Powell's theme that sounds like Conan is actually closer to an old English folk melody that VW used in one of his works and ELP used in Touch & Go (song from the '80s).

And "Masquerade" from The Phantom of the Opera.

Saw the film today. both movie and score were incredible. Couple cues that I wish found their way into the CD as they are quieter more reflective variations of Valka's and hiccup's theme. Maybe an expanded score on the horizon.
Anyhow, for me, 9.5/10 for the film. The only thing I wish they did was make it a little longer and lingered on a couple quieter scenes. It was very briskly paced film which isn't a bad thing but when the direction and acting is so good, you want to savor those moments before the actions takes hold.

I assume the end credits was a post production cut and paste job from the existing score? Anyone know which tracks make up the end credits?
I heard some of the EC music was taken from alternates/film versions...

Whilst the sequel is not a turkey like BABE IG IN THE CITY, it aint no EMPIRE STRIKES BACK.
The first film was and will always remain a unique, magical, and moving motion picture experience. THe score is already a certified classic.
"2" really adds little to the saga and repeats much of "1". The flying scenes - so thrilling in "1'
- come off as repetitious and boring here.
But, it is an honorable film, made with good intentions (unlike the cynical, degrading sequels currently playing)
The best thing about the (unneccessary) "2" is we get to hear more of John Powell's amazing music.
I hope they dont make anymore in the series. Let it be , Dreamworks

This score needs to be nominated for an Oscar right now.
Does it even qualify, given how much of it is based on melodies from the first score?
I thought the rule against that was only in place very briefly, so that it blocked The Two Towers from being nominated, but it was gone by the following year, when Return of the King was nominated and won.
