  1. why can't I listen to it ? I can see, but there is no audio!
  2. Hi there, everyone! God, has been a long time since I last started a new topic. Well, what I want from you people is to know what are the most beautiful themes from the movies (and when I say beautiful I mean a theme that would melt you down in tears if you were that sensible). Now, please keep in mind that I do not want this to become a discussion of "facts". I just want to know your opinion and what are the most moving themes for YOU. Thank you, everyone. See you around.
  3. Thank you Maraquesh, whoever you are, I needed that.
  4. #4 Miguel - It has been a long, long time
  5. Why can't I listen to it ? I downloaded the player but when I click to play nothing hapens! :cry: Someone help me?
  6. Ocelot is a homo KM is kinda afraid of homo's Ocelot has a photo of his boyfriend as his avatar. KM does not like to browse through the MB when he has visitors cause he is afraid Ocelot's avatar might geive them the wrong idea about KM. Ocelot gets laid several times a week. KM lives with his cat. I'm sure everything is clear now. Stefancos- wondering is Weal is the husband or wife.... LOL LOL I must print this one...
  7. I'm sorry to hear this, I really respect him and his work. May he rest in peace.
  8. Congratulations! I just can't stop hearing it! It reminds me of "The Mummy Returns", don't know why... I guess it has the same feeling to me.
  9. Well, in my point of you, Spielberg's main concern was/is prevent that the world forgets what Jews suffered in those years of horror and prevent that it happens again. The movie SL just gave an hint of all the atrocities that took place in the WWII and SPR is just a minor reproduction (the best one though, IMO) of what war was/is like . Millions of people were murdered, that shouldn't be forgotten.
  10. I must say that I mostly agree with the topic title (ok, savior is a bit strong ). Of course Steven Spielberg is one of the greatest directors alive... he is certainly the most popular one. But just think about this: His first blockbuster was Jaws. THAT movie was the first turn point in his career. Now, imagine the film without the music and, especially, without the shark motif. Would it be as efective and successful? I don't think so, it would have to be, at least, edited differently, it would be a different movie. Could any other composer write such a threatning theme? I guess so, but it wouldn't be the same. I think Jaws it's one of those rare examples where music and picture combine perfectly. Without Williams music, Steven's career wouldn't have had that ignition. But, let's admit that his career would progress the same way as it did after Jaws. His next project was Close Encounters of the Third Kind and we all know that Williams got involved with it since it's earlier stages. So, Williams music was one of Spielberg's sources of inspiration for the film, playing, as we all know, a vital part in it. It's not illogical to admit that, without that particular music, Close Encounters would be slightly (to say the least) different. Would it be such an incredible movie? Probably not. The next Spielberg's blockbuster was Indiana Jones and The Raiders Of The Lost Ark ( ), making him even more successful. Williams music for that film has, probably, the most well known movie theme ever (well, at least that is my perception in my country). It's a wounderfull, billiantly directed movie, but would it be as engaging and heroic if it weren't for Williams music? Probably not. Then came E.T., and what can I say that hasn't been said? Only that I completely agree with Chris. E.T wouldn't work for me without the music, especially without Williams greatly inspired themes. And this was THE movie that made Spielberg a world wide phenomenon. Joe said "E.T. is greater than the sum of all its parts" and that's true, but isn't it true that if you subtract one of the parts it will afect the sum? After E.T., Spielberg has proven, time and time again, what a brilliant director he is, but I believe that every person's history his made of evolution and not of single moments. Having said that, Williams made a major difference in Steven's earlier point of his career, without whom he wouldn't be where he is today (this works the other way around too). Remember that Spielberg once said that "John has never failed to suprise me, uplift me or make me look good " and I think he really meant it. Mind you that this is just my opinion, no one has to be offended by it. Ah, and please avoid the "sh*t" thing... Miguel
  11. Yes, you're right. I completely forgot about that. So, could we see the complete list, Joe ? Miguel - Eagerly waiting for that list.
  12. Could we see the complete list, Ricard ? It must be very interesting.
  13. Those are excelent news! Will we really be able to listen to all those themes in the piano, played by John Williams?! Miguel -
  14. I'm sorry Ocelot, I have no knowledge of those awards. Could you post a link to their site?
