What did they use during Thors vision[\spoiler]? I don't think it's on the album at all.

I've been listening to the album in the correct story order (the 24 tracks I posted above), and I find it makes the album much more enjoyable and cohesive in my opinion. The random ordering of the tracks (and putting in tracks that do not appear in the film) on the album release makes it feel like a jumbled mess of pieces that do not belong together somehow. Still have to figure out where "Fighting Back", "Keys to the Past" and "Nothing Lasts Forever" should be placed, or if they appear in the film at all.

IS IT TOO SOON TO TELL ME HOW AGENT Colson survived?

After listening to a few samples on iTunes, I'm happy Silvestri's theme somewhat survived (see "Avengers Unite"). I'll wait to download though after seeing it this weekend.

OK, thanks. Based on that, I guess I'll add at least "fighting back" in there. #1 Danny Elfman - It Begins (Marvel logo and opening battle) #2 Brian Tyler - Breaking and Entering #3 Brian Tyler - Avengers: Age of Ultron Title #4 Brian Tyler - Birth of Ultron #5 Danny Elfman - Ultron Wakes #6 Danny Elfman - Ultron-Twins #7 Brian Tyler - The Vault #8 Brian Tyler - Hulkbuster #9 Danny Elfman - Farmhouse #10 Brian Tyler - Darkest of Intentions #11 Brian Tyler - Seoul Searching #12 Danny Elfman - Can You Stop This Thing? #13 Danny Elfman - Inevitability-One Good Eye #14 Brian Tyler - Vision #15 Brian Tyler - The Mission #16 Brian Tyler - Uprising #17 Brian Tyler - The Battle #18 Brian Tyler - Outlook #19 Brian Tyler - Fighting Back #20 Danny Elfman - Avengers Unite #21 Brian Tyler - Sacrifice #22 Brian Tyler - The Last One #23 Danny Elfman - The Farm #24 Brian Tyler - Wish You Were Here #25 Danny Elfman - New Avengers-Avengers: Age of Ultron

These modern superhero films have a very clear dramatic structure: fight scene with mayhem and multiple explosions, quiet breather scene, then the next fight scene and so on. Yet, this structure produces a stop-and-go score that is either hammering away or stepping into the background, more or less sonic wallpaper. Quite agree with this. Excaltly the issue of both film and score. There is certainly no structure, and little evolution, because these movies are all concerned by rythm. There is just no breathing between action, motion, dialogue scenes with all these scenes being short, hence you can't develop anything: little true feeling nor musical structure (I found it particularly evident in the "Guardians of the galaxy" movie, handling humour and dramatic points in a matter of minutes). In Ultron, the most impressive one-to-one fight in the movie has no dramatic resonnance whatsoever. What can the score do then except ape the momentary obvious in a short amount of time? This second movie feels episodic and lacks a global structure, where characters and story evolve significantly toward some conclusion (to be honest it's there, but for some side characters where it doesn't work very well). At least, the first movie was about bringing the team together, so when the big moment came with that circular shot, Silvestri could blast its theme with a sense of culmination - and it was the only moment where the score indeed made an impression. There is none of that in the new movie, where both composers just have to catch up with the stop-and-go narrative. Liked a lot Elfman's music on album, btw!

Anyone notice Elfman quoting from his own Ang Lee Hulk score in the movie? I didn't, but I mentioned in a post earlier in this thread that I personally thought it'd be really cool if he could or if he did, because I really dig The Hulk score.

Okay, after observing the bizarre metamorphoses of the composer credits on the posters for ‘Avengers: Age of Ultron’ (“Music by Brian Tyler” —> “Music by Brian Tyler, Additional Music by Danny Elfman” —> “Music by Brian Tyler and Danny Elfman”), now having seen the movie and hearing that the bulk of the moments where the score really kicks into high gear, it does so by referencing Alan Silvestri's themes from the first film, I can't help but ask… why not have just hired Silvestri in the first place?
