Thanks for the insight. I didn't realize that. It explains why I see this type of thing so much.

I see. So it's kind of built in to the process that this happens. I suppose it gets on my nerves more when the music is taken from an iconic film to which it was an original score. The fact that a bunch of movies use that one Arcade Fire song, or lean on the same popular hits to gain a little easy emotional currency…

I've had the exact experience. Mansell's RfaD score was just massively abused in the same fashion for the past ten years. I guess the lack of imagination in Hollywood goes all the way down the line from scriptwriters and directors to the places that put together trailers. It doesn't exactly inspire confidence in the…

"Legolas! Get them up! This hills will be swarming with orcs by nightfall!"

"I don't like ambiguous titles like Dinosaurs Vs Aliens. So confusing. What is it all about?"

All I want to know is where can I get the French graphic novels?! Man, *that* looks amazing! I just hope he has a better budget than he had on the Fountain. I loved that movie, but it was seriously claustrophobic in terms of scale.

I can see where you're coming from, but I think we know that it's not going to be anything like an 'artsy' film. I think you've actually got more imagination than these guys. There will be humanoid aliens, from the looks of it. And I'm sure the dinosaurs will act with very human motives.

Otherwise known as "Burrito, jalapeno nachos, and two pints of lager."

Ugh. Has creativity completely gone extinct? How many 'put two existing genre things together' movies, books, comics, etc. do we have to see before we get something that's actually creative.
