Carmina Barfana
February 14th, 2007
The use of ominous choir and tympani in soundtracks must end. (Why always in D minor? Why?) I used to like Orff’s “Carmina Burana”. Now every time I hear “O Fortuna” and the like, I want to pull out my light saber and take on Darth Maul in a battle that determines the fate of the universe itself. Or go charging into battle on a horse through waving grass against legions of CGI enemies and overwhelming odds with my improbably blonde hair flowing behind me and plate mail gleaming as menacing clouds thunder by atop craggy mountain peaks. John Williams should be barred from composing any more soundtracks until he can find a new idea that can be milked ad nauseam.
