Dixon Hill 4,233 Posted December 19, 2015 Share Posted December 19, 2015 One against three, it's difficult to choose the one. One against any one of the three, TFA wins. Three gainst three, I reckon Star Wars wins, as long as it maintains this level of heart that surpasses that of The Hobbit films.

Brónach 1,301 Posted December 19, 2015 Share Posted December 19, 2015 On the level of motivic writing, and I don't know if I would be being unfair, I only remember Bard's theme and Misty Mountains song writen by other people. If I dig a bit in my memory I remember Laketown and Smaug music and one of the flute things for Bilbo. But I had pretty much forgotten about those scores.On the other hand, TFA is very fresh, and it feels much less... sparse, and much more intense and focused. The intense part might be better described as in "it feels like the score gives a shit about what it's telling". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crocodile 7,984 Posted December 19, 2015 Share Posted December 19, 2015 Apples and oranges. If would have made more sense to compare Shore's music to the prequels. Cause it's a similar situation.When the do a LOTR sequels, with new young director, and Howard Shore comes back reinvigorated with youthful energy, then we can talk.Karol Brónach and SteveMc 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taikomochi 1,136 Posted December 19, 2015 Share Posted December 19, 2015 Are people gonna go back to hating TFA in a year? I remember similar polls and hype threads for KOTCS when it first came out, but now I feel like most people here are very critical of it. I love both scores, in any case.

Mr. Breathmask 555 Posted December 19, 2015 Share Posted December 19, 2015 I've listened to The Force Awakens only once outside of the films so far, so my vote is very likely to change. But I'll go with The Hobbit for now. It seems like a more coherent whole than TFA.Dat Rey's Theme though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveMc 2,674 Posted December 19, 2015 Share Posted December 19, 2015 Can a whole trilogy of scores be accurately compared to just one? Anyway, the only really good Hobbit score was The Desolation of Smaug. That one may be better than TFA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brónach 1,301 Posted December 20, 2015 Share Posted December 20, 2015 If I have to answer a fair poll, I'll say The Phantom Menace is better than An Unexpected Journey.But The Force Awakens is better than An Unexpected Journey too.This place seems to thrive more on the negativity than the joys of discussing scores with others.How is it negativity to say that you prefer one score over the other?It doesn't even mean we didn't enjoy the score we say we don't like as much or something. I don't feel "negative". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nick1Ø66 4,689 Posted December 20, 2015 Share Posted December 20, 2015 I'd pick the LOTR scores, which I adore, over the Prequel scores or TFA. But for much of The Hobbit score I was never quite sure what Shore was doing. Or Jackson for that matter.Listening to BOTFA gives me a headache.

Quintus 5,399 Posted December 20, 2015 Author Share Posted December 20, 2015 The LotR scores are in another league to The Force Awakens. That goes without saying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 10,265 Posted December 20, 2015 Share Posted December 20, 2015 Of course. Let's not get crazy here.But I will be listening to TFA a lot more then I've listened to The Hobbit scores Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Not Mr. Big 4,639 Posted December 20, 2015 Share Posted December 20, 2015 I would rank TFA over the Hobbit scores individually for sure and I would also rank them over all of the Hobbit scores combined too. Simply put, if I had to choose between TFA or the 3 Hobbit scores being erased from existence, I'd gladly save TFA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
