put the pipe down Tom, if the man goes begging, which he did, its a sign his clout is dimished.

15 years ago who'd beleive that Spielberg could not get 50 million dollars to make a movie.

Fifteen years ago we weren't entering a severe financial crisis.

Wasn't there a big recession in the early 1990's?

In Australia there was. It was the one we had to have otherwise we'd have become a banana republic.

More shrimp on the barby there!!!!

Nice to see not everyone on this board is a complete dumb f*cker.

[BurgaFlippinMan]

did you guys know that Spielberg's take from Universal Studios in Florida is upwards of 50 million dollars.

Why doesn't he finance it himself.

And use his own money? You have to be crazy or Mel Gibson to do that.

Yeah. We don't want Mr Spielberg going down the same road GL did by wasting good money on characters like Jar Jar Binks.

[Mr. Breathmask]

I'd call The Empire Strikes Back a worthwile investment though.

Maybe it's more the subject matter and not Spielberg's ability? Economy isn't in great shape, and as I said before, it's not a movie subject that magnetically draws people in. I can perfectly understand why this was turned down.

Really? On his knees?

Maybe Spielberg will direct and Williams will score this novel about Lincoln:

[Josh500]

Is Spielberg shooting it now? What's the latest on this project? It's rumored that he started shooting it in early 2009, for a release in November. Any truth to that?

[Luke Skywalker]

didnt you read that the project is on stand-by?

[Josh500]

Well, if anyone has new info on this, he could post it here.

I'm thinking Spielberg has gotta do SOMETHING this year and the next, besides TINTIN...

[king mark]

do you even read the MB?

[Nick Parker]

do you even read the MB?

Seriously!

Sorry, I admit I'm selective.

I just don't have the time to read everything that's being posted here...

[king mark]

yes,your too busy making polls

[Josh500]

yes,your too busy making polls

Yes, that's it exactly.

Next poll: Which do you like more? Star Wars or Star Trek?

[Koray Savas]

Spielberg still has his eye on Lincoln even though Robert Redford is soon to start filming his own film about Lincoln entitled The Conspirators.

Spielberg's Lincoln project has never been in any doubt as far as this observer was concerned. I remember finding this thread to be a tad over zealous when it appeared.

[Simon R.]

I am sure Spielberg could finance all of this by himself if it was so important to him...

But I can't say this project has excited me at all - neither for the film or the score - so fine with me.

Liam Neeson Quits Spielberg's Lincoln

Neeson says he's too old and that it's past his sell-by date.

[Joe Brausam]

I guess that's pretty much the nail in the coffin for this film. It's a shame, I was honestly looking forward to it.

[Krang]

Does this mean Williams will now have time to score Deathly Hallows Part 2?

[Chaac]

Does this mean Interstellar can get made after War Horse?

[Michael]

According to what I've read, Daniel Day-Lewis might end up replacing Neeson for the main role. Also, Spielberg recently said that he spend the last two years putting Dreamworks back on its feet, that's why there was a lack of films from him in that time. However, and if I'm not mistaken, the new deal with Disney says that Spielberg will direct six films in the next years, starting with War Horse. And the following is my own thinking, but if Spielberg is able to get his box-office mojo back, he will be able to direct anything he wants, possibly Lincoln and/or Interstellar. Also, I want him to do Pirate Latitudes. Imagine the score we could get with that one!

[JanBing]

Indy 5... c'mon, there's one last Indy flick in all of them to make up for Crystal Skull!

[E.T. & Elliott]

No more Indiana Jones. But I'll settle for 6 more JW scores. There's got to be something good to be had in there.

[Elmo Lewis]

Read and rejoice if you will:

[Quint]

Oh great, another epic, this time a biopic, for Day-Lewis to well and truly smite with his scene decimating ACTING.

[Michael]

I've heard of this before but.... IT'S GOING TO BE RELEASED FOR CHRIST SAKEEEEE!!!!!

Finally! So we're getting four new Williams scores so far! Rejoice!

[Red Rabbit]

That is awesome. DDL is hands-down one of the best actors, so him pairing with Spielberg is a real treat.

[Mark Olivarez]

I'll believe it when I have Williams' score in my hands.

"Lincoln", "War Horse", "Tin-Tin". I make that 3. Where's the 4th?

[Jason LeBlanc]

Robopacalypse

[Alexcremers]

Indy 5?


Hmm, I'm generally not too happy about big actors playing big historical figures. Anyway, we'll have to wait 2 years before we can hear the soundtrack. Will it be another noble Tim Morrison score?

[Richard]

Robopacalypse

Is this confirmed, Jason?

[John Crichton]

I'll believe it when I have Williams' score in my hands.

Time to whip out our fake tracklists again.

[Kendal_Ozzel]

Man, I hate that Neeson dropped out... but DDL will undoubtedly be fantastic. Bring it on!

Also, there's a link about Spielberg signing on for Robopocalypse in the Lincoln article.

[Romão]

It's great to see Spielberg pick up such interesting and different projects. All of the upcoming 4 projects are much more enticing for me regarding a future JW score than another Harry Potter score
