Hmm...

Now I'm trying to remember if any of Hans Zimmer's music appears on the "Songs from..." CD of "The Lion King".  -I know that there is a separate Zimmer disc.

Once you click on MUSIC:  All the songs are listed with the performer, and on occasion the composer.  That's what TCB was pointing out to me.  That the discussion on the Score right under those songs implies something I'm sure they didn't intend.

The credits in the film itself are perfectly fine and not even remotely problematic.  The credits on the site don't match the film, the DVD box or the DVD.

Oh, now I just did.  -I had just clicked on "Credits" before.

Well... Even on the Music page, they lists "artists" for the pre-existing music, not composers - except for Verdi.

I guess if you can get them to update the site for Skip, then maybe you could also get Jones & Schmidt and company credit for their contributions too.  -And I'm serious about that.  And I'm sure their publishers would appreciate the mention too.  Not to mention ASCAP and BMI...

DR TCB re: DANCING WITH THE STARS.

It doesn't really matter how the judges vote.  They don't go by ranking, merely by % of totals. So laila got something like 55/60 whereas apolo got something like 58/60.  That means laila got 32.5% of the judges vote (55/169). And apolo got 34.3% (58/169). That's only like 2 points difference.  

So really it only depends really who the public liked more.

Btw, i think joey got 56/169 (the 169 represents the total points given).

Btw2, I actually thought the judges were fair in complaining about laila.  It wasn't about the fact that she didn't do lifts (obviously with her size that wasn't really possible). It was more about the fact that she didn't really do anything outstanding (the way apolo's free dance was outstanding).

I'm curious to see who will win.


The judges said nothing about her not doing anything outstanding or about lifts.  All three of them complained because she didn't do something slow and sexy, which they all thought was her strong suit.  If that is what they wanted to see her do, then they should have chosen that for the judges dance, instead of the pasa double, which is neither slow or sexy.

I do realize how the voting is scored, but what I tried to say was that I was afraid that their criticizm and their votes might influence how the viewers reacted to what I thought was a damn hot number.

In any case...

Would would hope that if someone were to contact Kurt Hoffman regarding the song that Skip wrote, that he would put them in contact with Skip.

*And, if it's any comfort, most of the "up and comers" I work with, always scour the credits for who "who wrote that".  Then they find a way to contact them and get the music.

Something I have noted about some of the teen movies, each decade is different. Each decade has a different spin due to the age of the teens at the time, what was happening in society at the time

For example in REBEL WITH A CAUSE, the struggle was between the young man and his desire to have a girl he could not have. Yet it still subtly aluded to the struggle between those who wanted freedom due to the growing prosperity after the second worldwar and the thrift. I have always seen that movie as a subtle nod to the struggles of equality and discrimination.  

BLACKBOARD JUNGLE of the 1960s is another spin but is more violent in nature and reflects the anger of the young towards Vietnam and the American military's involvement.

Teen movies of the 1980s are in someways a throwback to the same struggles of authority and seeking their way but with a different spin. The 80s versions are more a reflection of the fads and pop culture of that time.

You see the subtle nods mostly in the Outsiders based on the SE Hinton novel. Excellent movie.

I have noted that each decade reflects aspects of the previous decades, sometimes for the better and sometimes for the worse.


BLACKBOARD JUNGLE was released the same year as REBEL WITHOUT A CAUSE - 1955.

It's odd that they opted for different credits on the site than in the film itself, that's all.  No one think Kurt H even wants credit for something he didn't write, though.

And what's up with the "cake Kitty" that he/she cannot cover his/her cake poop?

ROTFLOL!  I had a cat that didn't cover the mess.  That "cake" is really disgusting, wish I hadn't been eating pretzels when I saw it. :P

Anyway, it's a nice little moment in the film, and there's certainly no rancor with any of the parties involved with the film.

*****  HEORES SPOILERS  *****

When Hiro appeared, it was just Peter and Sylar on the square.  Sylar had already sent Matt's bullets back into him and Nikki was called back by Micah to attend to DL.  As it was presented in Issac's comic book, Hiro ran the sword directly into Sylar's chest.

I just found this clip on YouTube that shows Hiro's attack.  I guess he did have the element of surprise, but you would think that Sylar would have been prepared for this having seen the comic.

But Sylar very egotictacially laughed off the possibility of Hiro getting close enough to run him through with the sword.  Ego was his weakness.

Oh... That's right, Martha Stewart's original "recipe" used a pretzel dough:



However, I do remember a follow-up recipe with sugar cookie dough.  However, almonds painted with raspberry jelly "polish" work for the nails in both cases.

SPOILER

Jennifer:  A case could be made for the survival of both Nathan and Peter.  

Getting enough height, Nathan could release Peter and get away from the pending explosion.  Peter could explode, but then regenerate the way everyone figured he would anyway.

Re: The ending of one chapter and the beginning of another -- I LOVED it...here was Hiro fulfilling his destiny and then blinking his way out of slamming into a building.  We at last discover where he went.  We know he has "control" issues...so...here he performed a major heroic act in the kensei tradition, and then he blinks himself back nearly 500 years into the middle of a feudal conflict.  It could not have BEEN more perfect, IMO.  

Parkman's fate is in the hands of the EMTs at this point.

Sylar apparently skulked into the sewer system.  All we saw was a blood trail where his body had been.

I'm more worried about D.L., although it seems he MAY survive.


Did anyone else notice the emblem on the Japanese warlord's banner.  I guess it was the same symbol that pulls all of the heroes together.... i.e. Nicki's tatoo.

I didn't notice it myself, but it was mentioned in EW Online's rather nasty review of last night's final episode.
