I was gonna start this on Sup Forums but they cant tell a big guy from a small one.
Does Sup Forums agree with me that Ennio Morricone is the greatest film composer of all time?

Angel Harris

Nicholas Clark

Connor Ward

Anthony Martin
Yes
A hack

Brandon Butler
Zimmer composes normie tunes for movies
Morricone composes symphonies for kino
Samuel Parker
Nah zimmer doesn't even come close to the likes of Herrmann, Morricone and Bernie have always been tied at the top for me, all subjective though. I just personally believe that, Herrmann especially has a much more creative use of melody and instrumentation, always alluding to more than just the same repetitive strings that the likes of Zimmer puts out, see Taxi Driver for example, the music makes it all go way deeper
Jose Reyes
>Bernie
Anthony Kelly
Out of the normie composers
John Powell > John Williams > Hanz Zimmer > Alan Silvestri > John Murphy > James Horner (cos he's dead)
If Horner was alive I'd put him between Powell and Williams.
John Bennett
Poledouris is underrated and i'm sad he never got to do more epic scores and instead worked for shitty seagal flicks.
Easton Davis
who is Thomas Newman?
Noah Allen
Morricone is the Zimmer of spaghetti Westerns.
Oliver Green
he hasn't won an emmy, oscar, tony, grammy, and a fucking pulitzer for nothing
avant-teens and summer Sup Forums arguing over morricone and zimmer lol
Ayden Ramirez

Liam Wood
Am i too modern and intellectual for you plebs?
Christopher Green
This. John Powell's scores are more memorable than any of the normie composers bar maybe John Williams and John Williams has golden age Spielberg armour fortifying his work.

If anybody here actually thinks that Hans Zimmer or John Williams are better composers then they need to fuck off with their normie shit, no joke.

sorry but this is generic as fuck
Dominic Price
Still less generic than Zimmer.
Julian Wright
Zimmer has a lot of good movies under his belt, his scores are good enough to enhance any project he's working on (making him a great composer for film)
but, they stand less on their own.

Morricone is one of the best, but I'll just take this opportunity to post some cool 70's soundtrack music
David Shire - The Taking of Pelham One Two Three youtube.com
Michael Small - Klute youtube.com
Jerry Goldsmith - Chinatown youtube.com
Krzysztof Penderecki - Polymorphia from The Exorcist youtube.com
Nathan Rodriguez
Morricone is ok. He was working with what he had, which often wasn't much. Guitar, whistling, etc. very cheap things he could do himself in the studio.
Bernard Herrmann and Jerry Goldsmith are more our shit. Lalo Schifrin too
Brody Johnson
watch op's video, its clearly not just guitar and whistling.
Anthony Bennett
John Carpenter.
Landon Butler
>Everybody ignoring this post
Watch more movies than the Dollars trilogy you plebs.
Daniel Garcia
Man, Morricone is great but I wish more people knew about Alessandroni
Joseph Cooper
Yes
Josiah Green
Morricone is so great, his stuff for Danger: Diabolik should be celebrated here youtube.com
Landon Robinson
no shit. I've seen a lot of sergio leone films and heard a lot of morricone scores.
You'd be surprised how often he strips it back to a few instruments though.
Notice how OPs video is the main theme, and likely a specially made version for the concert hall, including soloist and choir. The actual score of the film is much more sparse, often as little as a single harmonica (obviously for the harmonica guy).
Silence is morricones greatest tool and he uses is often
Nolan Anderson
also worth noting Morricone played trumpet on this youtube.com
Sebastian Turner
This film is one of the greatest things to come out of the Italian sixties
Angel Lopez
Morricone is an absolute legend and a great composer, but he's a small fish compared to for example the Eastern European greats (like Zbigniew Preisner (Dekalog), Zdenek Liska (The Cremator), Mihaly Vig (Werckmeister Harmonies), and Lubos Fiser (Valerie and her Week of Wonders).
Great picks.
Hans Zimmer usually puts out generic bombast and other times he actually tries and creates something beautiful. Still don't care for his bombastic stuff, though.
James Richardson
I like Ifukube despite his recycled themes. Morricone's work is top tier though
James Thompson
Man i watched some old Russian film which had a Shostakovich soundtrack, that was top tier.
