STARGATTTTTEEEE! It’s a crazy trip!
You go really far and you don’t need a car
OR EVEN A SHIP!
RIP Mr. Goldsmith. I realize he didn’t actually write the main theme to SG1, but still.
There’s a place in France… and it’s sad.
Servo: “Isn’t that you, Joel?”
Joel: “Nah, that’s the other Joel. There’s two of us.”
RIP
It’s very sad that he lived about twenty years shorter than his father, the legendary Jerry Goldsmith.
Loved his work on Stargate (especially the SG-1 moves, and Atlantis and Universe) and he also contributed to the Star Trek movie First Contact (with his dad) among too many other projects to name. The loss of now two Goldsmiths is a great one for cinematic music.
Very sorry to hear this. Both Goldsmiths were incredible musicians, and it’s sad that neither is with us any longer. RIP
Loved the StarGate franchise!
May he be in Heaven 30 minutes before the turtle-aliens know he’s gone.
First the composer from “Touch of Satan” and now this.
The Day(s) the Music Dies.
RIP, Gentlemen.
Doesn’t that also make him responsible for the music of Robot Holocaust? I thought they used the same music…
