[Legendver2]

Just heard it. It's absolute ****. It's like he just remixed the Avengers theme with some Raimi Spider-Man. Wtf is this crap.

Sounds like a temp track they during editing till the real tracks get ready.

Guys guys, I repeat, it is not THE theme. Its just music for a key point in the movie. We have not hear "The Justice League theme" yet.

 

[Parquagh]

Hopefully the theme will be something like the music from the Comic Con trailer (starting at 1:25 min till the end).

Everything I've heard of Elfman's work on JL thus far has been utter dirge, he works with Burton and their ideologies work, this, on the other hand requires a different set of nuances and approach and in my view, he's cocked up royally, so basically now, the film's **** because of the edit butchering and the score's **** because they chose the wrong person. What a mess !!!

I will never get tired of using this gif.

If you could find a gif with the angriest person in the world in it, that would be appropriate to how I feel about this film. Cheers.

So what we're getting for this film in music is a mosh posh of old Superman themes, old Batman themes, old Spidey theme mixed with some old Avengers motif. Like wth happened....

'What happened to the American dream?'

Sorry, couldn't resist.

Honestly, Elfman could rehash the Raimi Spider-Man music and I'd be fine.

JL has serviceable music, but seems to be a step up from LOUDMAN v SPEAKERSTATIC: DAWN OF NIHL

Man of Steel had an underrated score, so I'd be okay with more cues from that.

 

[ddddeeee]

I really like the Steppenwolf track.

 

[Greens]

Not really tickled by the latest two tracks, but we'll see.

 

[WayneKyloStark]

I'll hold my judgement until I actually listen to the
full soundtrack as a cohesive body of work. I'm all for
Elfman using older themes as long as it's presented freshly.

The DCEU has had amazing soundtracks so far.
I do have high hopes for the Justice League being the strongest one.

Stop being positive in this thread!

Remember, you brought that upon yourself, don't cry afterwards that we didn't warn you.

I'll wait for an official release, I don't trust anything that "leaks" this early, especially when it comes to musical scores.

So Hero’s Theme is one of two themes for the JL in this movie. The other hasn’t been released yet(or leaked as far as I can tell) and plays over the logos. Which is good. I’m not crazy about the leaked Justice League United track or whatever it’s called, so glad it’s not their theme.

 

[kguillou]

Reading between the lines, I understand now. "Hero's theme" is more for the "proto Justice League" aka the 5 without Superman. That theme represents them being a work in progress and then when Superman comes and completes the team, they probably get a much more triumphant sounding theme.

That’s what I got from it. Also excited to hear the motifs for Cyborg Flash And Aquaman. Though the last 30 seconds of Hero’s Theme very much make me think of Cyborg.

Maybe the actual theme is the one played in the motion poster?

That’s a variation on Zimmers Superman Theme.

I really tried, but I still can't hear Zimmer's theme in that

It’s almost exactly the same. Not the main two note motif but the full theme. Listen to “What Are You Going To Do When You Are Not Saving The World” from MOS at around 2:45

 

[Arachnerd]

Not to mention the piano note at the very end which sounds incredibly familiar.

Sometimes scores will grow on me over time, so I won't call this one garbage yet.

HOWEVER, the Hero theme by Elfman for the film, it sort of reminds me of the Ant-Man score a little bit. Did anyone else get that? The beginning kind of reminds me of the Ant-Man theme.

Also, many don't like Elfman's original Spider-Man score or music, but I'm quite fond of it.
