The Marvel Cinematic Universe and DC Universe have had numerous movie adaptations, each with distinctive music themes for their respective protagonists. The superhero genre has a fascinating history in film, with live-action and animated film serials being among the first adaptations to bring Golden Age superhero comics to life. 1978’s Superman, 1989’s Batman, and 2002’s Spider-Man, however, each contributed to the rise of the modern superhero blockbuster in their own way. Building off the three films’ foundation was 2012’s The Avengers, which brought the MCU timeline and superhero genre to unprecedented levels of mainstream appeal.
The best superhero films combine the spirit of their respective source materials with high-quality filmmaking, and one of the most underrated elements of a great film is its orchestral score. A memorable movie score can communicate with viewers in ways that even the best acting and cinematography cannot. Music scores not only represent specific characters and locales, they also convey filmmakers’ intentions. Unfortunately, a common complaint with many modern superhero films is that their music scores are generic and forgettable.
