Does the man never rest? Or is he just a really quick worker? (And he does have about 200 orchestrators on each project...)
He's a bland composer who deserves the bad films he gets.
He is probably the single most well-trained, gifted and talented composer currently working today. From a musician's standpoint there are only a select few working composers today that best him.
He has the gift of being able to crank out perfectly-suited film music, with counterpoint, themes and orchestrational intricacy, faster than anyone out there. That is to be commended.
