So, the score is currently being mixed at 5 Cat Studios. I'll try to update the thread with stuff related to the music as I get them. But for now:

Thoughts? Feelings? Expectations? Anything in particular you're looking forward to/not looking forward to?

Three versions of the same track. One of the 6 new themes for the movie.

Any theories as to what it could be the theme of? I'm currently thinking either the theme for me 8) , or the Hidden World itself.

John Powell is a genius, and I'm very sure whatever he comes up with will be amazing.

I really hope they don't have a lyrical song in the film, like they did with Where No One Goes in HTTYD2. It's fine for credit music and trailer music, but I really wasn't a fan of plonking it in the middle of the film.

Probably more reflective of the different cues at different parts of the movie. I suspect the soundtrack release won't be as extensive in track count. Probably not even in total length.

From what I've heard of the music I've heard on Instagram, I'm sure JP will pull off some amazing music as usual. I just hope it follows the example of the first movie rather than the second.

It's hard to imagine what song he'll choose to end the series with. :/
