That’s just stupid.
The best movie score of all time is “King Kong.”

I’m partial to Lawrence of Arabia. Lawrence, Lawrence of Arabia.
He was an English guy.
He came to fight the Turkish.

Absurd!
I don’t even have an idea what LOTR music is! (No, I have not watched all of them, but music sticks with me. If I don’t recall it, it could not have been that memorable. Like “Man of Steel”.)

Good, but pretty much a 1-trick soundtrack.

If anyone has LOTR The Two Towers extended version, listen to the music at the end. It goes on for about an hour, with the credits rolling, and it’s fantastic.
