ScoreKeeper's Shagadelic Interview With Composer George S. Clinton!! AUSTIN POWERS!! WOUNDED KNEE!! HAROLD AND KUMAR 2!!

But when... by spiderinside	Oct 22nd, 2007 09:01:05 AM
...do we get the AICN P-Funk Allstars interview? I'm also looking forward to hearing from either Sly and/or the Family Stone.
What is this Harold an Kumar you speak of? by FILMFUNK	Oct 22nd, 2007 09:12:04 AM
and WHat does the S stand for?
Cool stuff. by MikeTheSpike	Oct 22nd, 2007 09:36:59 AM
Good call on the Quincy Jones question. I'd had the same reaction. I was also wondering if the music he used during the intro during the fake movie credits (Danny DeVito, Kevin Spacey, etc.) was a deliberate David Arnold reference, or not. Anyway, here's hoping Mr. Clinton's excellent work can start moving from Disney comedy to some real mainstream stuff. He's definitely got the chops.
Wow, interesting interview. by DerLanghaarige	Oct 22nd, 2007 09:49:02 AM
Seriously, I never thought that anybody would even care for interviewing "The other George Clinton". Thanks for doing it, Scorekeeper!
You forgot by skimn	Oct 22nd, 2007 09:50:34 AM
to ask how much John Barry influenced his Austin Powers scores..
S stands for “I was never in Funkadelic” by ironic_name	Oct 22nd, 2007 12:14:59 PM

This guy is the Joel Schumacher of the scoring world, by El Scorcho	Oct 22nd, 2007 12:54:02 PM
judging by his resume.
What? No APPLE?!? by geekzapoppin	Oct 22nd, 2007 12:56:00 PM
Not only did Mr. Clinton write the songs to this glorious mess of a film, but he acted in it as well. Any aficionado of bad movies worth his salt should find a copy of THE APPLE and bask in its misguided, over-the-top glory.

An interview with Ramin Djawadi
He was awesome in House Party... by Abin Sur	Oct 22nd, 2007 02:04:22 PM
Holding his own against both Kid AND Play.
Austin Powers by Prossor	Oct 22nd, 2007 05:19:12 PM
agreed shuttlepod. the first one was silly but dammed if it didn't have a bunch of funny shit (everything with Dr. Evil is fried gold) however the sequels is a completely other story, in that they blew rank ass wind, if 1 was a parody of bond and swinging 60s, the second two were a parody of a parody. how many forced and shitty jokes can we take?!!?!
Austin Powers by JackNF	Oct 22nd, 2007 06:23:05 PM
Personally I dig Spy Who Shagged Me over the original, but Goldmember was definitely trying too hard for its own good working off it's own over-hype. Actually, at this point if they managed to put together a decent script I'd be up for watching a 4th film in that series...
I saw him recently... by grungies	Oct 22nd, 2007 06:24:40 PM
He was talking about film scores along with Michael Giacchino and John Powell. I have to say he's a damn good composer, a whole hell of a lot better than most of the movies he's works on.
As always, a great interview. by brokentusk	Oct 22nd, 2007 07:01:55 PM
ScoreKeeper, your interviews are always such a pleasure to read. Good job! Loved Clinton's MORTAL KOMBAT score.
I like Clinton's Wild Things score by Osmosis Jones	Oct 22nd, 2007 11:43:01 PM
Very cool and Herrmann-y.
I like Clinton's oval office score by ironic_name	Oct 23rd, 2007 10:53:53 AM
the first AP movie was fairly cult, I remember matt laur saying he liked it and everyone else poopooed his opinion, then when the sequel came out they were pretending they loved the first one. thats what happens when everyone love raymond went from average rating funny show to overblown machine of unfunny. or when WE watched burton's nightmare when it came out. NOW, they make toys and stuff for emos, but its OUR whimsy, WE shoulda gotten the toys, eh.
matt lauer by ironic_name	Oct 23rd, 2007 10:54:53 AM
tired.
WOUNDED KNEE on CD by ScoreKeeper	Oct 23rd, 2007 04:47:09 PM
I've been getting a couple of emails asking if Clinton's score for BURY ME AT WOUNDED KNEE is going to come out on CD. I followed up with George and he said Varese Sarabande will be releasing it in about a month or so.
