You like Huey Lewis? Their early work was a little too new wave for my tastes, but when Sports came out in '83, I think they really came into their own, commercially and artistically. The whole album has a clear, crisp sound, and a new sheen of consummate professionalism that really gives the songs a big boost. He's been compared to Elvis Costello, but I think Huey has a far more bitter, cynical sense of humour.

Disney FUCKED UP the Lone Ranger will JACK the new Star Wars trilogy. Lucas should have never sold them the arcs.  DC and W Bros should have picked this up.

Sorry, but Lucas already completely Fucked up the Star Wars IP with the prequels. Whatever happens with the IP is moot.

Nah... They won't.

They didn't fuck up Marvel. They have good directors and writers doing the scripts, things will be fine.

The problem with the lone ranger was that Gore Verbeski or whatever had a meh script to work with... The story was just cliche and that fucked them over.

A lot of memorable movie themes have a similar sort of structure which Bear McCreary explains here:
