It also feels extremely derivative. Besides the fact that the Thief's theme sounds like the Pink Panther theme (melody-wise), it sounds like Folk is desperately trying to channel James Horner. With the sweeping, grandiose music, I keep thinking Star Trek II. With the soft, pastoral, and/or emotional stuff, I keep conjuring up images of The Land Before Time.
And is it just me, or does the music (also heard in the Recobbled Cut) when the Thief gets the last golden ball from the war machine, and flies up toward the viewer before plummeting back down, sound like the famous bicycle scene from E.T.?
