Enjoy and Please Say Thanks :)

Hmm

Great!

Of course its probably been re-encoded.

What a great cover! Edit to add: The cover was for a Christmas album initially. Collection has since fixed it.

Of course its probably been re-encoded.

That would be my guess as well. It'll take me an hour to finish downloading it and find out for sure though.

Update: It doesn't look too bad actually. Thanks for the share collection!

This seemingly does seem like it was transcoded from either the Amazon (MP3@VBR) or the iTunes (AAC@VBR).
However, any and all tags that would indicate this have been removed.

All but the "publisher" tag, which reveals Decca.
Don't know if Amazon has publisher tag or even iTunes. Maybe both.


I fixed the streams with foobar2000 and re-upping to MEGA as a fix.


Still, though. Thanks to OP for early release.
This won't be the only release, so for me, it's just a preview before the upgrade.
And, I'm impatient so I want to hear it now. :laugh:



Fixed MP3's.

Collection, can you consolidate the mirrors to your first post?
For clarity.
Topy has a mirror too, although I don't know if his are the broken MP3's or not.

A transcode? Gosh... I�m sorry, but a transcode is completely stupid. It gets even worse considering the 4 year old LAME version he uses. But why am I even complaining? I�ll buy it anyway.

thanks

Wrong.

Wrong.

?

the 4 year old LAME version he uses.

:S I didn't even bother to look at that...


LAME3.99.5�Z”

:confused: What the hell happened....

I'm going to go on a whim and say he used an old MP3 converter that's no longer updated/maintained.

This why you use Foobar2000 people.
It's still maintained and there's a forum where people actually contribute feedback and work towards progress.
It's full compatible with virtually any Windows build of an MP3 encoder.
You can create presets and use custom switches if you want.

Wrong.

Ay! ;)

amazing. Thank you

Thank you very much! Shore really pulled out all the stops and wrote a brilliant score that combines sheer orchestral force with quiet moments of heart-breaking beauty. But there's one thing I don't understand at all... why the hell did they completely fuck up the recording/mastering on these scores, it sounds like the whole thing was recorded in a giant garbage can... I won't even start talking about the terrible album editing. I went back listening to the Moria section which was also recorded with the NZSO at Wellington Townhall and I simply cannot believe how much better it sounds.

I think he uses 3.98 (he did at least use it on his encode of 'Maleficent'), last version was released in March 2010. Only 6 versions since then, the first beta for 3.99 tuned the PSY model. So fairly important changes were made since then.

But for this release here I was wrong: DBPowerAmp reports the encoder as... XING.

Naturally, I deleted the whole thing once I had a look at its properties. And I second sparktanks recommendation of using foobar2000 for converting.

This score rocks. Great orchestral action music and use of themes. Love the first one, disappointed by the second one but this one is great as well

THANK YOU!!

One thing I noticed it and it's weird: the previousl films and scores always opened up with some music and then the Shire's theme when THE HOBBIT appears on screen and yet, that did not happen here...

Ya, hardly any warmth or ambience. Fault with this transcode, perhaps?

By the by, does anyone know where Ironfoot, Dragon/Sickness and Thrain fit into the sequence of things?

No freakin' way! You are my hero! :D

Not sure about the first two, but Thrain is actually from Desolation of Smaug, it sounds in the Extended Version.

"Thrain" is a track Shore composed for the extended edition of "Desolation of Smaug"... I guess "Ironfoot" might be the music for the end credits after the Billy Boyd song.

?

The answer lies within my sig

Thank you so much collection !

Thanks Collection and thank you Spartank for the error-free tracks :)

:sad: There were moments where I was listening to this and got so heartbroken knowing the fate of the beloved characters.

I couldn't remember the tracks.
Literally, every track I had to hover the mouse icon over F2K to see what track was playing.

I'm so goddamned worried about Tauriel, since she's created just for the films.
She's bound to not survive this trilogy and Legolas forced to swear he'll never think of her because that would just not fit with the LOTR trilogy that takes place long after the Hobbit trilogy and when I think about it, there's a lot of stuff that everyone will just have to choose to ignore and not bring up again once they're finished here but mostly Gandalf and Legolas since they're involved the most between the two franchises whereas Elrond is part of some snotty High Council, he can easily just shrug everything off his Elvish shoulders and redirect his focus, emotions and feelings towards keeping ARWEN alive in the LOTR trilogy thus effectively keeping him out of the loop for The Hobbit memories/flashback whereas Gandalf and Legolas must swear to forget these events so as not to bring them up in the LOTR trilogy.

:sad: I don't want this to end.

