> I fully expected you to take Easter off, my hat's off to you!

I went back and forth on whether to keep the every-other-day posting cadence going. Combination of lower-key Easter morning and projecting the subsequent posting schedule sealed the deal.

Nothing in that post was WRITTEN yesterday though. smile

> Kind of like McCreary, you wonder how heavily a composer leans on their team when you have a schedule *this* packed. Also, I have no idea why, but '*nationality* composer picked for tax reasons' is just a funny thing to me!

Happens more than you think - requirements for a European composer drove the hire of Roque Baños for In the Heart of the Sea, and probably also Fernando Velázquez for Hercules.

AND it's absolutely why everyone still acts like the music in Fast & Furious 6 was written by Lucas Vidal.

> I'd heard great things about this, but not heard. Sounds right up my alley! (Balfe needs more animated flicks.)

> And one last 'not heard' to close us out. Heard excellent things about it, and your effusive five-star rating made me wanna seek it out!

I'm genuinely surprised a person exists who hasn't heard either of the aforementioned works - or at least a person active on a film score forum lol.

I'm higher on The King's Man than most others are. Funny enough, all of the Kingsmen scores jumped a half-star as part of this rundown.
