Theme of the Week #22 - The Avengers Theme (from Age of Ultron)

Track Title: The Avengers Theme
Movie: Avengers: Age of Ultron
Composer(s): Danny Elfman, Alan Silvestri (themes)
Theme of the Week: April 28th, 2015
Info:

[@KrisFrost4359]

I love how Danny Elfman and Brian Tyler incorporated Alan Silvestri's theme from the first movie into this soundtrack, along with a few nods to Silvestri's Cap theme and Tyler's Thor 2 and Iron Man 3 themes.

[@ashwinthiagarajan2650]

L0L L0L L7L For some reason, I felt that Sam Raimi Spiderman theme in there as well!

[@KrisFrost4359]

Ashwin Thiagarajan Well, Danny Elfman did the score for Spider-Man and Spider-Man 2.

[@ashwinthiagarajan2650]

L0L L0L L7L Yea I guess that's why

[@mr8982]

L0L L0L L7L A bit of Star Wars in there as well, at 7:16.

[@graric]

L0L L0L L7L It was mostly all Elfman- this new theme variantion was his work, and it wasn't included in any of the Tyler tracks. Tyler incorporated his Iron Man theme in one or two tracks, (and Elfman also included it in one or two of his tracks for the film.) And it was Elfman that incoporated the Thor theme, along with the Cap theme at the end of the film. (Of course we are only hearing roughly half of Tyler's score in the film, so we don't know how much he might have used if his whole score had been used.)

[@MrLmb11]

Sitting down in the cinema to finally see this film and hear the beginning of this theme open the film, the chills down my spine were unreal

[@diegodidou3818]

thank Danny Elfman and Alan Silvestri

[@Fuerya]

Diego Didou Which in terms are part of marvel.

[@diegodidou3818]

I get what you mean but it is like saying that Lucasfilms did a great job with Indiana Jones theme

[@tatemcilwain1775]

It's a great theme but for this movie it needs to be in minor scale

[@reinhartgregory]

No 1 guy made it and they fired him

[@grimbutnotevil391]

Age of Ultron was by no means a fantastic film - but by God did Marvel produce some fantastic music for it.

Best version of the Avengers theme

[@nachiketjambhekar9982]

No I think the original theme, portals, main on end, one shot and forge are much better.

[@starquake6529]

I wish 2015 returns and never ends.

[@zoltankotolacsi6892]

I just hope Dawn of justice and Justce league will get similarely epic tunes under it's belt. The songs in the Marvel phase 2 have been so epic I can't even describe them.

[@numenor5407]

[@znspyder]

And the DCEU turned out to be a pile of shit.

[@carterpierson3714]

This was a very good movie. I recommend it to everyone, although, I saw it a week after it came out and got there half an hour before it stared but sadly had to sit in the first row so get there as early as you can to get good seats

[@cloudnimble]

i get a very strong Fable vibe from this and i love it, especially with that spiderman ending

[@larudrew9998]

The ending sounds so much like the original Spider-Man movies! So nice! I just imagine Spider-Man swinging!

[@stalkergamerbr8346]

certainly XD

[@stalkergamerbr8346]

#InfinityHype

[@RetroManWhoLaughs7089]

MCU has progressed their movies into a yearly thing and to me that is better because of high popularity with the fans. DCEU are on their own timeline.

[@Tee-Jayyy]

I will have to say that Danny Elfman is a really good composer and it's nice to get to see his music back in a Marvel Movie with his last time doing it was Spider-Man 2. He delivers this music like a masterpiece and knows what he's doing for this soundtrack and music. It's one of the good parts of this movie

[@teresectl]

But this was a lazy solution in my opinion. He took pretty much the Fable 1 theme that he did years back and edited in the themes from the other marvel movies. It's not bad, just a bit lazy.

