Didn't he say that Superman will have a full, "proper" theme?

And I don't quite get why Elfman is still put on such a high pedestal for Batman themes. His work is really only iconic in the perspective of it's release. I would say that the Zimmer theme is way more dramatic, powerful and iconic.

Yeah, I find it just as memorable. I recall the TDK theme and I think about Batman riding on the batpod.

I agree that his statements lack detail and really provide us with no new substance, but if he's seen the movie, then he'd certainly be under very strict orders to not divulge any information; his public twitter account would be a very unintelligent way to leak information to fans. His unwillingness to reveal more information might simply reflect direct orders from WB. He could certainly be lying, and while there's no proof that he did see it, there also isn't any evidence that he didn't. I think the most reasonable attitude in this situation is to remain neutral and cautious, and to suspend judgement about the authenticity of his claims. I'm just excited that MoS is getting such positive buzz! While I would certainly prefer these early reports to be 100-percent authentic, at least all this buzz -- whether accurate or not -- is increasing awareness among the general public. |

Part of Hans Zimmer's score for the movie "Rush" has been released, however. You can find it here. Maybe it can temporarily satisfy your Zimmer craving. I'm betting that we'll be hearing our first bit of the MoS score with the next trailer, rumored to be coming out in Mid-April. Although, maybe a bit of it will be revealed during Wonder-Con, and maybe a recording will leak onto the web. |

Elfman's Batman is considered the classic but Zimmer is my favourite. Williams' Superman score is considered a classic (more so) and it's likely Zimmer will be my favourite. I just like his sound. Expect different aims. I always enjoy listening to Hans explain his concepts and reasonings.

When it comes to film composers, I grew up a Alan Silvestri fan. But now, I can't deny the pure brilliance of Hans Zimmer. |

Nick Jones on the score: "It felt like a cross between Batman and Gladiator."

Or how about a cross between Pirates of the Caribbean and The Thin Red Line?
See? I can come up with two different Zimmer scored films too. I'm not saying the guy hasn't seen it. I'm just saying that nothing he's said really has him going out on a limb. |

This guy's statements are hilarious. "It sounds like a Hans Zimmer score, you guys!" Oh, well, my gosh, he must have seen it, then.

At any rate, I'm excited that the movie's getting such positive early buzz. Whether or not the buzz itself is grounded in truth, at the very least it serves as extra word-of-mouth marketing -- something to substitute for the lack of marketing from WB we've experienced in recent weeks (nay, months!). |

![]() It "examines Elfman's scoring technique, provides a detailed analysis and commentary on the Batman 89 score." It also proves, imo, how crucial the score is in the movie. And how much impact it had in film music and in film in general. The same publisher of this book did a film score guide of Louis and Bebe Baron's "Forbidden Planet", Alex North's "A Streetcar Named Desire", Bernard Herrmann's "The Ghost & Mrs. Muir", Ennio Morricone's "The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly" and Erich Wolfgang Korngold "The Adventures of Robin Hood" to name a few. I think that's saying a lot about how highly regarded the Batman 89 score is to get a similar analysis and critique as those scores I mentioned above. I doubt there'll ever be a film score guide book(s) on TDK trilogy scores. I definitely recommend "A Film Score's Guide: Danny Elfman's Batman" to those that haven't read it and are interested in it.

Yes, Elfman's score was iconic for its time but it's not the standard for modern superhero scores. The whole soundtrack is brimming of dark comedic tones. Being 'catchy' doesn't make the '89 soundtrack superior either. Ace of Base had hummable songs too, but does make the band superior over current electronic pop bands today? No. That's just nostalgia talking. Zimmer had his shortcomings as a composer but to claim the '89 soundtrack remains the top Batman score is a fallacy. Older fans might identify with Elfman's work but there's no depth to it. Say what you will about Zimmer's efforts but there's no comparison. For instance, in Begins there's one particular scene that cements Hans' score as inspiring and heroic -- Bruce discovering the Batcave and facing his fear. There's no track in Elfman's work that reflected that type of empowerment.

elfmans score and zimmers arent even comparable.
Elfmans is more iconic of the two, no doubt.
