It's not as if he writes his own material (with a couple of exceptions). He just looks for good material to make a movie out of is all.

I don't even know what his last original movie was. The Terminal? A.I.? His last original movie was Kingdom of the Crystal Skull, written by David Koepp! Ah, now we know why!

Jurassic Shark 12,076 Posted July 29, 2018 Share Posted July 29, 2018 From Wikipedia, which we know is always right: Quote Though Spielberg received sole credit for the script, he was assisted by Paul Schrader, John Hill, David Giler, Hal Barwood, Matthew Robbins, and Jerry Belson, all of whom contributed to the screenplay in varying degrees.

Yeah, many many people worked on it. Spielberg among others. But generally Spielberg "just" directs and produces his movies. He isn't involved in the writing process.

Chen G. 3,949 Posted July 29, 2018 Share Posted July 29, 2018 Of course, the drafts of the script evolve greatly from the interaction with the director and producer (and Spielberg tends to occupy both positions). And there are stuff that a director will add to the script and stuff that will be removed in the edit, etc... Jurassic Shark 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Josh500 1,615 Posted July 29, 2018 Share Posted July 29, 2018 What were we talking again? Oh yeah! When Worlds Collide. I sure hope that comes through, with another kickass sci-fi action score by John Williams! This one will also likely be reminiscent of the disaster movies JW used to do in the 70's! 😂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He'll probably start writing in December or January though. They're much further behind where TLJ was at the same proximity to release. Since Abrams is in charge now, my guess is Williams wont start writing until early spring and begin recording in the summer. Chen G. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Balahkay 627 Posted July 30, 2018 Share Posted July 30, 2018 It's nice to see a formal announcement of Williams involvement. I don't recall an announcement like this for TLJ. I believe the only confirmation we had at the time was from Williams himself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post crumbs 14,316 Posted July 30, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted July 30, 2018 Yeah there was no real announcement with TLJ... We just found out he was already recording the score before Christmas and that was that! In hindsight it's pretty clear he left open the possibility of TFA being his farewell to the series, and he wanted to wait & see before agreeing to continue, for health reasons or otherwise. I also get the impression his decision to return for TLJ essentially meant he was agreeing to finish the entire trilogy, so the IX announcement is much less surprising than TLJ's. It was either TFA only or he was seeing this bastard through right to the end! Chen G., Chewy, Will and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post crumbs 14,316 Posted July 31, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted July 31, 2018 He would write a sensational Jungle/Desert/Tank Chase type setpiece.

Chen G. 3,949 Posted July 31, 2018 Share Posted July 31, 2018 And could he also find a magical artifact in said temple which will allow him to go back in time, eliminate the plot of Indiana Jones 4 from continuity and so have the movie end with footage from the ending of The Last Crusade? If this happens it will instantly become my new most revered Indiana Jones film. Mattris 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pellaeon 593 Posted July 31, 2018 Share Posted July 31, 2018 Star Trek already did it. But. I honestly wouldn’t mind. They (Indiana Jones and his granddaughter, natch) end up transported back to the original (“Nazi”) series timeframe, have adventures, yadda yadda. Indiana Jones dies and passes the hat to Indiana Jane. Last scene recreates the riding-into-the-sunset from Last Crusade. And if they want to create more “sequels” about her, they’ll be set in the 30s where they belong, not in the 70s or 80s… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
