After days without writting here my name is still in this post....
IM more critic with zimmer than other people with his favourites composer(all the people who hardly c
I say all the "Bad things" about zimmer.And i said this score is really a dissapointment.And Zimmer vision of this score is totally wrong.I was very angry with zimmer when i heard this score for the first time....and now im just waiting for zimmer,his tunes,his dramatic touch without any aditional composers and with real orchestra.
Zimmer has a lot of mistakes,but his tunes and his dramatic peaks make me feel like any other composer make me feel(excep jerry golsmith).
IM NOT A ZIMMER FANATIC.
