> The Simpsons Movie (2007) - ***
That Clausen didn't score this is definitely a slight, given his long history with the show (and then how he was replaced was even worse). That aside, I quite like this score. It doesn't stick in my mind exactly, but it's a fun experience that didn't fuck it up. But it's also nothing that Clausen couldn't have done...
> The Bourne Ultimatum (2007) - ***½
I definitely like this a lot more than you did, and I'd put it at four stars, maybe 4.5 if I'm really feeling it (Supremacy being a solid 5 for me). It makes up for its slightly muddier direction with a tone of increased paranoia and downbeat resolve. He might consider this him at his most boring, but no one does this style better than him!

> Bee Movie (2007) - ****
Definitely a hidden gem of a score, and the movie falls in a fun place between so fun because it's stupid and just stupid! Not exactly Antz in its satire, but a fun and absurd romp. I need to revisit the score, but I remember enjoying it in context when I heard it. (Also, my sister refused to even consider ironically enjoying this film, because of them having the honey-gathering bees be all male, in opposition to biology!)
> Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare (2007) - Not heard
> Harry Gregson-Williams & Stephen Barton; orchestrated by Ladd
> McIntosh
You're honestly not missing a whole lot from this one. It's enjoyable enough, but the music is all so bitty, with the longest cues only lasting two minutes tops. Definitely more sonic wallpaper for the "realism" in the game than intended to be a good listening experience apart from it. There's probably a good album to be extracted from it, maybe 30 minutes of gritty action and vaguely heroic atmosphere.
