A pretty mediocre film IMO, but has a fantastic score by Clint Mansell.
If a movie doesn't have a memorable soundtrack, does that make the soundtrack bad? Even if it hit the right beats at the right time?
Not so much. That is emo or more specifically-nu metal. 80's hair bands are what inspired the term cock rock because of the groupies that wanted said, body part. Linkin Park, although I'm not a fan, transcends that categorization with very deep, meaningful, lyrics. The cock rock bands only wrote about said body part and how happy they would be to use it.LOL, it's fine. Michael Bay loves some cock rock.

Yeah, I know I'm not a faneditor at THIS forum but I feel the need to defend my third favorite movie. Love everything about it. Love the myriad of edits too. However, you are an excellent editor, DigiModiFicaTion, and certainly have the right to your opinion.The Blade Runner score is the only movie score I've listened through on its own in its entirety multiple times. I think it's perfect. Nothing wrong with your opinion, I'm just surprised to hear someone say that the soundtrack is bad.
Are you inferring that Twin Peaks is bad but the music is good? I don't think you are...but, seriously...are you? I like the point you make about the music being a lead actor. Another obvious one comes to mind...The X-Files.Good question. No, that does not make it bad. Many movies have soundtracks that solidly support the visuals, without being memorable / loved as stand-alone music. These are soundtracks as supporting actors.
The memorable scores can be considered lead actors in their movies. E.g. in "The Piano" (where Nyman's score is arguably the only lead actor) or in "Twin Peaks" (where Badalamenti's score is one of many lead actors).
I read this as a simple side discussion on the notion of a soundtrack being memorable or not, and whether it being not memorable is automatically a bad thing, or intentional and appropriate vs so specific it plays a role in telling the story, regardless of the quality of the movie (or tv show in the case of TPAre you inferring that Twin Peaks is bad but the music is good?
