halaluya thank you thank you so much for loving this masterful score as much i do and let this be a lesson to those dispickable doyle haters that yes some of the themes of the first three were missing but lets not forget from amuro's own words that williams had leave out the themes on the POA soundtrack with the excecptions of hedwig's theme as well so therefore it sets the basis what doyle did with the GOF score leave out the old themes but still have the ever reconazible hedwig's theme intact and of coarse the new harry potter nicolase hooper will continue that trind as well on behalf myself and the more loyal doyle fans i would like to thank you amuro for loving this score for what it is regardless of its continuity hoopla so thank you so much for likeing this score and together we will teach those schondruls a lesson for bitching doyle like crazy we will win the day long live harry potter music
