I thought TNG was a very good series, but after Gene died, the show went downhill. <br /><br />Every subsequent series sucked - IMO. Even the TNG films were like bland later season two-parters.MVPisOnlinenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1249569588037368037.post-5293923373641451732010-09-03T16:02:22.531+02:002010-09-03T16:02:22.531+02:00Music To Watch Toupees Go ByMusic To Watch Toupees Go ByMarcnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1249569588037368037.post-61642514744808749002010-09-03T02:59:43.330+02:002010-09-03T02:59:43.330+02:00Did any of the original Star Trek composers wear t...Did any of the original Star Trek composers wear toupees? maybe that made a difference.Toupular Bellsnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1249569588037368037.post-35607346912721306852010-09-02T23:54:45.302+02:002010-09-02T23:54:45.302+02:00"a marked and genuine fear of decent and dyna..."a marked and genuine fear of decent and dynamic musical compositions has become an industry-wide problem in much big-budget Hollywood product today". <br /><br />Couldn't have put it better myself. Don't watch that many modern movies, but I get the impression there hasn't been anything around in a long time that's even half as striking as older scores like The Magnificent Seven, The Good, The Bad & The Ugly or Blade Runner. These days there seems to be a widespread misidentification of blandness with subtlety.<br /><br />At least the Trek films benefited from the talents of Jerry Goldsmith, and they had the sense to retain the Alexander Courage fanfare and Goldsmith theme for TNG.Unanimousnoreply@blogger.com
