Subject: your Unrepentant Souls
----------------------------
How dare you sprinkle your horrid noxious false music opinions all over the
Internet? Don't you realize that you are diverting people from the one true Way,
the Tao? All the thousands of people who read your page will be damned to
miserable lives of unnatural suffering because of you. Your music reviews deny
the self-evident truth that people are only a small, insignificant part of
nature. And it espouses burnt onion rings, of all heresies! Don't you know how
many artificial chemicals they contain? Damn you to reincarnation as a slime
mold!
[This guy's right. Burnt onion rings are worse than all other unnatural sufferings]

Subject: Batman Beyond
----------------------------
The posted review of Batman Beyond is more venomous than any one single
episode of the show. This guy is obviously aggravated and insecure in
his own existence. I am a musician, my favorite composer is J.S. Bach.
So I could agree on the point that some of the guitar and drum parts are
typically boring, however they are far from "DEMONIC". Lets face
it....if anyone's music could be called "of the devil" then it would be
Bach's or even Paganini. And when compared to evening sit com
soundtracks Batman Beyond's soundtrack is a very nice change. Social,
Political, or Religiously jaded people shouldn't critique art in any
form as their opinions are automatically biased!!!! Batman Beyond is a
refreshing change from the mindless worlds of most everything on T.V.
It challenges the young peoples intellect and encourages them to
consider possibilities, here and now as well as in the future. The
soundtrack at times really enhances this and at other times could use
a little less or more, but even Bach didn't just sit down writing
masterpieces at the beginning. I for one can't wait to see how the show
and the soundtracks evolve. It would even be nice to be a part of teem.
Some constructive criticism instead of vicious slander may be what the
teem needs. Remember , a soundtrack is supposed to capture the mood
of the moment, not appease jaded listeners. Not all moods or moments
are for everyone. Judge the soundtrack of a film by whether or not it
captures and enhances the mood!!! NOT by whether or not it's
your favorite kind of music!!!!!!!! Idiots!!
[Batman Beyond would be more interesting if scored with Bach]

You filthy, unnatural, sexually aberrant freak. Why are you spreading
hairy-faced lies about the Internet? My mother never smiled, and she always
practiced good hygene to prevent moldiness. Furthermore, she is a champion film
music enthusiast, and she told me to tell you that your so-called reviews are as
nauseating as putrescent Limburgher cheese rinds curdling in the gallbladder of a
plague-infested rat. They, unlike her, do not have good hygene. So there.
[And they wonder why so many people are terrified of meeting their potential mother-in-law?]

Subject: filmtracks is a bunch a crap
----------------------------
first of all i'd like to say that filmtracks.com goes way to far trying to
scrutinize, overanalyze, and just basically suck all life out of the music. it's
a watered down review site that is destroying the whole fucking scene. you
should take off your goddamn sweatters, smash your fucking lunchboxes and stop
your crying. everything your trying to do just makes score music more of a
corporate fad and a novilltiey for middle class white teenagers looking to reble
in style with the rest of their so called friends. so cut the act and get on
with your fucking life.

Subject: Strategic partnership in the adult market
----------------------------
Dear Christian,
I am writing to you in regards to establishing a strategic partnership
between companies. I am the President of Bosexual.com, which will be a
new web site dedicated to the needs of young, sexually active professionals
living in the metropolitan Boston area. Our future plans include expansion
throughout major cities in the United States.
We are in the process of currently implementing the first phase of our
business plan, which is providing the general entertainment content of
the website, which is in essence similar to information you obtain in a
variety of adult magazines. We have an in-house staff of writers and
photographers, but have had problems obtaining personnel with experience
in the film industry. What we would like to do for the movie and music
section of the website is incorporate your soundtrack content into our
site. This would give you a broader outreach in terms of viewership in
the adult entertainment industry and allow you to market and sell any
products or advertisement to a larger audience. For providing you with this
opportunity, we would just be looking for good content for our adult viewers
interested in the latest movie and music releases. In the next few weeks
we will be expanding the site dramatically, and we expect to generate
significant interest throughout the Boston area.
If you are interested in working together feel free to contact me. You
can reach me via e-mail at xxxxxxxx@bosexual.com or by phone at
617.xxx.xxxx. I am looking forward to hearing from you. Please, feel free
to ask any questions or make any suggestions.
Sincerely,
xxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxx

