Next week’s DLC is sure to have something you’ve heard before as it’s rearrangements of classic movie themes by @UbisoftStudioSF.
Check out @DanAmrich’s clue here
Personally and selfishly super stoked for Tuesday's @Rocksmithgame DLC. This is like a bucket list item for me. #filmcomposeratheart

Here is what to expect a Rocksmith take on next week!
Batman Theme (Danny Elfman)
Superman Theme (John Williams)
All I can think about is this… I’m old…
Lord Of The Rings Theme (Howard Shore)
Back to the Future Theme (Alan Silvestri)
Jurassic Park Theme (John Williams)
These are similar to Bachsmith in that they are our recordings, but whereas Bachsmith was approached as a total reinterpretation of the original works, the arrangements of these themes are closer to what you know from the films.
The 5-pack will be available for $9.99, as we still had to license the work, but we did not license the master recordings. These songs will not be available as singles; Rocksmith Goes to the Movies is only available as a 5-pack.
So what songs are you most looking forward to playing on Guitar and Bass? Or is this something that you are just not interested in? Let us know!
take out the lush orchestrations, sorry, synths, and there is little real music left. Pretty lame imho.
Movie themes are not ‘songs’ and without the footage are pretty meaningless.
I’d rather a 5 pack from a massively popular band, but we haven’t had that since STP
Who needs to give people good content? Just throw out crap.:trollface:
Well if it’s truly crap nobody will buy it, just like you don’t have to buy it :+1:
I hope they make a second pack with the Rocky theme in it. Super excited for this pack though!
Pretty cool stuff. I’ve always loved the dark sound of that Batman score and I have a feeling BTTF will be really fun too. Very interested to see RS’s take on all these songs. I doubt it will disappoint since I loved Bachsmith I and II.
Man, they have sunk to a new low. Nothin’ here worth bothering with.
I wonder if the Dances with Wolves soundtrack (looks like a suicide) was ever in the consideration for this pack?
I wish they sold this as singles not just a pack. I think the two that interest me the most are back to the future and Batman other than that I’m not too interested.
Yes. I should have said songs like 6am Salvation and Snarling of the beasts. Because really I like all of them and I want more.
I am not a fan of only choosing music that people know. Some time it is better to be introduced to new music.
Meh.
Can We get some Blackberry Smoke soon please?
I feel a good one coming on… Can’t believe someone else knows who Blackberry Smoke even is… Bunch of good tunes off the Whippoorwill album also… very cool band to see live…
Yup. Charlie Starr can bring it.
Going to catch them again this week in Daytona!
Right on… must be a cracker thang… I saw them in Gainesville last time they made it this far south… Enjoy!!!
none of these sound interesting
Moviesmith 🙂 🙂 I’m very excited with this
Batman? Why nof batmetal… Oh wait
!!!Excellent!!!
I just don’t understand who even asked for any of this. I’ll pass again this week.
Can’t please all of the people……but the RAGE about not getting what you want will always be there from some people?. Hat’s off to Dan, he has the patience of an angel. ? . Cant understand why he won’t reply to the Metallica questions though? ?????
Metallica members’ personal networth is 500 million. By default, they don’t give a shit.
Unsure which Metallica question you mean, but the main one is “why aren’t they in the game?” The answer is “we’ve asked, and we don’t have the license necessary,” and then the rest of the overview is at bit.ly/rsprocess
The power rangers theme wouldve been sick
THIS is why we can’t have nice things…
Ok, the fact that they got anything from John Williams is amazing. Of course Raiders and SW would have been the best, but he’s done such good work, almost anything is acceptable.
Got to admit from Star Wars, a guitar and bass version of “The Forrest Battle” from Jedi would have been one of my most preferred.
Imagine playing this with about 4 guitarists and 2 bass players.

