Hack and one-trick pony imply it

I'm confused...how does Zimmer not get recognized as an actual composer in the musical community. He's one of the biggest names, he's written some damn good music on occasion, he's got an oscar (a terrible measuring stick, but still)...I could go on but each point would get weaker, but you get the idea.

It would be interesting to see these criticisms though. Maybe Goldsmith's mad cuz he was never really "popular" despite his excellence yet Hans gets there with weaker music in some cases. Maybe Debney's mad cuz he never hit it big. I don't know and don't want to keep speculating.