Subject: Your Batman Beyond Review
----------------------------
[This guy had waaaay too much time on his hands...]
I just read your review of Batman Beyond and I must say,
You're an idiot.
No really, you're just a plain dumb ass. It's idiots like you who should be
working for stupid companies like hard copy and access hollywood. Lame
critic assholes who have nothing better to do than put down people's work
when they themselves are just ignorant dickheads who don't have any talent
and couldn't compose a single thing.
"It is because of soundtracks like this that orchestral film score
enthusiasts wake up in cold sweats in the middle of the night, fearing the
future existence of a decent scoring genre of music"
The orchestral filmscore enthusiasts I can understand, because that is the
paticular genre they focus and enjoy. However the genre you're talking about
isn't even close to orchestral! That's like if some metal head webpage were
to review a country album or a rap album, or *gasp* and ORCHESTRAL album!
It's ridiculous and you can't say the entire genre is crap simply because
you don't like it. That's called ignorance. Not criticism.
"Not only is the music from Batman Beyond a sure way of obtaining a
headache, but it has the power of perversion working for it as well"
Funny, I didn't get a head ache listening to it, I rather enjoyed it. And
just so you know I enjoy various orchestral acts as well. Perversion? Funny,
I noticed you never once elaborated on that topic. Know why? Because you're
full of shit. There's not one piece of evidence on the soundtrack that
implies "Perversion." I don't hear any women moaning or any sexually
orientated themes. This is a soundtrack for a CARTOON SHOW. As in for a
YOUNG GENERATION. I highly doubt Warner Bros would allow any form of
"perversion" on a soundtrack.
"ever before have I heard a score --and I've heard thousands-- with such a
vicious and mean-spirited personality."
There isn't even any lyrics in the damn soundtrack! How can you honestly say
"mean-spritied personality"? It's a fucking instrumental theme track you
stupid cunt. Fucking idiot review whores like you don't even know what the
fuck you're talking about.
"Even beyond its capacity for easily disturbing everyone within a 300 foot
radius of your stereo"
Hey dick head, the whole world isn't orchestral score enthusiasts. In fact
they're a dying breed. Get over it. Funny the only reaction I got from
playing it within the 300 FOOT RADIUS (because we all know it's horrible
affects begin to disipate after the given distance) was from myself from
thinking "Hey this is pretty good" and a friend also displaying his
approval. And once again, we're not metal head-put-down
everything-except-the stuff-we-like (Sound fammilar?) Ignorant assholes, we
also enjoy various orchestral acts and other types of genres. Which SOME
people can't seem to accept.
"What's more unsettling?... the music?... or those who can actually sit and
obtain pleasure from listening to it?"
Once again, pure ignorance. You not only insult the soundtrack which is your
given right as a highly acclaimed and ever so godly like critic but you
insult the audiences that would approve of such a soundtrack and yet would
also listen to scores you would approve of. Pure fucking ignorance.
"teenage Batman who, as can be easily interpreted through the music, has a
multitude of serious psychological troubles"
If you even watched the show you'd see that the character went home to his
house only to stumble upon the scene of his father's murder. But hey it's ok
we can all laugh and say hey that's the kinda music fucked up kids like him
listen to!" Cause were "highly acclaimed ochestral theme critics"!
"Nonetheless, the series has become a hit with a very loyal and focused
group of (perhaps equally troubled) youngsters in the U.S."
It's huge on the WBKids network, wow,now you've sunken even lower, not only
do you put down the soundtrack, but you put down a wide audience of young
children with your wonderful gift of criticism. And we all know EVERY single
kid who watches the show is a victim of having their father murdered.
"The music is aimed directly at that crowd."
Once again...
