I'm here. Zimmer is awesome. He's my second favourite composer. Danny Elfman is my first. And they're both Batman composers too.

Damn. I already bought the special edition soundtrack. Now I have to buy this? I wish they would have given a heads up about it earlier. Stupid marketing schemes!

Posted by: TPJR on October 23, 2008 at 01:39:14

More songs? I hope so...

Posted by: Milkman on October 23, 2008 at 01:40:48

Really... Yeah not thanks... being most the music has the same sound, I dont know what they are going to throw in another disc... background music? ALl the main scores are already avaliable.. WARNER LIKES TO MILK YOU FOR MONIES.

Posted by: Jeramy PBFstudios on October 23, 2008 at 01:41:30

Ahhh the sweet sweet sounds of music. Go The Goatman.

Hey Milkman...it's okay buddy! :(
Just go in your corner and listen to your Little Mermaid sountrack.

Posted by: Dew K. Mosi on October 23, 2008 at 02:05:23

Milkman is the only smart one here

Posted by: I milked the milk man! on October 23, 2008 at 02:16:28

I totally agree with you Dew.... The Little Mermaid soundtrack is so much cheaper than the Dark Knight special edition. Maybe you guys can split the cost?? Just a thought. :)

Posted by: jokey on October 23, 2008 at 02:16:32

my favorite theme, like dog chasing cars wasnt in the movie...only a small part of it was in the movie...the heroic part wasnt...damn dissapointing...

this exactly what limewire is for.

Posted by: StarBlazer101 on October 23, 2008 at 02:26:52

I agree with "vote mccain, I already downloaded
the entire soundtrack on LimeWire.

&& I got "A better class of criminal" as my MySpace profile song hehe.

But are they actually calling it Special Edition. B/c I already have that. Unless this is a SPECIAL Special Edition. Freaking stupid marketing execs. Like when they release a "Special Edition DVD" and that's, in fact, the *only* version you can buy. Whatev. I'll be buying this either way. Just wish they could get their facts straight.

The Dark Knight soundtrack is Oscarageous it blended very well with The Dark Knight feature film. This, is how crazy, Batman has made Gotham. You, want order in Gotham Batman must take off his mask and turn himself in. Oh!!! and Everyday he doesn't people wlll die starting tonight i'm a man of my worddddd. Mhahahahahahahahahahah!!!!

Posted by: Chris on October 23, 2008 at 03:10:26

Sounds interesting. If it's different enough I'll pick it up (assuming it gets a UK release date) as I love TDK and it had a great score.

But I gotta say, why call Mermaid's soundtrack? It's got Oscar winning score and songs and that film essentially did for Disney Animation what Batman Begins did for the Batman movie franchise. The score/songs still hold up today as one of Disney's best. The film might not be dark or "adult", but it's a great family movie that has stood the test of time.

They are milking the raw, bloody teet of Batman to death.

Theres an image.

Posted by: Virgule on October 23, 2008 at 03:31:20

Hey Jokey, the heroic part is in the movie at the end when Batman fight the cops and try to rescue the hostages in the abandoned building.

I hate when they do this. Just like when they release a DVD and come up with a deluxe special edition a few months later.
I'll give an example: I purchased the Ultimate Matrix Collection Blu-ray boxset from Amazon. I got it in the mail yesterday and when I opened it it had an insert advertising upcoming Warner Bros. Blu-ray releases, one of which is a 10 year anniversary special edition of The Matrix. What is up with that?

Posted by: honsq90 on October 23, 2008 at 04:40:43

The only other track I want in my collection is the whole end credits with the bit of A Dark Knight when Batman is taking the blame for the 5 deaths.

Posted by: Harish on October 23, 2008 at 04:44:42

Nice. I REALLY enjoyed some of the music, it'll be interesting to see what this has to offer.

Posted by: superbat on October 23, 2008 at 06:58:31

I wish it has the themes that go along the movie... i want the entire score from the end of the movie... starting from where batman gives his speech till gordon says dark knight... ... i mean its all in bits and pieces in the soundtrack, wud really like to have a complete one...
