WTF?

WTF indeed! We stand for Films, Tunes, and Whatever else we feel like (not necessarily in order!) Professor Nonsense heads the 'Whatever' department, posting ramblings ranging from the decrepit, to the offbeat, to the just plain absurd! The mysterious Randor takes helm of the 'Tunes' front, detailing the various melodic messages he gets in earfuls. Weekly recommendations and various musings follow his shadows. Finally, our veteran movie critic, Lt Archie Hicox, commands the 'Film' battlefield, giving war-weathered reviews on flicks the way he sees them. Through the eyes of a well-versed renegade, he stands down for no man! Together we are (W)hatever(T)unes(F)ilms!

Feel free to comment with your ideas, qualms, and responses, or e-mail them to RandorWTF@Hotmail.com!

Soundtrack of a Script: Revived

EDIT: It seems that Youtube really has a lock on the two clips discussed in this post. While the commentary remains true, I'm afraid I cannot show you the actual parts of the movie featured here. Nonetheless we here at WTF recommend renting or purchasing the whole movies, not just for the purposes of this article, but for the enjoyment of the entire story portrayed. As for this post, well... understand what you can and/or check out other entires through the menagerie of tags.

    Long ago, when this blog first stepped into the cesspool of Internet creations, there were many dreams and ideas in terms of content. I guess real life has delayed many recurring articles and editorials, but I've never lost sight of them. Stored away in a little folder, there sits idle a dossier of everything that never was. Poll ideas, lost features like Up Top, ones without a follow-through, such as Music Musings. Then ya got never seen thoughts, including posts detailing Commercial Jingles and Movie Musicals, and finally, the forgotten periodical- the most applicable of which last appeared a tad more than eight months ago: Soundtrack of a Script (SoaS).
    Back then, we were still experimenting with the voice of the blog, but the message has remained stationary. Music, movies, and their intersection. What better crossroads could there be than SoaS, then? For those clueless, this set of articles intended to document those instances in film where the soundtrack exceptionally played into the emotions of the scene. Acrobatic expertise amplifying the impact of both song and screen. I shoot for the unconventional, but nothing says composed scores cannot peek their heads into my writings. In any case, I decided to send up a couple more examples into the mix, and hopefully we can drip some oil onto the gears of this blog for some long needed momentum.
