The Amazing Spider-Man 2 The Hans Zimmer Score thread - Part 2

[SpideyK]

Is you need me a Gwen/Peter scene?

A Peter/Harry scene, actually.

 

[LizardMan07]

You'd think I'd know that after 3 viewings! Thanks

 

[matt47]

Naa
It's

Spoiler

when Peter and Harry meet again.

When Peter meets Harry for the first time in years.

I can't agree with people who say there's no bittersweet longing in TASM2's soundtrack. 'I Choose You', 'We're Best Friends', 'Ground Rules', 'I'm Moving to England', 'You're My Boy' and 'The Rest of My Life' all have that content.

People who like the score simply like the score.

 

[LizardMan07]

The rest of my life is so damn powerful when you picture the scene it accompanied, the score, combined with the images alone, conveyed such a powerful message with not one word of dialogue at all.

The score was amazing and the movie only enhanced it, I'm just at a loss as to why people did not enjoy it more

WOOO swag, CD came in the mail today.

 

[SpideyK]

WOOO swag, CD came in the mail today.

Which edition?

 

[A Necessary Evil]

Deluxe! I saw the single disc in stores, but my B&N didn't have the 2CD version in stock.

I got it in 3 days time, from the day I ordered it (22nd, the day it released) t:

 

[A Necessary Evil]

Also, the actual packaging is freakin' huge! Lol

Niiiice. I got the Deluxe version, too. t:

So... What are your overall thoughts on the OST, then?

 

[UltimateWebhead]

Just a quick mention, I really dug this score! I've only had a chance to listen to it once but I think I like this more than what I had originally thought or was expecting. I'll need another listen or two before it fully sinks in, but the tracks that stuck out on the first go-round are:

Ground Rules
Look at Me
You Need Me
I'm Moving to England
I'm Goblin
Let her Go
You're My Boy
I Need to Know
You're That Spider Guy
I Chose You
Cold War

edit: I'm still not a fan of the main theme. But I like the alternate usage of that theme in tracks like You're That Spider Guy.

Glad to see that you like it, given how skeptical you were at first.

Theme is eeehh, but I like the triumphant use of it in "Still crazy". The score as a whole, I really like it, it has a ton of great music. Not as good as his TDKT work, and It's definitely my least favorite Spidey score. I truly don't care for the songs, however. Also not a fan that the CD is crossfaded, so I can't listen to a singular track without an abrupt ending.

I'm not much of a Zimmer fan so I was kinda 'blah' when I heard he was composing this score but so far I'm liking the majority of the tracks. There's a couple that I didn't like including the main theme but the tracks I mentioned were surprisingly good.

I see...

And yeah, I remember you saying you didn't like the crossfading. I'm pretty neutral about it - not sure if I like it or dislike it, yet.

What do you think about the use of the main theme at the end of Cold War, though? Personally, I think it's way better than I'm Spider-Man

 

[SM71]

is The Neighbourhood song "Honest" in the movie or the credits? Or just on the OST. I really dig it

It's pretty cool, but the best use of it is the ending to Still Crazy, imo. Oh yeah, that's something else I'm not fond of - the use of SFX in the beginning of that cue.

Alright.

And yes, the use of it in Still Crazy is indeed damn cool, and unique in a good way.

I'm a little annoyed by the added SFX in I'm Spider-Man, as well. The website version of the track is better in literally every way.

Whaaaaat is there an alternate or something on the site?

Got it on iTunes a while ago. It's a bit radio but I enjoy it.

Just bought the deluxe OST today at Best Buy. Probably not gonna bump it until I see the movie Sunday though haha.

I am really hoping they return for ASM3, this score and the MoS have been in constant replay for me. I listen to this score religiously now at the gym such a great motivator.

Same dude, nearly a year later and I still listen to MoS soundtrack nearly everyday.

 

[spider-neil]

Zimmer did an incredible job on MoS.
The opening of 'I am Spider-Man' actually gives me goose bumps

 

[matt47]

Does anyone know the song that plays when spidey is chasing the truck at the start?
