GvK Soundtrack thoughts and wishlist.

  So as we now hopefully know, Godzilla: King of the monsters  had a phenomenal soundtrack by Bear McCreery that definitely enhanced the film and is easily one of the shining highlights of the production. The way he utilized the classic themes for Godzilla and Mothra were so beautifully done with class and precision was admirable and his original music, like Rodan’s new frantic primal theme, stands along side the original themes as well.

 Ideally McCreery would be brought back for Godzilla vs Kong , but failing that I can see Alan Silvestri or Ludwig Göransson (Of Avengers and Black Panther fame respectively) pulling of the type of bombast and grandeur this score would need. Even Ramin Djawadi, who previously scored Pacific Rim  and is still praised for his work on Game of thrones could possibly compose a score that would work for this clash. I would be all for that vs a bland run of the mill action score that tend to pop up in today’s modern blockbusters. ( I personally wouldn’t be too crazy for Junkie XL doing it as an example)

In the end it’s not really that crucial but I do hope we get a fitting score from a talent of the likes of McCreary to enhance what we experience in Godzilla vs Kong next year. So my top list would kinda look like this

 Bear McCreary

 Alan Silvestri

Ludwig Göransson

Ramin Djawadi
