I think many of us agree about the end credits. It would have been great if Williams had composed a proper suite, but even worse is it's inclusion on the OST. There is so much great music not on the album that could have easily been in place of "Mischief Managed."

Yeah there is a creepy little piece of music in POA I absoulutely love, but it is not in the OST. A part of it is made of like 8 guitar notes. I'll describe where it can be heard:

1. The scene where the twins Fred and George give Harry the Marauder's Map. Right after they simultaneously say "Mischief Managed, otherwise anyone can read it" is when you first hear it. It plays for the next minute when Harry sneaks to Hogsmeade with his invisibility cloak and ends some time where Ron and Hermione are talking while looking at the Shrieking Shack.

2. The best part of the music in the movie starts at night while Harry is in his bed exploring the Marauder's Map. After Ron wakes up from his nightmare and Harry tells him to go to sleep, he finds Peter Pettigrew's name in there. Then he goes to the hallway in hopes of seeing Pettigrew in person. It was awesome.

3. It can also be heard in the Shrieking Shack where Pettigrew is finally discovered, Remus, Sirius, the trio are there as well. It's around:

Remus: Peter you sold James and Lily to VOLDEMORT didn't you?
Peter: I didn't MEAN TO.....the Dark Lord...you have no idea of the weapons he possesses...

I want every single use of the Window to the Past theme that was in the film. That theme is incredible and I wanted more of it. And yes the credits suck horribly. However, I love both the Knight Bus and Aunt Marge's Waltz.

Peter Pettigrew's motif. That's a harpsichord, not a guitar.
