well, genuine question: what technically complex cues has he actually written.
Prob pointless to ask but will we ever get any idea of the credits for this. It's a great score!
Joseph Kosinski is directing?
Wow, this is going to be an incredible score, if Tron Legacy and Oblivion are anything to go by. Hopefully it’s not too dependent on ostinatos though.
And supposedly Kosinski is also attached to “The Twilight Zone”, hopefully we can get a Zimmer score for that as well…
The Sierra Leone track Andrew K posted (link below)…I almost wonder if that's how 2010s Zimmer would redo The Lion King. More bass, more minimalist, more Interstellar…but still with an African flare.
Hans !
@Mike(OTM) Not necessarily, I feel like Richard Harvey could easily have delivered something in this vein. That being said, I'm sure the production team probably had their heart set on whatever temps they used for that scene (more likely than not something that Pope either composed or orchestrated) and decided to go directly to the man himself.
It is a bit strange that they would only bring him in to do one scene, as opposed to working alongside Hans and Steve throughout. But it's not unheard of, I guess.
"Love" is an awesome cue and all. I really love it. But I don't understand: could no one at RCP have delivered something like this? Pope was obviously a good pick, but are Zimmer and co. truly incapable of arranging this type of thing?
Who is Conrad Pope ? Is he RCP ?
No way is it better than Lego Batman . This is Megamind basically . Lego Batman has interesting colors and has soul. Wouldn't mind more Conrad Pope collaborations though !
So "Love" was obviously done by Conrad Pope. Never heard anyone from RCP write anything remotely close to that style.
But what about the rest of the score? I can hear a lot of Hans in the theme and the action material (a lot of his action riffs and stylings from megamind) but not sure which bits Mazzaro did.
