Brian Tyler is back! - Page 2

The score in film 1 was a little flat at times, and a little too noticeable at times. That said, there were some great moments. I love the TMNT March and the Foot Clan tracks. For me it was fine. I've got no issue with him returning for film 2.

Have you heard "Under the Red Hood!?" That is MINDBLOWINGLY good.

I can't say I have.. I own the movie so I'll have to check it out!

I think its cool

I like consistent music tracks so the new one will have a slightly similar flavor!

If he did the score in the style of Buck Buck, I'd be a lot happier.

Also, less choir. TMNT doesn't seem like it needs all of that choir. His music contrasted with the tone of the film so much. When the situation was light, he'd have dark music, and vise versa. It didn't work.

That's all true, & you know what might be partially at fault, to be fair? The trainwreck editing/reshoots situation. He scored a film that had mutated foot soldiers, a Karai/April fight scene, ritualistic suicide, big battles, April & Raph sneaking around in Times Square, etc. not exactly what the final product was. Or at least I assume that's the case... I dunno the process all too well.

I'm not sure, but I'm relatively positive film composers only compose once they see the "final" draft of the movie. Like, King Kong changed composers a week before the film was released.

Well if that's the case, then no excuses!

The main fault with Brian Tyler was that he wrote the entire score before they even started filming the movie. He had nothing to go on other than what he thought a Ninja Turtles movie should sound like. And holy crap, did he think wrong.

*Powder* · 05-08-2015, 07:33 PM

That's super stupid, if true. No wonder it did nothing for most of us.

*MrTMNT2012* · 05-08-2015, 07:43 PM

Hell yes! One of my favourite soundtracks of all time!

Good to see he's back.

Awww, yeah! That score is great!

It might fit the turtles pretty well, too.

TDKR's score is fantastic.

Do we know this? Because it's pretty much never done that way.

Yeah. He said it himself in the Blu Ray extras.

Reminds me of how similar the Superman The Movie, and MOTU movie themes are.

Though, a better comparison would how similar the S:TM theme is to the Indiana Jones theme (both by John Williams).
