Scarpia 132 Posted December 9, 2015 Share Posted December 9, 2015 After all, Vangelis' Chariots of Fire got the award against Raiders of the Lost Ark in 1982.Anyways, the most important thing is that we got Liberace playing arrangements for all the nominated scores.

Gruesome Son of a Bitch 6,488 Posted December 10, 2015 Share Posted December 10, 2015 I can sort of understand the confusion with the second Star Wars teaser and that TV spot. However, this sounds absolutely nothing like Williams. I mean, maybe if he composed it, handed it to someone else and said, "Make this sound as completely unlike my work as you possibly can!" crumbs 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will 2,215 Posted December 11, 2015 Share Posted December 11, 2015 Vote and discuss! My thoughts:- Some here have called the melody that is repeated throughout the teaser "generic." Perhaps, but I still think it could plausibly be a Williams theme. However...- The orchestrations, at least for the most part, sound nothing like Williams. Modern trailer music house stuff has a certain style (some would call it "epic") and there are several spots where you can clearly hear this style. The maestro just does not write this way. So this is certainly not Williams music un-tampered with. - In summary, the teaser's music is definitely not composed and recorded by Williams without significant changes, but it could, I suppose, be composed by a trailer music house based off of a Williams theme. I personally think Williams had no involvement whatsoever in this teaser music -- I was hoping that we would get something similar to Hook or Harry Potter, but unfortunately Disney seems to have gone a different direction.- Several years ago we had an interesting situation where Williams had already recorded a lot of music for Tintin (back in February 2010) and yet the music heard in the Tintin teaser (released in May 2011) did not have any involvement from Williams. But when a new trailer was released in July 2011 it included a short snippet of Williams' score, and future trailers included even more. Spielberg's film's final trailers tend to feature Williams music (if the scoring sessions have already taken place) and hopefully the same will be true for The BFG. Until then, though -- if the BFG teaser did indeed not have Williams music -- it looks like we'll be waiting at least a few more months to hear the premiere of Williams' score. That moment can't come soon enough. Although we will have TFA to keep us occupied for a while . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
