Of all the films set in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, the Thor films are the largest in scope, with battles taking place on a cosmic scale and scores to match. On his original score for
Thor: The Dark World,
Brian Tyler (whose past work includes scores for massive blockbusters like
Iron Man 3 and the smaller but no less epic Six String Samurai) captures the enormity of the Thor universe with a soundtrack that contains all the bluster and bombast of the God of Thunder himself. When you're dealing with the world-shaking troubles of the Asgardians, a score that can keep up with the visual spectacle is a must. Fortunately,
Thor: The Dark World does not disappoint.
