I could go into the scores and songs that have already racked up awards this awards season. However, I am going to keep this particular entry short. My favorites and who I think the Academy will pick based on previous buzz.
Original Score Nominees
1) Anna Karenina - Dario Marianelli
2) Argo - Alexandre Desplat
3) Life of Pi - Mychael Danna
4) Lincoln - John Williams
5) Skyfall - Thomas Newman
Am I wrong or does Skyfall still rely on some of the traditional 007 riffs? Argo was a great soundtrack but not necessarily the best score. John Williams is John Williams and always a factor.
My Favorite: Anna Karenina
My Oscar Prediction: Life of Pi
Original Song Nominees
1) "Before my Time" from Chasing Ice - Music and Lyric by J. Ralph
2) "Everybody Needs a Best Friend" from Ted - Music by Walter Murphy, Lyric by Seth MacFarlane
3) "Pi's Lullaby" from Life of Pi - Music by Mychael Danna, Lyric by Bombay Jayashri
4) "Skyfall" from Skyfall - Music and Lyric by Adele Adkins and Paul Epworth
5) "Suddenly" from Les Miserables - Music by Claude Michael-Schonberg and Lyric by Herbert Kretzmer and Alain Boublil
Why is there a discussion here.
My Favorite: "Skyfall"
My Oscar Prediction: "Skyfall"
