This is a continuation thread, the old thread is [split]492489[/split]
The score for ASM 2 is, without exaggeration, probably the worst score I've ever heard for a superhero film.
Unlike the Raimi films, you can actually hum it which is bonus points as far as I'm concerned.
I love the Rami main theme's and the introduction music in the opening credits but the rest of the music in the movies is just average where on the other hand the music main theme in amazing Spider-Man 2 is so so but the rest of the movie has epic music!
Most definitely. The worst track was Electro's "He lied to me...he shot at me...".
*Cringe*
I can't believe Hans Zimmer churned out that crap.
I can hum the Raimi movies score easily. I couldn't hum the ASM 2 score if my life depended on it.
To be fair: the only bits of the ASM 2 score that I can recall are the main theme I just posted (which is obviously heard several times throughout the film) and several of the songs involving Electro. So maybe that's not enough to crown it the worst superhero score I've ever heard (I can't recall any songs from FFINO), but it's certainly a contender.
I really don't know how people can say with a straight face that this is not epic.

Both TASM themes were specifically composed to be easy to hum.
While I have no problem humming the Raimi theme (or any theme) I have a hard time believing you couldn't hum TASM2's theme if your life depended on it
As far as we know. it did.And we all know that when something is intended to be specific, it always succeeds.
Your belief in that fact is neither desired nor required, harry. But thanks for caring.
As far as we know. it did.
I mean, I've seen people say they liked it. I myself don't like the main theme as it sounds like an Olympics event or elevator music you'd hear in a mall. They should've kept the Hero's theme from TASM1! (it's hummable though imo) But the rest of the score is wonderful. People appreciated what Zimmer & the Magnificent Six did with the score.. I'm Goblin, Still Crazy, Sum Total, You're that Spider Guy, Let her go, Harry's suite (almost makes me cry) Electro's suite (gives me chills), I'm Electro, Special Projects, There he is (one of my favorites) etc all amazing.*Splutter of laughter*
Yeah, you always hear praises heaped on the score for this movie.
The only thing B&R killed was the Batman franchise. Just like TASM 2 did to Spidey. Only Spidey's rescue came a lot sooner than Batman's did thankfully.
The Raimi score is iconic and imaginative. This is the K-mart knockoff.

Btw, I liked Electro's suite. I didn't like the dubstep parts but the idea of hearing the villain's deranged thoughts in his theme is pretty inspired imo.
Batman & Robin killed the CBM genre...

It is a myth that Batman & Robin killed the genre. Blade came out the very next year and X-Men within three.
He wasn't the only composer for that movie, there were six more, including the composer for Mad Max Fury Road and Deadpool.Most definitely. The worst track was Electro's "He lied to me...he shot at me...".

Thinking about it, I agree with this statement. LOL.lol Everytime I hear it, I think of a newscast theme.
Seriously, just say something like "This is NBC12 NIGHTLY NEWS" over it, and yeah. Newscast.
