In my mind, this has always been the Batman theme. Nothing else ever came even close. Every part of this music screams Batman, from start to finish. From the stealthy style he has, to the anger he feels towards villains and generic bad guys, to the part where the chords change to a major key, symbolizing him overcoming the desire to simply end their lives as Chill did his parents, which would obviously be the easier part, to 2:55 mark which to me, is the watch the fuck out bad guys music which unfortunately in this rendition only continues for 5 seconds or so. TLDR; This is THE Batman theme.
@user-vr1nd3ep3s2 жыл бұрын
After 2:55 it feels like the Batman's crusade is ultimately hopeless, he will never stop crime but he can't stop. He's doomed to fight an unwinnable battle for the rest of his life, gaining triumph for only a moment, which is worth it. Because he's the Batman.

@@pennygadget7328 Not to mention Hans Zimmer was uncredited for his work on Mask of the Phantasm too: IIRC he was approached first but recommended Walker, and instead he played the synth (has subtle cues throughout the soundtrack: great example in the early part of The Birth of Batman, when he gets the breakup letter). When *Hans Zimmer* recommends you in his place you know you’re doing well.

And I know this… the enemy will look away, for just a moment, underestimating him for that single fraction of a second too long. And no matter how dark the night… there will be *no* hiding place for evil.”

Hans Zimmer got served - even before he attempted to compose a fitting Batman theme! I mean, he does make it work well with the visuals, but this is just so much better. With great respect, I don't want to say "Go back to Call of Duty scoring, Hans!", he did a great job with the Lion King, but the music was possibly the most epic part of BTAS, in a way which we haven't seen with the recent trilogy.
