Faleel 5,348 Posted December 1, 2014 Share Posted December 1, 2014 Ahh, there's that classic SUH optimism. The first half is indeed scored very well. But the second half felt very lacking without music to drive the momentum. The arrival of the orcs should have the kind supporting music the Mumakil have.Funny that you should mention that bit, seeing how the last bit was dialed out in the (ROTK) film. Very true. But it doesn't sound like it was edited by an amateur Neither does the BOTFA clip, I noticed no anomalies in terms of the editing of the music, perhaps spotting, but not editing.

tannhauser 101 Posted December 1, 2014 Share Posted December 1, 2014 The most interesting part of that article was that Shore is writing a guitar concerto! The Hobbit scores are good, but I really want to hear that! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KK 3,307 Posted December 1, 2014 Share Posted December 1, 2014 By Eagles music from AUJ returning, do you mean the one in the film or the bit from 'A Good Omen' on the OST?The one in the film. The Carrock music at the second half of this cue. Ripped from our very own Alice of Brallice!How far in is Nature's Reclamation in the video? Searching for it right now but can't find it. Beginning, middle or end of the video?Right before the 26 min mark I believe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because Dol Goldur is Azog's home. It makes sense! And it's very awesome!!

Faleel 5,348 Posted December 1, 2014 Share Posted December 1, 2014 Whoa!The music is Smaugs theme, very similar to when Bilbo first spots Smaug in the treasure hall. Slow and creepy. Even over "The Hobbit" title, no shire theme.I forget the actual theme played during "The Battle of Five Armies." I want to say it may have been Thorin or Erebor's theme but I honestly don't remember. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good to know it was not Billy's song or Ironfoot. Shore talks about the Sons of Durin in a small interview clip and says the piece uses the Sons of Durin theme, which he has used throughout the 3 films(!). Hmmm does he mean The House of Durin? Thorin's Theme? Erebor Theme? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay 37,363 Posted December 2, 2014 Author Share Posted December 2, 2014 I think he's talking about Thorin and Erebor since those are what we hear in the sample.We already discussed this after Ware first posted it (click the symbol on any quote to jump right to that point in the thread) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Incanus 5,714 Posted December 2, 2014 Share Posted December 2, 2014 I think Doug Adams should be with him in these interviews to correct him.
