Given how iconic these characters are, I’d expected an equally iconic theme to match, but with each film, I always leave the theater underwhelmed by the score. Some may argue that this is exactly what a film score is supposed to do, but in some ways, I feel a score should stand out to some degree in that it should elevate a film, not disappear into it, especially given that these are also superhero films.

Can Marvel turn things around and start churning out more memorable scores? At this point in the game, if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it. They’ve managed to do incredibly well with the approach they’ve taken, and it’d be foolish of me to think I could do a better job. Regardless, Mothersbaugh has done a great job with many films in the past, and I’m sure he’ll do a bang-up job with this new Marvel flick.

What do you think of Mothersbaugh taking on the job, and what do you think of Marvel scores as a whole? Do they stand out to you, and if not, is that as it should be? Let us know your thoughts down in the comments below!
