This seems to be a new endeavor by EA, as they’ve only released 3 total from 2 composers so far. 43 minutes ago, Alex said: James Hannigan arguably did a better job than Hooper. I’d say he did a different job than Hooper. I was going to say, I don’t imagine that his scores would fit the film as well (as good as they are), but honestly, I don’t know that for sure. Has anyone ever thrown Hannigan’s score against either of the films? Could be a fun experiment. Hell, maybe I’ll do that today for fun. bollemanneke 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post TSMefford 1,509 Posted May 2, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted May 2, 2020 Not gonna lie @bollemanneke the results are quite intriguing so far. Here's the Quidditch Tryouts from Half-Blood Prince with James Hannigan's "Tryouts" and "Race Ginny". Pardon the imperfect edit, quality wise and mixing wise. It's not too bad though. I think it works quite well. I may have "overscored" it a bit, but why not? It's certainly got a sense of energy and heroism not in the Hooper version. EDIT: Sorry. Video in place now. EDIT #2: Another. Keeping with the Friendship Theme, here's the Ending of Half-Blood Prince replacing "The Friends" with James Hannigan's "Friendship Theme" and a bit of "The Boathouse at Night" Again, forgive the imperfections in the edit. So I will say that while these certainly are more lush and beautiful than Hooper's they still don't quite do it for me, because it's not a theme that was built upon through the series, so it still is probably just as effective as Hooper's, but it's certainly prettier. Don't get me wrong, it's lovely, but Hannigan's score probably still wouldn't have done what the series needed. It certainly would not have been a bad composer to have follow Doyle though, and it would've brought back some of the Williams-ish flare that many are missing from 5 and 6, and even 7 and 8. Personally, for me, Hooper's score is effective in the films themselves, considering themes began dropping left and right even as early as Prisoner of Azkaban, and the overall direction the series went. Hannigan's sure is nice to listen to though. I'm not done playing with these yet. Got a few more coming from Half-Blood Prince.

bollemanneke 3,337 Posted May 2, 2020 Share Posted May 2, 2020 WOW. Just listening to the ending. This is so, so fascinating! Don't apologise for anything! I can't believe what I'm hearing. EDIT: Right, I see what you mean about Quidditch not really fitting (in the beginning), and you did overscore that one a bit or maybe it was just a too 'obnoxious/intrusive' cue, but I'll take your friendship theme ending any day over Hooper's cue. Yes, Hannigan might have been a little too positive for the tone of the series, but anything is better than Hooper's blandness and I'm sure Hannigan would have found a great balance.

Glad you enjoyed! I did certainly overscore the opening of the Quidditch Tryouts I agree, I was having too much fun. Maybe I can do a new version at some point, but when Race Ginny comes in in really makes me feel things. Lol. The ending cue does work rather well. If only there was a consistent theme like this for the trio's friendship throughout the series. Here's another! This is the "Ron In Love" bit from Half-Blood Prince scored with James Hannigan's "Lovesick" replacing (as much as I do honestly like Hooper) a very bland and subtle cue. Is it too much? Maybe. But it certainly elevates an underscored scene and leans into the over-the-topness of a love potion gone wrong scene anyways: Honestly, I love this. It almost sounds and feels like an evolution on the Eat Slugs and Polyjuice Potion material we've heard before to me. I enjoy it! EDIT: Swapped this one with a better mix. Sounded too quiet when I listened back on my speakers. bollemanneke 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post TSMefford 1,509 Posted May 3, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted May 3, 2020 And another! This one is a bit long. Perhaps too long. I was only really after one moment (the Great Hall reveal) and it just kind of kept going. So, here's the Great Hall Reveal, Dumbledore's Speech, and the Hallway Scene where Harry and Ron go to potions. This uses four Hannigan tracks. Honestly all of this quite works for me. The critiques I feel like I hear a lot are that Hooper's scores lack heart and magic and I think Hannigan's has those here. I particularly like the reveal of the Great Hall with a quick statement of his friendship theme. I also quite like giving Dumbledore's Speech a touch of heroism and heart. It sort of makes it feel more important, versus the film where it's mostly just foreboding. Then the hallway scene nixes a quirky approach and goes more for a magical "back to school" sort of feel. I quite like it! Probably will try to avoid scoring long stretches like this for the next ones, but as I said...it just kind of happened. bollemanneke, DarthDementous and Cerebral Cortex 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They find an abandoned alley and apparate? It's magic, anything goes. But what if they didn't go with the car? Would Dobby have kept it closed? People would have noticed. He already overwrote wizards' magic and we know elf magic is different (they can apparate in places where wizards can't etc), would a wizard team even be able to lift it? Would they have found him and made a Barty Crouch-Winky scandal with Lucius? Actually, if not for their racism and superiority and ignorance, all those pureblood supremacists could use their house elves to do all kinds of chaos by overwriting wizard magic. Holy shit Dumbledore's actually doing the whole Wizarding World a huge favor by employing house elves to clean and sweep and cook: that much less house elves for dark wizards to potentially abuse for their power!

