One of this score's best and most underrated moments, especially in the context of the film, is the introduction of the Kraken's theme in "Row to Tia Dalma". The tense buildup while Gibbs describes the creature's horrors, then the brief pause as he names it, followed by the theme in the absolute lowest registers of the orchestra, quiet, but so so so menacing and also just SUPER FUCKING COOL.<br><br>It gives me goosebumps every time, in a *dialogue scene*. That is incredibly good musical storytelling.Edmund: And posted their one-sentence review of it on the Hans Zimmer fan site.Anything missed from the official release?oh damn really? huh that would be cool. even with the ultimate edition there’s still deleted scenes and I wish they were put on the Blu ray.<br><br>it plays during the scene after the knightmare when Clark is looking through the polaroids that say judge jury executioner on them. i don’t remember if that’s an extended scene or not as I’ve only seen the theatrical cut once in theaters. one and done lol"Chicken Run really makes you FEEL like you're in a concentration camp." - IGN
I guess it comes from a deleted scene where Jesse Eisenberg gets playful with his dinner. Rumor has it it's gonna be included in the Snyder Cut.I love the notion of Barack Obama and IGN teaming up to review 20 year old film scores.Smoothly done soundtrack. IGN - 10/10what the hell is Quaker steak and lube????I disagree on Catwoman. I love Zimmer's theme and I thought it is one of his most underrated themes.
Loved the new tracks!<br><br>Hans & Chris really did something special.<br><br>I enjoyed the Tenet score, but honestly Ludwig's work doesn't compare to Zimmer's. I just hope they work together again instead of Chris choosing Ludwig as his main collaborator from now on.Agreed.<br><br>I don’t know, TDKR feels a little oppressive to me in comparison with BB and TDK , probably as a result of Nolan’s musical tastes veering away from symphonic to more abstract. Reading the new book on Nolan gives me the impression that he has a very similar approach to his music as he does his filmmaking. With that said though, TDKR is still a solid conclusion to the franchise. Bane’s theme is excellent and the culmination of the various “Bat-Themes” do feel well earned. Catwoman’s theme is solid, but for some reason is dropped from most of the movie in favor of the repeating two-note phrase.<br><br>@Moggyman<br>Honestly I feel as if JNH’s work on the first two Hunger Games sequels showed a strong improvement in writing and theme building. The last score was a bit too much of a pastiche, but orchestrally a stronger fit than the first one. And “Crimes of Grindelwald” is easily one of the best sequel scores in the past few years (alongside Star Wars and HTTYD). Unfortunately we still don’t have a good album situation for that though. -_-Counterpoint: I liked Crimes of Grindelwald more than the first Fantastic Beasts. And forget Hanging Tree - "Air Raid Drill" from the first and "Sewer Attack" from the second Mockingjay are the best cues from that series. Plus, JNH honestly hasn't worked on that many sequels so we don't really have enough to go on here. <br><br>I think having JNH on board for Catwoman would have done wonders for this score. Hans' theme is okay, but feels like a bit of an afterthought compared to Bane.TDK & TDKR have amazing theme suites.<br><br>But as for the scores in film, they don't even get close to Batman Begins !I like Tom but idk he's gone downhill in my book. Alita was boring, i was over the moon excited for Terminator cause that was a perfect mix and it was disappointed big time. I'd love to hear Steve Jablonsky tackle that and get back to being as great as he used to, he has been phoning it in big time lately
Ok, before I eat my words, JNH did create the Hanging Tree in Mockingjay p1 which was good, but nothing else other than that in the sequels.For being the so called "weakest", it's very good. And if you think that Bane's theme is repetitive, I would say the same about the Joker's theme in TDK (to me they are both good though). <br><br>Now in all fairness, JNH could have probably added good material to the score since he's a genius, but I personally think he doesn't do well on sequels. Sure, in TDK he gave harvey dent a theme that resonated with his character (but was similar to material already used in BB). Yet, if you look at his work in the hunger games, its seems to me that he couldn't bring something both new and compelling to the sequels as he did in the first movie. I will agree with you that Batman Begins has the best music of the series though.After re-listening to this one, it's clearly the weakest of the trilogy. Of course it's not bad, the new themes are pretty good (though I think Bane's theme is a bit too repetitive and dry at times), there's still emotional moments, but JNH's absence really left a hole in this score.<br><br>I get to an extent that's the point, that all of Bruce's potential for a happy life is gone, but even the emotional tracks to me have nowhere near the emotional resonance that JNH's themes brought to the films. <br><br>"Come With Me" is the best example, where the slow emotional Selina Kyle chords just don't leave much of an impact. Definitely could have used JNH's "Courthouse Pt. 1" or the main theme from "Bruce Left For Dead" to emphasize Bruce's giving up of a quiet life. <br><br>Of course I still appreciate the way the 2 note motif is developed into a theme of its own, as well as the score as a whole, but then you get tracks like "Many Forms of Immortality" which just emphasize how much more effective the thematic work in Batman Begins was.It could also be Tom, who worked on Run All Night, and is already an established DC composer<br>Either way I'll be happyI lowkey think James is gonna score the Black Adam movie. it's the same director from Jungle Cruise so I'm sure he'll be brought along for it

Gotta keep an eye on iTunes. The Apple guys often have exclusive tracks for Sony Classical albums.

