Talk:Howard Shore

message: I was watching High Fidelity the other day, and I noticed that in one scene the music is the same as Shore uses for the Lord of the Rings. Anyone else notice this?

message: Is the comment about Jurassic Park really even needed?  As I recall, it didn't used to include the qualifier that the criticisms were few and far between... that bit helps, but considering how many film critics and musicians hail Shore's music as brilliant original works, is there any reason to mention the Jurassic Park bit?

text: I agree as well. Composers imitate other composers' work as well as their own so often, it would be impossible to name all the occurances fairly. And honestly, John Williams? Listen to the Star Wars, Indiana Jones, Harry Potter, and Jurasssic Park soundtracks and tell me there aren't huge similiarities between all of them. Also considering how much more extensive the Lord of the Rings soundtracks are compared to Jurassic Park, this comment is really not needed. Kendall 06:19, 30 March 2006 (UTC)

text: I see you have put the Jurassic mention back in the article, as well as a mention that he hadn't been nominated for an Oscar before LotR (is this really necessary?).  Doing a quick Google search reveals NO relationship between JP and LotR.  Anyway, the RotK soundtrack is ranked 1432nd on Amazon, while Jurassic Park is ranked 9700th.  Either way, while anyone is free to edit Wikipedia, a 1-3 vote against having it in the article is by no means a consensus to include the JP mention.  (Just to be clear, I love and regularly listen to both the LotR and JP soundtracks.  Personally, I feel that Williams is the greatest film composer, but there's no need to knock Shore, who's LotR scores equal and perhaps surpass many of Williams scores.)

replies: text: I intend to remove the 3 lines in question from this article unless there is strong opposition: However Shore was not nominated for any Oscars until Lord of the Rings. and Some critics have noted similarities between Shore's score and John Williams's score for Jurassic Park. and Shore was criticised however for failing to show up in some of his concerts, while others were cancelled.

thread_title:  Jurassic Park? 

message: I think the comment "Despite this, Shore has a cameo near the end of King Kong" is a little misleading.  Principal photography would have been carried out much earlier in the movie's life, before the composer was replaced from the scoring.  The "Despite this" suggests some form of continuing relationship which may or may not be accurate.

message: End of first paragraph 2001-2006:
The music editor on the trilogy was Suzana Peric.[13][14] An excerpt from The Bridge of Khazad-Dûm was used in a teaser for 2013's Superman film, Man of Steel.[15]
