Well, just take a look at the protagonists of each movie and look at how each develops in their respective film. Of course, in Shaun of the Dead (SPOILER)it's his friend who turns into the zombie rather than Shaun, whereas in District 9 it's Wikus himself who turns into an alien. (END SPOILER) Other than that, yeah, there's the violence and gore, dealing with unpredictable, hence, scary creatures. Sure - there can be some parallels drawn.

http://www.ocremix.org/remix/OCR01793/ The Adventures of Bayou Billy El Lagarto And Contra Bases Loaded (http://www.ocremix.org/remix/OCR00841/) segues very nicely into Metal Man Goes Clubbing (http://www.ocremix.org/remix/OCR00848/) Of course...they're not exactly slow songs...none of the ones I suggested. ...what was the question?

Yeah man - my first encounter with Chrono Trigger, when it was originally released, I didn't have the patience to go through it. I reckon it was practice for Final Fantasy 3(6) which, to date, is the only RPG I've ever completed. Aaaand to stay on-topic...the mounting pressure that comes from being on ball 3, having just exceeded 2,000,000 points in MicroSoft's Space Cadet Pinball.

hoping to avoid n00bia, but Lavos...not just difficult, but irritating. The other day - I think I had just gotten the Epoch - I was winding down but still had some time to kill. I thought I'd try a suicide run on Lavos, just to see how long I could last. So I warped there from the End of Time, and what I thought would be only a 5 minute massacre turned into a 30 minute battle and I was about to run late (to a previous engagement). So now I have no idea what to expect when I go after it for real.

A few months ago I did that with Mega Man 2 and was surprised at how quickly I got through it - no save states or anything. A couple weeks ago I impulsively started Chrono Trigger. I've never beaten it before, but I've just passed the furthest point I have before and am about to resurrect Zorro - er, Crono.

Eff the emo jank - this CD is rockin' my socksin'. So - BUMP.

Holy smokes! I never even tried the second one...but the first was my first RPG-ish victory.

I've also been a fan of this mix from the WIP forum. So glad to see it now an official OCRemix!

This really is a beautiful piece...

This is pretty sweet. While it does sound Viklund-ish, it still stands on its own. Nice work! If there's more to improve, can't wait to hear it!

This also is in my favorites collection. An OCR classic, I'd say. I'm not familiar with the source material, but I like the use of the chiptune. And the composition is layered with nuancet though it makes me think more of The City of Lost Children than Amelie. The tone is just - not bizarre, nor arcane, but eccentric. The tone takes me back to childhood playing NES games I never quite understood but was fascinated with nonetheless.

I really dig the smooth vibe, here. Music of this style is my favorite. I don't mean to disrespect the source material here, but it makes me think of PilotWings (SNES). Anyway, thought you'd like to know I used this in a presentation on day 2 of my orientation/training with the AICPA. We were told to whip up a quick PowerPoint on one of the member discounts. I asked if music was allowed. 'Twas verily, so a quick hit to the site, download, import - it turned out to be the most enjoyed presentation of the group; with no small thanks to the music.

Thanks for posting this. I dig your WIPs and such, so it's cool getting an album's worth of quality material.

I'm not sure what it is... It's not outright dissonance - but something doesn't seem quite right. The main melody and the march melody seem to be off-key or something. I think the idea of the mash-up is a great one. They're two great themes that could make wonderful musical babies - it just seems this version needs a little more time gestating.

Heh, I agree with Spakku in that I keep waiting for the Bond guitar to kick in during the intro. However, my opinion diverges from there... The guitar's pretty balls-out awesome - but the little off-timings and such need to be tightened up. The solo in the middle is cool, and then from the ending on I really dig it. I'd advise to just work on that first section after the intro.

Very nice. I'd say its beauty lies in its simplicity.

Well, if I recall correctly, in the original cartoon all the Transformers could fly when they were in robot form. And is it just me or does the architecture of Cybertron look somewhat similar to Bombman's stage? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wJ16d-qpBEE&feature=fvw
