filmmusic 1,829 Posted June 11, 2016 Share Posted June 11, 2016 Is it only strange to me that Williams in this part of his career scores only Star Wars films and Spielberg films? I mean, do you think maybe noone else asks him to score his film? Because you know, this style is considered old-fashioned now so.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's 20%. Where did you get your figures? and if we get the last 3 years, it's 1 out of 3. In the next 3 years, according to imdb there are 4 films, all of which are Spielberg and SW. So, i think it's perfectly safe to say that in this part of his career he scores only SW and Spielberg movies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, the majority of his scores are Spielberg and SW, but, given The Book Thief, not exclusively. So why not be factually correct and say the "vast majority."

So, i think it's perfectly safe to say that in this part of his career he scores only SW and Spielberg movies. Well, at least Spielberg always offers him diversity in terms of genre and style, it's not like JW is always asked to repeat himself--quite the contrary, I'd say! Sure there are certain stylistic patterns that return from score to score, but it's safe to say his Spielberg output is pretty versatile and different. The fact he's still being asked to write scores for Star Wars and Indiana Jones sequels has much more to do with Hollywood's current state of things than Williams' will of doing different things. That being said, it looks like he's happy to have a full plate of many things, including concert music. I think it's quite remarkable that he's still this active at his age.

Disco Stu 15,495 Posted June 26, 2016 Share Posted June 26, 2016 Something I just realized: assuming Williams scores "The Kidnapping of Edgardo Mortara," I think Indy 5 might end up being the 30th film in the Spielberg/Williams collaboration. If it ends up being the last, it'd be a hell of a number to go out on. Exactly 30 Williams scores. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least Goths liked The Cult, The Cure, Sisters Of Mercy, The Mission, etc. Look at the daughter in "The Inctedibles". That's what I'm talking about.
