Same score?

[ewans_gal_4ever]

Anyone else notice that the beginning to the trailer to Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull is the same score from Children of Dune, specifically track 4 titled "Revolution" on the COD soundtrack?

Grrr, it's bugging the heck out of me. Did Tyler agree to let Spielberg use it? What about John Williams? Does anyone know? Or is it

Movie trailers use music from other movies constantly. Yes, they have to get permission and pay for it.

Thank You!!!!

I didn't realize that they did that (borrowed for trailers from other movies) since this is the first time I had noticed. Man, I was starting to go nuts! Every time I saw the trailer I kept thinking "That sounds like Children of Dune". Even my daughter came in the room while I was watching the trailer (again) and said "Isn't that from Dune?" Hee. Thanks again. :)

They also used the same theme for Cinderella Man, way back. :D

It saddens me that great composers like Brian Tyler don't get nearly as much recognition as other "celebrity" composers like John Williams or Hans Zimmer, even though film makers use his music like nobody's business in their trailers and stuff ... I just want to tell everyone I know, "Hey, you know that song in ____ trailer? It's by Brian Tyler." Maybe I should start doing that anyways. :x

Yeah, the Children of Dune stuff is used a lot. I think it was also used, besides Cinderella Man, as someone said, in Master and Commander and one of the long Narnia trailers. And possibly in part of the first teaser thing on the Internet for the Golden Compass?

I agree with __serendipitous - Brian Tyler definitely deserves more recognition.

It bugs the hell out of me as well! Unfortunately it happens all the time - I remember when they used the Stargate (film) music to the promo for The Mummy Returns. I was incensed!!!!!!!!!