"Thrain" is a track Shore composed for the extended edition of "Desolation of Smaug"... I guess "Ironfoot" might be the music for the end credits after the Billy Boyd song.

I was about to say, why is Thrain on the score when he got killed by Sauron in the previous film

I was about to say, why is Thrain on the score when he got killed by Sauron in the previous film

Well,probably as bonus track

he can easily just shrug everything off his Elvish shoulders and redirect his focus, emotions and feelings towards keeping Eowyn alive in the LOTR trilogy

I believe you mean Arwen :D

And I feel you alright, this HURTS

Arwen :D

:laugh: Yes, that's it.

So many names that are just garbled.

Try naming every LOTR/Hobbit character, both book and film, and see if you can do it without stumbling. :laugh:

Try with The Silmarilion only and you'll die of being confused :D

Try with The Silmarilion only and you'll die of being confused :D

:tommydissapproves: I got enough on my plate just trying to remember the actors names for the Dwarves.

Many thanks! :)

Thank you collection and Sparktank! Now I just have to resist listening until I see the film. :D

Silmarillion is probably my favorite book of all time, but even I can't remember the many names, outside of Beren and Luthien of course. Those always stick in my mind. Speaking of which, how awesome would it be to get a Beren and Luthien movie? It'll never happen, but it'd be so great.

I agree, Tauriel won't make it out alive. Most likely she'll die saving one of the dwarves, which will fuel Legolas' hatred for dwarves in LOTR

I think something bad may happen to her and Kili might want to get revenge?

We need someone new to take over the LOTR franchise, if we want Silmarillion.

not PJ. not GDelT. not anyone big right now.
Any director that's commercial and box-office is just type-casting like getting Nicolas Cage to play the demented uncle who's cool and has to wear shades indoors with a neurotic voice style.

It has to be someone who hasn't done anything in North America.
Neill Blomkamp? I wouldn't say it's his style at all. Despite, people saying he's a brand new "Peter Jackson".
But, he might.

Maybe let Andy Serkis direct. Not second-unit director either.
Full blown director credit.

Andy Serkis would be an interesting choice, it would be a big undertaking for someone without a lot of directing experience, but he's familiar with Middle Earth, so I'd be fine with it. I agree that it is time for Peter Jackson to stop. The Hobbit films are already far too "commercialized".

You're probably right.

But he has been the second-unit director for all three films, so he has some direction.
He directed all his own scenes in the Hobbit films.

PJ has suffered a heart-attack/stroke when he first took over An Unexpected Journey when GdelT dropped out from directing.
Any more epic features for PJ, and he'll die for sure.

Which is too bad. If anyone should do a Legend of Zelda movie, it should be PJ.
Even if it kills him. :ashine:

Thank you!

Thank you

Thanks

thanks for uploading this soundtrack!

Thank you very much !!!

Shame that slowmo nazgul theme isn't there as bonus track as well. Although it didn't fit the scene thematically it was a cool variation on that theme.

I was taken away by the scene at first because it was so awesome to hear it in a new fashion, but ultimately felt it didn't really have a place in the film the way they showed it.

I was confused half way through that scene after realizing that I was jsut being suckered in with awesome cinematics.

It definitely needs an EP.

Well I always listen to a score several times before I see the movie (even when they release a score weeks later to prevent that :) l

So during that scene I had one of my 'OMFG that isn't on the score! Grmblr grmblr. How coule they!' - moments.

But I don't think they will do complete recordings or extra score releases of the Hobbit like they did with LOTR. And chances of a session leak are very small

Thanks :)

Thanks!

Anyone got the original M4A-files or even the digital booklet?

We wont get silmarillion or children of hurin movies because 1st they dont have the rights nor will they get them before a long time 2nd people complained too much about having a hobbit movie and furthemore that it would be split into 3. I would understand PJ not go back in Middle Earth, people acted like douches. Even though some aspect arent good, im pretty sure no one has ever read the book because compared to the movies it clearly sucks. But that's not a surprise, Harry Potter had most of its movies butchered, people complained, The Hobbit is full and even adds more background about Middle Earth from the ROTK book and people complain again, WTF is wrong with people they dont fucking know their luck.

Thank you

Ya, hardly any warmth or ambience. Fault with this transcode, perhaps?

By the by, does anyone know where Ironfoot, Dragon/Sickness and Thrain fit into the sequence of things?
I think Dragon-Sickness is a suite but i'm not sure. Nah, not transcode, previews and other tracks released elsewhere had the same thing.

thanks!!!

The Hobbit is full and even adds more background about Middle Earth from the ROTK book and people complain again, WTF is wrong with people they dont fucking know their luck.

