Yeah, the Chinese trailer looks pretty good. This should at least be a decent popcorn flick

Just to point out something here, but Roddenberry MARRIED Barret and they were together for years. I don't cnsider that womanizing at all. Having a relationship with Nichols doen't really qualify either unless every relationship a person has makes them a "womanizer". That is more of a "different girl every week" kind of thing.

Granted the rumors and supposed casting calls and whatnot might be true but it can also be argued that he was at the very least committed to both his marriages in the long run, and besides which, most of the supposed affairs occurred during the sixties and seventies- a time well known for casual dalliances among Hollywood types.

Now I'm terribly disappointed. All that fuss and that's all this is? With not even any of Elfman's old Batman themes?

You're listening to one incidental track, one which has the Williams Superman theme in it. Besides, it's better than almost anything I've heard in both the MCU films and the previous DC movies (excepting MoS). Anyone (including myself) who took his comments to mean that he was returning to his style from thirty years ago was being foolish.
His "Hero" theme though... nah, I can't get behind that at all.

of course its better than the MCU Films most of the MCU Soundtracks were done by Bryan Tyler aka the most generic film scorer in the world

Brian Tyler has his moments ("Can You Dig It?" from IM3 is a highlight) but his music is often big in style and small in substance. In his defense though, film scoring is always a battle on these big pictures, and it is so rare for big sweeping themes to be allowed to develop in a picture. But ultimately he's boring as hell.

I really love his "Rambo" '08 score. Nothing really else, though.

I wish they'd do that to Man of Steel, also.

Awesome! That looks so much better. I have the Bluray version so I doubt there's any update? I'll have to check the digital version now.

Danny Elfman has revealed that Junkie XL’s Batman theme composed for the caped crusader in last year’s Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice will not resurface in the upcoming superhero epic Justice League.

In a new interview with Reporte Indigo, Elfman explained that he will instead bring back the theme he created for Batman (1989) and Batman Returns, going as far to denounce Hans Zimmer’s Batman theme composed for The Dark Knight trilogy and say that Batman has only ever had one theme. But the composer did confirm that Zimmer’s Wonder Woman theme would be making a return as he teased the appearance of John Williams’ Superman theme:

Good, the BvS Zimmer motif was terrible (despite all reports to the contrary, it WAS Zimmer's riff, not Junkie's).

It was Batman's theme in BVS was just loud obnoxious noise.

I am confused. He is saying he IS bringing back his Batman '89 theme? It's not in that bunch of score listed.

I think old Batman's theme will be mixed with some other scores.

Nah, it'll be woven into other tracks as opposed to their being a big "Batman" theme track. Composers usually only write a separate theme track if it's something new, and they're trying to establish how the melody goes, the moods it can work under, etc.
Sadly I don't think it'll play a big part in the score at all, maybe some references if you're really paying attention. But we'll see.
