And those were by John Ottman who in my opinion the only good thing he gave us were the main theme.Same here! Though it was only used for 2 films (x2 and DOFp).
The only memorable tracks for me in all of the MCU are The Avengers theme by Alan Silvestri, and Into Eternity by Brian Tyler.
I just wish each character had their own theme and that those themes were subtlety spliced into the Avengers films. The only character that has one is Cap and they use it a bit in each Avengers movie. The soundtracks for the first and third Ironman movies are really good but there's no consistency between them.
THIS IS IT.
I couldnt agree with the other videos cus THIS is the real issue, i love Driving with the Top Down and i would kill for it to be the theme throught all the Iron Man movies. Hopefully Marvel takes notice of this.

I don't know if it's that he wasn't available or wasn't up for it...but I mean, why not get Alan Silvestri back for Age of Ultron? I mean I would say he did the best job out of any of the composers for Marvel Studios. He created some great music for Captain America and we got actual scores and motifs for those films and Avengers. Why not bring him back for Age of Ultron?
Instead of Age of Ultron felt like this quasi-score that never really got going.
To be fair though, i dont think this is a Marvel exclusive problem though. I bet if that guy who made that youtube video went around asking people to hum the Nolan Batman movie themes they wouldnt be able to either, or Pirates of The Carribean...or the Raimi Spiderman theme...etc. I think that movie composition has changed so much over the last two decades where iconic themes are just not made anymore.

Just seems like a weird decision when you are already spending so much money on Age of Ultron. How much more would it have cost to get Silvestri again?You can probably thank Perlmutter for why Silvestri didn't come back to do AOU. Apparently Perlmutter had to be a cheapo and hire Tyler to do the music (he agreed to do for it cheap), it backfired though when he still wound having to pay Elfman more money after Tyler breached Marvel's music contract.
Good thing Silvestri's back for Infinity War, maybe Marvel is starting to care about music continuity.
If that's true then that's a stupid reason to not give their composers free reign, to me for any action movie especially I get pumped when the music to it is exciting and riveting, without an impactful score or a triumphant "hero" theme then the movie just doesn't click for me.I almost wonder if Marvel has a mandate that their composers are not allowed to go too creative with their sound for fear that the score will overshadow the scenes the score is used in.
