How dare Zimmer copy Max Steiner and include an orchestra in Inception!!
He should have gone the route of postmodern sound design and used plastic spoons banging on a table instead!! Where's the creativity? The inspiration? The originality?
But then he would be accused of copying Jerry Goldsmith.

He didn't copy Vangelis; Vangelis is everywhere in this genre; when you touch a synth to write synth music, Vangelis is the area's heritage as one of the pioneers of the genre naturally. Inception is 100% Zimmer; modern, unique and trademarked his sound; open your ears.
A track like Old souls is clearly a homage to Blade runner and I'm pretty sure he was asked to do it in that style. I've no problem with it. In fact I think it's a cool homage. But to deny it and call it 100% Zimmer is a denial of the obvious.

Probably not nearly as many times as Jordi has to tell us about his latest opinion on the new Zimmer score. (Which is always worth reading and not tiresome at all.) -

Jordi:
"oh zimmer, how do i love thee? let me count the ways ."
Zimmer: "He loves me, he loves me not. He loves me, he loves me not..."The views and opinions of Ford A. Thaxton are his own and do not necessarily reflect the ones of ANYONE else. -

NP : MARY, QUEEN OF SCOTS - John Barry
Gorgeous, gentle melodies, ominously dark moods, grand, regal fanfares and even the odd bagpipes here and there, Historical drama is something that Barry truly excelled in, what a shame he wasn't given more opportunity in this genre, a genre where I believe he was only matched by Georges Delerue.On Friday I ate a lot of dust and appeared orange near the end of the day ~ Bregt -

Paycheck - Powell
I'm really appreciating Powell's music lately. This, How to Train Your Dragon, Bolt, and Hancock have really impressed me. He has one of the freshest sounds out there right now, imo. -

NP: Journey To The Island from Jurassic Park - John Williams
I don't know why at all, but themes from this score and Horton Hears A Who! were stuck in my head, when I was in bed last night. (Or was it this morning? I don't remember)
I don't have Horton yet so I'm playing this now. Fantastic track!Labels are for cans, not people. - Anthony Rapp -

Fantastic score too, haven't listened to it for too long.
Having said that, while the score is fantastic, I think it's a case of a badly released great score. I think the same of Hunt for Red October. Case in point with Jurassic Park? Two very dark pieces (one basically underscore) divided by a romantic theme statement, Why?http://www.filmmusic.pl - Polish Film Music Review Website -

I so want the T-Rex Jeep Chase track from Jurassic Park. One of the best action cues there and not available in any proper format. An expanded release is most welcome by me! -

A bit needlessly over-powering in places but it's a solid effort from Powell. You can't complain about Phoenix's theme - that's just fucking epic.

I remember it being passable, as with the last 2-3 works of the composer AFTER Evening, which was one very inspired work.Love Maintitles. It's full of Wanders. -
