    My dad surprised me with Fellowship of the Ring one evening in December 2003. Next evening was Two Towers. Then the next night he surprised me by taking me to see Return of the King in theaters. I was 11 or so. One of my favorite memories with him. Man I feel old. I remember feeling bummed that The Hobbit rights were tied up and that Jackson would never get around to being able to make the movies.

    I'd go again in a heartbeat if they do all three back to back in the US again like they did in Chicago several years ago.

    You're absolutely right. I completely forgot.

    I'm curious if anybody's got an edit of the FOTR CR that straightens things out, and you said yes. I (perhaps wrongly) assumed that there was a link for it, floating around somewhere, free for the asking like many things here.

    Who's got it? @Signals?

    Has anybody actually put together a true complete edit of Fellowship of the Ring, undoing the micro edits and all, superior to the actual CR release? I'm really sorry if this has been mentioned before. I dip in from time to time but don't have the memory that some here have.

    I just picked this up the other day. It was the stupid 3D diorama that so captivated me as a 7 year old boy. I like to think that started my love for scores, but to be honest, I can't actually remember when that began. But I have a soft spot for dumb marketing stunts like that.

    Where did 1:00 and following come from in the first clip? It sounds familiar, but also not something I've heard before. Same for 0:07 in the second clip, and 0:32 in the third? I can tell there's been some processing . . . I'd buy this in a heartbeat

    The weird thing is that the opening for this trailer trailer feels so much more Shorey than does almost any of Bear's actual music for the series (which I generally really like).

    Has anybody created a correctly-edited version of the Complete Recordings tracks? Or at least a spreadsheet of where the microedits / tracking / etc. goes / should go / be removed / etc.? I made one or two tiny edits to my own rips but wouldn't be opposed to a more correct version.

    I remember listening briefly to a few tracks from the Complete Recordings and thinking them amazingly dull and boring. Who would want to listen to ten hours of this? I too ate crow eventually.

    Wow, this is super interesting Chen. I appreciate you writing that out. So I guess then, for example, this means that the first 15-20 seconds of "Dernhelm in Battle" (what a great opening) is actually very purposefully tied to a specific theme? I really should break out my copy of Doug's book and read it page by page, cover to cover,listening to the Complete Score as I go . . .

    @Chen G. - this is interesting. Your description of reminiscence themes is actually what I have had in my head before when it comes to leitmotif. What makes up this more mature technique you mention?

    Any ideas when the score for Episodes 1 & 2 will drop? I guess probably Friday or Saturday . . . ?

    I laughed way too hard at this. Praise Shore I work remotely.
