    Danse macabre by Saint-Saëns | Boo!

    Danse macabre by Saint-Saëns | Boo!

    Description
    Well, it’s nearly Halloween 🎃 and there are many works of music that depict the spookiness, darkness and morbidity of this annual tradition. 😱 But one jumps out at me, Danse macabre by Camille Saint-Saëns. Take a minute to get the scoop!

    Fun Fact
    Like all great music, this work was imitated by many over the years. The re-tuning of the violin for the tri-tone interval was used by many composers, with my personal favorites being Béla Bartók’s Contrasts for violin, clarinet, and piano, and James Newton Howard’s chilling score to the 2002 film, Signs. But notable occurrences include Symphonie fantastique by Hector Berlioz, Rhapsody on a Theme of Paganini by Sergei Rachmaninoff, “The Ballad of Sweeney Todd” from Sweeney Todd by Stephen Sondheim, and “Into the Unknown” by Robert Lopez and Kristen Anderson-Lopez from Frozen II. Rachmaninoff actually quoted the “Dies Irae” theme in a dozen of his works.

    Unbreakable & Barbenheimer

    Unbreakable & Barbenheimer

    In this week’s episode of the AIPT Movies podcast, Alex, Tim, and Matt discuss M. Night Shyamalan’s tale of real-life superheroes and comic book mythos, Unbreakable!

    Perfectly balanced horror, tension, and comedy! A wonderful cast that includes Robin Wright, a magnetic Samuel L. Jackson, and Bruce Willis in one of his greatest roles! A fantastic (and occasionally pretty funky) score from James Newton Howard! Graceful camera work and effective use of color that helps define the characters and story! One of Shyamalan’s best movies and one of his best twist endings! All that and more in this movie that helped pave the way for the modern superhero genre, and is secretly about how you can never be happy if you’re not true to yourself!

    In addition, Tim and Alex share their spoiler-free thoughts on Barbie, Oppenheimer, They Cloned Tyrone, and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem!

    Episode 73 | The Hunger Games Series w/ Braden and Sydney

    Episode 73 | The Hunger Games Series w/ Braden and Sydney

    Braden and Sydney are back on the set to watch one of the best book-to-film adaptations in recent history, the Hunger Games series. We explore several avenues including the excellent worldbuilding from Suzanne Collins, specifics on why James Newton Howard's score elevates the series, why we are supposed to hate Gale, starting the President Snow fan club and so much more. The in-depth look at four films is preceded by an erratic news segment that jumps between several topics, including another Last of Us discussion.

No, you’ve found yourself on the Cinemaholics cruise with Jon and Will, as they review Jungle Cruise, the long-awaited adaptation of the Disney theme park ride starring Dwayne Johnson and Emily Blunt.
