Ignore the inevitable chill and settle on for this week’s Tavern Talk Thursday. We had the pleasure of chatting with one of the TTRPG's favorite high level storytellers, B. Dave Walters! Check out what he had to share using the link in our bio!
Day 78 of our #Essential125 Film Scores and our next selection from Hans Zimmer comes from Batman vs. Superman: Dawn of Justice. What surprised everyone most about this flick is that it's not Batman or Superman who steals the show – it's Wonder Woman. Gal Gadot made an incredible first impression in the role, helped along by a kick-ass theme composed by Zimmer and DJ Tom Holkenborg (aka Junkie XL) and played to perfection by cellist Tina Guo. Listen to "Is She With You?" here: https://youtu.be/X4tYHRwUEMY

Day 77 of our #Essential125 Film Scores and our next selection from Hans Zimmer comes from The DaVinci Code. "Chevaliers De Sangreal" plays under the ending of the story, where Professor Langdon ends up finding the final resting place of Mary Magdalene. It's a slow build that ends in a beautiful crescendo that sends chills down the spine. Listen to it here: https://youtu.be/CpHkMZxNLV0

Day 76 of our #Essential125 Film Scores and our next selection from Hans Zimmer comes from Man of Steel. Even though it didn't turn out to be the greatest Superman flick, Zimmer still composed some terrific music for it, especially this cue used to highlight actor Michael Shannon's fierce portrayal of General Zod. Listen to "I Will Find Him" here: https://youtu.be/v4nGinuYwYk
“I don’t need you to tell me who I am.” — Wanda Maximoff (WandaVision)
Day 75 of our #Essential125 Film Scores and our next selection from Hans Zimmer comes from one of his earliest collaborations with director Ridley Scott, Thelma and Louise. A departure for Zimmer, the score features much more rock, country and blues-based music to match the flick's southwestern desert locale. Guitarist Pete Haycock adds his talent by playing the beautiful theme in "Thunderbird." Listen to it here: https://youtu.be/dZoKcqGDJZA
Day 74 of our #Essential125 Film Scores and our next selection from Hans Zimmer comes from his Oscar-winning work on The Lion King. The film's music is definitely one of its greatest aspects, and Zimmer's score helped elevate the story from just a kids' animated flick to something much grander and more cinematic. Listen to it here: https://youtu.be/FNBAmsriyY8
Day 73 of our #Essential125 Film Scores and our next selection from Hans Zimmer comes from probably his greatest work, Gladiator. There's not much explanation needed for why it's so great. It just is. Zimmer's collaboration with singer Lisa Gerrard made this score as close to perfect as a score could get. While the end of the movie is the most famous as far as the score goes, it's "Progeny" that sets the stage in the very beginning and sends chills down the spine. Listen to it here: https://youtu.be/U24aQLDdRrU

Day 72 of our #Essential125 Film Scores begins our picks from Hans Zimmer, the undisputed rock star of score composers. One of his most recent works, the score for Dune (part 1) definitely ranks as one of his best, combining a futuristic sound with tribal drums and vocals that are incredibly powerful. Listen to "Gom Jabbar" and remember that 'fear is the mind killer': https://youtu.be/L2o6LNGmLD8
"While The Son brings some dynamite performances, it is ultimately weighed down where it matters the most. This casts a shadow over the narrative and holds back the emotional power a story like this thrives on."Read our review of Florian Zeller's The Son by clicking the link in our bio!

Day 71 of our #Essential125 Film Scores and our last selection from Maurice Jarre comes from his Oscar-winning work on another of master director David Lean's films, 1962's Doctor Zhivago.

Day 70 of our #Essential125 Film Scores and our next selection from Maurice Jarre comes from his Oscar-winning work on one of the greatest films of all time, Lawrence of Arabia.

Day 69 of our #Essential125 Film Scores and our next selection from Maurice Jarre comes from another excellent collaboration with director Peter Weir, 1985's Witness. The use of synths in a story featuring the technology-shunning Amish community is an effective way to underscore the conflict between them and the outsiders who suddenly and violently invade their world. Listen to "Building The Barn" here: https://youtu.be/QvjGyBssupU

For Day 68 of our #Essential125 Film Scores we turn to the music of Maurice Jarre. For two of his best scores, he collaborated with director Peter Weir, who also contributed to the score. 1989's Dead Poets Society was a seminal project for all involved, but Jarre and Weir's anachronistic score was especially haunting and beautiful. Listen to "Keating's Triumph" and say "O Captain my Captain!" https://youtu.be/KdoY6kkhGek
