Ax’s lame movie recos and cool YT picks
-
Same piece, performed by two different orchestras. Beautiful composition, sonorous orchestration. But comparing the two recordings, this is my impression:
The first one is the better orchestra, generally more seasoned musicians, but it sounds like they have not put in enough rehearsal time to tighten things down.
The second one sounds like it has put in more rehearsal time, but it still shows that the orchestra/musicians are not as skilled/seasoned as the first one.
The music deserves the first orchestra's caliber with the second orchestra's rehearsal time.

Sharktopus, China‘s version:
Link to videoThe CGI is actually quite good. Quite often they show the “whole creature” rather than just “parts of creature” as the Western, older versions of this type of movies usually do.
