Hello yes and welcome back.
It seems like only yesterday we were enjoying the Blade Runner 2047 product or service.
I thought it was 'good' but a lot of other people thought it was 'fucking garbage' [via something to do with Jared Leto, but also the broad who was in House Of Cards, but also Harrison Ford who only agreed to reprise his role if he could 'wear a T Shirt and be on set for like 3 days max'].
Blade Runner 2047? More like Harrison Ford Does Not Work 24/7 - amirite?
I guess the truth is somewhere in the middle.
From what I understand the popular musician Vangelis has 'been retired' [via dead]. 😞😞
Old Media is banging on about his work on Chariots Of Fire.MP4.
No one gives a toot about that biz; it's just a bunch of bros running on a beach and it also looks very gay tbh.
Unfortunately, I have not watched the Chariots Of Fire product or service, nor do I intend to. 😃😃
Vangelis' masterpiece was his work on the 1982 Blade Runner. Scoring the landscape. Reading the scene - and playing into it. His masterful deployment of a subtle bleepbloop when a character inclined their head.
Is current movie music 'garbage'?
Blame Christoper Nolan or whatever hacks they have working at Disney/Marvel but recent movie music sounds like a bunch of BS; it's all just redonk honks or some dumdumdumdumdum-DUMDUM crescendo. I went to see the new Dr Strange film and if someone put a gun to my head, I couldn't hum a tune from anything I heard in that film.
It all fucking sucks. 😒😒
Q&A
Vangelis is really hard to spell. It's Greek. (Not really a question.)
What was the last movie OST you remember?
A) Avengers (baaaBAAA-baaa-ba-ba-ba)
B) Interstellar (tick tok tick tok tick tick tok and then some piano stuff)
C) Netflix Bird Cage. She is blind so idk.
D) My Quiet Place. She is deaf so idk that either.
E) _____ miscellaneous Marvel film that plays Queen.MP3?
F) Jurassic Park.MP3 was pretty cool.
When you hear a song inorganically shoehorned into a film are you like, "No. No thank you."
