Just to totally ruin musical continuity, who should score the final Harry Potter movie?

[Rabrrrrrr]

and by final, I'm talking "Deathly Hallows Part 2", so that even the musical continuity is utterly fucked up not just from the first six books to the seventh, but also between the two parts of the seventh book.


I'm thinking they should just string together a bunch of early 19th century American revivalist hymns played too heavy-handed on a crappy piano and sung by an out-of-tune-but-earnest soprano, and that they music shouldn't even be edited to the scenes on screen. The more the same music bleeds from one scene into another, the better, that's what I say.

1. Modern classical music would work

atonal and dissonant.

[Fire Walk With Me]

2. Why not use "Powerhouse" for every moment requiring music?

Nothin' but power chords and loud screeching.

4. The Dust Brothers.

A nice electronic score is exactly what it needs.

5. Harry Potters music is "Scored" , thats such a strong word to

describe such rubbish.

9. That sounds about right.

Well, either that, or "Five for Fighting".

10. If it's about ruining continuity

Go with a soundtrack that features Philip Glass, Pet Shop Boys, 50 Cent, the Academy of St. Martin-in-the-Fields, Toby Keith, the Boston Police Gaelic Column Pipe Band, Slipknot, and John Tesh.
