Thor: The Score

Of all the scores I have heard (other than John Powell's) this one stuck out the most in the theater. Making you feel like you are in a world where honor matters, Patrick Doyle adds a sense of power and greatness to his music that adds to the movie in a way that no other does. Using many clangs and kettle drums to his orchestra makes you feel like Thor himself is conducting it with the vigor of a high being! The track "Sons of Oden" tells you on its own that this movie is taking place in a wondrous place and with powerful and honorable characters, Doyle did a wonderful job adding to a movie by turning music into a movie genre and turns a conductor's baton into a paintbrush.
