Eh, agree to disagree.

I do hope that among the Ifukube themes that get remixed are Ghidorah's theme, as unlikely as that would be.

have it begin when they enter the temple so the quiet section plays through while they're trying to convince mothra to go fight leading up to the more intense section when she spreads her wings

It’s a public domain theme, so doing so will just make things seem cheap.

The version used in the trailer can be bought on iTunes. I went and got the whole album. It’s stellar.
I will explain slowly why you are wrong.

The 2001 music ended up being used in Godzilla 2014 so I can see that happening with Clair de Lune here.
I can't believe that Godzilla was the only surviving member of its species, but if we continue conducting nuclear tests, it's possible that another Godzilla might appear somewhere in the world again.

Ahhh that 2001 music was executed so well, too. I'd be okay if they used this in the final film. It's really well done in the trailer, after all.

It be neat if the score was something like this, found this on Youtube someone made modernized versions of some of Ifukube's Godzilla themes. Check it out.

He's bound to only use a select few Ifukube themes. As much as I would love it if he included the Ghidorah theme, I am not so sure.

As long as we get the two main Godzilla themes, I’m happy. Anything else would just be gravy.

1. I don't think you can quote cause it's a video and an image.
2. WE JUST GOT CONFIRMATION A BIG TIME HOLLYWOOD MOVIE IS USING THE CLASSICS THEMES, THIS IS A TIME OF CELEBRATION, NOT NITPICKING!

Agreed with you KaijuCanuck. In terms of how likely I think they'll be in the movie, my list goes

1. Any version of the Godzilla March.
2. Rodan and Ghidorah's theme
3. Sacred Springs/Mothra Song(HOPE I'm wrong. though)

It would be awesome if he could return for the next movie.

Well, let’s see how he does first. Although, it’s possible that they’ll pick the GvK composer before this even comes out.

Wishful thinking, but I'd go crazy if he came back for the third film and open with this:

Never have I seen a sheet of music that got me so excited.
