Yeah!
Let's do a "Lord of the Rings vs Star Wars" poll, that should finish him!

Contrary to what he might say, it is unfathomable for KM that people on a JW board are fans of music other than John Williams'.

The OST also omits some of the extended All Shall Come To Darkness theme that is in the film.

Do you mean A Noble End theme? Could you give the exact time and track for this appearance. I must have missed it all these years.

No need for time stamps, it plays right after the Shire theme when we see Boromir fall down Rauros and Aragorn putting on his gloves.If the CR version is Shore's intended version, why is the piece in the symphony different? Also, the boy chorus and orchestra sounds tracked from In Dreams, with Edward Ross removed. One might say the CRs must be Shore's intended version, but FOTR is peculiar in this way, since in TTT and ROTK, no film edit made it to the CR, whereas in FOTR, nearly every film edit was included.

Isn't the Symphony a pretty unreliable guide to Shore's original intentions since it is often very editorially spliced together, recreating many of the OST edits along the way.


Isn't the symphony written by Shore?

It's not so much a symphony as it is a bunch of highlights from the trilogy stitched together not unlike to the editing of the OSTs. I wish Shore had taken the time to actually take the thematic material and write it as a standard symphony in the classical sense. I would have loved to hear all the motifs in a newer presentation rather than straight from the film's scores, note for note. But I'm sure it must be a great experience to hear the symphony live.

I've only heard the music in the films and that was awhile ago. I didn't find it worth purchasing.
OH God, Joe is posting again, someone hand me my pills!

"You're not John Conner, I saw you die, said Kyle". "I was only injured, replied John". "No, your injuries were too severe, you died. Look at you, where are your injuries? You're, you're a Terminator." "Kyle, its still me, yes my body was beyond repair, but my essence is here." He points to his head. "No John". Kyle raised his pulse rifle and aimed it at John but before he could fire, John fired first. Knocked to the ground Kyle looked up at the Terminator in the form of the man he once idolized. All hope was lost. "If you kill me how will you ever be born?" "Thats a good question Kyle, all this time we've focus on Sarah, on John, when had we known the it was you we should have targeted all along." John pointed his rifle at Kyle's face. "The resistance is finished, the battle is won. We the machines are the victors, salvation is ours." Kyle never heard the second shot.
