Aye Taw, who wants to be that old? Any takers?

An archery contest? Followed by a joust and then on-line Freelancer battle. Shouts "Get on with it!" to the announcer. <img src=smilies/icon_smile.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle>

I came because I wanted help with the Hovis Race. However, I have now completed FL and have stuck around so I can help others and have mad discussions with complete strangers, one of whom I may well of met (Gromit). Besides which, it´s a free country (all involved), so I cannot be stopped... hahahahahaha (except by mods - oh damn)

@Stinger Space Invaders - Hmm.. How dare you bring that up. I lost a whole summer to that game. Asteroids (no brainer classic) - I agree Donkey Kong - Hated it hated it hated it, it seemed pointless to me. Pitfall - I only vaguely remember that!!

I think it is time... to cheer up Taw, or are you proud of your short life expectancy?

Esquilax, how tall are you? Yes, Clare had something, but it was hard to put your finger on what exactly. Besides, she was the first, and the first is usually the benchmark by which all successors are measured, just look at James Bond (I´d prefer to LOOK at Chloe though). <img src=smilies/icon_smile_big.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle>

For a soundtrack to be successful you must be able to hum it aloud - that´s all I´m saying, and many of John Williams and Jerry Goldsmith´s work is. As for genres, it is almost impossible to categorise into 20 genres, mainly because no-one will agree on what genre a particular song belongs in. On top of that, when people can´t decide they called it after the decade it was released. Anyway, if you take Rock as a genre, there are at least 20 possible sub-genres which include; Heavy Metal, Thrash Metal, Death Metal, Nu Metal, Soft Rock, Hard Rock, Classic Rock, Ska (yes Ska), Indie, PritPop, Grunge, Black Metal, Punk Rock, Glam Rock, Gothic Rock, Rock, Rock ´n´ Roll, Rap Rock, Rap Metal, New Age Rock, Progressive Rock, Alternative Rock, Christian Rock.... need I go on? - thought not!!! You can do this with most genres, from Electronic to Pop, even classical to a certain extent (with Operatic, Choral etc.). The problem will always be classification, because artists (and the non-manufactured are to blame here) want to believe they are innovaators, and the easiest way is to "create" your own genre - and very few artists can really lay claim to this accolade.

"Scarves for sale, get your FF Scaves here, get your Esquilax Scarves here. £500 a ticket to watch the fight to the.... well end." *Thwacks* himself for impertenence and stupidity and asks RILMS if that seat is taken!! <img src=smilies/icon_smile_big.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle> Oh, how much for advertising space? <img src=smilies/icon_smile_big.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle> <img src=smilies/icon_smile_wink.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle> <img src=smilies/icon_smile.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle> Edited by - Vektrix on 1/10/2004 3:27:31 AM

Hey Grom - say it isn´t so - we probably have met, how scary????????????????? <img src=smilies/icon_smile_question.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle> Hmmm.. So you destroyed that door? I always wandered why there wasn´t one, mind you image if there was, wouldn´t that be fun? Imaagine how many spilled pints that would cause. As for Jay - I don´t recall a lad called Jay, the bloke I remember had short mousey hair and played Guitar in "Stonehenge" most nights whilst getting pissed. This was annoying as I stayed in Kilburn Lodge - luckily a few mates stayed in Parwich <img src=smilies/icon_smile.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle> I´m surprised I didn´t leave my mark on Lonsdale bar - like an indentation of a pool cue on a wall. <img src=smilies/icon_smile_big.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle>

Ah RILMS I have heard of said footage. Never bothered downloading it as Paris Hilton is not top of my priority list - not that keen on her to be honest!!! "Was what Vetrix?" - Freighter Fighter And you are referring to what? <img src=smilies/icon_smile_question.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle>

Griffon, you are really beginning to worry me!!!! A base on the moon? When can I book my holiday??? Before they do that, why don´t they sort this planet out first? <img src=smilies/icon_smile_wink.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle>

Anyone here ever played any of the Repton series of games? Some weird character collecting diamonds!
-
Is he? I´ll have to watch the credits on the DVD again sometime!!! Still a good score though!
-
Taw, he didn´t do PotC, I was just mentioning it as a score that I like!!!! Klaus Badelt di that one. I still like a lot of the stuff John Williams did - but my fave is Jerry Goldsmith on Planet of the Apes, it is quite spooky!!
-
I tend not to be too interested in whole score - I like lots of the Main Themes. I do not actually own any complete scores, just a John Williams CD. S&M is an insane musical journey, having said that, everyone should at leats listen to it. I own all of Metallica´s albums (studio anyway), the same for Korn and Megadeth!!!! Film Scores for me peaked in the mid-to late 70´s and early 80´s - although the Pirates of the Carribean and Lord of the Rings scores are outstanding.
-
Spectre, if you ask me, absolutely every thread that is more than a day old gets quite ****ed up quite quickly - and since I´ve started posting I´m not entirely blameless. Original subject was about those shows, so let´s say my fave was StTW! <img src=smilies/icon_smile_big.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle> <img src=smilies/icon_smile_big.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle> <img src=smilies/icon_smile_big.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle>