"the soundtrack for Batman Beyond contains a wealth of bizarre and sharply
metallic samples of bass, drums, distorted vocals, and overwhelming
guitars."
THEN WHY WOULD YOU REVIEW IT AT AN ORCHESTRAL SCORE SITE???? WHY ARENT YOU
REVIEWING NATURAL BORN KILLERS AND CHARLIES ANGELS AND ANYTHING ELSE WITH
MUSIC THAT ISNT ORCHESTRAL HUH???? Oh I'm sorry, the little critic can't
even stick to his own genre anymore. He just wants an excuse to use his
"Frisbee" rating. By the way your mortal kombat review sucked as well. And I
didn't even like the soundtrack.
"but how can they be proud of producing such demonic crap as this?"
By viewing the success of the show and realizing it's a smash hit and
invigorating the batman genre.
"no guitar that doesn't crash"
I don't recall any guitars "Crashing"
"no drum sample that doesn't pound"
What are they supposed to do then? Just remain silent? They're there for a
reason idiot. Even a music critic like you should know that.
"There are no redeeming qualities to this music at all"
In the eyes of an orchestral film critic, and only to those who listen
exclusively to such music. However unlike you I have learned to respect all
shapes and forms of music.
"Devoid of any positive character, music like the score for Batman Beyond is
the kind that could easily inspire the next fatal high school shooting. I'm
dead serious."
THAT is the line that inspired me to write this email. That is by far the
most pathetic thing I have ever heard in ANY critic. That is not only a
completely ridiculous and ignorant thing to say, but very sick. How can you
honestly say that it would inspire a fatal high school shooting? I listen to
it and I don't feel any urges to kill anyone at my highschool. (Although I
do have an urge to kill a paticular orchestral score critic) And please, for
the sake of humour, provide one shred of evidence that even remotely shows
inspiration of high school massacre. Perhaps some of the anger driven energy
in some of the tracks but even orchestral scores have tracks done for angry
and energetic parts of the film. And I certainly doubt that would inspire
any high school shooting. I am willing to put a generous amount of money on
the line that would prove you're one of the idiots who blamed the columbine
massacre on artists like Marilyn Manson and KMFDM. Marilyn Manson has themes
which to most would suggest death and perhaps it is only human nature to
percieve it as this. But a soundtrack for a children's cartoon show? One
that has no lyrics, not one single word. Do the guitars and electronics
display some type of encoded message that properly played read: "KILL PEOPLE
AT YOUR SCHOOL BECAUSE THIS KIND OF MUSIC IS EXCLUSIVELY FOR THOSE WHO DO
SO"
"This soundtrack is court evidence waiting to happen."
I am also willing to put even MORE money on the line to see ANY judge who
wouldn't look at this and laugh at the stupid school's lawyers using this as
evidence and your review to support it. There is by FAR worse violent themed
soundtracks that contain actual lyrics suggesting it, not just the energy
given off by such. And once again, I imagine an orchestral score of an
energetic theme could even inspire such violence. And if it does, I'd say
the person acting in such a manner is probably about as ridiculous as you.
If music inspires you to do something violent, then something is wrong with
YOU. Not the music. Same thing with video games, same thing with movies,
same thing with tv, same thing with books. It's merely an excuse for bad
parenting and a system that doesn't work.
"Come on, are you guys really proud of providing such an inspiring
masterpiece for the world to enjoy?"
I for one am.
"I consider myself a very mellow person, yet this soundtrack even put me
into a bad mood!"
You must be very sheltered. Watch one day of MTV and I guarantee you'll be
crying. I highly doubt you're "mellow" if you grow concerned that a simple
cd will inspire death and violence.
"Harmful to the ears and the soul, Batman Beyond is the least respectable
soundtrack album of 1999 so far."
I didn't ecounter any pain to my hearing or my soul when listening to this.
As a critic you don't have the right to declare it as the WORST soundtrack
