    Amazon wants to make a Lord of the Rings TV show http://variety.com/2017/tv/news/lord-of-the-rings-amazon-1202606519/
    If they do this, then we're going to have two separate soundtracks to fill Middle-earth, and this bothers me. I'm not sure if I can handle having two different takes on what The Shire sounds like. Also, the Amazon shows I've seen have had pitiful budgets, I hope that's not the case with their big stuff :(
    I hope they make it.

      Editing … Of course it is too soon, but US companies never get tired of earning of a lot of $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$especially if they earned already a lot of $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ not that long ago with such formular, to squeeze even more $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ by making prequels are a few years ago. So a ripoff is their creative solution to earn $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$and possiblyy even more $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$to satisfy their greed for a short time, until repeat in 2024!

      Editing … Anything pre-Jackson's trilogy isn't iconic, though. It's like a PS1 or N64 adaptation coming up with a new soundtrack, it's not gonna be what people connect to the fiction. The readaptation can't just recycle the same music either, or it gives off the impression of being set in the same canon. I've often thought that Narnia might deserve a TV adaptation, but then we'd lose this OST https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f_sMuo8Lujg

      Editing … The soundtrack is essential to bringing the world to life. This is why high-escapism media like Pirates of the Caribbean, Lord of the Rings, Narnia and Star Wars, even when surrounded by an industry so buried in temp music, have to deliver memorable themes and motifs. A fantasy movie with a generic soundtrack honestly fails to immerse you into its fantasy world.

      Editing … YOU EVER SEE A SCI-FI OR FANTASY MOVIE WITH LICENSED MUSIC? THAT BOTHERS ME. Licensed music is lazy 80% (citation needed) of the time it's used in any film, usually it just means that the director doesn't realize his composer's capable of delivering the same feeling with a new, memorable track. Guardians of the Galaxy can do licensed tracks though because those tracks are diegetic, they're actually a part of the film's world, not a "post effect" just for the audience.

      Editing … I don't mind licensed music if it's licensed music that I like and it fits the movie, but that's usually not true. I like soundtrack music more than real music, as is evident from my favorite music list, which I guess I should post here, come to that.
