I agree both are great, and Zimmer did a fantastic job. I love his score. But. That classic Williams Superman score. It's the standard for superhero themes. The one that you can play to anyone and it would be instantly recognizable
Zimmer's musical sounds generally fits the mood and feel of a film, but it's rare I watch a film and leave it with a memorable theme in my head the way I do when Williams scores a film.
@@itstitangaming9897 --- I agree with you that Hans Zimmer's theme is very Beautiful. The Man of Steel movie theme sound track was Amazing. It gives me goosebumps when I hear it. It is so EPIC.
Thats it! Right there! Its the same as with the compositions for the Dark Knight trilogy. In both those films and in Man of Steel, his music was made for the FILMS. John Williams Superman theme, and Danny Elfman’s Batman theme, were made for the CHARACTERS.
One theme is about the path of the Hero’s Journey, while the other is about the culmination. Both are awe inspiring. It’s like having to choose between Lou Gehrig and Babe Ruth.
For me as a 15 year old at the theater in 78 the epic sweeping John Williams’ Superman theme was magic as soon as the S flashed on the screen.Be that as it may I love the slow soft build up and then in your face Hans Zimmer theme in man of steel! Both are winners!
@@matteggsbenedictgamer5310 that doesn’t make one better than the other, I personally prefer Hans Zimmer’s theme but I respect you prefer John’s, but you can’t say one is better bc you think so
Nobody gets how impactful soundtrack to character is. I feel like Hanz Zimmer embodied Cavill's superman very well based on his character and the Same goes for Reeve's Superman.
I really love both, John William’s Superman theme is EPIC, but Hanz Zimmer’s “Flight” gets me every time! Put that together with Henry Cavill’s interpretation of the scene, it’s just MAGNIFICENT! 🥹💙❤️
All Man Of Steel ever really needed was one or two of the John Williams score later on in the movie.. However, Zimmer captured the emotional lonely life of Clark covering up his identity.. Imagine it; if a man like Superman actually exited, the world would truely be terrorfied of him..
I like Hans Zimmer's score. It's so hopeful, unique and emotional. The S in Superman's suit means Hope and this theme sounds very emotionally hopeful to me. Williams score is just legendary but is more about the just and super part of Superman to me, but I do love that it has a playful kidish feel to it where every child can get exited listening to it. Zimmer's version is more of the inner, emotional part of Superman instead of his outer Superhero side of him
John Williams describe Superman *"From Our Eyes/prespective"* hero that saves everybody and the day Hans Zimmer describe Superman *"From Superman's Prespective"* the things he had to endure, learn to control yet not let emotion be in the way, the hardship of being accepted by Human etc
I prefer Hans Zimmer's score for Superman. It's very unique and gives you a very alien feel. It has the power, gravity and mystery all in one combined, which really fits Superman.
@@mak3yasmiil3 Zimmer's score does that as well. Just listen to 'Flight' and 'What are you going to do when you're not saving the world' from Man Of Steel 👇 ruclips.net/video/R2tBYMvDmDI/видео.html ruclips.net/video/HH1l5okI9mE/видео.html But William's score fails to express all the mystery and alien feel about Superman and his Kryptonian heritage. He didn't even give a pulse pounding thrilling score for all the action scenes in those old movies.
woooow !! this mashup comes really from Krypton, heroic and iconic !! “You see I’m both Clark Kent and Superman, not because I have to be... now... because I choose to be”
I like both. WIlliams' theme is heroic, sweeping, and epic. I've also been listening to it for over 40 years. Zimmer's is more interspective and almost mournful, like other comments, an outcast finding his way in the world, which is the direction that Snyder was going. However, like most "heroic" themes, they are both based on perfect fifths.
What would be interesting is Zimmer doing a modern update of Williams score. As they are, they don't really mesh well together but i can seem how some more heavier drums like in the MOS Theme and stuff could modernize Williams' theme a bit. Both great themes for 2 very different Superman films though.
Zimmer's version make us feel how Superman feels And Williams version make us know how we feel about superman's heroicness. Personally I love MoS music.
I honestly think that the two versions of the same story says more about us then it does the Character of Superman. This age (the 2020s) is depressing and self obsessed, darker than any other time in my life. There is a sorrow... in this time, like we have lost and are in decline. The beginning ... the ancient civilization of Krypton, the sense of loss in the music is profound. You can understand where a civilization and culture is by the stories it tells itself. We are in our decline. Superman lives and dies in just two movies. The music of John Williams was and is thrilling and joyful, exciting. Fun movie, youthful .. a time when we were, as a nation and culture, at the pinnacle of our progress, hope and optimism. These two movies gives us insight to what is happening within our own culture... the 1960s- 80s were a period of turning outward. Now this generation is turned inwards.
2:37 even though I grew up with Zimmer, this gives so many chills 4:46 as well, just awesome Superman’s theme is great between both composers..it speaks hope and motivation beyond your imagination
My interest in film scores began with Hans Zimmer's "Flight." It is a love letter to the character and brings a majestic, otherworldly feel. John Williams's score is a beautiful melody that I believe is recognized by everyone on this planet at this point, and I sure hope people think the same of Hans Zimmer.
Both of them they just have this uplifting feeling of Hope and of something Greater that's inevitably bound to happen. I like to think of it with these themes applied to myself, if I ever feel down I play these themes because they just make me imagine that hope, no matter where, no matter how, no matter a million years, that Hope will not die even in its smallest form. Pretty inspiring to me.
The Man of Steel theme is beautiful, but there is no competition as to which theme is superior. The original John Williams Superman theme will forever be the best of the two, and the greatest superhero theme of all time.
The difference between a Zimmer score and a Williams score is this... A Zimmer score paints a tapestry of color, emotion, and energy that perfectly compliments the film for which it was scored. A Williams score is the living force (pun intended) without which, the story could not be told. It is EVERY character, and the cast member with more lines than the hero.
All due respect to Hans Zimmer I like his stuff I really do. And his Superman song is really good and it should have a place in the movie. What did John Williams score is the Superman song. It's what most people think of when they think of Superman. Zack Snyder was a moron for not including it.
Not anymore. Yes, it’s a classic, but when people hear the man of steel theme now , people get pumped and know Superman is in the room. The classic is good, but MoS just gives that vibe that Superman isn’t really human, and that he came from another planet.
@@PadmeGaveMeHIV bro you can still see people Taking the Man of Steel trailer and putting the John Williams theme over it. Same thing with the Superman CW Show. The John Williams theme is simply iconic.
Thanks for the great work Roland. Personally my preference goes to Zimmer as per the variety on using innovative sound, but I can't say I don't love Williams masterpiece.
To me Zimmer score fits the epic power and majestic feel of Superman where Williams score is slightly more dated but captures the soul and spirit of the character IMO
This is better, I love this (This is beautiful and badass) I hope this is the new Superman theme, this should be the opening credits from Man of Steel 2
wow. usually in comment sections comparing themes you see bickering and people taking sides, but...what is this? people are actually enjoying what both these themes represent and are appreciating both of them? whoa.
Sia John Williams e Hans Zimmer sono bravissimi, con le loro colonne sonore hanno regalato tante emozioni. Sono stati tutte e due dei grandi maestri con le loro colonne sonore dei film di Superman, e anche dei altri bei film, ancora più belli e emozionanti grazie a questi due maestri. Ciao.
I wonder how these amazing compositions would stand up in the absence of the connection with the movies and powerful characters. I am more familiar with John Williams era and I find myself getting chills as the piece develops onwards and into the crescendo, as I reminisce about superman catching Lois and then the helicopter.... "You've got me, who's got you?" Love it! Fantastic music all of it 👍🎶
In my humble opinion anytime I've heard a mashup of these two different themes the John Williams went always dominates the room every single time it doesn't really matter what piece they play it could be the Krypton theme song or it could be Superman's theme song it always dominates what Hans Zimmerman came up with for the Man of Steel always in fact the man of steals music just sounds like generic action music that would be played between the cues that John Williams actually wrote
You clearly never heard of flight, Zimmer has the more memorable one since it has emotion, it feels alien which is perfect for superman and it also has the feeling of discovery
The funny thing about this is that (like Dune and TOTO's music) I think Zimmer distanced himself from Williams's score, so that he didn't feel compelled to sneak the main theme in there. Both themes are great and I love both personally.
Hans Zimmer score is okay, but is comparatively minimalist, and much more somber for a hero who is defined by his optimism and compassion. The John Williams score is as inspiring as Superman himself. It's joyful, playful, full of wonder and triumph.
I was going to comment on which score I liked the most etc. Instead I’ve got to say this is one killer mash up you did, I’ve listened to a good amount of the zimmer/Williams mash ups and this one was by far the best. Excellent work, really took me back to the original feel and Into the modern.
Would be interesting to see a triple feature of the horror genre, Werewolf By Night, Dracula, Lilith, Son and daughter of Satan, Man Thing have them in two feature length episodes each for Halloween for the next four years.