of 1999. For one it's a kid's show, so nobody that would be interested in
your works would be even remotely interested. Are you going to critique
barney and seseme street as well?
"At a basic level, this music functions very much like Mortal Kombat music."
Once again, I question why you would review such a cd on a page that
consists exclusively of orchestral theme music. Are you going to review the
matrix cd (not the orchestral score) and criticize it's hard rock bands and
say that it inspires death and high school shootings? After all Marilyn
Manson is on the cd and we all know how good he is for lame critics like you
to blame because it's become a cliche.
"Both are very fine tuned for a specific (brainwashed) audience."
HEY KIDS! WHATS THE WORD AGAIN? I! G! N! O! R! A! N! C! E! WHAZZAT SPELL?!
IGNORANCE!!!!
"Both attempted to achieve new innovation in a massively popular genre of
darkness and despair for teenage boys"
How can you speak for a massively popular genre of darkness and despair if
you dont even have any part of it? In fact the scores you review go with
films that are darker and scarier than either of these films. Look at
Gladiator. TONS of killing and death in that movie, I fail to see how you
can look at a movie and not be disturbed in the slightest yet the soundtrack
really disturbs you and brings concern to the future of our education system
and overall self esteem levels of teenage boys. Once again, it's not
soundtracks (as hard as it may seem to believe) that's making teenagers kill
nowadays, it's ignorance. Ignorance from their fellow students and parents,
the anger that builds up, the other forms in which it escalates, and
finally, the easy access to guns. Funny after reading your review I guess we
can throw in soundtracks to little kids shows.
" To perhaps best sum it up, this score makes the electronic Transformers
music from the 1980s seem like a classical masterpiece sent from Heaven."
Although the 80s metal tracks didn't appeal to me (notice how i don't put
it, the genre, and the people that listen to it down???) I rather enjoyed
the electronic tracks. And it also makes me wonder what you have against
electronic music? Are you going to give me the dumb reasons typical ignorant
metal heads give me? Are you going to say it's not real sound and it takes
no talent to compose?
"As for Batman Beyond, keep the jewel case as a spare"
Why would you purchase it in the first place if you don't like it? Once
again I question why you criticize a genre that you don't even focus upon.
It's silly and I imagine the people that come to your site don't care for
it. Why would they want to read about bad cds? Wouldn't they want your site
to be composed entirely of cds that might appeal to them?
"Not recommended listening while driving in metropolitan areas."
Have you ever walked in a metropolitan area? 90% of all car stereos will be
playing hard rock, rap, electronic and various other forms of pop music. Not
orchestral theme scores. Once again, not that there's anything wrong with
the genre, but you for one cannot speak for an entire metropolitan area.
Your skills as a critic have truly diminished.
"FRISBEE"
Also useful for decapitating useless orchestral theme critics. And I say
that out of pure disgust of your review, not because the soundtrack made me
do it and I'm a depressed and dark and despairing teenaged boy who's father
was slain by the hands of another fictuous cartoon character. But hey, next
time a high school shooting does happen, we can all make reference to this
soundtrack and point away from the real flaws of our eduction system and
further add more to the problem! And greatly acclaimed critics like you will
benefit!
Anyways, I'm dying to hear from you. I hope I didn't scare you too much. Now
if you'll excuse me I'm going to go blast this paticular soundtrack in my
car stereo in a metropolitan area and keep you in the back of my head and
laugh. Oh and excuse me, also conjure up a plan for a high school massacre
in my head. Because we all know you were DEAD SERIOUS about this soundtrack
winding up as COURTROOM EVIDENCE.
Cya later, try to lay off the ignorance, and soundtracks that dont even come
remotely close to the genre your site focusses on.

