...until I see the movie. And I'm sure once I've seen it, I'll kick myself hard for not downloading it for free when I had the chance. Anyone who's seen it, how does this soundtrack stack up to "The Iron Giant" score?
-
Note that regardless of what the Help/FAQ says, the download contains MP3 files, NOT protected WMA files. 256kbps/44.100 khz MP3. For the technogeeks interested. Thanks for the heads up, Scorekeeper!!
-
Bollox!
-
...UP isn't going to watch itself for crying out loud.
-
Thanks Scorekeeper!
-
I thought T-Day weekend it was going to happen... and then was denied... I may have to suck it up and just spin in on my shitty little TV...
-
T.Y.
-
Ermph...
-
please,could someone who downloaded it,to upload it in rapidshare,so the rest of us can get it? thank you.
-
Fuck, what is wrong with me today?
-
Does Giacchino get compensated for any lost residuals on this freebie? Does he receive residuals at all? Just curious.

...no, you're right to wait...unless all your friends with...

...humongous TVs like to talk during movies.

YET. But he stands a real decent chance of becoming as great. To my taste, the only other animation scores that can touch Kamen's Iron Giant would be Thomas Newman's Finding Nemo and Wall.E. Anyway, UP has a very good score, the opening montage music is particularly beautiful. I advise you download now and listen at your leisure (preferably after seeing the film).
-
...the DVD, so I don't feel too bad.
-
thanks anyway though
-
has already seen it and was not around that weekend anyway.
-
I was really hit hard when Kamen died. Iron Giant remains a favorite soundtrack for any type of movie, animated or otherwise. "The Last Piece," or whatever the name of the final track is, moves me to tears.
-
...kicking and screaming...now I love it...the only stupid splurge I can think of that improved my life.
-
just google and download Hotspot Shield for free. Use the program to mask your IP address. It should work. I use it to watch shows on Hulu and the American TV network websites.
-
...purchase I make... which is still aways off, sadly. So I must still rely upon the kindness of folks better off than me...
-
...has been brutal.
-
Got it about six months ago! Wicked cool!

This should really catch on...

You said: "In good faith, I can't do this until I see the movie."Huh? That's like having an artist put out a new CD, at which point you constantly switch off the radio (should a song come on) or you pass up any chance to grab the CD on sale, all because you say to yourself: "I can't listen to this record until I've gone to a concert and seen the artist perform the songs."So, why deny yourself a chance to enjoy some great music beforehand? You can download the score now... see if you enjoy it... and then when you finally DO see the movie, perhaps you'll enjoy it more since you'll be more conscious of the music cues.Hey, if nothing else, why waste a chance to grab the score for free? You said it yourself: "I'm sure once I've seen it, I'll kick myself hard for not downloading it for free when I had the chance." So, spare your butt that kick. Just download the score for free, then save the file and put it off to the side. And once you HAVE seen the movie, you can listen to it then. In the meantime, you'll still have saved yourself a few bucks in the long run.As for the score itself, I think it's great. I LOVED this film (it's in my top 5 for the year) and the score stood out for me. I thought it was restrained and tender in the right spots (say the earlier portions), and fun when the action hit the fan. This was actually one that I wanted to pick up, but now I can put it off for a bit in this tight economy and still enjoy it. So thanks to Disney and whoever else for this promotional stunt! Personally, I think Giacchino is one of the best up and coming people out there. At that rate he's going, and given the cool movies and scores he's doing, he's on track to become one of my favorite and more reliable score composers.
-
...here's hoping that 2010 is slightly less fiscally distasteful than '09 has been, for all of us.
-
I'm glad to hear you think so highly of both the flick and the tunes. What I meant by that opening phrase was that I can't, per my own movie-watching rules, listen to a film score before seeing the movie. I don't want to have any strong emotional responses until I get to experience the thing as a whole. But you and others are right; download now, listen later... which I will do, though it will kill me not to give my ears a little peek first...
-
...a movie I really love more than once every three years or so (holiday moves excepted of course). This puts me at a disadvantage in talkback because I can't quote chapter and verse of movies I love like a lot of you out there...but three years seems to be about the right amount of time to let the emotional charge build up again...

Thanks - free soundtrack for one of the best movies of the year!
-
Why are you all so excited?

What DickJones said.

