You look at 1 main theme and it was massively popular and so many tried to copy it, but it also really symbolizes the feelings of the nolan trilogy. Pirates has so much more depth to it than the basic main theme; singapore, the kraken, and up is down ('sea shanty' sure but it's at least different).

It's made to appeal to the lowest common denominator. Constant rhythmic blur to create tension, rising hum to create the illusion of importance.





It's the opposite of what good multimedia music should be: see for example, melodic emphasis and strong leitmotifs of the work of John Williams, or the operas and philosophies of Wagner

To put it another way, there was a turning point around the late 90s-2000s where the sound clarity in movies became so great that movie sound became much more about sound effects than actual good music. This is why a man like Hans Zimmer, who is a glorified foley, has become popular.
