It also seemed terribly on the nose, but maybe the film is more nuanced the trailers make it seem. And I'm down for some good sword fights.

I heard a snippet of the main theme before Led Zeppelin kicked in. I guess the composer will be Ludwig Göransson, who scored Venom and 30 Minutes or Less for the director. But whoever gets the job, I just hope they use Greg Edmonson's classic theme from the games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Henry Jackman did score the last two games, so that’s always a possibility I’m sure the theme will be used in the film as it’s in the trailer for a few seconds at the start. Nothing beats Edmonson’s trilogy of scores though. Edmilson and Bellosh 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bellosh 3,419 Posted October 21, 2021 Share Posted October 21, 2021 Edmonson crushed the first 3 games! I agree. But I absolutely LOVED what Jackman did with Nate's theme in 4. Really made it feel grounded (like the game) As far as the movie trailer, it looks alright. I'm with @Koray Savas as I thought they would be exploring more origins of the character and more 'original' material. I'm gonna take a wild guess and say the executives made a point to have those memorable action scenes from the games, in the movie. But I could be wrong. Those moments in the game are already so 'cinematic' and you're already immersed in the game itself/storyline, that it will be hard to feel excited for those moments in the movie. But I'm someone who's 100% all of the games on Crushing Mode lol. Also, very happy to see that they're having Sam in this game. He was one of the finest additions to the series, imo. Loved his character. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Natalie Wood died, in 1981 (admittedly not from a gunshot wound) but BRAINSTORM was finished. Same thing happened, with Vic Morrow. I guess it depends on how much money people have invested, and how far along the film was. Whatever happens, Baldwin, probably, won't be involved. If this was a terrible accident (as early evidence suggests), then I hope that Baldwin is not prosecuted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apparently, much of the crew walked out the morning before the incident due to negligence and poor working conditions. So don’t think this was an isolated incident, and I don’t think we should really be laying blame on Baldwin prematurely, as you say. Apparently many sets now get away without using prop guns.
