Wow, this score is such a mess, both in film and out. Even moreso than The Lone Ranger. Between the temp tracks and the straight rip offs (Rango Returns which is basically "Parlay" which itself was inspired by Morricone) there is almost nothing original here. That being said, It's still incredibly fun to listen to. The massive amount of co-composers definitely helps.
Also Hybrid, slightly off-topic but did Zimmer have a bad experience on The Lone Ranger? I remember hearing something about that, but wasn't entirely sure (and I honestly love that score)

Lol! I personally didn't find the film that bad, but I guess the production must've been a different story....

That's a pity because that movie was far from bad. Much better than most of the recent blockbusters in my opinion. Really nothing to be ashamed of.
Something that kinda confuses me: does Hans actually sit down and write the cues WITH people like Geoff Zanelli, or does he just kinda give a layout of the cue and then the other guy goes off and does it on his own?
Might anyone be able to track down the slate numbers for this set? I already have some of them from when that set of demos surfaced a while back, but there's still a good amount missing.
Did someone notice Lorne putting a Crysis 2 theme right in the middle of it ? :P

Not yet. Damnit, too many leaks recently, plus exams, equals not enough time to listen to all these goodies (but apparently enough time to talk about them on the Internet...uhh...)
What cue? :p

Rodents Rise !
BTW Lorne didn't do many cues on it, but surely "I'm Going Back" is one of my fav' of the entire score... :)

Haha, at first I was trying to find the Prophet's theme (wondering how the hell did I manage to miss that one). Then I discovered it's actualy the Alien's theme. :-) It's a great cue (... too bad this theme is missing from both Rango's and Crysis' OSTs).
The Elfman temp cue from The Kingdom was kept in the final film cause HZ & Gore couldn't come up with anything better without just being a poor ripoff. Danny's track was perfect, so they decided to keep it.
Atli Örvarsson & his assistant Dave Fleming have an official "arranger" & "tech advisor" credit, but it's likely they've done nothing on it. Atli started working on it but on his very first cues left the project to do another score. So unless a few arrangements he did were kept, Atli was not involved... But still got credited !
OK instead of Luring In Jake, I got a track called Here It Comes that runs 5:25. And a track called The Other Side, which isn't on here. What gives? Why do leaked scores never match the tracklists here? How do we know what's what?

And We Ride #2 Alternate is like 50 seconds, not 4 mins... *sigh*

Remember, Preacher, this is not the complete score. It's expanded. That should tell you immediately that some music will be missing. Remember, too, that even if a score is listed as "complete", it might STILL have music missing (such as The Dark Knight Rises).

I understand, but the recent leak has different tracks to this edition. One would think they would be the same.

The We Ride length was my bad (hey, try typing this whole stuff in a row without making a typo, TRY ! :P) !
The Other Side, if you have any little knowledge or interest in Hans Zimmer, you'd just notice it's a source cue taken from The Weatherman.

Thanks for that - I don't know the Weatherman score. What about Here It Comes/It's A Miracle? Are they the same?
