The end is nigh...

Certainly feels that way. Only a matter of time before the rest of the studios follow that. I'm sure someone will still find some way to figure out how to look at it all still, but it'll take some time. It already feels more and more rare to see CDs for some of these things too. There was a period where it felt like those things popped up everywhere on eBay and it seems to have slowed down quite a bit. I see a lot of the same listing on eBay for FYC CDs with a couple new ones here and there. I swear though, there's some listings that have been up there for years.

 

Honestly, I am surprised that more of this is not hidden behind some kind of log-in anyways. Thankful it hasn't been. I have always wondered though if Academy members have had access to more material. I assume they have.

Nooooooo

 

I wonder if someone can reach out to Sony and ask for credentials 

[MedigoScan 324]

Most of these FYCs already barely do anything new anyway..

At least not on purpose.

Yeah, for the past couple of years they have sent out direct links to scores for consideration as well as the films themselves. And I believe you have to log-in with your credentials to their website. They really started slowing down since 2019, this year even more it seems.

I've been meaning to try and guess the hypotherical links for the missing tracks of The Last Duel and The King's Man and I've finally done what I aimed to do for a few weeks, but sadly I haven't been able to find anything. For The Last Duel I even attempted to use any of the missing cue numbers of the rest of the score (since the film consists of telling the same story three times from different POVs, so the cue could have come from different acts of the film) but I found no luck. I haven't tried to alter the title of "Court of King Charles", but I did attempt variations of "Visit from King George - Time to Suite Up" by taking away the last letters (since 2m17 and 6m41A-C also feature cut titles) but I got no luck there either. At this point I would rather assume that those tracks either have not been uploaded at all, or that it's near impossible to find them by guessing.

 

Maybe we'll find some luck if the composers could be contacted and if they could do something to notify the mistake and to fix the links on the Disney FYC website or if they're generous enough, to share the files directly.

Issuing CDs will appeal to those who are swayed by being sent 'stuff' but it definitely feels that's firmly in the past. I'm actually rather glad to see the end of that era, if only because Williams/Zimmer FYCs go for preposterous reselling prices.

 

If more studios go this way it will be disappointing, but with most releases now being digital-only now, and FYC contents largely being the same, it doesn't strike me that we're losing that much.

[Imperivm 146]

@thx99 A friend made me notice that the hans-zimmer.com website has been updated with a complete list of cues for The King's Man and it shows the titles and slates of the two missing tracks:
- 2m14-15 Cost Of War (3:27)
- 5m39A Visit From King George - Time To Suit Up (4:16)

 

And it also contains a breakdown of the album assembly, which confirms that "Cost of War" has also been released in the OST in its unadultered form.
With this new information though I've attempted again to guess the link for the missing tracks and to my surprise, I was successful in finding "Cost of War"! I don't know how I didn't get it before (maybe the trick was using "of" and not "Of"? I don't know if that may be crucial), since I'm pretty sure I tried all possible combinations of slate numbers... but that's not important.

 

Here's the link to the first missing track! I noticed that it's shorter than indicated in the listing (2:23 instead of 3:27), but it's definitely not a duplicate of another track.

https://disneystudiosawards.com/media/soundtracks/The_Kings_Man_Matthew_Margeson__Dominic_Lewis__2m14-15_Cost_of_War.mp3

 

I've already attempted to guess the link for "5m39A Visit From King George - Time To Suit Up" but to no success sadly. What's worse is that the track is also absent from the OST according to the breakdown of the album assembly on the site.

I hope we're gonna get official slates for "The Last Duel" so that we can attempt to find the other missing track as well.

[thx99 1,740]

Well done, @Imperivm!!!  I have incorporated the "Cost of War" link into the main post and updated the entry.  I've tried even more combinations for "5m39A Visit From King George - Time To Suit Up" and  "... Suite Up" as the Disney site lists it without success.  Tried combinations of upper and lower case for "to/To" and "from/From".  Nada!

 

Also...

 

NEW SCORE AVAILABLE:

It's possible that this missing MP3 file ("5m39A...") includes those seven random characters following the text portion of its link, like we see with some of the other files.  These characters appear to be made up of a combination of "0"-"9", "A"-"Z", and "a"-"z".  So each of the seven characters can be one of 62 values.  Expanding that out to all seven characters, and we have a total possible number of combinations of 62^7 or 3,521,614,606,208 possible combinations!!!

