  - What can I say? I'm a fan of the Zim. The music (like Dark Knight) really gets me. -- nm - HdnAgnda Feb 28, 08:13 1
    - The fun thing with Zimmer's scores is wondering how much of it he actually wrote this time. -- nm - Reagen Feb 28, 08:14
I would say that the score for TSN is almost a character in the movie. - Kim Pine Feb 28, 08:02

  - It's non-traditional, certainly. -- nm - Reagen Feb 28, 08:13
