    ^^^And he's awful becausssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssse? :whatever: Better Beltrami got this gig than any of Zimmer's cronies (excluding John Powell) who'd come up with generic droning than an actual score.

    Anyways I'm happy for Marco. He's a great composer (Mimic, Scream Quadrilogy, Blade II, Hellboy, I, Robot, Knowing, 3:10 To Yuma, The Thing (2011) are proof of that), and I'm sure he'll write something interesting for this. Glad he got the gig instead of one of Zimmer's cronies. Can't say I'm excited for the movie itself though.

    And I bet this score's going to be better than Zimmer's MOS.

    Beltrami's work on the Thing was extremely dull.

    Beltrami is a great choice for this movie -- and I expected either him or John Powell since Mangold has worked with both of them. His action material alone will put Henry Jackman and Gregson-Williams' efforts to shame.

    I wonder if he will use any of the previous composer's themes (Kamen, Ottman, Powell) in the score. He did that for The Omen remake and for his two Die Hard scores.

    He has a good resume! So I support this decision! Plus he already worked with the director before!

    No love for Beltrami's Hellboy score? Loved it.

    I'm hoping for Beltrami to deliver a more Japanese-tinged score with heavy dollops of Hellboy and T3 for good measure.

    Great... looking forward to this film for once. :D

    I love it. Gotta admit as much as I love Elfman's score for the sequel. I think Beltrami wrote the better score. Man would I love to hear a Beltrami Batman score. Maybe he'll score the rumored batman reboot to wipe that stale sound Zimmer created for TDK trilogy, but I guess Wolverine will do. I expect it'll be better than Gregson-Williams forgettable score for the last turkey. I'm just not looking forward to another Wolverine movie with Jackman as the lead once again. It's already been played out, imo.

    Oh did he do the first Hellboy score? I love that one! I can still hum it! Very underrated. Way better than Elfman's which was a bit too generic superhero.

    ?

    I love both scores but if anything Beltrami's is the typical SH score. Elfman's is a really old fashioned and romantic score, more in the vein of Sleepy Hollow or Nightbreed than Spider-Man or Batman. Hellboy's theme isn't really prominant compared to the Golden Army/Nuada themes.

    Conversely Beltrami did the typical hero/love interest/villain theme SH gig that incidentally was more than a little inspired by Elfman, as requested (demanded?) by Del Toro. I'm not knocking it, I love the score to death, but it's really tradtional as far as SH scores go.

    If only Elfman's score for HBII was generic superhero music, film music would be a LOT more interesting.

    Anyway I love Beltrami and can't wait to hear what he comes up with for this.
