      Especially when it comes to movie soundtracks, which is his specialty. “Your So Cool” is still an absolute favorite of mine.

      Actually strongly disagree. Music can effect emotions, but that’s not the same thing at all.

        Music affecting emotions is not the same thing at all as someone writing music to affect your emotions?

    His problem is that he mails it in for a lot of movies. A lot of his work is pretty uninspired. But he can make a good soundtrack when he wants to.

    As far as film composers who “manipulate emotions” go, I don’t know if I’d use Zimmer as an example. His stuff is fairly boring. Howard Shore can make me feel more “at home” with a composition than I ever felt at home (when listening to Concerning Hobbits).

    I really liked the music from MW2. That distorted bass is tattooed in my brain. Interstellar was pretty good, too. The pipe organ was different.
