I would like to address that one barb about Zimmer stealing off Morricone for Sherlock Holmes. Yor I must remind you that your beloved Goldsmith took a crap load of inspiration from Stravinsky, Bartok, Varese, even Alex North. No film composer past or present is wholly original. Herrmann would be the closest thing to truly distinctive stylistically.

Too bad the guy who wrote that put YOR on his ignore list. This would teach him!

YOR might and honorable hunter from the future. He does not hate Hanzimmer. He just despises it.

I do not hate Zimmer at all. I do believe he is a fantastic composer, able to do legendary work. But I don´t like and despise his factory work, basically plastering the market for blockbuster action during the last two decades. I also have the feeling that he is rarely trying hard enough these days, as if he´s content giving the sonic wallpaper that one expects from him. That´s why I was so pleasantly surprised that the score snippet from the MAN OF STEEL trailer sounded different from his usual stuff. I´m looking forward to this score and (as always) hoping for Zimmer to get back to his earlier top form. (REGARDING HENRY, PACIFIC HEIGHTS and BACKDRAFT are my favorite Zimmer scores, and I do like his DARK KNIGHT-trilogy (although there he seems to have been inspired by James Newton Howard to do something better than usual).)

Right, because "Rainman" and "Driving Miss Daisy" sound so similar to "The Da Vinci Code" and "King Arthur". YOR is talking about all his action scores. They are all the same. Even YOR could do a score for movies like "Rainam" or "Driving Miss Daisy" and they would be better than Zimmer's! Geez...the guy can't even spell. What on earth is he on?

Whether you like the score or not, it's hard not to admit that Crimson Tide is a legendary score. Crimson Tide, legendary???
