The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug Production Blog #14 (2013) - Peter Jackson Movie HD 

The film's entire score deserved an Oscar.

The entire score of both LOTR and The Hobbit never fail to give me goosebumps. Pure awesomeness.

I can't believe it's been five years already

Just realized that Peter Jackson is the greatest couchpotato there ever was. Nobody has the talent or the amount of success that man has in that field.

This was seven years ago!!!!! Time flies so fast before you know it it’s gonna be 10 then 20 years. I love the Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit both will never be forgotten. They were really good at bringing these books to life so I do wish that they would create something about the middle earth based on one of Tolkien’s books. 😊

8:37 - the pure, vibrant joy and admiration in this man's eyes are so incredibly precious

5:20 Sons of Durin

In my ipod right now I have the soundtrack for all the Lord of the rings movies, and the hobbit. That music will never leave my ipod.... ever. LOL! Love that stuff.

oh my god Pippin and Merry. I literally just squealed like a fangirl.... what is this

Cant wait till the next production blog, so interesting to see all these behind the scenes, just makes u appreciate the films even more~

Music brings so much life and emption to a movie. It tells us more about the scene, when we see soemthing is it foreboding, ominous, good, scary, cheerful etc. Is the person we are seeing a dark character, someone powerful, someone vulnerable....

I love that peter Jackson’s only “diva” item is his brown couch 😂 love it!

My husband and I went to New Zealand on our honeymoon in 2011. That is one of the most beautiful places on earth and the people there are so nice.

LOL as a musician I can TOTALLY relate to the musician's salute. XD

I love how throughout these blogs peter is bare feet 😂😂 bloody kiwi

Most people just don't appreciate the music in the movies but without it there would be a BIG difference

Hobbit movie was so awesome. They said that when you hear the dragon talk you shit rocks. The Great Wall of China came out of me.

the song for lake town is hauntingly beautiful

So many components go into a movie. The music guides and unfolds emotions. So cool to see the behind the scenes ❤️

watching them playing with so much dedication to create music for hobbit it's impressive!!!

Howard's work on Middle earth is the best work of any musician on a particular project.. two very different journey's . the diversity is a lot .. brilliant.. !!

*Phone rings in a room full of seasoned professionals* Everyone laughs.

This was by far my favorite production blog. Fascinating stuff.

I always get goosebumps when hearing music from Middle-Earth, especially The Wolves of Isengard from The Lord of the Rings but mostly when Bard says 'The King beneath the mountain shall come into his home' and the House of Durin plays, I can hear the music and tell you what happens in the scene, Howard Shore is a genius

PLEASE MORE BLOGS, PETER! I CAN'T LIVE WITHOUT MORE OF THEM! Movie 3 stuff? plz!

Merry and Pippin are so cute!

Peter and all involved… thank you for doing all these little extras for us. I have absolutely adored the hobbit and Lord of the rings since I was a college student in 1967 and first read the books. You have produced an incredible retelling that I know, Mr. Tolken would have been pleased to see. The music and everything is so magical and beyond our imaginations and expectations. you should all be so proud of yourselves. I’m glad we live in this time to be with you all.

need...new... vlogs... must have more peter jackson comedy in my life

God I don't want these videos to end ! I lose track of time watching that ! How can someone come up in their head with such grandiose music ? I wonder how much they pay them to create such masterpiece...

I love when he picks up the phone and yells as if he was married

peter jackson is amazing. never seen such a talent. peter jackson and james cameron are from different world. extra ordinary human beings

Thank you for making a whole blog about the music! That was so awesome!!

Love this movie so much! Thank you so much for making such a wonderful movie!

Are you kidding me?!?! The concertmaster is from Finland! OMG this is AWESOME, I didn't know! And thank you for shooting the double basses pretty much, I play that lovely instrument! ;))

The music is the hearth of this movie. Its breathtaking

simply beautiful and thank you

I cant believe Im here live and kicking as film history is being made,so awesome.

Yes, another production blog :D

Howard Shore is a genius. His music is 🔥🔥🔥🔥

I have watched Desolation of Smaug 8 times.

It is amazing to see all the parts that go into making a great movie.

I wasn't aware it was legal to simply re-upload vlogs from Peter Jackson's channel with no mention of the original.

it's surely took me a long time to watch this but I'm very glad that I did now... I'm so in love with the movie and all the people who put so much effort into it!!

