87th Oscar Original Score First Entries (2014-2015 Awards Season) (9/21/11)

For those who are keeping track at home, you’ll remember that my goal was to make initial predictions for all of the major categories before beginning my new rotation system, coincidentally (or by ingenious design) also corresponding with the end of the September film festivals. Today’s entry means that I now have initial predictions for all of the major categories for the 87th Oscars. I still have a few blanks left in the 86th race, but have decided to begin the new rotation anyway, to add some spice to this blog. So stay tuned tomorrow when we’ll kick off the new rotation with predictions for the 84th Oscar Lead Actor race (coming just days after the release of Leonardo DiCaprio’s trailer for J. Edgar.)

Here are today’s entries for the 87th Oscar Original Score race (2014-2015 awards season). Where possible I have included the known or rumored composer, but when that is not known I have simply judged the films based on what we know of their content and genre.
