I hope they bring ottoman back. I love his music and it's become the quintessional theme for the xmen now which they really needed.

What do you think? Would you prefer a new composer and if so, who?
 
Just hope they bring back the full Magneto theme from first class.
 
If Singer directs again which Is likely it will be Ottoman composing.

I hate that he uses the same people, I wish he would dump Louise Mingenbach as the costume designer and bring back Henry Jackman as the composer.
 
Director's often use same crew. Besides it makes some constantsy in films.

I quite agree with you. It's interesting, at this point Ottman is the only composer to revisit the X-Men film franchise. Obviously his relationship with Singer is a big part of that, but what I really like about Ottman besides his great skills as a composer and editor is his willingness to incorporate hints of themes by previous composers of the franchise. In DOFP I've heard bits of Kamen and Jackman especially. So definitely, stick with Ottman.
 
Hire John Ottman again!

I like the music they used for the post-credits scene.
 
I totally agree

I think I'm the only one that dislikes Henry Jackman's work on First Class. I mean, he is an OK composer, but I didn't enjoy at all the rock vibe.

I am all for Ottoman coming back if it brings his awesome X-Men theme back.

But please use Jackman's theme for Magneto. It is too good, and was sorely missed during Magneto's big display moments on the plane, breaking (again) into the Pentagon, and when he lifts the stadium. It would have made those moments even more epic.
 
Yeah I dont get why magnetos theme was at the very start when kitty sent bishop back and then not again
