Film Music Critics Announce Award Nominations
Jan 29, 2008, 10:48PM
http://www.filmmusicmag.com/news/Film-Music-Critics-Announce-Award-Nominations-302.html
The International Film Music Critics Association announces their 2007 nominees for excellence in scoring for film and other visual media.
Alexandre Desplat leads the nominations with seven, including two for Best Score of 2007: Ang Lee’s romance drama LUST, CAUTION, and the fantasy adventure THE GOLDEN COMPASS. Dario Marianelli, who recently won the Golden Globe for Best Score for ATONEMENT, is nominated for four awards for the Joe Wright-directed World War II drama. Tied with Marianelli with four nominations is Michael Giacchino, who is up for Best Score for the animated film RATATOUILLE, as well as for his nomination in the newly-formed Best Original Score for a Video Game or Interactive Media category for his MEDAL OF HONOR: AIRBORNE score.
Other composers with multiple nominations include John Debney (2), David Shire (2), newcomer Fernando Velázquez (2), Christopher Young (2) Aaron Zigman (2) and Hans Zimmer (2).
Since the focus of the group is international, many films that received nominations have yet to be released in the United States, including Philippe Rombi’s score for François Ozon’s English language film ANGEL; legendary composer Ennio Morricone’s score for Simona Izzo’s romantic comedy TUTTE LE DONNE DELLA MIA VITA (ALL THE WOMEN IN MY LIFE); Joe Hisaishi’s score for the Korean television series TAE WANG SA SHIN GI (THE STORY OF THE GREAT KING AND THE FOUR GODS), and Jane Antonia Cornish’s score for Danish director Nikolaj Arcel’s DE FORTABTE SJÆLES Ø (ISLAND OF LOST SOULS), for which she received a Breakthrough Composer nomination.
The winners will be announced on Friday, 15 February 2008.

Wow. A few comments spring to mind.
I thought Desplat's score for The Golden Compass sounded boring and derivative, and was almost as disappointing as the movie itself.
Razzies aside, this is probably the only nomination that I Know Who Killed Me is going to receive.
I haven't heard any of their track nominations. What strikes me is that they differ so from the ones VIPs have been nominating here at SST. I wonder why that is. |

I didn't realize they did "track" nominations. Hmmm. Cool.
