I don't know. Hard to think it was director Rob Marshall who says no to Zimmer's ideas. But then one could argue directors usually have the final say...but then it's usually the studio that wants what it wants for the movies. I'm afraid we'll never know for sure unless someone spilled the beans; I know there have been whispers in Zimmer's website but any facts? Either way, it is unfortunate we couldn't have had a better soundtrack. But the newer themes were a pleasant welcome&mdash;I completely forgot about the Spanish theme!

I don't think it appears in Mutiny, but that track is pretty much just a remix of cursed crewman themes, so it would easily fit right in.
 * Really? I never considered it as a remix. Thought it was done as an almost note-to-note from the cursed crew theme. That's very interesting.

I would be very intrigued to see what Zimmer would have created given full freedom though.
 * Agreed. Though I should point out, despite my bashing, I myself am a little fond of the "Jones cue" in the Fountain battle...just a little. There was a video showing a slightly alternate version of the track but I think it was deleted for copyright reasons. But back to topic, my complaint is mainly on the London chase, on land, with no cursed ships chasing Sparrow. But still, it would've been interesting to see if Zimmer had different themes in mind for the film.
