Show notes
One day after the 90th Academy Awards, Kristen Romanelli and Christopher Coleman reflect on the sadly lackluster show, which had the lowest viewership in years. While they discuss there feelings about the show and winners in general, they go through the shows use of music and give each category of usage a letter grade! Finally, they give suggestions on how film music could be better integrated into the program making the show a much more entertaning fair ... and, of course, boost its ratings to all-time-highs!Episode Highlights00:11 - Celebrate the Intro03:41 - Why do we watch?06:57 - Overall reaction to the 90th Academy Awards10:11 - Reacting to the Winners16:32 - Grading the Music: Pit Orchestra19:15 - Grading the Music: The Songs21:38 - Grading the Music: Montages24:13 - Grading the Music: In Memoriam26:37 - Grading the Music: Best Score Category29:17 - How they can improve the music39:03 - Celebrate the OutroMusic Selections00:00 - "Bump the E" (Celebrate the Oscars) by Hans Zimmer and Sheila E.38:56 - "Giorgio's new Dancing Shoes" (Celebrate the Oscars) by Hans Zimmer and Giorgio MorodorNotes:https://www.japantimes.co.jp/culture/2018/03/06/entertainment-news/oscar-ratings-plunge-record-low-26-5-million-viewers-nielsen/#.Wp3kypPwaRsFind and Follow:Follow Kristen Romanelli on Twitter - @kbfornowFollow The Soundcast on Twitter - @audiosoundcastFollow Tracksounds on Twitter - @tracksounds Follow Christopher Coleman on Twitter - @ccolemanSpotify: Find our Spotify Companion Playlist here! https://open.spotify.com/user/tracksounds/playlist/4y7SSy7HVfkj5DXKkPhNvMSupport Tracksounds:Most of the soundtracks mentioned in this episode can be found at Amazon.
