They also want the soundtrack to mostly rely on old themes. I know, but they just took absolutely fucking ages to say it and when they did it was almost incomprehensible.

Arpy 4,145 Posted November 8, 2016 Share Posted November 8, 2016 I don't know how many comments I've seen where they write off TFA as a "boring" score, pining for the sound of the trailer to be in the film.

As @Jay noted TFA did. Perhaps all the reused themes will force them to make a custom FYC like with TFA.

All that's missing is Indiana Jones, and he'll probably get the gig on the fifth movie... Well, in that sense he is already the next John Williams. He's the go-to guy now for all the major projects, it seems. "he'll probably get the gig on the fifth movie" Let's think positively! JW's already been announced for 5!

leeallen01 2,133 Posted November 8, 2016 Share Posted November 8, 2016 Yeah I heard him make a joke of the mispronunciation at a concert. It's pronounced Alex-arnd Dess-plah. Even Giacchino doesn't correct people any more. He's clearly sick of doing it. I used to say to myself at every concert or event that I heard his name spoken aloud, "it's Juh-Keen-O! Not Jia-Cheeno."

Miz 139 Posted November 8, 2016 Share Posted November 8, 2016 Not many Europeans can read and pronounce a variety of European languages... but watching Ameericahns try is still a hoot. (I learned French in school and travelled in France a little, and have lived in Italy with my grandparents-in-law, so I think I got these two composers spelled out before I was told. I think).

I used to say to myself at every concert or event that I heard his name spoken aloud, "it's Juh-Keen-O! Not Jia-Cheeno." The propper italian pronunciaion for those letters is more similar to the second one, or a mix... Jia-Keen-O i think sounds more like it. I mean, 'Gia' in italian has no 'U' near sound whatsoever... As in 'Giaccomo' Now...if Giacchino's name is a variant of the correct form Gioachino ('Joachim') as it seems to be (https://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gioacchino#cite_note-behind-1) then it would be more similar to Juh-keen-O. But it is strange, because americanised spanish surnames, like 'Martines', 'Rodrigues'.... people say it as they write it, they do not use the correct original pronunciation with 'Z' instead of 'S'.
