Brónach 1,302 Posted April 8, 2013 Share Posted April 8, 2013 I think what we hear is the bassline of the would-be theme.To be honest, that overdone bassline of the would-be theme was a guilty pleasure of mine when it came out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once 605 Posted April 8, 2013 Share Posted April 8, 2013 Yeah, I seem to remember watching a behind-the-scenes video about the score.It was something like;Jackman: “I dunno man, you can’t use that, that’s just the bass line! There’s no tune!”Vaughn: “You don’t need a fucking tune! Just play the bass line!"Quite amusing, actually. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Koray Savas 2,251 Posted April 9, 2013 Share Posted April 9, 2013 Yeah Jackman had gone it wanting to write a full on Superman-esque orchestral score and ended up being limited to the usual summer blockbuster fare. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Koray Savas 2,251 Posted April 9, 2013 Share Posted April 9, 2013 Jackman? There was a video interview on FSMO that people keep referencing. He wrote a great theme and Vaughn went "That! I like that part, make it the theme," and he goes, "The fucking bassline?!" Once 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoeinAR 1,949 Posted April 9, 2013 Share Posted April 9, 2013 Hanz Zimmer told Zack Snyder you need a better composer to write the score for Man of Steel, and Zack true but they're all dead, or in one case waiting to die, and he won't work for me.

Brónach 1,302 Posted April 10, 2013 Share Posted April 10, 2013 I just heard that video BloodBoal posted and I found it obnoxious. There's nothing great in there.Kick-Ass pretty much only contains interesting snippets mixed with other angles for the music and otyher composers and songs.First Class was a sabotaged score. Still, the rest of the score other than magneto's bass line is unmemorable.So I'd need something else You want GREAT? Take great: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With a cast this big and well known, coming off the well-received First Class, I think it could do Avenger-sized numbers.Seriously. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mix that in with all the returning actors from the first films, and this may be a huge film, but only if Singer can find the magic again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
