Getting some middling reviews and warnings of "It's a Nolan Film". After Dunkirk, I cant give him the benefit of the doubt (Interstellar and Memento are GOAT tier movies). [Reply]

Inception and the Batman trilogy too.
I really enjoyed Dunkirk. I can see how a lot of people may not have, though.
I wish someone would make a quality WW2 aerial combat movie. Nolan killed it with those scenes. It felt like I was in the damn airplane watching the movie in the theater. [Reply]

The Prestige is also very good. I’m not about to doubt the quality of this one based on any reviews. [Reply]

Though I wouldn't want it for every single film, there is something inspiring and respectable in how The structure of the movie is metaphorical of the subject of the movie, and is presented in the movie from the very beginning.

Trailer Music is a huge, huge part of the film and TV business.
Prior to 2000, trailers generally consisted of music in a studio's library, which is why you'd hear music from Field of Dreams or some other previously released movie's score in trailers.
But that all changed in the new millennium as digital audio, with instant editing and samplers that could handle huge orchestral libraries that became available through faster computer CPU's, more RAM and larger hard drives. Now, it's all about the Brass Swells and huge percussive BOOMS! and so on.
Generally speaking, a big budget feature film's trailer will use multiple tracks from multiple Trailer Libraries to create the trailer, with the music chosen by the specific editor of the trailer.
It's a very "crowded" genre which is why I've avoided that aspect of composing but I did have the John Carter of Mars trailer on Starz! and Encore that ran for nearly a full year back in 2012. [Reply]
