I didn´t know this.A Knight´s Tale has rock music instead of a big orchestral score. Why the hell´did they do that? Stuff like that pisses me off. Not just because I´m a soundtrack fan but because it ruines the movie experience. They often screw up trailers like that. E.g. the TITAN A.E. Trailer. Also see KULL.
Anyway, check this out (the guy that wrote the review sounds like an idiot too):

You mentioned Kull, but Kull wasn't completly rock N'roll, there is alot of large orchestral and choral material thats still worth the purchase.

NO!?
NP: Raiders of the Lost Ark (John Williams) (would have worked MUCH better with a techno score, I'm sure. Same with Star Wars. These films need a more modern feeling, with music that reminds us of current sport events, so the audience doesn't fall asleep like when watching an Errol Flynn movie)
