Loved this cast! Looking forward to more of them, it’s an idea you could riff on for ages – horror movies, action movies, 90s movies, you could focus just on one composer (john williams, john carpenter etc.) for a whole show easily if you’re keeping it to about 5 tracks.
Hope to hear more soon.

we might get to just scores… but soudtracks are easier for the time being. its lovely to get such a lot of positive feedback on this though. it felt kinda hodge podge but it appears to be sucessful.

yay!

Loved it! Some comments:

- I liked you guys talking over the tracks. The immediate response to the tracks and reminiscing made the ‘cast
- Doing themed shows would be a fun show idea
- I think that soundtrack songs work better than scores for the “sing-along” factor
- Although having a show with just scores could work as well

Ack! I forgot Blade Runner too, but I never had a copy of it.

Odd notes —

Questionable end track — I’m sure it was deliberate, but the choice of “Blue Moon” for the end of American Werewolf in London always drove me nuts. As for setting a tone while leaving the theatre, didn’t they use the Ray Parker Jr. song over the credits for Ghostbusters? *That* is a good choice!

On the soundtrack vs. score front, Batman did have both a release of the Danny Elfman score and then the Prince album.

This was fun! Moremoremoremoremore….please?

Glad you liked it Brob. I have been itching to do something like this for ages and having the new headphone setup made it possible.

More coming soon.
