Hans Zimmer sucks. Truth. He is such a hack.
The Dark Knight score - wtf was that? The album is like five hours of clicky percussion loops supplemented with a grand total of ten seconds of any actual orchestra.
He also had the grapes to call Elfman's Batman score "jolly". Jolly!?
Ironically enough, the only decent scores Zimmer has ever done has been for children's fare. Muppet Treasure Island and Lion King. Of course he didn't actually write any of the songs, he just dealt with the instrumentation - which was 50% blast synths anyway.
