacchino wasn't not involved.

As for "Fantasy Island", there's a barrier that has to be crossed: written, stays in SUPPOSEDLY. Recorded, would warrant a move to REJECTED.

The main lists page is updated a tiny bit (REJECTED and DEMOS), and the SUPPOSEDLY page has been updated with two titles.

Been a slow year for finding out information.

Justin Boggan - I'm not sure if your e-mail is working, but here is a rejected film score I just found about today that isn't listed on your site:

On a Blu-ray extra for the film "Massacre at Central High" (1976) the director, Rene Daalder, says that he co-composed a synthesizer score with David Campbell that was rejected by the producers. It was replaced with a score composed, orchestrated, and conducted by Tommy Leonetti. Leonetti also wrote an original song "Crossroads" with lyrics by Jill Williams.

Relevant links:

Rene Daalder: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rene_Daalder
David Campbell: https://davidmusic.com/
Tommy Leonetti: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tommy_Leonetti
Jill Williams: http://www.jillwilliams.com/

Jill Williams was known at the time for writing a musical called "Rainbow Jones": https://www.playbill.com/production/rainbow-jones-music-box-theatre-vault-0000002603

In any case, I thought you would find this interesting.

Thanks -- I didn't know about that. :-)

I'll add it next time I update the website (which will be soon-ish).

After a long stretch of no updates, I made a small number of updates today to the REJECTED sub section.

Would the use of Hans Zimmer's BROKEN ARROW theme(s) in SCREAM 2 to replace Marco Beltrami's theme for Dewey qualify for this page? smile Maybe under "Unused"?

Not even remotely. Fundamentally not what the site is about.

Justin, thanks for the update.

Meanwhile, I recently posted about this in a Pino Donaggio thread but you may have missed it. According to Pino Donaggio's Wikipedia, he composed a rejected score for Brian De Palma's film "Snake Eyes." This is also mentioned on the film's IMDB trivia page.

A rejected Pino Donaggio score for "Snake Eyes" is not listed on your website, but do you recall hearing anything about this? While of course Wikipedia and IMDB could be incorrect, this actually feels possible given that the film is known to have had a troubled post-production. In any case, something to keep note of and look into. Hopefully there is a way to verify it. The final film features a (wonderful) score by Ryuichi Sakamoto.

No, I know nothing about it. I have no idea what avenues even exist for me to find any information (sometimes this happens). I also would want to know if it's just written or also recorded.
