Composer James Horner died in a plane crash.

He created the music for films such as Titanic, Avatar, Glory, and a lot more

Looks like he was the only occupant of the turboprop plane.

Oh dang. His scores are fantastic. I own a few of them. RIP.

Star Trek: Wrath of Khan sprang to my mind when I read the news.
Also Willow and Krull, memories from my teens when I first started to notice orchestral movie scores.
This is a very sad day.

It's a shame to hear of his passing. For me, when I think of his work, my mind personally leaps to Honey, I Shrunk the Kids, with its Raymond Scott-inspired themes.
