Posted by: Dill Doe 31st March 2021, 06:16 PM
Omg I love that Shape of Water track.
Posted by: Tafty 31st March 2021, 06:17 PM
Random but, when trying to find the name of the composer for 'Regina George' I wasn't particularly shocked to learn that he did a lot of the score for 'Dexter'. It makes SO much sense.

So tight at the top as there are just a handful of points separating the top 4, but this gives us another leader as Danny Elfman’s classic ‘Ice Dance’ jumps into the lead.
Posted by: Tafty 31st March 2021, 06:21 PM
'Define Dancing' is gorgeous. So glad that it got sent. Thank you Ansel
Rolfe jumping right into the top 10!

Thanks for hosting this great contest! After I saw all the entries I immediately thought of many better choices I could have sent, and so I am hoping that we can do this contest again someday, maybe changing the theme to an era like “80’s Scores” or “TV Scores” is another I have ideas for!

Posted by: Tafty 31st March 2021, 06:32 PM
So iconic I forgot to switch that video out in my prep work 
Amended now x
But srs, I don't think I really took notice much of 'Hacksaw Ridge' score to begin with, but that is stunning.
Posted by: Chez Wombat 31st March 2021, 06:32 PM
Elisa's Theme was beautiful to hear again, one of the best parts of that movie Wasn't massive on Hacksaw Ridge, but that score was great. I don't remember it sounding that good.
I have never seen Edward Scissorhands oops I need to fix this x

James Horner manages to catch up with Danny Elfman again and re-overtakes, but that +12 thrusts Johann Strauss right behind them. Those 7 points prove vital for James Horner’s other offering in the competition as he makes his way towards his 2nd top 10! Both Joe Hisashi’s entries are currently there, can James overthrow one of them?

Love 'Pan's Labyrinth' and this piece always stops me dead in my tracks
Sorry I haven't been following this as closely as I wanted to - currently multitasking. Thanks for any points so far <3
Posted by: Tafty 31st March 2021, 06:57 PM
'Lily's Theme' was a nice choice to use from the HP score!
'RedBlueGreen' was another one I never really took any notice of until now. The film is fantastic, so I highly recommend it to people!
Love that choice from Jade, too. So many great entries! I really should rewatch 'Pan's Labyrinth' at some point as I've only seen it once (and loved it).

Joe Hisashi’s entries are still attached at the hip! That 2nd set of 12 points for Rolfe Kent’s ‘Mean Girls’ soundtrack boosts him out of the bottom 3!
ALL TO PLAY FOR!

Quite possibly the most iconic, non-theme, score of all time?
I've never seen '2001: A Space Odyssey'. I want to, but I've heard it's quite dull (by a few peeps)! So I've been hesitant!

WhoOdyssey sending the entire score to the credits of one of Pixar's absolute BEST.
I think it would've been higher in my points had it just been the first part (gets pretty repetitive after a bit)! But what a great score.

Catching up, I knew I'd be near the bottom with this one, but I'm glad I got to send it as Eighth Grade is a phenomenal and really underrated movie and the soundtrack always fills me with life *.*
Blue Danube and that whole sequence is obviously iconic so that coming close to winning would be wonderful, both Ghibli scores incredible (need to rewatch Spirited Away!) and the Inside Out credits song was a quirky choice, but very fun (loved Triple deck Gum tacked on right at the end *_)

Thank you to everyone for putting up with my nagging and taking part. It’s truly been what I hoped this round would be. Hoping to make more of these in the future, I might make a thread so I can post an announcement as to when I plan to do the next one (I don’t think it’ll be until end of Summer-ish though, but we’ll see - I’ll post it in there.)
Onto the next one :heart

Oh wow that was very close in the end! I had no expectations to win this contest, and this becomes my first ever BuzzJack contest win! 
Thank you Jonjo for hosting this contest and for all the new discoveries that were made! Commiserations to Leonardo for being runner up on the same points tally too! . Wish there was a widget for winning this contest, but never mind.

'Ice Dance' was one of the only songs here that didn't really do anything for me oops but congrats Wardy on the win xx
I didn't want to point it out and make a fuss out of it but it's amusing me a bit that Bal just sent the same song he sent to the BJSC Movies spinoff presumably just having the exact same thought process not remembering that he sent it before already?
Slaying with less than 1/4 of the points of the second from last place song

That’s the first time I’ve ever sent something to a song contest that someone else considered sending!
Sorry for denying you a win Ansel!

Very happy with that winner and outcome for Stealing the Enterprise. I knew it wasn’t competitive but as soon as the thread went up I knew I was sending something from Star Trek and I think that’s one of the absolute standouts from the whole franchise.

Not a bad finish there and in the middle of the pack! Thanks all for voting my entry! Huge congratulations to Wardy for his first music contest win and hopefully there will be a widget for him soon! It is a really nice score there and the classic Blue Danube finishing just 2 points behind is really nice to see! Kudos to Tafty for hosting and the idea! Hope to see more similar contests in the future with TV or game scores!

Haus and Iz literally had same amount of top 3 scores and votes

Congrats Wardy! Wasn't actually one of my favourites but it does makes me want to watch that film more so I can see it in context! The rest of the top 5 were all great too, great to see both Ghibli ones in there, and it's been so long since I've seen Casper and that one sounded so good.
Could've gone worse for Anna, you all need to go see the movie so you can see it in context and stan it more xx
Absolutely loved this contest and I am so here for it being a regular thing so I can send my more cheap option I wanted to send here Thanks for hosting!

I would highly recommend the score for Star Trek II - most of the motifs in “Stealing The Enterprise” originate there and it’s very easy to see the Horner trademark sound (and indeed many similarities to Titanic). It doesn’t include the Alexander Courage/Jerry Goldsmith fanfare but it’s hands down my favourite score.
And for anyone interested in further further Star Trek listening Dennis McCarthy’s Generations Suite and Cliff Eidelman’s The undiscovered Country Suite are also well worth a listen.

Can second Star Trek II for sure, I went back and listened to some after Stealing The Enterprise and Battle of the Mutara Nebula is very similar but more tense (as suits the situation in that movie). Great pick though, loved some real classical bombasticness showing up in here and 'Stealing The Enterprise' does incorporate so many of my favourite Star Trek leitmotifs.
Excellent results, thank you all for letting me come so close and well done all, good songs all around, I do love The Sixth Station as well, though I'd have picked a few other Ghibli tracks before that, something from Howl's Moving Castle perhaps, as that has a stunning soundtrack. Considered a lot of them going through my choices and now I want to rewatch half of the movies.
I had so much choice for this, I was considering whether to send some Klaus Badelt or Hans Zimmer, or some songs from RADWIMPS (Your Name) or Kensuke Ushio (A Silent Voice), would definitely welcome another round some time.

Ah can't believe I missed the results! Thanks for sorting this Jonjo - some really great pieces of music there that I'd not heard before.
And I should have guessed that you were the reason I couldn't use Portals

Just realised I didn't comment on the final results!! Congrats Wardy, that was an excellent entry so a lovely winner
Happy I came top 10 but ngl I'm kinda disappointed at the same time aha that it only just snuck top half It's one of my fave instrumental pieces ever!! Ty for all the points tho & hope some of y'all made a great discovery (now go watch la la land x)
And thanks Jonjo for hosting this!!!! It's been great

Oops forgot about this and I nearly won! Thanks for all the votes, and all the beautiful discoveries. And congrats to Wardy

I meant to reply earlier but glad the deduction didn't affect the position too much! Wonderful winner but in general, absolutely wonderful competition. Was so hard to narrow down for this, thanks for hosting it Jonjo!
