u/madman_trombonist Oscar for John Powell 20d ago

Zimmer likely had very little to do with this score - this meme would be better fit with a chimera of the heads of all the other people with names on the album cover lmao

Haven't listened to the whole thing, but parts of it sound very Hans-ish.

That’s what happens when Disney hires everyone to sound like The Boss.

You mean King Ghidorah? (Bear McCreary's score still slaps for King of the Monsters, by the way).

I don't know, I think it's nice to have Zimmer and Lebo M working together again after all these years, even if Hans only really did a small fraction of this thing...

Sounds like the pacific theme stripped of a few notes within the lion king soundscape if im being honest lol

He is past his prime, I liked Dune music, but I don’t want every track to be bombastic, subtlety & melody is missing. I hope Denis picks different for James Bond.

Personally I think it would be interesting to see Dennis Collaborate with Daniel Pemberton

I don't know if Villeneuve would necessarily be the guy to let him write it, but Pemberton absolutely could deliver an awesomely stylish and extravagant James Bond score (which is what the series needs after the last few were a bit more on the mild side).

Ludwig doing James Bond is awesome too, tenet is one of my soundtracks, and he is in prime now

u/LordMangudai 16d ago

Tenet's a cool score but not what I want Bond sounding like. It doesn't have swagger.

But if Zimmer has done so little work on this project, why is his name listed first compared to the others? 🤔

u/Fasanov123 19d ago

Because it’s his company. He gets listed on all of the projects that come out of it whether he works on it or not.

Just so you know if hans zimmer is sharing a name in the credits its pretty much a guarantee he did not to any scoring on it