 

So even if we knew the exact text portion of the link ("5m39A Visit From King George - Time To Suit Up"), we'd still have to try the over 3 trillion possible seven-character options.

It's worth mentioning all of the tracks that have the random text at the end can also be accessed without the text.

 

For example, your index lists 2m17 as :

https://disneystudiosawards.com/media/soundtracks/The_Kings_Man_Matthew_Margeson__Dominic_Lewis__2m17_Rasputin_Convinces_the_T_vyKCJJx.mp3

but it's also accessible as :

https://disneystudiosawards.com/media/soundtracks/The_Kings_Man_Matthew_Margeson__Dominic_Lewis__2m17_Rasputin_Convinces_the_Tsar.mp3

[thx99 1,740]

Ah, great point, @enderdrag64!! I'd forgotten that to be honest.

Wait a second, so the link works even without cutting the title or changing the last letters (Tsar.mp3 and T_vyKCJJ.mp3 link to the same track?). How is that possible?

Some of the combinations I tried were:
- 5m39A Visit From King George - Time To Suit Up
- 5m39A Visit from King George - Time to Suit Up
- 5m39A Visit from King George - Time to Suit up

And gradually removing a letter each time (since tracks like 2m17, 6m41A-C had cut-off titles in the link to the track) and changing the " - " that splits the two parts of the title to "__" or even just "_" in the link... while simultaneously searching for both .mp3 and .wav files.
Still nothing.

I guess I'll try again in a couple of weeks, maybe they're updating the database / fixing titles the closer we get to the awards season...

Finally, it's ironic that the two missing tracks from the Disney website have both something to do with monarchy (King Charles for The Last Duel and King George for The King's Man) and I wonder if there's a connection there... Lol

[JNHFan2000 2,957]

Still nothing on the missing track from The King's Man???

Randomly found this thread while googling, lol! I so want to find this track as well!
Been trying sooo many different variations of the possible link...! Hopefully someone will figure it out one day. It is a great cue!

[Raiders of the SoundtrArk 2,433]

Apparently there are two cues on Daniel Futcher website who's an additional composer of The King's Man

How Dare You (2mX) and Helmet Orchestra

Don't recall to have seen them in the FYC/Complete score

Thanks for finding and sharing them!

Looking up on hans-zimmer.com, it lists Helmet Orchestra as an unused track, but there's no sign of "How Dare You"... I wonder if it's a rejected cue or maybe a deleted scene? I haven't seen the film (yet) so I don't know if that line appears in the film or not.

 

As for the "2mx", I suppose it most likely is an abbreviation for "stereo mix" than a cue title / slate. It could be either way, but having seen that appear multiple times as an abbreviation, I'm leaning more on that to be the case.

[TSMefford 1,509]

I know this is barely related, but I just had to share. REALLY?

 

 

This is insane. Especially on an FYC that is not remotely rare and contains no unreleased music - it's the OST, minus the song. LOL.

 

$25,700? I sure hope it's a typo.

Ordered!

[Lockdown 238]

I'm selling my copy for $25,699.

[HyenaBoy 29]

I am upset that there's no FYC score for F9 (no doubt it would have been the same as the standard OST, however, with how lazy Universal are when it comes to releasing the FYC scores).

[TSMefford 1,509]

UPDATE...Guess it was a typo

 

[Raiders of the SoundtrArk 2,433]

Probably a non-american guy who didn't understand the meaning of the comma

[Raiders of the SoundtrArk 2,433]

Just checked the Walt Disney website and the 2022 page is now up. No sign of music though so far but it should arrived

[thx99 1,740]

Thanks for the heads-up, @May the Force be with You!!  I've gone ahead and created the thread for the 2022 FYCs (below).  Amazon Prime Video has a few music pages set up but not populated yet, so I've added those as well as the Walt Disney links.

None. The FYC page is dead now, but the individual audio links are still active. Still, there has been several attempts and hundreds of combinations to try to get the cue, none succeeded.

Unless someone has a ton of luck and is willing to dedicate a ton of time on this, I'm now counting more on a leak than on getting the missing FYC track. Same deal for The Last Duel.

That's too bad. Thank you though.

Wow, I feel like Ive just discovered a treasure trove of soundtrack music. Unfortunately Im too late, and the music I wanted is all taken down off the sites. Does anyone by chance have the fyc for Lorne Balfe's "The Tomorrow War" saved?
