Theres gonna be a score CD. They did this same thing with Spider-Man and Spider-Man 2. When Spider-Man 1 came out I remember being worried when I found out about the soundtrack and how it was full of songs. I was worried that it was gonna be like that in the movie, that it was gonna have wall to wall songs and no musical score to speak of, but my concerns were put to rest when I saw the film and it had no songs at all in it besides the ones in the end credits.
Sometime later they came out with the score cd. The samething happened with Spider-Man 2 and it was at this point that I noticed something.
For Spider-Man 1 there were 2 soundtrack CD's
"Spider-Man: Music From And Inspired By" and " Spider-Man: Original Motion Picture Score"
The same thing happened for Spider-Man 2. In fact I had this whole fiasco at Best Buy with this idiot employee that did not know the diff between the score cd and the song cd. I wanted the score cd of course, but he insisted that I wanted the song cd, I swear he was retarted. He did not even know what a musical film score was, I had to explain it to him and even then he did not get it. Finally I just got fed up and left, I got it that same day at Barnes and Noble.
Anyway for Spider-Man 2 that same thing happened."Spider-Man 2: Music From And Inspired By" and " Spider-Man 2: Original Motion Picture Score"
2 seperate cd's only one of which is the actual soundtrack which is the score cd. None of the songs that are on the "Music from and inspired by" CD for Spider-Man 2 are in the actual movie.
I see the same pattern with Spider-Man 3. If you take a look at the front of the Spider-Man 3 cd that is currently out it says " Music from and inspired by" so it stands to reason that none of the songs are actually going to be in the movie and they will come out with the proper score cd soon.
Dont worry fellow film score fans the movie will have all music score and little to no songs in it. In the scene where PP and Gwen are dancing I imagine that a song will be playing in that part, but thats appropriate and expected.
