I was watching the teaser, and lo! I hear Lux Aeterna from
requiem for a dream...

I don`t know why but, even if is really great song, I'm
bothered about it...

Well maybe I'm just stupid...

I am trying as hard as possible to not view any previews for
the new Lord of the Rings. I want the whole movie to be a
surprise when I see it this month. Oh boy oh boy!!!
*dances*

The previews are not showing much...just the typical cool
scenes where legolas jumps arounds and shoots arrows =D

Well, when I see previews I remember them. So I'll be
watching the movie, and I can piece together what is going
to happen. Very frustrating.

well i wasnt really bothered by it, its a kick ass song..
although it seems oddly placed, unless theres a change of
story and frodo becomes a heroin addict

maybe this magical ring is just some metaphor for drug
addiction hahaha
BONK

heres why...

A. You have good ears. Yes, the "Requiem" score was used,
and yes, it was re-orchestrated. I contacted the AM's expert
source David Bondelevich, award-winning music editor and
lecturer at the University of Southern California. He at
first assumed that "but re-scoring it would be prohibitively
expensive," but his contact at the Ant Farm, which created
the trailer, said otherwise.

Nathan D. Duvall, music producer at the Ant Farm, explained,
"In many cases a trailer is created in two days and there
isn't enough time to create original music. With 'Two
Towers,' the editor who cut the trailer fell in love with
the 'Requiem' score but found that it didn't quite adhere to
the typical trailer music formula. To solve this we created
a larger orchestration that arched to a big resolution.
'Requiem' is a more intimate feature yet it has a haunting
melody that easily translates to a more broad feature in
'Two Towers.' The 'Rings' score is well placed in the first
minute of the 'Two Towers' trailer but the editor found that
she needed something different since 'Towers' is a different
act in the trilogy. Once you have introduced the known
characters and reminded the audience of their separate
journeys we needed to depart from the old score. Howard
Shore had not yet completed his score for 'Two Towers' by
the time we finished our trailer so we couldn't use any of
the new music. As far as creative decisions go, our partner
here at the Ant Farm who holds the Rings account, Barbara
Glazer, supported our attempt with the revised 'Requiem'
theme. And all creative decisions are finally approved by
[LOTR director] Peter Jackson."

I can't see it being anything less than stunning...Jacksons
surpassed himself with FOTR; TTT should be likewise...

The trailer is just delicious...
