I will not comment any further, other than to say that the port was rather good.

The full composition is a couple of minutes longer than the edit in the EE fan credits.

It has a consistency that is missing from the other two.

Version 1, but it loses sync when the picture cuts back to the dwarves. I can only assume that a couple of shots are missing.

There's a great Christian Rivers quote about the Legolas/bat moment - ​"It sounded like the dumbest thing I'd ever heard of"

Interesting to see the scene numbering for the Dol Guldur battle - it gives an idea of where it would have appeared in the two film cut!

Man that should have been there in the film!

This was originally published on theonering.net - http://archives.theonering.net/perl/newsview/8/1011715988 - with a few more details for the cue number fetishists.

There will be fun stuff.

Rumour has it that the vuvuzela overdubs have been dropped from the album.

The score is very fun on album but it's in the film where it truly shines. It's spotted and mixed well.

Yes, because Mishima, Kundun, Koyaanisqatsi and The Secret Agent all sound exactly the same.
Glass was apparently at the recording sessions in LA.

In no particular order, and probably not exhaustive...
Jerry Goldsmith (with the LSO in concert, 2001 and 2003)
John Williams (at various concerts from 2005 onwards, met him twice in 2007 in LA and Chicago)
James Horner (at the preview performances of Titanic Live in Luzern, had a good chat with him afterwards and saw him again in London at the premiere of Charades)
Howard Shore (too many to count)
Trevor Jones (at an LSO concert, didn't want to talk about film music but was very keen to discuss the tie he was wearing)
Patrick Doyle (various concerts, London, Belfast)
David Arnold (various concerts, had a conversation about breadsticks)
Michael Giacchino (at various Hollywood Bowl concerts, also in Luzern several times. Went out for drinks with the orchestra after the premiere of Star Trek Live. It was a very late night)
George Fenton (at an LSO concert, have also bumped into him wandering around London)
Alan Silvestri (bumped into him in Oxford Street with his wife while he was recording The Avengers, also at Back to the Future Live in Luzern)
David Julyan (in Ghent. He was drunk, as was everyone else. I fell asleep in the bar)
James Newton Howard (in Ghent. Possibly not drunk)
John Powell (at the Concert for Care in London. His family were in the box next to me and were rather...raucous)
John Ottman (at the Concert for Care in London. Had a conversation about jetlag remedies)
Christopher Gunning (confused him with Nigel Hess)
Nigel Hess (confused him with Christopher Gunning)
Alex Heffes (at a Tommy Pearson discussion thing in Golders Green in 2008)

Hans Zimmer (Interstellar Live at the Royal Albert Hall)

David Newman (Back to the Future Live in Luzern. Had a brief conversation after the concert - enthusiastic guy!)
Danny Elfman (Elfman/Burton concert at the Royal Albert Hall)
Chris Tilton (at a Hollywood Bowl rehearsal. Seemed somewhat surprised that someone recognised him)

Lalo Schifrin (at a Barbican concert of his work)
Alberto Iglesias (Ghent. You know the rest)

It's in Cocoon - The Return too.

The album recording was performed by the LSO and superbly recorded by Eric Tomlinson. No Horner collection is complete without it!

Bumped into this guy after the 'preview' performance of Titanic - Live last night...or should that be this morning?

It's Gremlins via Total Recall with a bit of Link.