[@Tee-Jayyy]

Arteemis Well he is actually my favorite composer. This music isn't the Best But it's ok

[@Khemtime]

+epicgamer9000 hahaha! I did that too! Kinda disappointed but I'm willing to wait. I just imagine them waiting to use it in Infinity War Part II as a huge battle starts against Thanos and there's an epic shot of all the Avengers coming in flying and running and smashing in on him like the church scene in Age of Ultron but even more epic and in an offensive attack. Actually when I think about it, the only time a Marvel character has used his or her tagline (or whatever you call it) is in The Incredible Hulk and that was terribly disappointing how it was used.

[@octoii2418]

"I'm going to Miss these little talks of ours" "Not if you don't leave" "I have no choice, the mind stone is one of six infinity stones to show up in the last couple of years, some one has been playing an intricate game and has made pawns of us, and once all the pieces are in position...." "Triple Yatzee" "You think you could find out what's coming" "Yes I do.., besides this one, there's nothing that can't be explained" "That man has no regard for lawn maintenance, but I'm going to Miss him and your going to Miss me, there's going to me a lot of handful tears" "I will miss you Tony" "Yeah well, I have to tap out"

[@Wyzzkyd]

Your edits are the freaking best I don't have to get the entire soundtrack and fast forward to the awesome parts. I cannot wait to hear what Henry Jackman will do for CW. I think he'd rock the electric guitar for Iron Man tracks like what he did with X-Training. And do something like the epic Mutant and Proud when/if Cap gets shot.

[@GIGANTUSful]

+Zenzi Sage Hopefully we hear something from his Winter Soldier soundtrack.

[@jakubbrezina4604]

Zenzi Sage he didnt

[@MediumRareOpinions]

Theta Protocol! Finally its explained where the Carrier went, I've been asking what happened to it since Winter solder!

[@omnicronthedestroyer9834]

ChaosSandwhich it was destroyed coulson built a new one

[@bigbear1293]

Omnicron The Destroyer Actually the Carrier was damaged in a battle with HYDRA and they had to hide it. Theta protocol was Coulson fixing the original. You can tell because the Helicarrier in Avengers 1 and 2 have the same Number on the runway No. 64

[@Omegeddon]

Caleb Hughes That was part of it. Theta Protocol is the Avenger's Initiative

[@bigbear1293]

"What are we calling this anyway?" "The Theta Protocol, sir." "Theta Protocol. I'm going to need you to write that down for me." "I gotta tell you, it's not easy keeping something as big as a Helicarrier a secret." Coulson chatting to Sam Koenig on Agents of SHIELD. I'd say that essentially spells it out

[@Omegeddon]

Caleb Hughes Yea you're right

[@andrew98hd77]

This 12 Dislikes are from Justice League

[@somebuddyX]

+Andrew98hd Language!

[@tatemcilwain1775]

It's actually because the marvel themes have been starting to blur together. Not that they're bad but the phase 1 music all sounded unique. They seem to be doing something different with the phase 3 themes but they're getting the guy who did the god awful avengers 1 music for infinity war when they should've gotten me! I've got the perfect tune and everyone I've shown it to says it's better than all the other marvel themes. (Shameless self promotion)

[@kellogscornflakes2430]

Tate Mcilwain There is no way you aren’t trolling

[@edwinfire101]

1:06 - 1:22 my favorite part 😌

[@juice2307]

[@bakt0r]

[@mariocarbajal6272]

There are apparently still 2 or more Ultron copies that got away

[@vulpixsmi]

When you've spent hours playing the game LEGO Marvel Avengers, this music gets ingrained in your head...

[@spectralslayer151]

Badass theme for a badass movie!

[@juliomontoya8824]

Some people (Including myself) critizise this one for not being as cool as the original. But it sort of grows on you after multiple listenings,

[@jestrl7580]

This is awesome, that puts an smile on my face 0:52

[@marcusduck]

0:00 - 0:19 Right before the movie started showing, I was expecting the Marvel Phase 2 opening theme to be played (the one they used in Thor 2, Cap 2 and Guardians). But when I heard the new theme i was like OHHHH SHIIT this is gonna be even better

[@israelmayo4168]

I love the avengers

[@advaithbulusu9539]

+We Are All Devo OH It's Danny Elfman lol No wonder it sounds a bit like Batman 1989

[@colinluk5547]

Might not have lived up to the first Avengers film, but Age of Ultron is filled with heart and purpose. The film seems to get more dislike than it really deserves.

