Surprised there isnt a thread for this already.

I believe it was confirmed a few months ago that Rupert Gregson-Williams,who composed the score for the hugely successful DCEU film Wonder Woman is returning to score the first standalone film for Aquaman.I have to say im really looking forward to this as Williams did a terrific job on Wonder Woman.

Jason Momoas Aquaman was one of the standout characters in Justice League and his solo film is shaping up really well.The director James Wan made one of the best Fast And Furious movies with the seventh instalment of that franchise and the trailers looking good!



Why is it so bloody hard to post youtube videos here?

My bad.Surprised there isnt a lot of discussion over it given how high profile the film is right now.

Well, the high profile seems to be amongst a minority of people, it seems. That won't reflect box office though (people will see any kind of shit it seems).

Hmm..someones salty today!

Aquaman pretty much won comic con with that trailer and the film is looking great.It has a great director,terrific cast and the fx look amazing! It should be a truly unique superhero film in that the majority of it takes place underwater.And of course Gregson Williams has already hit out of the park for DC already with Wonder Woman.

Not directed at you, in case you thought that. The general movie goer, who plops down hard-earned cash that results in more shitty Saw films, for example, or the seemingly endless barrage of Fast and Furious sequels.

I dont see what the Saw films have to do with Aquaman.As for Fast And Furious,i think thats a terrific action franchise which has certainly put the last few Bonds to shame.

It seems that you are not looking forward to Aquaman.Thats fair enough but hey,it may actually turn out to be great! And the general public puts down cash at the box office for great films too!

That's a nice way to phrase it; my actual written out feelings on it would be less than nice. ;-)

Its a big budget superhero film with a quality director and cast.It got even more high profile with the release of the trailer and looks set to be one of the major releases of the christmas holiday season at the end of the year.

If thats not high profile i dont know what is.

Thanks, Heard of Harry never knew their related, 1st time, I listened to Kingdom of Heaven it blew me away how big it was, the orchestration of instruments were rich - so easy going sometimes thunderous but pretty - it also had some lovely emotional moments of romance.

Its set in the underwater city of Atlantis.Did you expect them to go to the bottom of the ocean and build Atlantis? Yes there is going to be CGI,just like EVERY SINGLE SUPERHERO MOVIE!

And DC make terrific films.Batman V Superman Ultimate Edition is my favourite superhero movie of the decade so far.

I gotta admit, I am really digging the electronic-orchestral hybrid score for AQUAMAN. The synths at times have a neat early 80's vibe, almost sounding like a Donna Summer song in that opening track "Arthur"! But the rising melody for Aquaman is really catchy and the album isn't overlong, making it an enjoyable listen.