True. Though I'd like one of those "special edition" albums more!

Oh, I see it now. When I posted my question there was nothing listed on here or IMDb regarding Tillman's involvement (and I don't have the physical CD booklet to use as reference yet)

I was starting to think that having to perform the Joker theme over and over might have caused him to reconsider working on another project with Hans... :)

Cloud reply Replies: 0 || 2009-05-09 00:00:00
So is it I60 BMP or 160 BPM? The track listings for the CD on Amazon say "I" whereas the downloadable version says "1"...

@Cloud

I think it's 160 BPM, because in the booklet that's the trackname! :)

If you are a good musician, you can recognize 160 BPM rythm.

Sylvos reply Replies: 0 || 2009-05-09 00:00:00
"I" is "1" in a way, anyhow.

How can you have this score already?! It'll be released on 05/12/2009...I'm sorry if you download it...let develop music world with original CDs... ;-) Am I right?!

Dawn reply Replies: 0 || 2009-05-09 00:00:00
160 BPM
that's it !
Then the track name is based on the tempo of the song, definitely !

Kusi reply Replies: 0 || 2009-05-09 00:00:00
Here in Switzerland we've it already, I'm sorry, that's the truth! I'd better like to have a cd in my hands than a mp3 file on the hard disk! :-)

Yes...I agree with you Kusi!!! It's much better the original CD!!!

Netherlands is 11-05 hehe.. but thats the german (thats means also the swiss) version ''Illuminati''... The American version is 15th here...
The Illuminati version has a better cover in my opinion.

A free bonus track (about 2 minutes and titled "H2O," and not featured on the regular album) is available for download here: www.angelsanddemons.com/soundtrack/

I'm assuming that the title "H2O" refers to Water - it would make sense, judging by the other titles on the CD (Air, Fire).

Skyler reply Replies: 0 || 2009-05-09 00:00:00
If anyone's interested they should probably download it at their earliest convenience - I'm not sure how much longer it's going to be there for free

Does anyone know what happened to Martin Tillman? Why was he not involved with this score?
He had such a prominent role in the Da Vinci Code and so I'm not exactly sure why he didn't return. It's also strange given that he and Hans just worked on Frost/Nixon and The Dark Knight.

Also, I wonder if the addition of Joshua Bell is at all related to this...

My favourite composer.
I really wish to work with him one day as soon as I'm a filmmaker.
He's my source of inspiration!
I'm sure I'm going to love "A&D" once I loved "The Da Vinci Code"!
It's impossible not to love Hans.. his soundtracks are always epic and speecheless.

Skyler reply Replies: 0 || 2009-05-08 00:00:00
At almost 2 minutes into "Air," Zimmer reprises his Pazzi theme from "Hannibal" - I knew we hadn't heard the last of that theme! So far this is my favorite track on the CD (although I haven't listened to the much-talked-about "Science and Religion" cue yet)

Thank you for not posting those kind of (bad) "joke" (maybe his dead) ; bad humour, not interesting sentence, do not use your fingers on your keyboard for such a poor quote.

OMG - I've just heard the entire soundtrack!
And I have to admit - WOW
The song "Science And Religion" it's wonderfull.
I mean, the entire soundtrack is wonderfull!

Why are you all being so mean! Maybe Martin Tillman was envolve in other projects and couldn't be present for this soundtrack... And adding Joshua Bell in this soundtrack was a great idea! I love violins and this ost is full of them!

New sound: I60 BMP, there is a reprise in "Fire". Themes from the CODE: The Cetrine Cross with all the variations, and Daniel's 9th Cipher with Joshua Bell... only the rhythm is faster and action cues, excelent!

Great soundtrack. "Science and religion" left speechless, as if it was wrote by angels. "Election By Adoration" and "503" are changes on DVC theme. The rest of the soundtrack is harder to listen without the movie but I bet that next week I'll adore the entire score^^

I love it.

Only Zimmer can go from The Da Vinci to This.

With 2 bones! It's shit, but enjoyable shit.

it makes "the kraken" and "why so serious" vivaldi pieces.

I love it!