Maybe if that scene lasted a bit longer there would be room for a big statement. The whole thing with this little experiment is that Hooper is too subtle for a lot of people (not me), but Hannigan may go a bit too over the top for the contexts of the film. We really need someone somewhere in the middle...like...that one bloke...John something. They should've gotten him. I've heard good things about him.

HP helped popularize the teen cinema trend, that adapted young adult novels and ran from 2007-08 to 2016 (the year on which the last Divergent movie flopped at the box office) That said, it's not fair to say that these other franchises were successful just because of HP. Twilight initiated (or, rather, re-initiated) a trend of its own, the sexy, but brooding, depressed and lonely vampire, which helped make the TV show The Vampire Diaries a huge success. The dystopian setting of Hunger Games had more in common with the also dystopians Maze Runner and Divergent than with HP. However, it's not that HP is completly clean. It also inspired other crappy movies adapting books about teenagers and magic, such as The Seeker: Dark is Rising, Percy Jackson, The Chronicles of Narnia, The Golden Compass... And to be fair, the quality of these YA movies and their books were mixed. I don't like the Yates-era movies, but they're well made. Hunger Games is good (both movies and books), but MR and Divergent are mostly shit. I liked the Percy Jackson books when I was younger, but I fear someone older would find them crap (the movies are horrible). And finally, Twilight had fans back then, but it was so mocked due to the poor quality of the franchise that they didn't even tried to bring it back and cash in the nostalgia.

I'm talking more about the framework of HP and its relation to the other mentioned franchises, and not necessarily whether they took place in a fantasy world or a post-apocalyptic dystopian warzone. I recall Twilight had some audience crossover with HP shippers, and Hunger Games, Divergent, Maze Runner and even The Fifth Wave, Ender's Game and Independence Day: Resurgence(!) to an extent all had that oblique HP thing about it where of course the teens are the focus in some shallow story of survival and angst in a world in great peril and interacting in some way with the militaristic establishment, but with a supporting cast of established adult actors playing authoritative roles in an attempt to lend it some level of credibility. That'd all be fine if HP was isolated in those characteristics, but those tropes repeated in these other franchises become cliches and the awful effect of that is that it sags HP into yet another franchise in that teen/dystopian/survival/romance genre. And I find that stigma difficult to shake off from a franchise that previously held some level of prestige when John Williams was scoring its earliest entries. Kinda like how SW isn't "special" anymore and seems to now bleed into every other big blockbuster franchise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never saw it growing up. So I had seen many many films that were likely inspired or influenced by Star Wars first. And by the time I finally saw the films (which was only about 8 years ago at this point) they didn't quite have the magic on me that they might have had if I'd seen them as a kid. Honestly anyone who didn't experience Potter initially with the books or the movies might feel the same disconnect, or as if they had seen it all before, even though technically it was near the beginning, if not the beginning, of the YA movies trend. Personally I hold Potter in much higher regard to most mentioned here, with the exception of The Hunger Games series, which as @Edmilson mentioned is pretty good. It's possible though that I hold Potter higher...because I saw it first. I will say though that the first 3 films are basically classics in my opinion. I don't think I'd say that about The Hunger Games or any of the entries in most of the other series mentioned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DarthDementous 1,059 Posted June 11, 2020 Share Posted June 11, 2020 @TSMefford Bravo! Those are some of the best and most natural re-scores I've ever heard! This is truly what was missing from those movies, listening to those clips with Hannigan's music gives me much more of a closer vibe to the Williams era Potter movies, and adds significantly more emotion to all of those scenes. If I watched the entirety of Half Blood Prince scored like this and with a re-grade that removes the muddy color filter - I'd dare say this movie would become one of my favourites of the series. I think this is one of those rare cases where the writing and acting was on point, but the other aspects of the film let it down for me. There's such genuine heart and wholesomeness with the character's interactions in this, and with more appropriate music and color filters those moments would truly shine (and now do, just from the music change alone).
