Title: Marvel Soundtrack
Post by: BentonGrey on January 24, 2013, 03:53:09 PM
Howdy guys, what good songs/themes/intros should I include in the custom music for the Marvel mod?  For the DCUG I did the JLU theme, Batman TAS, Superman TAS, and a half dozen others.  I'm obviously going to start with the classic X-Men theme for this one, but there just haven't been as many good Marvel shows, so I'm not quite sure where to go from here.

The Spectacular Spider-Man theme song is pretty good. http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=LnPlEmr3fLA
As is the classic '60s toon theme song.
The 90s Spider-Man too maybe? http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=ogN9cZCbTUY
The Avengers EMH one is also good. http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=nkbPcnSpH70
The highly underrated Black Panther series. http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=jogj0_8rw48
The Lonely Man incredible hulk theme http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=1d4C1ZQKmw4
The score of the first Raimi movie? http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=0Ac4xamCIgY
X-Men movie theme? http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=RV8wN-VX32U
Or the most hard-rocking theme of all, the Japanese intro. SHOCK!  http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=WWTad94mre8

Of course, you could use a site like keepvid.com to download only the mp3 files from YouTube vids

Actually, while Marvel hasn't had as many great shows, their theme songs are actually much better/more memorable then DC's. I had a blast just going back and listening to these as I was looking them up.

Incredible Hulk (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dyQpEoMFF3w)
I am Iron Man (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JBbnT-cIDVM)
Wolverine and the X-men (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0f2RES_A49Q)
X-men Evolution (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B7yDf1q9jYw)
Fantastic Four (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=InKh9j77NcE)

I also echo Det with regards to the Spiderman themes (all 3 of them) and EMH.

Wow, thanks guys!  That was supremely helpful!  I took most of y'all's suggestions, and thanks for reminding me of some of those!  They don't go together as well as the DCUG batch, but I like the final product pretty well.  I feel a little silly including the Hulk and Spider-Man themes, seeing as they aren't in the mod yet...I suppose I'll just have to add them in eventually. ;)

A few thoughts in no particular order:
Man, Spectacular Siper-Man was awesome, and its theme song is equally awesome.  Admittedly, though, "arriving in the speed of time" is a really stupid line.

Fantastic Four and Iron Man both really improved to a ridiculous degree in their second seasons, considering where they came from.  I rather wish those had been given a bit more of a chance to develop.

90's Spider-Man is equal parts awesome and terrible.

Thanks for all those recommendations guys!

It may be a stupid line but I even love that. Spectacular was an Amazing show. I miss it.

Me too!  It took me a while to warm to it, but it was, well, spectacular.

Okay, these may be too cheesy for your mod, but I figured you'd get a kick out of hearing them again, anyway (assuming, of course, that you've heard them before).

The beginning and ending credits are a bit painful to endure, but the individual themes (Captain America, Hulk, Iron Man, Thor, and Sub-Mariner) are fun.

They're all probably a bit too short to use successfully anyhow.

Hoss!  You're the man!  How could I have forgotten about "When Captain America throws his mighty shield!"?  Haha, yeah, those credits are awful, but the actual themes are a blast.  I actually have most of those shows, but I'd completely forgotten about them.  I've DEFINITELY got to include those! :D

Fantastic four theme from John Ottoman would have been nice.  Just saying...

X-Men First Class Soundtrack is good.

The Sam Raimi Spider-Man movies have some of my all time favorite movie soundtracks.

Neat ideas, guys.  If I return to MA in the future, I'll play with those.  :)
