Sorry if you thought I was being confrontational, but I guess the point I'm trying to get at is that it's too bad you seem to have decided that THE AVENGERS will be a lousy score in advance because it may or may not match what you think the music should be before you've even seen the film. I think Silvestri did a good job on CAPTAIN AMERICA (and on on G.I. JOE too, although the film is staggeringly awful), and I don't really understand how it can be described as inadequate for the film it is heard in. Is it possible that he won't take the approach you've prescribed on AVENGERS and still turn in a decent score? Maybe we should both see / hear it first and then evaluate how he did?
And as a tangent, like most people here, I love the Indy scores, but I think we can agree that few composers are on the level that John Williams was in the early 80s. You're right that CAPTAIN AMERICA isn't INDY, just as Joe Johnson isn't Spielberg, and, for all his talent, Silvestri isn't Williams. I don't really think he's trying to be, though: I think that like most composers, he's trying to come up with music that works for the movie, and most of the time, he seems to do it well.
Oh I'm looking forward to the score but I have a feeling it's going to be another GIJOE and A team (which I liked more than GIJOE). His CA:TFA score was good but nothing special, imo. I know that's asking for too much to write something in the scale of "Raiders" but still. I mean if it followed that playbook I think I would've liked it a lot more. His action scores are getting too bombastic and hardly leaving an impression on me. It's nowhere in the same league as his action writing in the 80s and 90s. Hopefully The Avengers will be some of his best work but I was hoping the same thing for his CA:TFA score around this time last year. I am going to wait and see the movie.

I think Silvestri should take one note from each one of these characters themes and make a really kick-ass two-note theme!
Hahahahahaha

unsurprising... not outstanding or inventive...
Glad you're keeping an open mind, based on a bunch of 30 second clips!

A much underated score in my opinion but then that is pretty obvious why that might be, the movie was a bomb at the B.O, Right?
