"I want to clarify a few things about THE BOX score by Win Butler, Regine Chassagne and @OwenPallett. The band is hard at work recording the new Arcade Fire album. They will release the score at some point, when it does not conflict with their album release schedule for their record label."

So it will be released. No need to wonder or worry or decide that it's a bad omen or anything lol.

What about "thoughts" from the other 12 sites that all give "The Box" favorable reviews? Are they all "fanboy" sites as well?

So much for "We'll go in with an open mind". 😉

I didn't say anything about how I saw Richard Kelly…and I definitely didn't call him an "idiot savant" who only "accidentally" made one good movie.

I only said something about "The Box" and the good reviews it's been getting being overlooked on this site lol. Well, I also showed how claiming that his being a producer on "I Hope They Serve Beer In Hell" showed him to be a talented bum was idiotic since he also was a producer on "World's Greatest Dad". I'm commenting on faulty logic used to label him a hack, not on the man himself.

And for the record, a few more blurbs that show "The Box" might not be the obvious dud that "anyone with half a brain" could detect a mile away:

"Tense and unnerving. Donnie Darko has just entered The Twilight Zone." – TOTAL FILM

"Terrifying and disturbing. [The Box is] a mind-blowing chiller packed with smart scares. 4 Stars." – EMPIRE

"It may fall short of Donnie Darko's clever storytelling, but for his third feature film, Kelly plays confidently with suspense and lays down the right hooks at the right time to keep you drawn into his creepy world. 3.5 / 5 stars." – IGN

I question whether or not any of you evey bother to look at Richard Kelly realistically.

Maybe he really is just some kind of idiot savant that just accidentally made a really good movie once on accident.

Here are some other blurbs from reviews of The Box:

"I want to make clear – the atmosphere of the whole thing was terrific. There wasn’t a dull frame anywhere in the film. 4 out of 5 stars"

"With its throbbing rhythm, its gradual creation of agonizing suspense, careful reconstitution of the historical context of the 70s and excessive decorations around NASA, The Box takes its time to creep into the emotions of the viewer…Kelly gave birth to a damn good thriller in which the effect of fascination endures long after the screening."

"Somehow, Kelly has managed to create a film which not only delivers on both a fantastical and human level, but also delivers on the promise of his potential as a filmmaker worth investing in. 4 out of 5 stars"

"In Conclusion: The new Richard Kelly film…is a worthy movie, a sincere, intelligent, remarkably interpreted and implemented picture."

"''The Box'' is a very successful exercise in mood and tone. Win Butler's rambunctious soundtrack combines with a great sense of the mid 1970s to create a sense of menace that will keep you close to the edge of your seat, and though you're never as sure as you want to be of what's going on, the cinematic technique is brilliant.

4/5 stars"

And there are many other reviews out there that speak positively about the movie, all of which are as easy to find as the negative review you chose to promote lol :). I know bashing Richard Kelly may be the sport of the moment for online movie fans, but believe it or not The Box just might end up being a decent flick.

Correct.

2.Is he now one of those directors that people follow because of the music in his films a la Wes Anderson?

Unfortunately, yes.