next to the toilet. After all, if the toilet is a religious icon, we can't go

Subject: You are SATAN! I will pray for you!
----------------------------
My name is xxxxxxxxx and I represent the Lord Jesus Christ. "Filmtracks Modern
Soundtrack Reviews" is teaching the works of the devil. Jesus was the most
sensible, patient, caring, sound-minded man of all time. I am so mad that you
don't know Jesus at all! He is my whole life, and it hurts me to see you
disgrace him by pretending to know his beverage choice. Like Jesus, I am NOT
crazy. I know Jesus personally, and he is my FATHER. He is the most gentle
spirit of all time. I would have loved to live in his time and had him show me
his love, devotion, and the true friendship that he had to offer. None of us
hold even a tiny candle to his most intelligent teachings. He is like the God
(His own Father)....you know the God who made all of Heaven and earth? His name
is Jehovah, and he made Jesus, so if God was proud of his own made, shouldn't we
be also? Of course the devil has you teaching his stupid stuff. Get wise, or go
with the traitor of all life. SATAN! I will pray this tonight. That you will get
real, or live what you are teaching this very night! And that you will know
where the source is coming from. I am hardly crazy.......I am lovingly, God's
wife!
Don't you dare talk about my only Father that way! Jesus was the most whole and
sound-minded in the his entire life! You call us crazy for loving a father who
was and is every sense of the word, real, and not a hypocrite! Quit lying on
him! He is my father. I love Jesus! I love Jesus! I love Jesus! Read the bible
correctly. I understand every word and action that Jesus did. God, Jesus, and
their followers ARE a peculiar people. Read about all of the things that God did
in the old testament. They were not always understandable, but we are unlike
God, and do not have his mind. He and Jesus have all of their own reasons for
their peculiar teachings. But I would never doubt any of it, nor call them
hypocritical in any way! I love them, and very happy to be a part of their
family. Instead of cutting his people down, reading the bible with your own
simple minds, and hurting my Father, ask the one you are cutting down for wisdom
of his ways. Geez, you idiots make me mad, and I am tired of being the laughing
stock of the realness of God, and laughed at for my tremendous love and faith in
the Christ! I laugh at your idiocy!
One more thing! I am so very tired of feeling like the foolish for loving a man
named Jesus. You weirdo's all think we are weird for even talking about or
serving Jesus. He is very real! So let me let you all feel a little weird for
once. God is not weird, we (Jesus freaks) are not weird, we are smart, and
desire to live in harmony, peace, and sinless in our next life! There is nothing
wrong with us, there is most definately something wrong with you! I hate you
with a Godly hatred, and pray all of you idiots would find better things to do
than corrupt others and your own minds with the deceits of your own minds. Quit
cutting us Christians, and God down. I am getting seriously tired of it! He will
be the one to own up to in the last days, so get wise, will you!

I've just read your shocking opinion about the Harry Potter's score, and it's
not an opinion at all. You are a Lard ass who complains about greenpeace

I was just wondering when you are going to debut the poignant, emotionally

critique perfectly good filmscores AS IF YOU WERE MAHLER HIMSELF. Where is
your brilliant filmscore that people are buying CD's of all over the world
and is being critically acclaimed? Its okay to give something a good
review, just because you are a critc does not mean you have to be critical
about things that are fine.

Mr. Clemmensen,
I am an elementary music teacher in a small Texas town. I am trying to prepare
an internet unit for my students on movie soundtracks. Your webpage would be an
invaluable resource for my classes. However, your indecent and profane FauxPas
page that contains many unhappy words would keep me from being able to use it.
I don't think my students' parents would. I'm hoping I can plead with you to
remove the FauxPas page (even temporarily) from your site. There isn't another
page on the web that is as extensive as yours. Your site leaves
www.MovieMusic.com and www.Soundtrack.net in the dust. It would be so wonderful
if my student's could use this page to better appreciate the wonderful people
who compose and arrange and perform the music for their favorite movies. Just
please, for the sake of our students and our future, remove the FauxPas page.
Sincerely,
[Remove the Faux Pas Page? Never! Inconceivable!]

----------------------------
If you are so insistent that God does not exist, then why do use your "precious"
Filmtracks.com trying to disprove Him. Why is it of importance to you if others
do not agee with your opinions? Are you trying to convince others that God does
not exist or are you trying to convince yourself? Perhaps the reason you try so
hard to convince others of God's nonexistence is so you won't be all alone on
the trip to Hell. It's kind of ironic that God gave you the air you breathe so
you can use it to speak against Him. Your words are filled with hatred and anger
which is a derivative of fear. Hitler's intense hatred and anger toward the Jews
was out of the fear that they would prevent his quest for world domination. What
are you afraid of? Has someone convinced you that you are not loved by God? Does
your fear of not going to Heaven manifest itself in the form of anger hidden in
soundtrack reviews? Please Mr. Clemmensen, reconsider your views. Jesus Christ
died for ALL of our sins!! Repent Mr. Clemmensen. I am not sending you this

Let me ask you this... Which is worse:
A. You are forced to bitch and complain because your film music website isn't
making the same kind of money that it used to.
B. You start bleeding during bowel movements. You go to the doctor and get
poked, prodded, X-ray'd, biopsied, etc. 3 days later you get a call for a
consultation. The doctor informs you that you have advanced colon cancer at 45
years old. You have anywhere from 6 months to 5 years left to live. He tells
you it's time to get your house in order because you'll be checking out soon.

