Oh wow, this list is hilariously bad. The best composers of ALL TIME and ... Greenwood, Levi, Djawadi...f*cking really ?

No Herrmann, Rozsa, Korngold, Waxman. ? I'm not saying all of them had to be mentioned , but none of them? And no Goldsmith. If you're doing a 12 best of all time, with due respect, I wouldn't even put Elfman or Giacchino on that short list. Some composers I love wouldn't make the list for the best ever, and some I've never connected with would no doubt be on the list.

If they had said this was a list of "composers for the cool kids who buy LP's and like to think they know a bit about films scores " then, okay.

Otherwise, this list is ridiculous. roll eyes

Ran across this item this morning. Admittedly from a deservedly minor film blog, but, I mean, what a load of crap. I'm half surprised that this kid even knew about Alfred Newman.

I'm pretty sure her list is more interesting than yours.



Explain the logic underlying that conclusion, please.


Nothing, FB?
Here I was, hoping your remark could stand up to scrutiny.
Hmm.
