Summarising the plot is mildly impossible, but if you like movies with chases, private detectives, sci-fi MacGuffins, bank robbers, spectacular Australian scenery, the end of the world *and* very silly 'futuristic' hats, you'll find something to enjoy here.

Sorry to hear that Sam Neill has passed away. My favourite performance of his (and indeed my favourite film of all time) is Wim Wender's mammoth UNTIL THE END OF THE WORLD. If you have five hours(!) to spare, check it out.

Despite their protracted recording schedules, STAR WARS sequels weren’t the issue. Health problems resulted in Thomas Newman scoring BRIDGE OF SPIES, and Williams chose THE POST over READY PLAYER ONE (both had overlapping post-production schedules).

Jim Ware @jimjware.bsky.social · 31/05/2026
I don’t think he ever orchestrated for Williams again, but he did of course stand in for him on Spielberg’s BRIDGE OF SPIES.

Jim Ware @jimjware.bsky.social · 31/05/2026
One of four cues he orchestrated for JEDI. The connection to Williams presumably came via Newman’s uncle, Lionel, who was head of music at Fox at the time.

They're cowards for not doing this.
You ever notice how in the Superman the Movie poster, he's got one fist out, and on Superman II he's got two fists out? Well BUCKLE UP, I gave him three and four fists for Superman III and Superman IV, respectively. Hilarious!

I'm limited in ability to post today, so I'll repost last year's BOTD tribute to late film composer Michael Kamen (1948-2003) He departed too soon, but left us with memorable scores and a foundation that has been keeping music education alive in schools for 30 years at mhopus.org #filmsky #moviesky
A black and white photo of composer Michael Kamen, wearing a black tux jacket and white shirt.
He's smiling broadly and throwing his arms wide as he conducts an orchestra.

‘Ferociously strange’ sums it up very well. Not sure I recommend following it up with Martin Campbell’s film remake starring Mel Gibson, but the rejected John Corigliano score is an entertaining (and also quite strange) listen.

I wouldn’t say no to an Alan Silvestri score either!
