I think it is, hearing it in theaters always causes my heart to skip a beat

Definitely, yes! Every time I hear it I get this overwhelming sense of joy and it's gotten to the point of being synonymous with the Avengers franchise and the MCU in general.

I think it is. I scoffed at how simple it was years ago when I first heard it, but I think it's become synonymous with the brand.

Even though I know how it goes, I have a hard time humming it. Just awkward timing.

It feels like the most basic theme, which kind of makes sense when you have so many characters and styles at the same time.

No. It's a theme I immediately recognise but subsequently immediately forget when it's over. Can't hum it if I wanted to, which I easily can do with Indiana Jones, Star Wars, LotR, Jurassic Park...

It wasn't at first, but as it's been reprised across the different films - it has absolutely grown on me. Definitely going to be as iconic as the greats with time.

Hearing it during the Infinity War trailer is when I finally realized it is, no question about it.

I honestly didn't even know what the theme music was for the Avengers. However if u had me pick themes from Marvel film, I can pick that out. Otherwise no idea it was

I think it's iconic but not as iconic as stuff like Star Wars, Indiana Jones, Jaws, or Jurassic Park. Probably not as iconic as the Harry Potter theme either.

When you compare it against the Star Wars and Superman themes? Of course not.

It's more iconic than most movie themes, though.

I was never more sure of the theme being an all time great until I experienced this scene with a roaring applause from the audience. That's a memory I'll never forget.

No.

Butt hat doesn't mean I won't get "chills" moments or teary moments like Thor and Cap's entrances in IW.

It is for me. I honestly don't even know the MOS theme and I've watched it multiple times. I'll probably recognize it once I hear it but off the top of my head? Nope.

I know the WW theme though.

I instantly recognize it when I hear it, but everytime I try to play it in my head I just think of a Marine recruitment ad.

Buildup isn't the greatest. Takes a little too long to really get my blood pumped. With Elfman's Batman and Williams's Superman themes the first notes were enough to get me hyped.

Star Wars is on a completely different level.