I have all the music from all the Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit films. From The Desolation of Smaug, I think my favorite piece is the 'Kili/Tauriel' theme: Feast of Starlight. Love love love this music! Thank you Howard Shore, you bloody brilliant genius.

I hope my poor and difficult life once Mr. Peter Jackson finds a minute and give me your shoes to clear .....

I love Peter Jackson, I love actors, I love soundtracks, I love everything! GRAZIE MILLEE

2:40 i LOVE the music

I love ur movie so much Pete ... thanks for making middle-earth world alive

When i saw pippin there! Made My day xD

I get goosebumps since I was 5 years old for LotR/Hobbit movies. Im now 22.

I really enjoyed this.. Including the lake town theme.

Howard Shore est un compositeur incroyablement talentueux, ses musiques sont magnifiques et elles me donne des frissons. Grand bravo aux musiciens également ❤

Jeez, Smaug’s growl sounds like a Chevy!

As a future professional flutist/orchestra musician this would be sooo cool to do in the future

4:53 Everyone was laughing, EVERYONE.

Which video blog has the clip of Dwalin insulting Thranduil and his crown? "Look at that pointy crown." Then, Legolas says something like "Looks good, Dad."

CAN'T WAIT TO SEE THE LAST ONE !

This is beautiful.

vesa-matti leppänen...Glad to see a finnish person working on the film

God...great playing!

8:35 - Ed Balls cameo - didnt know Ed Balls progressed from some dabbling on a cheap electronic keyboard to full blown orchestra member on another instrument (violin it looks like).

The house of durin theme is awesone.. but my favorite is " On the doorstep " !

I love the hobbit so much! ☺️

3:20 i got chills

This was uploaded ages ago

the most hardworking people in making the movie is the people who is behind in this production.

I wonder if Peter Jackson want to make live-action from final fantasy series, that would be awesome.

ITS JULY, PETER. WHERE IS THE NEXT VIDEO? YOU ARE LATE A DAY. I HAVE WAITED ENOUGH. I WILL NOT WAIT ANOTHER MONTH. YOU HAVE UNTIL THE REST OF THE MONTH. THEN, I SHALL BECOME UPSET.

Awww man *O* my passion for music and violin has grown stronger

Oh my gosh I want to be in a soundtrack orchestra one day now. D :

okay they actually added a set of gamelan sounds. that's great!

Jacksons job looks hard

The fact they use gamelan, i feel so proud

When Peetah is in the Wellington theatre he never has shoes on- weird

wow,,, so much work for one movie!... Artwork, design, interior design, cloths, personalitys, artist, charathers, music, muscians, mixers, alot a money, voice actings, sounds, planing before the movie and so on.... that is art .... mostly everyone talks about CGI but that comes later on when everything is done... i may thinking how WB did with Dark knight and disney avangers.... wow

I'm waiting for battle five armies vlog :)

The feast of starlight is my absolute favorite

really wow

Desholashion of Shmaug

The intro music reminds me of old fashioned horror music

I think that the Laketown Theme is the best one xD

2:43 “Hi Mom!”

Billy and Dominic!!!!!

Desolation of Shmaug? 1:10

awesome

i want the last part!

@Laura Kl. It's the track titled "Flies and Spiders", close to the beginning of the track.

Great job!!! It must be verry hard..I bow down👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👍👍👍👍👍 💖💖💖💖💖

6:24 HEY THATS WERE I LIVE

I am going to see the hobbit 3 this friday!!!!!!

Vesa-Matti LEPPÄNEN, concert master, not Lepännen, so often in Finnish names they double the wrong consonant. Corrected in the next blog.

ITS BEEN 2 YEARS ALREADY

WHERE THE FUCK ARE THE NEXT BLOGS? THE FINAL FILM IS OUT IN LIKE 2 MONTHS. I REQUIRE A MISSING YEAR OF BLOGS THANKS.

THEY USE GAMELAN TOO???!!!! WOW... I AM PROUD INDONESIAN/JAVANESSE :"D

The tune from 2:37 is from somewhere in lineage 2 but i can't put my finger where exactly...

At about 3:20 I can’t believe we get to see them again!

OMG, Javanese Gamelan!!!

Really though. Movies would not have been the same without soundtracks especially incredible ones such as this.

Peter doesn't like shoes :-).

LMAO!! 5:45
