I hope anyone with some taste for film music will agree with me that "Pirates of the Caribbean" contains some of the most unoriginal music composed to date. Written by 15 (15!!!) composers collectively known as "Media Ventures" under supervision by Hans Zimmer (a great composer by himself). The only reason it's so popular is because millions of kids who never listen to film score drew in to the hype and placed this stupid thing on the top of the charts. For all you GLADIATOR soundtrack owners... listen in on "The Battle" (Track 3 I think). And you will most likely hear something unmistakably similar to the "Pirates" theme. (I'm not sure about that though, because I have a different kind of soundtrack containing a bit more music from Gladiator).
