We may receive a commission on purchases made from links.
Composer Michael Giacchino has been known to have a little fun with the titles of the songs he creates for movies, but his original motion picture score for Dawn of the Planet of the Apes is particularly full of puns. For example, one of the tracks in titled "Close Encounters of the Furred Kind", while his end credits score is titled "Planet of the End Credits". Check out the full Dawn of the Planet of the Apes soundtrack listing after the jump. Don't worry, the track listing it spoiler free (unless of course you consider a track title like "Enough Monkeying Around" a spoiler).
