**Movie Music Trivia SPECIAL EDITION** Can't Post

Today I present a special edition Movie Music Trivia Game. The current game, #4, is still active.


Again, these clips are not actually music but sounds from the movie.

Odd sounds.

Quite odd sounds.

Each sound is very short. They range in length from under a second to 6 seconds... and from 9 KB to 97KB.

I think I have the scene for each identified but I'm not sure. I thought you could tell me if I'm right. I'll post each clip in it's own subthread.


WINNING PRIZE:

Participants will be gain entrance into the exclusive Brotherhood/Sisterhood of the Pants.



CONTEST RULES:
  • Prizes are not redeemable in cash and must be accepted as awarded.
  • Decisions of the contest judges are final - no substitutions will be available.
  • This contest is subject to all federal, provincial and municipal laws, the laws of gravity, Murphy's Law, in-laws, laws of attraction, and Jude Law.
  • In accepting the prize, the winner acknowledges that Magpie, TheOneRing.net, Peter Jackson, Philippa Boyens, Fran Walsh, Saul Zaentz, The Tolkien Estate, and J.R.R. Tolkien may not be held liable for any loss, damages or injury associated with accepting or using this prize(s). Bob Shaye may.
  • Void where prohibited.

Just heard this [In reply to] Can't Post

(been indulging in a trilogy viewing over the weekend).

It's Eowyn taking the practice strokes with her sword, before Aragorn comes in and says "You have some skill with a blade". (I think, anyway!)

...and the sails were drawn up, and the wind blew,
and slowly the ship slipped away down the long grey firth;
and the light of the glass of Galadriel that Frodo bore
glimmered and was lost.

Got it (I think) [In reply to] Can't Post

It sounds like the Dead sort of phasing in and out of visibility inside the Paths of the Dead.

Got to be [In reply to] Can't Post

a hobbit, not a Man. The Men wouldn't call for help like that - bad for the image! I think it's Merry or Pippin, inside Old Man Willow.

I agree with Galadriel [In reply to] Can't Post

I'm going for "all of the above". Is this by any chance the famous 'Wilhelm scream'? I know it's in the movies, at Helm's Deep I think, but I've never known just where...

I'm stumped on the rest for the moment. But on one or two I feel frustratingly close! I'll come back later and see if something hits me.

These are very neat, by the way. Thanks for a fun game!

As long as I get to pick which pair and who goes in them..

A nice April 1 music quiz. Thanks for the fun!

Now I will go off to try and figure out what they are all -- whoosh, whoosh, foo.

That sounds more like the banner in Rohan to me... [In reply to] Can't Post

...when it gets ripped off the flagpole.

But that's probably not right.

My second guess would be Gollum's loincloth flapping around.

If I have to pick one of the ones you posted, I'd go with the Troll music.

I've thought of two [In reply to] Can't Post

spits it could be, but I don't really think I've hit on the right one.

One's Gimli tasting the orc blood, and the other's Gollum disgusted at the thought of fried fish.

But I don't think either of them is quite right.

So I'll go with C, the fearsome pirate going up against Bob Shaye. And I don't give Shaye much of a chance! ;-)
