Reaseons.....Well, reasons..... IT'S JUST GREAT!!!
I specially like the combintion between the music and the pictures. A terrorist's sliding down a stairway, SCHDUSCH!!!! The music slides dow with him. That's wonderfull. Not like SOME ungly Zimmer/Manicina/Powell scores. Just some crapy tracks, that could by used in any scene of the movie. I hate that!

OK but but to DIE HARD.
This has such variety ochestrations. This minute drums, the other one christmas bells. And the best: I works perfectly with the movie. I mean what elese do you want?

Oh and Steven: "DIE HARD" FOREVER!!!

Cheers,

Okay, so maybe you have your reasons for liking Die Hard, but do not bash other excellent composers because of that. Zimmer has another aproche(?) to scoring films, wich is obvious to anyone who hears his music compared to Kamens. That does´nt mean he is a less talented composer.
The picture I have of Zimmers music, is, that he tries to give an overall viewe of a given scene instead of just rambling throug different emotions and actions that apeares on screen. I´m not saying that one aproache is better than the other...they are both, in my opinion, excellent ways of scoring films...wich one of them you prefer s a personal choice.

Yeah, that's because I wrote "SOME Zimmer score"!
Okay? I like The thin red line, or Powells Face Off!

And I don't said Kamens better then Zimmer or anyone else!
