Superman Returns Official Soundtrack Preview now Online!!!

Call Me a Negative Nancy but I still dislike it after listening to it again. However, comparing it to other Williams adaptations:
Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets
Jurassic Park 3
Superman 2-4

I'd put it with Jurassic Park 3 and The Superman 2-4 adaptations.
Except that I actually liked the original Material from JP3 and Ken Thorne's Work on S3. Chamber of Secrets was the best I've heard ever, but it was a copy and paste Williams' Sorceror's Stone score.

To comment further on what I've heard, One of my main problems with the adaptation is that it uses (or overuses) a Chorus. Generally, I LOVE Choruses applied to Film scores, but seeing as how Williams didn't use a chorus for Superman in '78 and I felt it was a good call. (It really didn't need one IMO)
To me this is the first time I actually found a chorus disrupting the score.
 
It sounds very harry potter ish. i like it a lot.
 
The more I listen to it, the more I like it. I really like the blend of new to old material, with the updated interpretation. It usually takes me a while to really like a score, but this one is coming on pretty strong. I made a complete MP3 of the previews and listen to the whole track several times.

Can't wait for the full OST.
