As a film composer, my goal is to make a great film and to realize your vision. And my music is the tool I use to achieve that goal. And I use it only when it's needed.

Notice I didn't say anything about making great music. That is because sometimes the perfect score is really not listenable as a piece of music -- it may be some ambient noise or beat, repetetive riffs, or something over-the-top cheesy. But why does that matter? The goal is to make a great film, not a great sound track.
