Author Topic: Trailer music Brad Miller Administrator Posts: 17775 From: Plano, TX (36.2 miles NW of Rockwall) Registered: May 99 posted 04-01-2004 10:30 PM                     Anyone know what the music at the end of the "Around the World in 80 Days" trailer is? I am talking about the orchestral score, not the rock snip. http://movies.yahoo.com/movies/feature/aroundtheworldin80days.html Normally I'm pretty good at this, but I can't seem to recall this one.  |  IP: Logged Daryl C.

The archive has multiple individual threads regarding this. I simply created one thread that can be dredged back up from time to time.  |  IP: Logged Daryl C. W.

Posts: 10973 From: Lawton, OK, USA Registered: Apr 2001 posted 04-01-2004 11:01 PM                     I recognize that music (if I am identifying the right part in the trailer anyway). The music is from "Dinosaur." James Newton Howard was the composer. I checked my 2-disc "Tarzan" DVD, which has a long version of the "Dinosaur" trailer on disc 1, in DD 5.1 no less.  |  IP: Logged Joe Redifer You need a beating today Posts: 12859 From: Denver, Colorado Registered: May 99 posted 04-02-2004 12:06 AM                        E-mail me the VOB file of that trailer, Bobby! I'm sure Hotmail can handle it. The trailer to that movie was the only good thing about it. I will, in exchange, give you the film version. Pirating rules!  |  IP: Logged Mike Olpin Chop Chop! Posts: 1852 From: Dallas, TX Registered: Jan 2002 posted 04-02-2004 12:35 AM                     Its the theme from Disney's Dinosaur, which was the best part of that movie. EDIT: whoops! I was looking at a cached version of this page, and did not see the replies above. As long as we're on the topic, the trailer also uses music from the Lilo and Stitch score, and the rock snip is Sugar Ray's "Fly". http://www.soundtrack.net/trailers/ is a great resource for finding trailer music, although at this time they don't have a listing for Around the World in 80 Days.  |  IP: Logged Phil Hill I love my cootie bug Posts: 7595 From: Hollywood, CA USA Registered: Mar 2000 posted 04-02-2004 01:08 AM                  I agree Adam and Daryl! How about one titled: "DTS" or "OPTICAL" The title of this thread should be: I'm looking for a fellow "Trailer music" dork who can teach me how to edit this title and... >>> Phil  |  IP: Logged Dick Vaughan Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1032 From: Bradford, West Yorkshire, UK Registered: Jul 2000 posted 04-02-2004 01:21 AM                        So this thread ain't about music that trailer trash listen to?  |  IP: Logged Brian Michael Weidemann Expert cat molester Posts: 944 From: Costa Mesa, CA United States Registered: Feb 2004 posted 04-02-2004 02:39 AM                        One of the most overused movie scores for trailers, in my experience, is the one from Dragonheart. That theme is EVERYWHERE, even the Disney's Young Black Stallion IMAX trailer. I'd be interested to see a tally of how many trailers EVER have used this piece of music. Any other themes that are known to be way OVERUSED? Get Shorty comes to mind. I remember at my first theatre, when I first noticed that trailers rehashed themes, that we had three trailers in a row (accidentally!) that used the exact same orchestral sequence somewhere ... I don't know what it was originally from, but I'd know it if I heard it. Oh, and then a couple months ago I noticed one of our films had three trailers on it that all had Michelle Branch songs, two of them with THE EXACT SAME SONG, back-to-back ... ugh! (If there's an "individual thread" regarding this phenomenon, forgive me. If this is a general thread to be "dredged back up from time to time" , then I figure it's appropriate.)  |  IP: Logged System Notices Forum Watchdog / Soup Nazi Posts: 215 Registered: Apr 2004 posted 04-24-2005 07:25 PM                 It has been 387 days since the last post.  |  IP: Logged Dominic Espinosa Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1172 From: Boulder Creek, CA. Registered: Jan 2004 posted 04-24-2005 07:25 PM                     Okay, I know what music I want but the question is where the deuce do I get it!?! You KNOW no one on any P2P client has it anyway, why do these idiots trade cruddy music? The question is where can I find music by Brand X, Immediate music, E.S. Posthumus, etc.?  |  IP: Logged Bobby Henderson "Ask me about Trajan." Posts: 10973 From: Lawton, OK, USA Registered: Apr 2001 posted 04-24-2005 10:01 PM                     I have lots of movie score music CDs. But I've never had any urge to upload any of them to any P2P sites. Maybe if I had a Mac I might give the idea more serious consideration (but then probably not do it anyway). There's too much risk anymore to fart around with P2P sites like KaZaa. Lots of people get their computer systems hosed with spyware and malware by trying to download music and movies. quote: Brian Michael Weidemann Any other themes that are known to be way OVERUSED? Since this thread got bumped, yes, there are a number of themes that have been horribly overused. I don't know the titles to some of the music passages, but can at least describe a couple. There was a period where lots of thrillers and action movies would grab James Horner's climactic theme from "Aliens" (y'know, the part where the aircraft is climbing upward just in time to avoid the nuke explosion). Randy Edelman's score for the Alan Parker film, "Come See The Paradise" had a passage that was used on a ton of movie trailers throughout the 1990s.  |  IP: Logged Dominic Espinosa Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1172 From: Boulder Creek, CA. Registered: Jan 2004 posted 04-25-2005 04:55 AM                     Indeed, P2P is getting hosed. And by a bunch of idiots who don't understand it and a bunch of dumbass kids who don't care about quality. I'd much prefer to buy CD's of these artists, but I'll take what I can get. Unfortunately last time I looked nobody had any of these artists.  |  IP: Logged
