JoeinAR 1,949 Posted May 13, 2013 Share Posted May 13, 2013 I actually like that very much. I was expecting another water color style cover like the posters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trent B 337 Posted May 13, 2013 Share Posted May 13, 2013 Agreed with Joey that does look like a really great cover. It'll be interesting to hear Beltrami's take on this score and I'll definitely see the movie.In a way it mirrors that one scene from Spider-Man 3 when Peter is in the black suit at the top of the church steeple and he's in a similar pose.

Jay 37,281 Posted May 14, 2013 Author Share Posted May 14, 2013 Anybody else notice that every single X-Men film has had a different composer?X-Men - Michael KamenX-Men 2 - John OttmanX-Men 3 - John PowellX-Men Origins Wolverine - Harry Gregson-WilliamsX-Men First Class - Henry JackmanThe Wolverine - Marco BeltramiX-Men Days Of Future Past - John Ottman - the very first time an X-Men film will have a returning composer.

Jay 37,281 Posted June 20, 2013 Author Share Posted June 20, 2013 I have no idea who "DeputyRiley" is on FSM, but he has great things to say about this score: Just listened today! What can I say, it's just freakin' awesome. I pretty much gush about Beltrami all the time, so it's nothing new from my keyboard, but Wolverine is just outstanding. Better than World War Z for sure, and nearly as brilliant as Snowpiercer, which in my opinion is a work of genius. Hyperbole, schmyperbole, I am passionate about this stuff. Wait till you hear what Beltrami did with the harmonica in Wolverine! Only heard the album, which has a few tweaks to be made but is nearing finalized. Will hear complete soon but am utterly captivated by the album, which is terrific -- very action-heavy towards the middle, a few beautiful delicate passages, some ethereal dreamy cues, some suspense, very epic towards the end ("Sword of Vengeance" hits insane heights of epicness and power). Doesn't go overboard with Japanese ethnic orchestration, it's there but not blunt force...except at times some Blade 2-esque percussive action music! http://filmscoremonthly.com/board/posts.cfm?threadID=91580&forumID=1&archive=0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Koray Savas 2,251 Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 As he mentions, he's a die hard Beltrami fan. I think he's a mod on FSM. I've read a bunch of his posts over the years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay 37,281 Posted June 21, 2013 Author Share Posted June 21, 2013 Haven't seen the film obviously but the harmonica seems to represent the lone westerner in a faraway culture kind of thing.along with thickly-orchestrated and -arranged percussion elements, some of the brass blasts also reminded me of Blade 2, even down to some timpani rolls that encouraged more B2 flashbacks...if you love the score you'll know what I mean. Get ready for Wolverine dude, it's your cup of sake! Another ethnic aspect to the score is the ultratalented Sara Andon's flute performances, which are gorgeous in some of the prettier parts of the score, and subtly evoke Japan without going into common filmscore caricature.
