Nick Parker 3,040 Posted February 16, 2018 Share Posted February 16, 2018 That's awesome! I seem to remember the last one having a lot of great insights on his thought process, confirming and/or addressing things people were speculating about. I bet he'll open up on some aspects of the score that have been dividing JWFan. Will 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post artguy360 1,843 Posted February 16, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted February 16, 2018 Ugh why did Jim feed JW the same boring line about writing with pencil and paper? JW's spoken on this subject so many times already. Edit: JW pretty much confirmed that he wants Ep 9 to be his last SW score. He said "9 will be quite enough for me, and Disney will probably want to take it further." And JW doesn't believe what Kylo Ren said about Rey's parents. He hopes Ep 9 will reveal who her parents really are. chinaismine, Will, Cerebral Cortex and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

artguy360 1,843 Posted February 16, 2018 Share Posted February 16, 2018 Jim is not digging into the music at all. They have barely discussed the score. It's always good to hear JW do an interview, but this one has revealed nothing about the music so far. Chewy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nick Parker 3,040 Posted February 16, 2018 Share Posted February 16, 2018 On "Chrome Dome", and yeah, it's basically been a listening party. This is shaping to be as disappointing as the score itself, and my third marriage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chen G. 3,943 Posted February 22, 2018 Share Posted February 22, 2018 For anyone who's too lazy to listen to the whole thing, I think its a good idea to summarize it: There isn't too much musical substance about the score, themes, etcetra to be found here, but the disucssion is an interesting one, nonetheless. Williams sounds great, and he's really funny in this! They mostly talk about this score as a point in John's career more than in and of itself; mention his number of award nominations, his work on the whole series and its impact on symphonic film scoring, etcetra. They talked a bit about Carrie Fisher, not in terms of writing music for her appearances, but more in terms of Williams' recollections of her, and his impression of her scenes in the film. That kind of stuff. Ricard 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miguel Andrade 1,260 Posted February 22, 2018 Share Posted February 22, 2018 Can't check it right now, but I assume that, as usual, this is last week's program sans the music excerpts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TownerFan 4,983 Posted February 22, 2018 Author Share Posted February 22, 2018 Yes, it is. Another interesting tidbit is that JW confirmed again he will do Episode 9 next year and that will be "quite enough" for him, despite Disney wanting to continue the series.

Chen G. 3,943 Posted February 22, 2018 Share Posted February 22, 2018 51 minutes ago, TownerFan said: that will be "quite enough" for him. Oh, yes, that was an important thing he said. But than, I never expected him to score films that are outside of the main stories, anyway. Although he could continue writing an occasional theme for some of the spinoffs.

crumbs 14,300 Posted February 22, 2018 Share Posted February 22, 2018 Fun interview. Would've liked more discussion about TLJ itself (the score is scarcely discussed at all) but Williams sounds in good spirits. I take it that the mystery composer at the end was probably Desplat? Williams seemed to know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bollemanneke 3,337 Posted February 22, 2018 Share Posted February 22, 2018 I especially liked the part where he praises today's atmospheric non-thematic scores. I'd be even more interested to hear what such an infinitely superior composer really thinks about the scores being written today, though. For me, this atmospheric quality is exactly what makes them utterly useless. Jurassic Shark 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of the composers he interviewed earlier in the week (Desplat and Zimmer were two of them) said something nice about Williams - I can't recall exactly what it was. The interviewer just said something like "a composer I recently spoke to said...." Williams laughed and said "I think I know who said that." I think it was near the end of the interview if memory serves. Zimmer came to my mind for no particular reason really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've listened to the other interviews and the only composer I remember discussing Williams was Desplat, so perhaps it was him. But as you mention, it sounds like something Zimmer would say.

I could listen Williams interview using the direct link that is provided in this webpage but I'm not able to download any episode from iTunes.
