Jarbas 1 Posted June 15, 2007 Share Posted June 15, 2007 I listened Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer audioclips and I found Silver Surfer Theme, without puns, fantastic!!!!. For me it´s a memorable theme for a super-hero! Very dramatic and superb! Did anybody already hear this new John Ottman score? Give your opinions!

Red 75 Posted June 15, 2007 Share Posted June 15, 2007 I know he's not a villain, and is rediculously powerful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jarbas 1 Posted June 15, 2007 Author Share Posted June 15, 2007 Silver Surfer is really a superhero. His first appearance was in the Fantastic Four comic book, where he comes to prepare the Earth for your destruction by the hands of Galactus, that needs to consume the energy of whole planets to survive. Eventually, he riots against your master and he turns back the good person that was previously. Actually, he became Galactus herald to save your own planet of the destruction.Excuse for me to have revealed the plot of the film.

Mr. Breathmask 555 Posted June 16, 2007 Share Posted June 16, 2007 The theme is alright, but not that great. The Fantastic Four theme was better. I think this one is derived from it or something, though. They fit together quite nicely.But it's the usual John Ottman "everybody's in" kind of writing that I find rather tiring to listen. It's very nice that there's someone doing these big orchestral scores with leitmotifs and everything - Ottman's intent is certainly right - but I just don't find his style for it that pleasing. I liked Kiss Kiss Bang Bang in the movie, though. Seems like a smaller score, too. I'll have to check that one out at some point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SomeNewGuy 0 Posted June 16, 2007 Share Posted June 16, 2007 After seeing the film (which blows), I have to say that the score is certainly acceptable. I don't feel an urge to buy it, but I don't have any real complaints about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All the more significant when I tell you that you don't really need this one.As you said the theme is good, very good even, but the rest of it is just a bit too....Almere.
