25th? Huh, I made a list a couple years ago and counted 22. Wonder what I'm missing....this and Migration are the two since then so I'm missing one (I have nothing since HTTYD3 in 2019)

How To Train Your Dragon 3 was his 22nd.

23rd = Migration ( https://filmscoremonthly.com/board/posts.cfm?threadID=150865&forumID=1&archive=0 )
24th = Thelma The Unicorn ( https://filmscoremonthly.com/board/posts.cfm?threadID=152796&forumID=1&archive=0 )
25th = That Christmas

Powell + Animated + Christmas? This could be very good! Has he ever done a Christmas theme score before?

He answers that question in his instagram post that I put in the main post here.

Most if not all social media sites block internet users unless they are registered members now.
Including Facebook, Twitter (X) and Instagram. Reddit just starting blocking non-users last night.

I know, I'm saying I copied the text of it into the main post here.

It says "my first Xmas movie" in it.

I'm sure Powell is gonna knock it out of the park.

Is this Scottish or something? Anyway, not interested in the film (after watching that trailer) but hope we get a banger of a soundtrack from Powell.

Clip with score!

Powell's score sounds reliable as always and I'm delighted to see some cues are rather lengthy, at least for an animated film like this. I have high hopes for the score.

The animation looks a bit like A.I. or A.I. assisted. I dunno maybe I'm going to be paranoid about this from this point forward considering Coke made a whole animated commercial with A.I. It literately has the same color pallet and atmosphere of that Coke commercial. It has that rather over saturated look of A.I.

John Powell delivers another winner. This is an excellent score. I can't stop listening to this.
