Dixon Hill 4,236 Posted October 23, 2013 Share Posted October 23, 2013 Why did I just watch a video of a lonely old man locked up in a pretty house with two dogs and a piano?I guess watching a ladies man surrounded by hot babes (and a piano) in a groovy 1970's LA bungalow pool party would have been more suited to your liking.They told me there was no film in that camera....

Dixon Hill 4,236 Posted October 23, 2013 Share Posted October 23, 2013 I hear he and Williams host wild parties bordering on the ritualistic, with the most exclusive of guest lists, at a secret beach estate where the password is "Fidelio." That's actually why he scaled back on his work for DoS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Incanus 5,787 Posted October 23, 2013 Share Posted October 23, 2013 The original Q&A from Doug Adams' twitter:Peter Clarke @PSCTW 11 h @DougAdamsMusic Can you explain a bit about the 4 final tracks on the special edition of the soundtrack? Unused/Alternatives/Thematic Suites?Doug Adams @DougAdamsMusic 10 h@PSCTW Most of them are "theme-suites" as you say. The original, "pure" settings of thematic material featured in the scoreIn your face, gyver boy!And this is, gentlemen, how a sophisticated man shows his magnanimity in victory.

BLUMENKOHL 1,081 Posted October 23, 2013 Share Posted October 23, 2013 We Artsy people can be so pretentious about what we do. It makes me cringe sometimes."It all begins with million dollar gardens and estates. And then it's very internal. And then I have a symphony."Blumenkohl, an occasionally artsy person.

David Ferry Jr 4 Posted October 23, 2013 Share Posted October 23, 2013 interesting,all of the disrespect and negativity towards PJ, considering without him and his vision Shore's Middle-earth would not exist. Not to mention, no one seemed to have issues with PJ's musical selections in the original trilogy...but now that the expectations are impossibly high there are no hesitations to crucify PJ.interesting, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KK 3,308 Posted October 23, 2013 Share Posted October 23, 2013 Makes you wonder if that opening theme wasn't Shore's own original theme for Thorin's company or something to that direction.As I once said in one of my previous posts, I believe Shore originally had planned to use two themes for the Company: his own, which he probably came up with when reading the book, before he even started working on the film, and the Plan 9's theme. But then PJ went apeshit with the Plan 9 theme and asked him to use it as much as possible, to the detriment of the other theme. Well, at least, that's my theory.I think it's possible this theme will be developped in DOS, though (at least I hope so).EDIT: Just remembered the statement heard at the end of The World Is Ahead doesn't appear in the film. Doesn't look good for that theme, then...Uhmm ,why do people still refer to the Erebor track's theme as a solely independent new theme of its own. As I've said many times before, I thought it seemed obvious that it's a statement of "Bilbo's Adventure", or a more robust variation of it...
