Watched the "man in space with the cute alien film" (no, not that one) for the 2nd time in the cinema - and let me tell you, I would die for Rocky.

If I had a nickel for every time I've seen a film in 2025 starring Scarlett Johansson & Rupert Friend, with a score by Alexandre Desplat, I'd have two nickels. Which isn't a lot, but it's weird that it happened twice.

The cover artwork for The Phoenician Scheme's score - an overhead photograph of Benicio del Toro's character looking at up, while sat in a bath. Text reads: The Phoenician Scheme, Original Score, Music by Alexandre Desplat.

The cover artwork for Jurassic World Rebirth's soundtrack - a image of a large Mosasaurus launching out of the ocean alongside a boat with 3 humans stood on it. Text reads: Jurassic World Rebirth, Original Motion Picture Soundtrack, Music by Alexandre Desplat.