Because the added stuff is f*cking lame and cheesy. I was cringing the whole 2,5+ hours of Desolation

It seems like a great score, this one. Very big. I won't be seeing the movie, though. They won't fool me 3rd time

Thank you.

thanks for putting this up, great stuff here except the Rivendell action bit in "guardians of the three" is different to the film

1:00 minute in the clip and 3:25 in the track... seriously amazing revision

Anyone got the original M4A-files or even the digital booklet?
I will be in M4A with digital booklet December 8th.

I'm so goddamned worried about Tauriel, since she's created just for the films.
She's bound to not survive this trilogy

She should have never exist. I almost tear my eyes apart when they started the completely unnecessary and lame elf-darw love story. WTF Peter?


The Hobbit is full and even adds more background about Middle Earth from the ROTK book and people complain again, WTF is wrong with people they dont fucking know their luck.
Completely disagree. The Hobbit is one of the best adventure books ever. Perfect children literature while, light and funny, while here, what we got with the movies is a LOTR 2 with too much CGI and too many stupid elvish jumps.

About the OST, "I shall pass" until a better version is available.

Don't get me wrong. I am very happy for being able to watch The Hobbit at cinema. They are quite good films (or better than the 90% blockbuster garbage), but what I wanted is the book, which has a completely different mood than the LOTR; not The Hobbit+steroids. Hopefully someone will chop out the 3 extended Hobbit movies and will edit a 2 hours*2films version with just Bilbo there and back again.

Thank you!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Many thanks for the share!

It definitely needs an EP.

No, we just need TCR. lol

I will be in M4A with digital booklet December 8th.

great news vlad. thank you :)

Thank you kindly. :)

thanks

I saw the movie during the World Premiere, so this is what I can say:
The Ironfoot theme is split during the movie, the first part 0-1min50 is played when the Dwarves (Ironfoot and his army of 500 warriors) are fighting the orcs with the help of the elves.

Thank you.

Thanks a lot

Thank you kindly!

Thanks for sharing!

Does anyone know what the real quality is on this version? It sounds extremely muddy and I can't tell if it's an atrocious mix or a low quality rip (or both). Thanks for the wonderful link, by the way, the score is absolutely fantastic.

Many thanks, Christmas has come early for many of us!

Good enough, I think most of the music, if not all, is already in several tracks of the Special Edition, maybe it can be recreated with what's available.

It goes like this

END CREDITS
Ironfoot ending/Darkest Hour ending
Fire and Water Unreleased music (for the scene with the dwarves at the mountains during Smaugs attack)
Shores of the Long Lake 2nd part
Unreleased music (Alfrid and the Coins scene)
Ruins of Dale
Fire and Water Unreleased/Released music (the scene where Bain sees his father shoot arrows at Smaug, runs towards him and Bard fires his last normal arrow at Smaug)
Ironfoot again (the bit from 4:30-6:05)

Thanks :)

Don't we have a proper release of this now?

It should trump this lossy transcode.

Just saw this movie... It's like one big battle scene with not much of plot. The guy that played Saruman is literally 92 years old.

It's like one big battle scene with not much of plot.

Yes, because it's based off a very short book.
It was supposed to be a two-part movie (like Kill Bill), but turned into 3 parts.

The first movie is usually called "boring" because it's the establishment of the story and characters and the very start of the journey.
The second one people like more because it doesn't need to establish much and can get into much more action. Like with The Empire Strikes Back and Godfather part 2.

This one is the end of the story, and as in the book, it's all about the huge battle that takes place (only lasting a couple minutes in the Rankin/Bass animated feature). So it can really just focus on a lot of the action.

The plot continues, but you need to watch the first two; plus, it helps to have watched (and remembered) the Lord of the Rings trilogy, as a lot does allude to the trilogy.


The guy that played Saruman is literally 92 years old.

Yeah, Sir Christopher Lee has played Saruman since The Fellowship of the Ring.
Sir Ian McKellen also played Gandalf from the very beginning, too (now 75).
And Cate Blanchett reprising her role as Lady Galadrial.
And Hugo Weaving reprising his role as Lord Elrond.
And Sir Ian Holm reprising his role as the older Bilbo Baggins (now 82).

This series really isn't for new viewers and younger generations.
You have to be in it from The Fellowship.
And learn to disassociate a lot from the books, as it's an adapation that makes a lot of changes and takes a lot of creative liberties for the sake of not trying to bore anyone to death in theaters who don't read books.

Thank you so so much for this!

Can someone please reupload the mp3? Preferably on Mega?

Hello please link flac, mega

I dont see why people say its one big battle
when the battle doesnt even take up half of the movie

Can I have a MEGA link?

Thank you.
