Sony Classical to Release John Williams’ ‘Lincoln’ Soundtrack

Say hello to this year academy nominee!
Let’s see if it will be earned. I will not forgive the Academy that they nominated 2 (!!!) of John’s scores last year (Tintin and War Horse were really dull and boring in my opinion, and I also think that they would not be nominated if they were been composed by someone else), but for example phenomenal and original Patrick Doyle’s score for Rise of The Planet of The Apes was not recognized at all.
That was fast. The score will not be released until a couple of months, there’s only a poster and a still of the movie with no trailer, and the CD has been announced.
What? There are two trailers around! And has been since last month!
He wrote this in August, genius.
FYI, the CD isn’t announced “until a couple of months” but in less then a month!
