Goldsmithfan 6 Posted December 17, 2010 Share Posted December 17, 2010 478. He was approached to score Ridley Scott's Alien.Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat? I don't remember having heard this. What would that be like? Probably as butchered in film as Goldsmith's. He probably would have written the entire thing for 16 tubas, a mini moog and two triangles. Damn. That would shake 'em up! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arpy 4,145 Posted September 9, 2014 Share Posted September 9, 2014 301. John Williams actually scored every single Potter film. No one has heard it and anyone who speaks of it is court marshaled along with every Captain of the U.S.S. Enterprise who violated direct orders and the ears of people who supposedly have heard it. 306. He wears his trademark turtleneck to bed. He even has a swimsuit turtleneck for special occasions.
