Pick a song for the TMNT movie soundtrack

[Puddinpop]

Pick a song that you would love to hear on the soundtrack for this new movie. What songs would you like to hear in the back round during the fight sequences? Post as many as you'd like.

For me.. I'd like to hear " Use your fist and not your mouth " while watching the Foot get their asses kicked.

Hmm, relly gotta think here this movie is waaay out of my style so gotta really reach for something that would work. can't beat this so i ain't gonna try...

There are a lot of songs and artists that come to mind when I think about music in a film, but in all honesty I don't want there to be any actual "song" songs during the movie like most action and any other type of movies. It sounds very corny and amateur most of the time when common pop culture songs are playing in the background, even during action scenes. I think it would be better if this movie took a more MATURE Nolan Batman Trilogy and Man of Steel route, and played actual musical composition scores during every scene, when needed. It makes the movie less generic in a way, and gives it a little more seriousness. Not that typical "try to make it fun while watching" approach. The Batman trilogy and Man of Steel music was so perfectly executed. They used musical compositions that sounded so UPLIFTING and dramatic. It didn't need any radio music, and even avoided the use of it in the actual movie. The reason I say they should have musical scores like Batman and Man of Steel is because there are movies that have just musical scores playing and it sounds very bad. Wolverine for example, during the fight at the end with Viper, the music sounded very cheesy. It did sound dramatic, but it was very early 90's sounding, and I could not help but notice how poorly done it was. If it hits that resonance like Man of Steel and Nolan's Batman it seriously will bring this movie into a better feel. I've heard Brian Tyler's scores and I'm not that impressed. Hopefully he gives it that slight, ethnic Japanese feel. He has a more typical super-hero type of feel in my opinion. I really believe that if musical compositions are done throughout the whole movie and are reminiscent of Man of Steel and Batman (dramatic and especially UPLIFTING) then it can bring the whole experience to a new, mature level.


p.s- I'm not talking about the script: I know we're not getting the Nolan route in this movie. I'm talking about the mature, uplifting musical composition aspect that the Nolan Batman and the Man of Steel movie had.

I agree.. I think it was the music that made Nolans batman films feel so epic. It was constant. Those strings.. But sometimes I like hearing a good song drop in during a fight scene or at the end of the movie. I think we will get musical composition in this film for sure. From Mr. Brian Tyler. I'm looking forward to it. He's a pretty talented guy

I just love rock, and I wish more movies would use it. It's probably why I love Ironman, he used a bunch of it in his film. But, I'd love to hear more with TMNT. I'm not too sure why the creators decided to associate the TMNT with rap only, when various music across the board could work.

Watchmen did that

Yeah, I'd prefer just a score more than soundtrack myself. Can't think of any songs I'd particularly want in the film.

[Anton Chigurh]

I want only scores no songs with lyrics, it's less emotional with friggin linkin park playing in the back ground, unghh....

[ThatMarvelousGuy]

TURTLE Power lol

All I care about is getting a beautifully created set of scores for an OST for this film. Hopefully Brian Tyler can deliver. I could care less about putting other mainstream artists on a TMNT soundtrack. Honestly, what made watching the Transformers movies a "lesser" experience for me was hearing those annoying pop/rock songs Bay decided to put in. Steve Jablonsky's scores were more than enough to hear during the movie. I honestly just want to hear beautifully composed scores during this new film. Adding mainstream artists to a new TMNT soundtrack is fine with me, just keep them out of the actual movie. That's just my opinion anyway.

ok then lets put it this way If TMNT were to have a Sound track CD that isn't featured in the movie as part of the score(except maybe credits cuz that doesn't really matter) which "mainstream" song would you want to hear on that CD

I dont think there is very much debating the Composer for this movie is talented and should do a fantastic job, But what else would you hear and associate with turtles?
