This almost entirely dependent on the success of the film. If the film is memorable people remember tunes from it. FWIW I think JW's work on Tintin was excellent.

Also TV themes will almost always thump Move themes for memorability because they are repeated over and over the course of several seasons for several episodes. The theme doesn't even have to be good to be remembered. I am pretty sure more people can hum Batman tv show theme more than the excellent and lauded work of Hans Zimmer and JNH in The Dark Knight.

Although in Peter Pan canon, fairies don't live that long. I believe that is the reason why they have such intense feelings. So Tink really wouldn't have lived long enough to see his return, even if we all clapped our hands the whole time.

Requiem for a Dream

Obv this is not a heartwarming family film. I watched it a decade ago. Now that I’m older with different perspectives and more awareness, I really felt the portrayal of addiction and it’s consequences even more than the first time. Never again 😭

Cyclops in both X-Men timelines. I think Cyclops is an interesting character to dive into but it seems Bryan Singer had no interest in him as the lead character.

XMen Apocalypse should've focused on Cyclops. His own brother that he's pretty close to, dies. And they treat it like a small footnote in the film.

Don’t know why you were downvoted but you’re spot on. It’s extra drama introduced into the movies that isn’t in the books. In the original, Aragorn declares his ancestry, and that the curse would be lifted if they go to battle with him. They accept and go.
