A very enjoyable, rousing Score.

I hope John Powell gets an Oscar for this, if he didn’t get it for the original score.

Solium, I listened on Apple Music, which was for this release in Atmos = 24 bit/192 kHz (much higher than CD quality), and did not find it muddy. I will check against Spotify, but I think there will be some compression there, as it is only AAC 256 kbit/s (1/4 of CD quality) if Premium, or 128 for free. I do agree its louder, but I find that the case with most modern recordings.
Edit - I played through a Bluesound Nano on one system, and a WiiM Pro Plus on another. Apple for sure sounds better, but Spotify didn't sound terrible.

A live-action sequel is already underway for 2027.
Jason...Justin...On Your Marks...Get Set...G
no doubt, nevermind the director of this film and the original derided studios and directors for doing exactly what they just did, and suckers enable this nonsense, well, not always, as Snow White showed. But, yes, the audience that supposedly complains about the lack of original films, well, it is largely just not a genuine belief, because the mass audience repeatedly supports non-original and reboot films and largely does NOT support original films.
But- yesh-
DeBlois said during an online Q&A at the 2020 Annecy International Animation Film Festival that he is not interested in re-dos and thought studios were being "lazy."

Well a sequel was already planned ahead of time. The companies always do that as a PR stunt. So it worked out for them this time. I wasn't one to say it was going to bomb or anything. I'm sure its an okay movie and people want a reason to go back to the theater. Moana 2 was really subpar yet made a billion so there's that. From what I heard Lilo and Stitch is pretty bad too. I think there are more misses than hits though. But all the studios need are one or two billion dollar hits to continue down this course. I have no interest in the film though I have almost zero interesting in what Hollywood is producing nowadays. The positives? At least we will get a few more John Powell scores and he is the soul person keeping classical orchestral scores alive.
Yeah, and the 'success' in just numbers I guess is great for Universal, but it is not great the the movie audience for the future, it just means more reboots with tie-in cross marketing at Burger King. The audience, like the film makers, is like what DeBlois previously said- they are lazy. This stuff is like movie baby food, pre-chewed, pre-digested. They could have as easily spent that $150 million on an original story, but that would have required more work, and more risk, so, baby-food.
