Okay, what soundtracks have been mentioned since I last posted? I saw Holden's post about John Williams. I agree, he doesn't have so much a style as a small bucket of techniques that he pours on each movie he does. I mean, it's beautiful and nobody does anything quite like him, but he also does nothing else.

"YOUR SONG WAS SO BAD THAT IT ACTUALLY MADE ME VOMIT."

[Sarah]

REALLY? i liked it... sorta.

[Sarah]

I just spent like 5 min reading the first 2 pages and WOW! I cried from laughing.

[Sarah]

The first page of this topic.

[Taylor]

Guys, here's the sad thing.

Composers ARE a little like that. >.<

[Sarah]

What?

[Taylor]

Did you watch the John Williams video?

[Sarah]

Omgg! Yes! I died of laughter

[Taylor]

Yup. And that's us in a nutshell. We really do that sort of stuff -- the singing, the competitive nature, asking people to remember tunes. XD

[Sarah]

........bahahahahahahahahahha!!!!!!!! Whoa whoa!!! Are you serious? I need to be around these people XD

[Taylor]

I compose. Not yet on the grand scale of John Williams, but I have many of the same quirks. I whistle more than talk. XD

[Sarah]

You need to do that in class, church, weddings, and funerals. Note reactions

[Taylor]

I've done it in class. New teachers are still weirded out.

Done it in church. Everyone just tunes me out.

Don't know anyone getting married for at least another two years.

I'm usually crying at the funerals I attend. But I can show up at a random one, if that counts.

[Sarah]

I want to look up the cow suit thing tomorrow.

[Sarah]

@Taylor yep it counts lol

[Sarah]

I'll like it up now

[Sarah]

[Sarah]

[Isaac]

@ Yue:

Okay so I can't reply because I'm on this website that allows me to get on here through the school filters BUT YES ALAN SILVESTRI'S AVENGERS AND DAFT PUNK'S TRON AND AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH AND HAN FREAKING ZIMMER

AND JOHN WILLIAMS FTW

[Jo]

AND ALEXANDRE DESPLAT JOHN POWELL MICHAEL GIACCHINO DANNY ELFMAN LUDOVIC BOURCE HOWARD SHORE.

[Taylor]

Howard Shire?

Is that Mr. Shore in hobbit form? :P

Alexandre Desplat...still don't fully appreciate him. He just doesn't write memorable themes.

*hmms Playful Pizzicato*

[Taylor]

Moonrise Kingdom. Fits my point almost exactly. It was his best score by far, but that's like commenting on how Grumpy is the tallest of the seven dwarves or something. He's still short. Similarly, Moonrise Kingdom was really good, but it's like the best of my least favorite of composers. Does that make sense?

Hans Zimmer and John Williams will always hold a special place in my heart though.

For some reason I read that as "it's just a strip tease" and my mind was going to some interesting places...bahahahaha.

Oh, and it looks really good. :)

[Taylor]

Wait...she didn't say strip tease? :#| Okay....

@Emily only if u talk about something else

[Taylor]

Um...we're not really being crude or anything. Just commenting on how we misread something.

explain how that is fun. i need to know. (lol)

[Taylor]

Um. It's making fun of Yue. What's not fun about that?

i-it's mean...

[Taylor]

@BT

Except when the victim of our teasing knows it's all in fun. Then he/she laughs along, so it's not mean.

So, I'm reading this book. "Perks of Being a Wallflower." All you hipster writers who like indie movies should have read it. I have a question. Why does Charlie have such a childish voice for a sixteen-year-old? Like, it's endearing and I love him, but his naïveté is really surprising.

[Sarah]

@Taylor You make me mad! I can't read that book and want to sooo bad!

[Taylor]

Sorry...?

[Sarah]

It's fine just joking anyway. Has anyone seen Peacock?

Yay, Perks! <3 I love that book. The movie is great, too.

I don't think it's that he's necessarily "childish" but that in the beginning, he's not really supposed to be that good of a writer. But his voice gets more mature as the story progresses and he reads and learns more, etc. I get what you mean, though ... there are times when he also just seems unrealistically naïve. Like, he's 15 and doesn't know what masturbation is ... um. But yeah, he's cool.

[Taylor]

I'm only part of the way in -- he just finished Christmas. :/ But it's beautifully written, and I love the kid.

[Brigid ✩, No tears in the writer, no tears in the reader.]

Agggh so sad. D: And yes, I agree.

[Taylor]

Well we're sorry you can't write right right now. XD
