(Note: There is a shot in the movie that is a direct nod to Jurassic Park: The Lost World. Ever notice that?)
Often overlooked score: Dinosaur by James Newton Howard
There is so much to love about the score. It is bombastic with some strong themes. In a lot of ways, it is throwback to strong themes that Jerry Goldsmith and John Williams had back in 80s and 90s. And, now that I listen to score now, it seems to be a blending of Goldsmith and Williams’ styles.
It is a shame that this score was attached to a rather bland film that seems to be a strange remake to Land Before Time. The movie, during production, went through a lot of changes because certain people in charge of the studio demanded the animals talked.
The track below has my favorite themes, which I call the action adventure theme.