These are decent, but for movie themes where is James Bond and Mission Impossible – How can those be excluded?
Mission impossible!!!! Someone light a match while I grab my bass! Lol
I am really excited about this pack. I love all of these themes and think this is a great idea. I listen to a lot of film scores too, BTTF, Jurassic Park, and Lord of the Rings all have amazing scores. The Batman theme is a throwback to my younger years watching the animated series. I loved that theme. I wholeheartedly support this pack.
Would have been cool to have some Huey Lewis and the News.
Indiana Jones would have been cool for this pack. I’m surprised after Galactic Empire released their star wars theme arrangement that sw didn’t make the cut. Also maybe down the line they’ll have a TV theme pack, early request knight rider, dukes of hazzard (don’t know how to reconcile the banjo part), Seinfeld (for the bassists), and what would you guys request/vote for?
I’m really excited by this. I actually listen to movie scores a lot. My wife thinks I’m strange for doing so.
But, while writing this, I started watching Portlandia and wish UbisoftSF would supplement this pack with a Rocksmith Watches Premium Cable TV Pack, featuring BWOW. 😀

Smooth 🙂
I care because I like the game, it’s a great idea. It’s just being poorly managed
Didn’t you just get six songs you wanted in one month?
I’ve picked up about 10 songs in the past 6 months. Not a lot in respect to the amount of content that’s put out.
Hope you enjoyed what you bought. Play what makes you happy.
Man, I wasn’t thinking original scores, Yesterday when I was reading the 3/1DLC forums I thought it might be Prince’s BatDance. Huey Lewis for BTTF and such.
I’ll have to watch the samples after launch to decide.
such a waste of money that could have been used to license somethings decent.
Why do you even care?
I’ll pass would rather have had TV – peter gunn, hawaii 5-O, Northern Exposure, etc.

fun Bass TV-Themes
It’s not an either/or situation, though — it’s not movies or TV. The future could well offer both.
Request those themes. This is proof that guitar arrangements of Hollywood stuff can happen.
The walking dead theme!!
BlueCollarNINJA everyone knows the best tv themes are british. Only fools and Horses. Minder. The Sweeney. Kilroy.
Well, I sort of got what I asked for. I submitted requests for several TV theme songs a while back. This is close to that!
Those are not off the table. It’s not an either/or situation. 🙂
I don’t even know what to say…… not exactly what I was hoping for? =\
What a waste… Ubisoft has almost hit rock bottom!!
If this is rock bottom I want to stay here.
Rock bottem? Dude… RB4 got Justin bieber and one direction dlc. I can think of a ton of songs I’d rather have than this pack but I can also think of EVEN MORE songs I’d rather not have instead of this. At least its something different.
LORD OF THE RINGS OH MAH GAWD!
Also, speaking of movies. Can we get a Bond theme pack? They tend to be very good (except for Sam Smith on Spectre, seriously it was a bad move choosing him over Radiohead).
No. if you are gonna put John Williams up there. Star wars theme is a must. The man is magical
They tried
We asked, we were unable to get permission for both that and the Raiders march.
So, you can say “no,” but you’re not the only one doing so. 🙂
O yes! Voted Lord of the rings soundtrack. Missing john carpenters Halloween OST ? Great work!!
What’s the plot of Rocksmith The Movie?
It’s like Groundhog Day but it stars Dan Amrich endlessly explaining why Metallica isn’t in Rocksmith 2014 yet
Will the MGM parody have Kate yelling in the middle?
“Led Zeppelin?!”
*PUNCH*
Too accurate to be funny. Thumbs down, says Zombie Ebert.
So Dan, can you tell me again why there’s no Metallica in Rocksmith2014 yet or do I have to wait for the sequel? Lol
Dan, this is so awesome! I was just trying to figure out the Superman theme the other day, now I’ll have Rocksmith to guide me.
Question: Is there any chance that the talented guitar trackers will release any more of their own music as DLC?
6am Salvation and Snarling of the beasts make me want more.
Have you unlocked the other track by Versus Them?