select people who get to vote during awards season. i.e. members of the academy, musicians in specific guilds, critics who vote on such things, etc.
-
Boo.
-
...the same Michael Giacchino who wrote the utterly hack forgettable score for Star Trek?!? Does not compute...
-
Hate j.j. Abrams if you want, but if he didn't put him on the map Giacchino wouldn't have gotten this gig. I put the chapter where Ellie marries Carl and they live a happy life together (although bittersweet ending) on a-b repeat all the time. Thank you Pete Docter for directing Monster's Inc. and now Up; and of course Giacchino for composing such a beautiful score.
-
Hmm. I thought the Trek score was better than this.
-
...or just the 26-track album that's been available to purchase for download? I suspect the latter, but it'd be nice to confirm.
-
was terribly arousing. i had to leave the theater. spock was toooooooo sexy
-
i'm always like what the hay...when are these guys gunna get out of here! i feed skittles to my lol monster. talk about a kathy bates
-
I missed it. Although I'm not sure it was completely ethical. Were you allowed to do this Scorekeeper?
-
it was a one day promotion, ass.
-
You're a fucking joke. lol.
-
The most acclaimed score of the year, and no CD release, but the box office floparooney Land Of The Lost *does* get a CD release?
-
Giacchino's Land of the Lost score was great. Wonderfully loopy, surreal. It belonged on a better film.
-
...waited until I got home... fucklze...
-
I had no particular problem with Star Trek the movie, but I thought the score was totally unremarkable and easily the weakest part of the whole production. The score for Up though was a major plus for an already great film.
-
Anybody get through who could find a way to spread it around us trusty AICN folk?
-
He always states the truth, and everyone hates him, haha. All he does is say it like it is, yet draws the insults because of it...
-
Like Jerry Goldsmith did all the time, Giacchino seemed to be scoring the best possible version of a Land Of The Lost movie instead of the one that was actually made (if that makes any sense). I just find it weird that an animation company pretty much based on music like Disney couldn't find a few bucks in the budget to get an actual Up CD on store shelves, while a HUGE FLOP like LOTL *did* get an actual CD release. Pretty much every review of Up praised the music, and yet no CD? Yeah, I ended up downloading the album (although for only three bucks), but I'd jump on an actual CD release with ARTWORK and LINER NOTES printed in a COOL-SMELLING BOOKLET.
-
You should also like BurnHollywood then too, since that's his identity to agree with himself with.
-
He was scoring the great version of the material.
The answer as to why no pressed CD? Disney is moving away from them. Inane but oh well. I too would love that soundtrack on CD. The film was pure gold that hits me every time. -
and a film

I noticed that The Princess & The Frog has a pressed CD release
by nasty in the pasty
Why? Just because that has songs instead of only underscore? What bullshit.
-
I have the download from iTunes, was this the actual complete score, or just the commercial release again?
-
Gorramnit! Finally AICN does something cool and its too fucking late! Aye Carumba!
-
I don't like listening to movie scores if I haven't seen the movie yet (if I plan to see the movie soon). Though I broke that rule to hear Alexandre Desplat's BEAUTIFUL score track "The Meadow" for fucking "New Moon". Yeah yeah, I know... but give it a listen- its amazing.
-
it ruins the soundtrack for me. As amazing as the score is, I just can't listen without being reminded of the shittiness of the film. Speed Racer comes to mind. Incredible score, but I can't listen to it anymore.
-
in hmv or other music stores. the record companies handled downloading very badly. if a cd is a certain price, that most peope cannot afford during a recession. how are they expected to get music. so they are being told download it illeagally and be cuaght and pay a massive fine or have your internet access cut off or download legally. we all know the prowblems there. more and more you are seeing the message not available outside....
-
Thanks man. Gods bless.
-
not only did we have to wait an extra 6 months for the damn move, now we dont get this either! im moving off this stupid rock!
-
But it's okay, I'll Piratebay just out of frustration. I was gonna buy it, but hey

How can I ever explain to my kid what download is legal and whic
by caipirina
So, if we were in the US, we could download this now for free ... but since we are not, we could try the pirate channels and get the same thing, but once 3-strike policy becomes common place, we might disconnect the whole household from the internets ... there is just no clear line and this is creeping me out ..and again, I have no clue how to educate my child about this ...

Hey ScoreKeeper. Keep up the great work on AICN!
I have a question for you. Are there any available music sets, or individual releases of early Disney Animated Scores? Not the songs, just the scores to films like Snow White, Pinoccio, Jungle Book and the like? I see lots of CDs with the songs, but I would like to get the other music too. -
It depends on the title. SNOW WHITE was released on CD by Disney in 2001 to coincide with the DVD release. I think PINOCCIO as well. If you ever have questions about "Was ____ ever released?", go check out www.soundtrackcollector.com. It's a pretty damn good site which keeps track of just about everything out there, CDs, LPs, cassettes, iTunes, you name it.

There are plenty of exceptional scores to lousy movies
by nasty in the pasty
I had always loved Jerry Goldsmith's score to the third Omen movie, The Final Conflict, but until I finally watched the movie a few years back, I had no idea Goldsmith's transcendently beautiful final cue was written for a scene with Sam Neill gets owned by a giant, glowing plastic Jesus. It still doesn't affect the pleasure I get out of the soundtrack CD, though. I look at it as, I'm geting something out of a bad movie that most people do not...a great score that transcends the terrible movie it was written for and makes for a rewarding listening experience on it's own.
-
releases that are pressed for 2 copies at 1,000 bucks a piece.
-
...are limited because there are literally only about 3,000 hardcore film music fans in the ENTIRE WORLD. If they made an album like Logan's Run or Baby: Secret Of The Lost Legend as anunlimited pressing, the soundtrack labels would lose their shirts. Even a huge blockbuster like Back To The Future wouldn't sell much more than 3,000 copies. It sucks, but it's the ONLY WAY we can still keep getting this music, aside from sucky downloads.
-
I'll check that site out!