Both are awesome
Same
Hans Zimmer's better
Whoever put this together married Zimmerman and Williams PERFECTLY!! GREAT JOB!
Zimmer is more emotional, a Superman who is discovering himself. Williams is a superman without fear and with enormous self-confidence.
Exactly. Hans Zimmer's Superman theme is telling the story.
Agreed
I disagree
Yep....
YOU ARE A MASTERMIND‼️
Zimmers theme is "Epic" but Williams theme is "Majestic"
More or less beatiful than just epic
Zimmer's musical sounds generally fits the mood and feel of a film, but it's rare I watch a film and leave it with a memorable theme in my head the way I do when Williams scores a film.
John Williams' theme is definitely my pick no doubt. His fits the film better I think also. He brings the true excitement Superman had.

Hans Zimmer's is way better

Nobody gets how impactful soundtrack to character is. I feel like Hanz Zimmer embodied Cavill's superman very well based on his character and the Same goes for Reeve's Superman.

Williams is about Force, Presence and Power
Zimmer is about Choose, Experience and Do
John Williams to hans zimmler :- hey kid come to me, I'll teach you some music
Hans has the edge, both have special places in my heart for different reasons
.
I don't expect anyone other than Hans zimmer could have composed a new soundtrack which is just on par with John Williams
All do respect to Han Zimmer is a musical genius but John Williams is a God
The start of the man of steel score.. It always gets me
This is even more awesome since allegedly Cavill signed on to do more Superman movies today!!(🤞🤞🤞hope it's true)
DC is greatness
DC is hope
DC is humanity
DC is philosophy
DC is life..
DC is Capitalist Organization.
Nothing more

We are lucky to listen to great music from both.
I am big fan of hans zimmer since of my childhood best music director in the world
nope.
frost1977
They’re all good in my opinion
😂😂😂😂
You probably don't Even understand what music director means
I agree with him. His music is very relaxing and gets me pumped for the movie
John Williams describe Superman *"From Our Eyes/prespective"* hero that saves everybody and the day
Hans Zimmer describe Superman *"From Superman's Prespective"* the things he had to endure, learn to control yet not let emotion be in the way, the hardship of being accepted by Human etc
This is the one. The one mashup I've been looking for. One that used parts from both themes complementarily and together as one. Congratulations.

Ya same. This movie in my opinion has the best soundtrack
Exactly
But williams theme expresses the magnitude and overarching hopefulness that superman represents. He chooses earth because its his home.
