Popular Post Disco Stu 15,495 Posted May 24, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted May 24, 2017 Reposting this here from @mrbellamy Looks like Williams will be composing (or rather, has composed) the source music (diegetic music) for The Last Jedi!

mrbellamy 6,278 Posted May 24, 2017 Share Posted May 24, 2017 So I wonder why he declined doing the cantina song for TFA if he's up for it now. Maybe he was still continuing to recover from his surgery through the year and wanted to simply focus on the underscore, but now that he's presumably feeling better he just decided to go for it?

Remember Hollywood people give politic (i.e. not actually true) explanations for things. My guess is Abrams wanted to help write the song with Lin M. and that was that.

Will 2,215 Posted May 24, 2017 Share Posted May 24, 2017 Yeah, I saw this news earlier. Very excited - I'm sure there will be some awesome source music for Canto Bight! crumbs 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crumbs 14,306 Posted May 24, 2017 Share Posted May 24, 2017 Yep, whatever happens on Canto Bight it clearly involves some cool alien opera music. Must have been an exciting proposition for Williams if he insisted on doing it, considering he usually palmed prequel source music off to his son. Nathan Johnson might be a bit disappointed that he couldn't contribute in some capacity though. I wonder if, secretly, Rian didn't get the answer he wanted?

Disco Stu 15,495 Posted May 24, 2017 Author Share Posted May 24, 2017 Maybe he let him record some sound effects. Like TVs falling off of roofs or washing machines. It's Nate's specialty. crumbs 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crumbs 14,306 Posted May 25, 2017 Share Posted May 25, 2017 I'm sure they could give him a Stormtrooper voice cameo. Something something T-18s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post artguy360 1,843 Posted May 25, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted May 25, 2017 JW's diegetic music is much more interesting to me than random person's diegetic music in an otherwise JW score.

Popular Post mrbellamy 6,278 Posted May 25, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted May 25, 2017 New Vanity Fair article ("What's in Last Jedi and What's Not") reported this now, same info. Quote The Force Awakens included the galactic-dub tour de force “Jabba Flow,” co-written and performed by Abrams and Hamilton creator Lin-Manuel Miranda, but The Last Jedi’s music was written entirely by John Williams, the franchise’s composer since the beginning. Johnson had considered enlisting his cousin, Nathan Johnson, who composed the music for all three of Rian’s prior films, to write some incidental cues. “But,” he says, “I was delighted to learn that John was actually keen to do those.” Not just "happy" to do it, but keen! KEEN! Cerebral Cortex, Once, Will and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom 4,651 Posted May 25, 2017 Share Posted May 25, 2017 For all the pre-talk about TFA cantina music, it was a huge letdown. Was there a song written not in the movie or something? What is in the movie is just bland. Will 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
