Martin Want by martinh65	Mar 10th, 2009 01:35:14 PM
I am so wanting this stack of swag. I haven't gotten any movie swag like this since I worked for the movie theater in Cartersville,GA some 10 and more years ago.
IMPORTANT: Available internationally? by raw_bean	Mar 10th, 2009 01:43:32 PM
Is this contest open to all, or just those in the US?

I couldn't hear anything in the theater... by teethgnasher	Mar 10th, 2009 02:26:12 PM
because someone brought a screaming toddler to a 2.5 hr rated R movie. Can you get a refund if the theater experience (for an adult movie)is compromised by young children?

Oh man by Starfox221	Mar 10th, 2009 03:10:11 PM
Whole set of music is amazing. Best of luck!
anybody else think the 'score' was garbage by awepittance	Mar 10th, 2009 04:14:02 PM
i was frankly shocked when i heard what sounded like another cookie cutter heavy metal infused soulless Tyler Bates movie soundtrack in Watchmen after countless apologists said 'it sounds retro like Vangelis in Bladerunner' WTF?!?! how could anybody even utter those words? Anybody could have handled this score better than Tyler Bates. Yeah the 'soundtrack' has problems, too obvious song choices, etc but compared to this god awful score its actually kind of enjoyable.
would be nice to get a 'silent score' option on the DVD by awepittance	Mar 10th, 2009 04:16:22 PM
so the fanboys can put in their own score and soundtrack. I've seen a few DVDs like this but this one needs it BAAAAD. What's strange is that the Watchmen motion comic score which is fully orchestrated works a SHIT LOAD better than the music in the film. It's a sad state when people get paid money (tyler bates) to make a score that is depths worse than a score for it's cartoon version
Please Tyler Bates quit the movie industry by awepittance	Mar 10th, 2009 04:17:09 PM
i promise this is my last spit of venom
Geez... scared me... by Kid Z	Mar 10th, 2009 04:52:42 PM
...for a second there, I thought the header said "Watchmen Musical"! I thought: "Already???" Actually, I liked the music in Watchmen. Sometimes inappropriate cues for given scenes (Hallelujah... someone described that as "the weirdest Leonard Cohen video, ever") but overall a creative and interesting score. One of the few things I liked about the film. (Except for MCR over the closing credits, no call for that, really!)
Teethgnasher... by Kid Z	Mar 10th, 2009 04:55:54 PM
...I've gotten a raincheck for another showing of a film due to being annoyed by mewling children. Took an argumant with the theatre manager, though. Don't get too angry or offensive, just keep stating your point, sternly but politely. Asking for the name and number of the regional manager helps a lot too.
After hearing what passed for the "score" in this movie... by JackPumpkinhead	Mar 10th, 2009 05:36:40 PM
...I was actually wishing that Tyler Bates HAD plagiarized someone good once again. I've heard better movie music from Marilyn Manson and rappers than from this guy.
blade runner by wplisken	Mar 10th, 2009 10:13:35 PM
actually it went further than just being vintage vangelis. it actually used melodies from the blade runner soundtrack. i was a bit confused as it happened as it was so blatant. but it did.
I sent my request, hope I win. by Warcraft	Mar 10th, 2009 10:31:24 PM
Finger's crossed. I love free shit.
I thought it was good by Maxer	Mar 10th, 2009 10:39:09 PM
Sounded like 80s noir. Or Blade Runner. But I liked the non-original music choices and I've been listening to the original soundtrack too. Most of the songs aren't themes to like, just a background drone that subconsciously injects tension. I thought 'I Love You' and 'Edward Blake - The Comedian' were good though.
Tyler Bates, kind of a hack by Badger23	Mar 11th, 2009 12:08:05 AM
Plagiariser.
WATCHMEN is the greatest by Dingbatty	Mar 11th, 2009 05:13:30 AM
comic book ever written because that's what the blurbs for the collected edition have stated, since the 80's.
"I love you mom" by wcme	Mar 11th, 2009 08:14:17 AM
Was the best track of the score. I have in in my rotation now, along side music from Twin Peaks season 2 cd.
So again, this is to win Dr. Manhattan's giant package, right? by JacksParasites	Mar 11th, 2009 11:54:39 AM
Couldn't resist.
