Well yes, but give any film compser 11 hours to work with and they'll create something outstanding.

You mean 11 years right?

its excellent, but what's he done since?

zimmer is consistent over a very long time period despite his lack of live symphonic use.

i'll assume shore will be working on the hobbit?

He did Twilight eclipse, which is why i added 'LOTR score' before the '>'

This was an accusation levelled at Zimmer. Personally, I think he was framed.
