"Continuing the tradition of John Williams?" Dude had an Oscar by '87, I'd almost consider him a contemporary of John Williams. John Williams is more subtle though, where Hans Zimmer hits you in the face with a hammer
John Williams is 25 years - an entire generation - older though. And some of William's most famous scores (Superman, Star Wars, etc) don't hit you in the face with a hammer they drop the entire hardware store on you.
Don't forget E.T.
Williams made universes attractive. It's like going to a live band play a show and them just playing vs having to have a light show with it. Williams was a show in itself. No props needed.
Also the same hammer over and over.
