What's wrong with TOKYO DRIFT?
Nothing. Just my personal preference against electronic sound. The cue is not that bad anyway, so I might exaggerate a bit. -

...a "flavour of the month" score,
I kinda agree with them. All I regularly listen to now are the first 4 tracks, Club Nool, Dr. Larue, The Bridge Work and Horton Suite. -

It's a little bit repetitive. The theme is gorgeous, but over used. The action stuff is terrific , when it appears, and Davis touch is very present.
NP: I don't think now is the bes time (Zimmer).
I wonder what Zimmer haters though about this track.
I find his best action track ever. All the main themes from Pirates of Caribbean are here. -

Some of them probably hate it cos' it has "composed by Hans Zimmer" written on the cover
Only if it was in the chronological order of the movie, it would've been much better!
NP: Superman Returns - John Ottman
One of the best scores of 2006, IMO

NP: Indiana Jones and The Kingdom of The Crystal Skull - John Williams
Just finishing off the "Finale" after my first listen - and I have to admit that I was clock watching towards the end. The CD just seemed too long with not enough there of interest. And what was of interest was the old Raiders March heard in the first and last cues. And I quite liked how Williams played around with the Raiders March towards the end of the "Finale".
I'm sure that people will recommend multiple listens for the score to grow on me but, at the moment, the thought of putting aside 75+ minutes isn't a happy thought!The views expressed in this post are entirely my own and do not reflect the opinions of maintitles.net, or for that matter, anyone else. http://www.racksandtags.com/falkirkbairn -

You should probably just see the film first. While watching it, there were several themes I grew to love, while they didn't struck me like that on album. So, yeah, it grows on you
And, by the way, I also loved how the score was used in the film. I didn't think it was mixed too quiet at all, it's just right. And the careful way Williams places his themes, as opposed to the loose 'lets put this melody here' method of Zimmer during Pirates for example, is just great to notice again. How Irina's theme pops up, for instance, the moment her picture comes on screen. Such a rare thing nowadays. -

There's the Superman March near the end of the film, only that it isn't on the soundtrack. I got an unofficial version of it anyway
NP: King Arthur - Hans Zimmer
Though not his finest score, it certainly has good moments. Eg: I love the big choral action music in "Do you think I'm a Saxon?" and "Budget Meeting". -

NP - Kung Fu Panda - Zimmer/Powell
It's stupidly easy to tell who wrote what in most cases. All the Zimmer cues sound like Zimmer, containing all the deep string, heroic brass, and regularly heard chord progressions. The Powell ones sound like Powell, with the playful woodwinds and heavily Spanish-influenced timings.
Depending on who you prefer, certain parts of the score may bore, annoy, or excite you!
Oh good, I'm onto another Zimmer track...

And Jordi, you're right in guessing Zimmer did the longer tracks.

Is it me, or is one of the themes just a varient on ''The Great Tree'' from Endurance?