Subject: Fakes...
----------------------------
To: Filmtracks.com, potential ally
From: Callorhynchidae Amizilis
There is something extremely wrong with every single person in this world. They
seem to be part of a pointless simulation.
"The Matrix" has portrayed this idea somewhat, yet we watch it and go back to
our daily lives. Yet in this very life, underneath the seeming diversity in
people's opinions, values, talents, and interests, there is something that makes
everyone the same. It is as though this planet is populated only by mindless
fakes, objects that provide the appearance of intellect on the surface but are
based on only mechanical reflexes and primitive thought patterns.
I don't really care if anything I say has been said before, if it was portrayed
in movies, in books, or in the lyrics of some useless song. With 6 billion
people covering the globe at any given time, thousands and thousands of years of
written literature, probability dictates almost any combination of words has
occurred numerous times. Yet there is clear evidence there was no action, so
those words, just like the people who spoke them, must have been just more
fakes. I am forced to use this language (also created by the fakes) because
there is no alternative, so everything I write here could be misunderstood to
make me sound like one of them, but it will be the action that I take and the
dedication that will separate me from them.
In my estimation the fakes that occupy this planet don't make up 99%, but more
like 99.9999999% of the population. I know this because I've searched, and in my
search have so far only found one true ally (I have found him via the internet
as well). But even with those numbers we would not give up because there is no
logic in giving up.
The people on this planet are all fakes because the societies have made them
this way. Ideas that populate people's minds have no logic or purpose. Concepts
such as religion, god, morality, individualism, freedom, identity, happiness,
love and billions of others are all just memes. Like parasites they infect the
minds and spread from one person to the next. They have no point or purpose;
they exist without any logical basis or foundation. The fakes are completely
controlled by them, and they will never see beyond them. To not be controlled by
them one must do more then just realize that they exist. One must resist any
ideas that have no point, endlessly question, and never accept imperfection or
compromise in any answer.
We (myself and my ally) are different though. While we have had the limitation
of existing only in these societies, something has made it possible for us to
resist being indoctrinated into becoming one of those fakes. We have no
arbitrary wants, needs, desires, sexual inclinations or preferences.
If this world continues to exist the way it is then nothing in it will ever have
a point. It will always be just a product of random evolution, one with no
importance or relevance. The only logical goal is to dedicate our lives to
increasing our numbers, those that aren't fakes, so that in thousands of years
our numbers may be such that the fakes would no longer be a threat to progress.
Those that join us must see every other person occupying this planet as the
enemy, and us as their only allies. Like us they must have dedication only to
taking the most logical action, and to nothing else. To tell you more about us,
we've posted some personal information about ourselves on a website. You'll also
find past responses to us on that webpage. Obviously anyone reading this email
is most likely just another fake. Do not simply reply to this email, if you do
your message will almost certainly be ignored. If you do wish to communicate,
first demonstrate your interest by taking the effort to find us online, one of
the ways to do that is described below.
Use a major search engine to search for every combination of any two words from
the list below. The order of the words shouldn't matter as long as you do not
search for them in quotes, but generally it should be clear what words can go
together and in what order. Also when you pick the right combination you
shouldn't need to look at more then the first matches.
There are actually at least 7 (or more) different combinations and websites you
can find by searching this list. The one you should contact will clearly say it
is the 'communication' page and will have three forms to fill out. Mention what
sites you did find, the more effort it seems you took the more likely we would
believe in your dedication.
There is no trick to this and this isn't meant to be quick, it should, however,
be fairly clear if/when you find the right site. The following search engines
were verified by us, please use any of them as other search engines may simply
not list us correctly: Yahoo, Google, InfoSeek, Lycos, MSN, LookSmart, HotBot,
InfoSpace, Ask.com, AllTheWeb, Teoma, WebCrawler, AltaVista, AOL Search,
Netscape Search, Dogpile.
