Cerebral Cortex 3,357 Posted August 25, 2021 Share Posted August 25, 2021 Given how much of a musical junction this film has the potential to be, I really can't think of anyone else I would rather have at the helm of this film's score than Giacchino. You can say what you will about the guy, but he definitely seems to have a respect for musical continuity and throwback that goes largely unrivaled in the industry, and I really hope he capitalizes on the opportunity before him.

bored 306 Posted November 17, 2021 Share Posted November 17, 2021 I'd flat out just prefer a Spider-Man 4 than another Iron Boy Jr. film, but if they give Tobey and/or Andrew somewhat of a nice sendoff, I'll be happy. Though since it's MCU, they'll probably just be made a joke of (or their villains will), or just suck up to Mr. Iron Boy. Not Mr. Big 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Romão 2,274 Posted November 17, 2021 Share Posted November 17, 2021 For some reason, it is now fashionable to bring actors from previous, unconnected iterations of the character to the more recent movies (as in The Flas with Batman), and because people have a nostalgic attachment to those previous iterarions, somewhow it seems like a good idea. Honestly, it feels very cheap, creatively speaking, and there's no way the actual scenes of the three Spiderman actors together lives up to how cool the idea might seem. It's like the starting point was to have the actors all together in this and then work out a story to somehow justify it. I apologize for being so bitter, but this is lame. It's just reinforcing two of the most pervasive tendencies in blockbuster filmaking these days: superheros and nostalgia catering.

Honestly, I agree with that sentiment. I'll admit the only reason I'm hoping for Tobey and Andrew to show up is because I want to see some resolution to their storylines, not because I think it will make the film itself better (because it mostly looks cringe aside from a few cool lines from Otto and Norman). Even then it wouldn't surprise me if this movie did nothing with those 2 Spider-Men and is just to set up Doctor Strange 2, since I could see Sam Raimi wanting an excuse to do more with Tobey's Spider-Man.

mstrox 6,643 Posted November 17, 2021 Share Posted November 17, 2021 In the never ending argument of “is it a spoiler,” I tend to lean on “was it revealed in the official promotion?” In which case, as of today, Goblin, Octopus, Electro, Sandman, and Lizard are not spoilers but other characters who have appeared in leaked photos or set reports would be.

Cerebral Cortex 3,357 Posted November 18, 2021 Share Posted November 18, 2021 I feel like there has yet to be a score for one of these huge ensemble franchise-spanning films that has really capitalized on drawing from all the previous existing themes other composers have written and having them all play off one another in an organic and cohesive way. The argument as to whether or not such an approach is really even necessary is certainly not without merits, as to create a score in such a manner runs the risk of the score itself not having a proper identity of its own. I also realize that it's partially dependent on the film itself, and whether it creates openings for themes to even be reprised. As far as the MCU is concerned, really the effort that comes closest would be Endgame, and while the effort is at least admirable, all the character themes that do return are mostly reduced to single-use cameo appearances and are heard through tracked in cues from their respective films. With this film, Giacchino really has a golden opportunity to do something that somehow really hasn't been done quite on this scale before: a film score brimming with character themes from numerous other composers that all co-exist and play off one another in an overarching soundscape. I'd be lying if I said I hope he doesn't go all out and just brings everything back, in a way that's hopefully tasteful, respectful, and fresh. There is so much potential to have a truly fun score with this film, and thankfully the composer in charge of making it happen has both a pretty decent track record with adapting themes from other composers and seems to have a small enough of an ego to not have a problem with doing so. Indeed, if Giacchino does commit with a score brimming with so many returning themes, a better point of discussion and speculation may be what new music he can even write for this film, and not what old music he can bring back.

Jay 37,281 Posted November 18, 2021 Author Share Posted November 18, 2021 Yea it'd be interesting if he plays stuff off each other.

Some people might argue that they don't want to see the trailer before watching the movie. Maybe blind people have the luxury of choice. But once it's spelled out which villains from the previous franchises are returning, it could be argued it's giving out spoilers. And this is not flagged as a spoiler thread. Even though it's not been confirmed that the previous actors are also returning. But never mind, by all means, keep on being right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Docteur Qui 1,544 Posted November 18, 2021 Share Posted November 18, 2021 Man I really loved Elfman’s Doc Ock theme, I hope Giacchino uses it. He tends to do that kind of thing so it’s pretty likely.

Jay 37,281 Posted November 18, 2021 Author Share Posted November 18, 2021 It's a pretty universal standard that anything shown on posters or seen in trailers can be talked about openly, but stuff from leaks (such as confirming that actors who are not shown on posters or in trailers yet will in fact be in it, and at what point in the movie they appear) should be spoiler blocked.

blondheim 1,157 Posted November 18, 2021 Share Posted November 18, 2021 I didn't confirm. I merely stated what I had been reading. Thus the quotes. According to the actors, that is completely false speculation. I honestly wasn't trying to spoil anything. I figured by this point we all knew they were speculated to return (we had been talking about the themes for a while) so I felt the quotes were a great way of saying that it was just part of that sea of Marvel rumors we are all floating in.

saulocf 79 Posted November 18, 2021 Share Posted November 18, 2021 Lost is a proof that Giacchino is a master in leit motif writing, themes developing and etc.. Star Trek, Speed Racer, Mission Impossible, Jurassic World, Rogue One all prove that he can integrate themes from other composers well. (The only counter example is creating a new theme for Iron Man in Spider-Man Homecoming - and a very bad one at that). His quick mention of his Medal of Honor Underground theme in Ratatouille, or the Ratatouille rats’ theme in American Pickle, or the way that he evolves the Death Star motif into the imperial March in RO makes me believe that he is the man to provide a cohesive multiverse score.

IMO Rogue One has great usage of previous JW themes, and also bad ones. Yes, the Force theme sounds awkward in some places, but I think the imperial themes sounds great, and the blink and you'll miss quote of Leia's theme is fantastic.
