His style is so outdated now, it belongs in the 70's/80's. He never really got with the times and showed any versatility.

who do you consider a current top composer for movie scores?

On a scale from one to ten, where one is the lowest and ten the highest, your troll attempt gets a 5.

Let's see how outdated you are, when you're 88 years old...

I'm guessing you're trying to troll here. I'd rather movies be in the style of the 70s or 80s compared to the garbage that gets made today.

Apart from the lame trolling, it always scares me seeing John here trending. How old is he by now? 90? Please stay healthy, pal.... 😯

[–] blue1981 (8198) 5 years ago

He is now 88.

You are speaking here about a genius

I couldn't disagree more and I'd guess your opinion is in the vast minority.
