John Williams is also the man behind Indiana Jones and Jurassic Park.  I love his work.

You're assuming I've already watched the 4th HP movie.  And Hedwig's Theme is like the HP theme.

HA! If you think that's bad, the same person (Patrick Doyle) is composing the music for Eragon! :o

Anyway, John Williams is my favorite composer! He's probably never doing Harry Potter music again, though...

are you serious?!? the music for HP4 sucked! Eragon is too good of a book to have bad movie music.

Well, I don't find Patrick Doyle's music to be terrible, but I think that, short and sweet and to the point, John Williams is better.

Now, for Order of the Phoenix, Nick (for short) Hooper is composing the music. I fear Warner Bros. is in deep do-do this time...

Warner Bros. is evil, I'm telling you! :o :'(

Harry Potter was a good movie when it first came out.  Now it seems to be taking a nose dive.  Now, if Peter Jackson was directing HP, he probably would stick with it until the end.  And he probably would've kept John Williams, or persauded him to stay on.  Did John Williams leave HP willingly, or was he fired?

I think it was because of schedule conflicts. I'm not too sure about OotP, though. :'(

I agree with you about HP movies going downhill; I thought that TCoS was the best one until the others started to get worse.

Well, I haven't seen Goblet of Fire yet.  Should I watch it?

I don't find it a bad movie. You should probably give it a try. Be forewarned: the music is VERY NOTICABLY different! After the first minute into the film, you'll notice it. :'(

John Williams didn't dp it, so the music done by the other person, How do we say it? Put the Harry Potter theme to shame. Thats the nicest way I could put it.
