Days of Future Past Which music score should they reuse?

[Silvermoth]

I hope they stick with the x2 score. It's so bombastic and beautiful and perfect. I was listening to it before.

What do you think?

 

[Gianakin_]

Well, X2 and TW.

 

[Silvermoth]

I now wish I had included the animated series score in the list of options...

 

[Gianakin_]

Didn't K-Men's theme in X1 pay some kind of tribute to the XTAS theme (which he wrote, too, IIRC)?

 

[Da Games Elite]

I figure an original score with elements from X2 and X:FC. That would be best.

 

[BlackFox]

IT will be a new score.

 

[Still Wynning]

I imagine they will go with mainly themes from X2 and First Class, with maybe a few themes from some of the other films peppered throughout here or there.

 

[psylockolussus]

IMO, have a new score.

 

[GuestStar2004]

i'd like them to big magnetos score from XFC. it was great

 

[X-Maniac]

None. I want a new score.

 

[marvelrobbins]

John Ottoman will use a new score.With exception of using John WIlliams' themes for superman returns he mostly uses new score for films.

Shuki Levy wrote the X-Men TAS theme, actually.

 

[Gianakin_]

Ah, ok, thanks.

 

[def28]

Mix and match. Mostly new. The FC Magneto theme is all I care about really staying intact.

Really want a better X-theme.

 

[Great Mind(s)]

I hope they reuse a little motif from X2. How many sequels does Ottman do? He switches the themes in sequels? I hope that's not the case. It'd be cool to have some fun continuity in form of music. Like the Star Wars movies...

In another musical aspect, I hope to hear some 70s music here and there. 1973 is the year Pink Floyd's "Time" came out. Since DOFP deals with time travel, it would be cool to have our first scene featuring young bearded and long haired Xavier listening to "Time" while all high and/or drunk sitting in his chair in a dark room or something.

Especially knowing Xavier will be in a dark place after FC and that DOFP will deal with the decisions people make at a young age and what it means for their future. And also the little time they have to make a difference in their lives...

Spoiler

Ticking away the moments
That make up a dull day
Fritter and waste the hours
In an off-hand way

Kicking around on a piece of ground
In your home town
Waiting for someone or something
To show you the way

Tired of lying in the sunshine
Staying home to watch the rain
You are young and life is long
And there is time to kill today

And then the one day you find
Ten years have got behind you
No one told you when to run
You missed the starting gun

(Solo)

And you run and you run
To catch up with the sun
But it's sinking

Racing around
To come up behind you again

The sun is the same
In a relative way
But you're older

Shorter of breath
And one day closer to death

Every year is getting shorter
Never seem to find the time

Plans that either come to naught
Or half a page of scribbled lines

Hanging on in quiet desperation
Is the English way

The time is gone
The song is over
Thought I'd something more to say

Home
Home again
I like to be here
When I can

When I come home
Cold and tired
It's good to warm my bones
Beside the fire

Far away
Across the field
Tolling on the iron bell
Calls the faithful to their knees
To hear the softly spoken magic spell...

 

[By your Command]

A new score of course, that being said, the X2 theme and the Magneto theme from FC should definitely return.

 

[TWayneP]

No other way to go other than entirely new IMO. Since its Ottman we will get similar stylings to X2, but I feel it needs to be a whole new sound. I like that every X-men Movie has been different. If your not going to have a "theme" then they should stay different and diverse just like the subject matter! lol.

 

[Mystique's Leg]

I voted for X-men First Class, but I would rather have new score which consists of a recognisable mix of FC and TLS. Those 2 movies had both an amazing score.

At least 1 scene with this or a reworked version t:

 

[SpideyFan866]

I'd really want this to make a come back. Even if just in a reworked form.

[YT]RV8wN-VX32U[/YT]

Its just so damn epic.

 

[Karelia]

As long as they keep Mag's theme, I'm good.

 

[smallville fan]

It would never happen but I would love to see them give a slight nod or tip of the hat/homage to the 90s TAS theme.

[psylockolussus]

^Agreed!

But I think they should save it for a X-Men 5 film.
