Ricard 2,380 Posted January 10, 2012 Posted January 10, 2012 "John is the most important collaborator I've ever had in my career. He makes me look good, he makes my films look better. I get a lot of credit that should be going to John. But I've kept the people who have been in my career who I feel are my family."Full article and video at Digital Spy
Quintus 5,751 Posted January 10, 2012 Posted January 10, 2012 Spielberg has always sort of said this, but never as bluntly.I'm loving his perpetual truth and honesty lately as I am loving my rekindled appreciation of his movies and loyalty to the man in general. Spielberg's a stand up guy, no doubt in my mind of that.

#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 11,050 Posted January 10, 2012 Posted January 10, 2012 He unleashed Megan Fox upon the world!
Quintus 5,751 Posted January 10, 2012 Posted January 10, 2012 Twenty Megan Fox's lined up naked in my bed wouldn't undo the situation that we have with Indy IV.Actually that's a complete load of bollocks.
indy4 159 Posted January 12, 2012 Posted January 12, 2012 Nice find, Ricard. While I appreciate Spielberg's intentions, I think his statement could use some clarifying. Williams' scores contain both intellectual (/subliminal) and emotional techniques at the same time. The thematic connections and developments are done in a way that casual listeners won't recognize, at least not consciously. At the same time, Williams' style also has a lot for those that are just looking for an emotional ride.
KK 3,310 Posted January 12, 2012 Posted January 12, 2012 I noticed that that too. When he said "his music skips the brain and goes straight to heart", I was wondering what exactly he meant by that. Yes Williams' music is emotional, but obviously he's composed very intellectual scores too. He's done combinations of both in various scores, like Tintin
