Homecoming Michael Giacchino is the Composer for Spider-Man: Homecoming

"Composed and arranged by Benjamin Squires" is in the description. He has a lot of other very well done fan-made scores on his channel.
 
EDIT my bad. Darn that sounded great. Why so many great things turning out to be fake today?
 
Add that to the list of things that'll disappoint when the actual thing they use in the film isn't that. That ending was sublime.

I still believe in Giacchino

So much for sounding like a "jingle" I have a hard time seeing how anybody is going to "expand" on that theme in future movies. I wish Giacchino would have just expanded on Jackman's motif from Civil War or did the classic 60s theme like that fanmade ost.

It's just so generic

It sounds good. Need to hear more from the rest of the soundtrack but boy does Spidey's theme (at least at the beginning) sound similar to Rey's theme from Force Awakens. Anybody else hearing it?

I'll have to keep on listening to it. Certainly sounds fun and light-hearted. Much better than TASM 2's soundtrack already but I don't think it's beat Elfman's. Maybe nothing will for me. It's too iconic in my mind.

So uh.... this is the theme to the iconic Spider-Man returning to the MCU? Mickey Mouse comes home, the main character comes home, to the score of pure, unfiltered genericness?

Giacchino. You're so much better than this. Not usually the type of poster to rip on things, but as an avid fan of Micheal, he can do so, so so SO much better. He already involuntarily made one of the greatest Spider-Man tracks in the world without realising it, except it's under the name of Speed-Racer.

1:50 onwards.

I can only hope when you're in the cinema this all just fits together and makes sense.
 
Well that was underwhelming :D

That is exactly my take about it too. I adore Giacchino. His work is perhaps the biggest reason why Lost is my favorite tv-show. And his Doctor Strange was great too, even if he revisited some previous ideas. This is subpar.

Now I can relate to you guys when something in this movie disappoints me, lol.
 
You guys have to remember the direction they're going in this movie. This is a Spider-Man still unsure of himself and still early in his career as Spider-Man. I think the track reflects that, it's sounds fun and light-hearted but also heroic and quite epic still. However the epic part does sound like previous Marvel films. I can see people chalking it up to a "Generic MCU score". Heck, already seen people say that.

My point is, according to the film makers and producers we haven't reached the Spider-Man we all know and love just yet so maybe when we get to that Spider-Man swinging around Manhattan we'll get something a bit more grand?


What are people's opinion on Vulture's theme? Reminds me a bit of this:

I think it's better than the Hans Zimmer's theme from TASM2 but not better than Danny Elfman's theme. It's near James Horner's theme though.
 
Hmm that wasn't so bad, just kinda there, the average Spider-Man score I guess. Reminds me of Tyler at points, like Marvel asked Giacchino to do the RC sound or something, at least he's trying something a little different I guess, but eh.

I liked the middle "dramatic" part at least.
 
That fan-made score is so good (better than Elfman/Horner/Zimmer). I'm scared to listen to the real thing.

...Small part of me might agree with you though, inner nostalgic child in me just fighting it.

No inner child needed. The Elfman score is considerably better as is even Horner's. Elfman's score captured the character of Spider-Man quite well.
 
Elfman reigns, and will always reign for this piece alone.

1:29 onwards, the shot of Peter looking over MJ on the crane is -the- most iconic part in any Spider-Man film, yes, even more so than the train scene.

Horner didn't just make a beautiful Spider-Man piece, he may of created one the most soul wrenching, heart string pulling pieces of music ever created. [Ever created may be pushing it, but you know what I mean.]

2 minutes onwards is honestly something else, cannot believe Horner is gone.
 
Man, I'm hoping Ragnorak breaks this curse cuz these MCU scores are just so blah man. I'm wondering if this is a purposeful intent from Feige or the composers just arent inspired enough?

Completely agreed on both of those tracks...honestly underwhelmed by this suite and I love Giacchino but hoping it works better in context with the film.

I really do believe that Elfman's score is the best that Spidey's music cinematically will ever be. Orchestrated magic it was and still is.
 
I jus love the score between 1:00 - 2:04. It is too damn EPIC. For me, it's right next to Danny Elfman's theme. Much better than Horner and Zimmer's score. My only gripe is that they should've extended it more than a min and maybe could've added choir to make it sound more epic, still it's AMAZING. Great work Giacchino. Have been listening to it for the past one hour...!!!
 
Those tracks are so bland and uninspired. I'm all for trying new things but after hearing Giacchino doing the 60s theme it's like "boy, that shoulda just been the theme through the whole movie"