I've got goddamn goosebumps, great theme...

I loved this film

[@roorsworch5998]

Oh god! This part... 4:00 I love this!

[@TheCapedPanda]

GREAT FUCKING MOVIE!!!!

[@sciencefantastic]

i like this theme more than the original. It's got a lot more going on in it musically. It also sounds just more heroic rather than the bland action score the original had.

[@thenerdking5601]

+Connor Fineran I agree

[@savagemcd7215]

The avengers are fucking epic and awesome my favorite is iron man and thor and scarlect witch and hawkeye This movie was fucking awesome like if your agree

[@AnthonyFilms1]

Noah McDaniel hawkeye is my favorite

[@RetryOfHealGuy]

Noah McDaniel It was good, but not great. First avengers was way better.

[@savagemcd7215]

Yea hawkeyes pretty badass

[@Bipentium]

TheRadBread Without a doubt, it was a very good movie, but in my opinion not AS amazing as I had anticipated. It is as good as the first one and I hope they learn from the errors they made in both films before Infinity War

[@RetryOfHealGuy]

The Shadowknight I just say Joss Whedon screwed up the movie due to all the unnecessary crap he added. But the Russo Brothers will definitely do it justice, just like the winter soldier.

[@Killm33]

This soundtrack was better than Civil War's

[@vuanhachoi2409]

Civil War's theme should sounds a bit more depressing than this bc of the fall of the Avengers, instead of a up beat heroic theme like this. For that reason, some may feel Civil War's is less interesting than this.

[@Killm33]

Lilz.MonkeyBoy I think CW is the 2nd best MCU movie behind Avengers.

[@vuanhachoi2409]

Thats what Ive thought too, but Ill see until I watch Doctor Strange. Bc the theme in Dr. Strange's trailer is so cool

[@matthewhuff7334]

Civil War was amazing, but I honestly expected better from Jackman after TWS soundtrack. Civil War's sounded really generic and had a very simple theme, unlike TWS or AOU or Iron Man 3... I could go on. My big gripe in a film that was otherwise nearly flawless.

[@Killm33]

Matthew Huff I agree, the score wasn't the worst but it wasn't up to par with the movie.

Like I always say, Keep your friends rich and your enemies rich and wait to find out which is which ...

[@desantoriswandi8146]

Epicest, no contest until now...

[@Sharpclawasaurus]

It's good, but unfortunately the best parts are still the bits with the original theme worked in there. I feel like this theme kinda fits Thor, Vision, and the two Enhanced. It's clear they're already breaking away from Iron Man and Cap, moving on to more "comic book" stuff, and I'm excited for that! It will be tough to let the original Avengers go, though.

[@wildavidedume3088]

it's victory song

[@TheMarionick]

The only way this could be more epic, if this is was remixed with a choir for Infininity War.

[@TheEgyptianGamerGeek]

TheMarionick It would be the 1st movie theme not this one because Alan Stevesti is back

[@TheMarionick]

TheEgyptianGamerGeek This one is better though...

[@TheEgyptianGamerGeek]

TheMarionick How? No sorry the other one is better this one is good but the 1st theme is better and I wanna see a Avengers-Guardians theme combines in Avengers 3 & 4 and maybe they should add Black Tears in Avengers 4 where the heroes defeat Thanos as he is killed by all there powers/abilities/gadgets/etc lol

[@TheMarionick]

TheEgyptianGamerGeek Because this one adds more than just the main theme. And I'm not a fan of the Avengers 3 and 4 thing. I was already sceptical about the splitting of the final instalment, but now it's not the same movie either. That's just not a nice well-rounded trilogy.

[@TheEgyptianGamerGeek]

TheMarionick It's 2 parts still just different titles

[@noname9041]

1:07 is the saddest part

[@aplatinumorange5112]

I thought this song had a "Fable theme" feel to it... And then I saw Danny Elfman was one of the people who made it.
