A Beautiful Mind. (2001)

Havent seen this film! LOL gonna have to now.

Though this proves a point in a problem I have with Horner, he recycles his stuff WAY to much! I mean it would be okay if it was just a little or he was just starting to, but he has done it his whole career and it kind of bugs me. Though I do like the Avatar soundtrack (though more because it is related to Avatar) a lot.

For a while I didn't enjoy it much when I saw Horner's name in the credits. Ever since Avatar I sort of gained a bit of a respect for him back.

But if you've heard "Braveheart", "Titanic", "A Beautiful Mind", "Legends of the Fall", and "Glory"... and then watch "Bicentennial Man", you'll cry from all the stealing he does from his other music in that movie. It's like he didn't have time to even score the film and just pasted a whole bunch of tunes together with maybe 3 different notes in each cue. That's when I lost all respect for his composing ability for a while. You'll especially notice he practically plagiarized his own main theme from "A Beautiful Mind" and stuck it in the opening credits for BM.

EDIT: Hey! This is my 100th post, and it happens to bash Avatar's composer!
