Steve Jablonsky Is A God
The Transformers score is finally out and it is amazing. It's worth the money for a clean version of "Autobot Arrival".
I can't believe we had to wait for this whereas the cheap, cash-in popular music CD was out when the movie was released months ago. At least now the wait is over.

Lucky man. I have mine pre-ordered with the DVD. Can't wait for them to arrive!Admiral Valdemar wrote:The Transformers score is finally out and it is amazing. It's worth the money for a clean version of "Autobot Arrival".

The first CD was just, ugh, why bother. I'm glad I read up on it before putting cash down. Gimme a score soundtrack any day over that other nonsense.

Dammit, I didn't think it was out until the day of the DVD release here.
Best Buy, here I come.

I couldn't agree more.
Its sad that I had to get my Transformers soundtrack fix off YouTube clips for so long.

Goddamn, this music is incredible. Even the opening "Autobots" track alone is worth the price.
Only up to "Optimus" at this point, but so far, its making the night at the office go by fast.
Jablonsky better return for the sequal, because I want a track named "Nemesis", dammit

I've been waiting for this score since the first time I saw the movie. I was holding myself back from whacking people on the head for saying the movie's music score was bland and had no discernible themes, when I identified at least four themes by the second time I saw the movie.
I wonder if Hans Zimmer will take it away from Jablonsky like he did with Klaus Badelt for Curse of the Black Pearl now that the movie is a hit.

I really, really hope not. Jablonski earned a ton of respect from me (and a lot of other people too I'd imagine) for his work on this movie, and he deserves to expand on his own themes.Old Plympto wrote:

What is with Amazon being retarded about release dates? They say this doesn't come out for a couple weeks, and they say that Absolute Sandman Vol 2 doesn't come out in a couple weeks either, despite it having shipped to stores YESTERDAY.

I have it and it's ace. I would heartily recommend it to anyone that either likes film scores or who has never bought one but might be considering it.

I have the same problem and am still waiting for mine to arrive with the bundled movie. I saved some money buying them together, with the free shipping, so I guess it will be worth it.DPDarkPrimus wrote:What is with Amazon being retarded about release dates?

Yeah, I know. For some reason I thought the score CD (that I thought had already shipped) was shipping separately from the DVD in my order, but I just checked and it's coming in one shipment. Sometimes if a part of a multiple order is delayed, the in-stock items will ship separately.DPDarkPrimus wrote:Well the movie isn't due out until the 16th, so it would make sense that your order hasn't shipped yet.

I'm going to buy it real soon. I saw it in IMAX last week, and I got so many fucking chills from the Autobot arrival scene and the Air Strike on Scorponok.
Brains!
