DC Films The DC Studios News and Discussion Thread

That theme is fantastic, but I have this nagging feeling that if Gal stuck around and played a reinvented take on the character, they'd just make a new theme for her.

Personally, I'd prefer they didn't, but since Gunn and Safran are picking and choosing what remains and what doesn't, if Gal remained in the role, I imagine they'd get a different composer for a new theme since Gunn's building a new universe...that happens to include a chunk of actors and characters he specifically has worked with, but I guess them's the breaks when you're the DC Studios co-head.

Tbh they hardly used it outside of BvS, ZSJL, and WW. It was totally watered-down in WW84. But pound for pound it's THE best superhero theme EASILY. So naturally it's probably going to go.

Amazing.

 

[J.Drangal]

Before BvS release, when they dropped the "Is she with you?" track, I honestly thought this theme was for Doomsday.
Despite the title, it was a no-brainer for me. It just sounded very menacing, crazy, apocalyptic, with rough textures like... well, a horrible beast on a rampage.

I still accept it for Wonder Woman no problem, but it also very quickly became some sort of a meme with my friends. I don't know, it always sounded a little bit cheesy to us, even in the way it was sometimes utilized (but not as much as that "ancient chant" gimmick Junkie XL used at every ****ing frame with the character in the Snyder Cut).

Yeah, I won't miss it.

 

[Madam-Shogun]

It was a good blood pumping theme, I'll miss it. None of the other superhero themes did anything for me tbh.

 

[Blade Hoarder]

I will miss the ancient lamentation tune. It was so sparsely used in the Zack cut.

 

[Mani-Man]

You know what i wont miss? The god damn Yodeling whenever WW showed up in ZSJL.

 

[titansupes]

The theme itself is fun, but it's so very limited and stands out like a sore thumb in WW and WW84 compared to the rest of the music in those movies.

My preferred WW theme is the “Truth” one Zimmer came up with for WW84. That one was beautiful, majestic and just stellar. It’s a big part of the reason that score is one of my all-time fave CBM scores. That and the Themyscira one.

I've got big qualms with WW84 but Zimmer's score for that movie is FAN-****ing--tastic. I've had it in constant rotation since. "Open Road" just gets my adrenaline going every time.

 

[FunkMiller]

Arguably the two best things to come out of the entire DCEU thus far are Wonder Woman's theme and Superman's theme. Zimmer has been the MVP for that company for decades.

"What are you going to do when you're not saving the world," is one of my favorite pieces of music ever. The sad thing about Superman's theme though is that it was never used to its potential. We never got that big triumphant moment in any of Henry's movies where that theme was used in all its glory.

I’m still mad that piece only ever properly played over the end credits. What a waste.

 

[Sawyer]

Drag them, James.

 

[Scarlet Spider]

Gunn taking down the Snyder Bros. one at a time.

 

[Arachnerd]

Certain people are gonna have a field day with this, forgetting that these two have worked together before and are on good terms.

 

[Boom]

They'll just move the goalposts and whip up some other conspiracy.

"Of course Gunn has to say that."
"NDAs."
"Snyder said never give up hope."

Yadda yadda yadda.

 

[chintai80]

snyderbros are obnoxious. to hell with them.

if there was a small window of time to continue the snyderverse, it has already passed.

it came with too much baggage.

time to move on.

 

[kguillou]

I am loving Gunn being in charge more and more each day.

 

[Detective Conan]

 

[chintai80]

the movie about nike and air jordans that ben affleck directed for amazon looks good, based on the trailer.

 

[FunkMiller]

Ugh, if true. Affleck's track record clearly indicates he's not a particularly great person to put in any creative control of a mainstream superhero franchise.

Don't worry, he won't be there to direct but will play Batman a third "last time".

 

[AndrewGilkison]

Just give Affleck The Authority movie to direct.

 

[SwordOfMorning]

Affleck has made some great movies but he has exhibited clear and consistent diminishing returns, in my opinion.

 

[kguillou]

Yeah Ben was on a hot streak for a while with The Town, Argo, Gone Girl but then around the time of BvS/ Live By Night he's been very hot and cold with the movies he directs and stars in.
