John Williams VS James Horner

And let there be no talk of punks such as Michael Mann, Aaron Zigman, Alan Silvestri, Hans Zimmer or Rachel Portman - all Vangelis, Ennio Morricone or Nino Rota wannabees - during this no-holds-barred confrontation here!

All we will allow is an honorable mention to John Debney for having put music to the most impressive film of the past century - better than anything Zimmer ever scored, that is for damn sure! But that is another story...

Onwards with the hostilities!

Who is the BEST film composer, of a number of films now: Williams or Horner?

JOHN WILLIAMS


Or

JAMES HORNER



It is, basically, a free-for-all pitting Superman, Star Wars and E.T. against Aliens, Braveheart and Avatar!

Who wins?

Hmm...

JOHN WILLIAMS - because he's backed up by the Boston Pops, not by a Canadian adulterous filmmaker who rooted for Vancouver (and, as we all know, Boston defeated Vancouver handily in the 2011 Stanley Cup Finals!)
