rough cut 1344 Posted July 12, 2022 Share Posted July 12, 2022 I was watching one of my old guilty pleasures yesterday, Crimson Tide, and got curious about the soundtrack. The heroic theme is very similar to Pirates Of The Caribbean - but the melody is not yet chiseled into the memorable theme it will “become” - so it wasn’t vey hard to deduce that it was Zimmer who was behind the score. However, this is such a great movie - and a great score! Upon googling a little bit about it, the score for Crimson Tide is credited as being behind “the sound of the modern blockbuster”, as much thanks to Zimmer as to its producer Jerry Bruckheimer. And I guess this is correct, it hits all the marks where it’s “supposed” to, in a way that I suppose is more standard (or “cliche”) in every big movie since. I thought this was really cool, that one movie and one composer is able to transform the industry this way. By comparison, I recently watched Top Gun, another Bruckheimer production, and - while an excellent movie - 80’s movies were scored differently. Any thoughts whether this is actually the case, that Zimmer is the one to set the “modern blueprint”? I saw some argumentation that it wasn’t Crimson Tide, but rather The Rock - but that makes it a moot point, since Zimmer scored that movie as well… ; ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mstrox 5623 Posted July 12, 2022 Share Posted July 12, 2022 I think there’s no doubt that Zimmer has set the modern blueprint for film scoring (for better or worse). Not sure if it was one score that did it, but his work through the mid and late 1990s especially for Bruckheimer ended up being very influential. I don’t know if it was cemented as THE thing until Pirates or even Batman Begins, though. Stark 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think people like The Rock more so they might elevate that one. But Crimson Tide was everywhere. It was being used in trailers. It was being used in temp tracks. I even remember Spielberg talking about it. If he didn't have Williams I'm sure he would have hired Zimmer at that point. It was really a game changer.

artguy360 1631 Posted July 13, 2022 Share Posted July 13, 2022 I love or enjoy a lot of HZ's work. The original Lion King score is great, Gladiator is a personal favorite, and almost all of his Nolan work is powerful and effective. But the best use of HZ's music will forever and always be in Iron Chef. His score for Back Draft elevates the melodrama and epic-nature of Japanese Iron Chef to a whole other level.

Edmilson 4316 Posted July 13, 2022 Share Posted July 13, 2022 I think it's fair to say that HZ created (for better or worse) the sound of modern blockbusters not just once, but rather three or four times, depending of how you count. Crimson Tide influenced the late 90s movies, then Batman Begins and Inception influenced the music for the 2000s/2010s. Stark and badbu 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WampaRat 1094 Posted October 5, 2022 Share Posted October 5, 2022 Cool. I look forward to watching that. Im part of that motley who became a film score nerd having first heard Gladiator as a youngin back in 2000. (My Mom was actually really into Black Hawk Down and would play “Synchrotone” in the English Class she taught for a writing prompt 😄) Lots of fond memories of his early 2000s output. I’ve been less and less interested in his more recent works. But WW84 was a blast and I actually really dug Dune. I think he’s earned a nice retrospective at this point in his career.
