Thanks Grissom.  Pretty good write up.  I also had a read of the guy's colleague who also shares her recollections of the movie's initial release in a linked page.  It's worth checking that out too.

Johnny Gobs got ripped and took a walk off a roof, alright? No big loss.

A nice reflection of the film. I can't believe it is 20 years old either. Even though I've seen it hundreds of times, the film is so fresh in my mind. It stands up very well.

Now here's a guy who has a great taste in movies! ;D


Very nice, thanks for the link!

Thanks silenig.  The guy's obviously got very good taste.  I know it's not Batman related, but I'm also glad to see the underrated scores for Silverado and the original Taking of Pelham 1,2,3 included in the list. 

Danny Elfman's Batman score is still No.1 though, IMHO.

I love many kinds of film scores as well as composers, and I have Danny Elfman and Batman to "blame" for this :) I always love it when knowledgable score people/writers mention Batman as one of their first loves.
