Quintus 5,399 Posted July 18, 2012 Share Posted July 18, 2012 I just can't get excited about this score when I'm absolutely expecting Nixon meets The Patriot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KK 3,307 Posted July 18, 2012 Share Posted July 18, 2012 I think its going to be in a rather different direction considering how Williams kept going on about how hymn-like its going to be. So I suppose we'll get more of his pastoral writing infused with his usual sense of Americana. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quintus 5,399 Posted July 18, 2012 Share Posted July 18, 2012 Maybe. That'd certainly be more appealing to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KK 3,307 Posted July 18, 2012 Share Posted July 18, 2012 I liked Nixon and The Patriot (although the latter was sort of Williams on auto-pilot). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
indy4 155 Posted July 18, 2012 Share Posted July 18, 2012 Wow I wasn't expecting it to be released so soon (I expected a December release)! It shouldn't be too long before we get a trailer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay 37,364 Posted July 18, 2012 Share Posted July 18, 2012 first the trailer, then the soundtrack samples, then the soundtrack, then the film.... it's all right around the corner now! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
indy4 155 Posted July 18, 2012 Share Posted July 18, 2012 It feels like we were just doing this for Tintin and War Horse...so this is what it's like to be a fan of JW when he's actively writing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eporetskymusic 0 Posted July 18, 2012 Share Posted July 18, 2012 Considering this film is based on Lincoln, I expect the score to be quite "American". I think we'll see a lot of strings and definitely hear similarities similiar to "Nixon", "JFK", "War Horse", "The Patriot", "Saving Private Ryan". I don't see the use of a chorus unless there is a lot of war scenes but I definitely expect nice brass, strings, possibly flutes as well. I'm super excited and can't wait!

Not Mr. Big 4,639 Posted July 18, 2012 Share Posted July 18, 2012 YES! I was afraid that this wasn't to be released until early 2013. Hopefully we'll get a trailer soon. I hope it contains music from the film like War Horse did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joni Wiljami 1,206 Posted July 18, 2012 Share Posted July 18, 2012 Finally same action.

Jilal 569 Posted July 18, 2012 Share Posted July 18, 2012 At least you didn't use DHL....Hopefully we'll get a trailer soon. I hope it contains music from the film like War Horse did.Indeed, i hope this trailer also uses the score... That would be great.I can't believe we were discussing War Horse a year ago.

Not Mr. Big 4,639 Posted July 18, 2012 Share Posted July 18, 2012 It's funny that Lincoln has it's release more than a month earlier than War Horse but there are still no trailers or even production stills out yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrbellamy 6,287 Posted July 18, 2012 Share Posted July 18, 2012 Now that we know it's definitely coming in November, I don't think a trailer would be more than a month away.

Incanus 5,715 Posted July 19, 2012 Share Posted July 19, 2012 Fantastic news! Another Williams score so soon. Didn't Williams say the score is guitar heavy?I think there was some fuss about IMDB listing George Doering as a guitarist for the score but I don't think there has been any report of the score being "guitar heavy". This is how internet rumors are fuelled. From a soloist to "guitar heavy". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
indy4 155 Posted July 19, 2012 Share Posted July 19, 2012 So you're telling me the entire score will be one long and unaccompanied guitar solo, and "Rounds" was our first sample? I'll go alert the press. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Incanus 5,715 Posted July 19, 2012 Share Posted July 19, 2012 I think it is fairly obvious that it will the guitarist John Williams who will be writing this score. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quintus 5,399 Posted July 19, 2012 Share Posted July 19, 2012 It's more obvious that by incorporating the guitar in this score our John Williams is attempting to completely eradicate the other John Williams from Google search results. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quintus 5,399 Posted July 19, 2012 Share Posted July 19, 2012 Actually, I think that might have the opposite effect.Do we know if it is an acoustic guitar or an electric guitar?Don't worry - Googles algorithms work in our John's favour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quintus 5,399 Posted July 19, 2012 Share Posted July 19, 2012 It's funny how owning a tablet has made me regress and streamline my computing/online habits. I too used to enjoy mucking about with Photoshop, making animated gifs, banners and stuff; using music editing software, mixing music together, putting it over video; spending time here typing up big essay posts, arguing endlessly with Alexcremers with comprehensive quotations and amusing back-and-forth. But now? Now I don't even use two hands to type. I've never been so rapidly efficient with my index finger. When typing, ahem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
