Way too many to list! I mean, in the Marvel Universe alone, the Iron Man movies are all scored by different composers. Same goes for Thor, Avengers 1/2, Captain America 1/2. Star Trek and the Alien series went from Goldsmith on 1 to Horner on 2; there's been a different composer for each of the Alien movies, to boot (Goldsmith, Horner, Goldenthal, Frizzell, Streitenfeld, Kurzel). The list goes on and on.

Oh, golly. More the norm than the exception. Star Trek: the Motion Picture and STII: Wrath of Khan, for instance. Then Horner did 3, followed by Rosenman, then back to Goldsmith, then Eidelman and then back to Goldsmith, with Dennis McCarthy and then back to Goldsmith, and those were then all followed by Giacchino. Robocop and Robocop II. The Lara Croft films. The whole Twilight saga, for lack of a better word. Amazing Spider-Man and TASM2. Jaws 2 and Jaws 3. (2 at least by Williams) Harry Potter films had what, five composers between eight films? James Bond films have had umpteen composers. The Marvel films: Iron Man 1-2-3 had three different composers; Captain America had two; Thor had three; Avengers have had three. Mission: Impossible has gone through six including a rejected score.

Franz Waxman scored The Robe’s sequel Demetrius and the Gladiators, making ample use of Alfred Newman’s score for its predecessor.

Using IMDb... The original Spider-Man films were all by Elfman except that one by Christopher Young. The Die Hard films had to get a new composer since Kamen passed away. Sadly it was Beltrami. On that same note... Mad Max got JunkieXL. One Rocky film was of course not by Conti (not counting the spin-off series Creed). Rambo went from Goldsmith to Brian Tyler. Of course the Terminaor films list Brad Fiedel., who decided living and surfing on Mexico was what he wanted to do. Robocop had a brief lull with Rosenman, featuring "Rrrroooooooobbbooocop!". The X-Men films never did settle on one composer. The Fast and Furious film eventually settles on Brian Tyler. The xXx films couldn't settle on one composer either. Final Destination had to get a new composer after Shirley Walker reached her final destination. Darkman went from Elfman to Randy Miller. The Burton-verse Batman films of course changed composers. It also gave us bat-nipples. The Blade films went threw composers and a rejected score. Jurassic Park also has gone through three composers so far. Ghostbusters has gone through two composers. If this new kid-boot is in the same verse as the original two, then we'll have a third composer. Beverly Hills Cop had a good and still unreleased score to the third film by Nile Rogers. The Scary Movie films have ha a score composer roster and a rejected score. The Anaconda films/directed-to-DVD sequels have had multiple composers. I know, you're like, "They made more than two of these???" Behind Enemy Lines has had a different composer on each and a rejected score. Hollow Man had a hollow sequel with a different composer. Ice Age, the animated films that wont' stop, has not stopped having different composers. The Lion King sequels have had a circle of composers. As well as a bunch of other Disney sequels to films (so far, Tinkerbell is the only one I know of, off hand, to have the same composer on all). The Bourne Identify has gone through two or three composers as well as a partially recorded and not used score to the first film by Burwell. And, if "Men in Black: International" counts as a sequel (perhaps it's more of a spinoff), then it's gone to Chris P. Bacon (with Elfman on board, but I suspect he's doing the opening/closing and providing a new theme or two). Already noted by other users: Alien, Star Trek, Mission: Impossible, Superman. Bored now. Plenty more to list though.

COTTON COMES TO HARLEM (Galt MacDermot) / COME BACK CHARLESTON BLUE (Donny Hathaway) Bob, id love to see these two johnson/jones films again. Loved em first time around but was teenager. They never show this stuff on uk tv anymore. I saw Charleston on tv in the 70s and then got to see Cotton in an afternoon double bill with a jim brown blaxploitation film in east London. There was only about 15 people in the cinema and I was the only white guy in the audience! I got some looks but i was pleased id got to see Cotton. *edit i looked it up the jim brown film was Three the Hard Way.

Way too many to list! I mean, in the Marvel Universe alone, the Iron Man movies are all scored by different composers. Same goes for Thor, Avengers 1/2, Captain America 1/2. I would say that such diffusion hurt Marvel more than helped. I saw an article which opined that for the regular moviegoer there really aren't that many identifiable themes in the MCU outside of the Avengers and Silvestri's excellent CA ode to Copland. Compare that to what Zimmer did with Dark Knight....even taking over on Dark Knight Rises, which in hindsight might in some ways be even more representive of that DK sound than the eponymous score. Zimmer's musical personality is what really drove that action-part of the scores forward and was by far the most impactful variable out of all the music scored for that film imo. The closest the MCU comes to that kind of powerful musical personality is probably Silvestri (which is one of the reasons I was somewhat cheered when I heard he'd be scoring IW). Now, some of this was written at a distance, as I happen to really like the scores to Dark World, First Avenger, Avengers, Age Of Ultron, Iron Man 3. I wouldn't trade them for Man of Steel or Dark Knight though. And I don't even like Zimmer that much beyond those scores and probably Interstellar.

ESCAPE TO WITCH MOUNTAIN (Johnny Mandel) / RETURN FROM WITCH MOUNTAIN (Lalo Schifrin) BEYOND WITCH MOUNTAIN (George Duning) / ESCAPE TO WITCH MOUNTAIN (1995) (Richard Marvin) / RACE TO WITCH MOUNTAIN (Trevor Rabin) I guess the latter two are remakes, but the Duning score shouldn't be forgotten at least! (Please, Intrada!) One I'm surprised no one has brought up because it's rather funny: A MAN CALLED HORSE (Leonard Rosenman) / RETURN OF A MAN CALLED HORSE (Laurence Rosenthal) I don't care what anyone involved says; I'm POSITIVE that somebody goofed and got in touch with the wrong guy because of the name similarity.
