It was blue until relatively late in post production (even in the trailers I think) and I heard somewhere the change to green was made so it would show up better against the sky in the Sarlacc fight scene. TPM and AotC price also fell on Amazon UK. By the time they come out, they'll all be 4 Pounds!3 points

Films you wish were scored by Williams

It’s all well and good discussing the library of movies John Williams has scored over the years - but what about the films he hasn’t? Which films do you think would have been improved if JW had scored them? My opinion on this matter is that the rest of the “Potter” films would’ve been much improved with a score by Williams. what do you guys think?2 points -

It just feels generic to me, Trajan at least has some character. A single LP from 1983 with much information crammed onto it is different from a special remastered CD rerelease. Thank Eru for Amazon preorder keeping the lowest price then!2 points -

Photoshop Which font do you think would work better? i'll try it out. Yes, Darth Vader was spoiling the aesthetic, he's a big feature on 3, 4 and 5, I didn't think anyone would miss him. Return of the Jedi was the most difficult to adapt due to the posters available.2 points

My vote is Ready Player One. I really wish JW could have done it. I saw the film twice and both times tried to get into AS’s score, but it wasn’t happening.1 point

Donner's Ladyhawke is absolutely crying out in every scene for Williams, or maybe Horner and Goldsmith. I think it is a movie that was good enough to become iconic if it had an iconic score.1 point

You forgot roasted Porg. My understanding is that Ewoks like to eat roasted human as well. What a sight that would have been. Anyway, I'm not interested in being fair to Denny's, or Warner/New Line's, crasser forms of marketing for The Hobbit. I understand product tie-ins are just a reality for big tentpole pics like this, but you can do a lot of marketing around these films without being completely tasteless (pun intended). I actually think the Tolkien estate sued New Line for some of their more obnoxious forms of marketing, because they hurt the Tolkien brand in general. On whether the Green Dragon or Prancing Pony served "Gandalf's Gobble Melt" one can only speculate. I actually mind the Han Solo menu less than The Hobbit one. Star Wars went down this road from almost day one, there's no dignity there left to protect.1 point

Wondering what the chances are of seeing A Quiet Place with an audience who actually get that BEING quiet is necessary to appreciate it properly, as opposed to 'One ticket for A Quiet Place and the largest-sized bucket/tray/bag of popcorn/nachos/individually-wrapped sweets that you've got, thanks'.1 point -

Women have a right to equal opportunities, not to equal outcomes. Equalization of the cast (or equalization anywhere) is not, nor has it ever been, an ideal in the western world. That’s the point. It makes sense that an action film would, usually, have a predominantly male cast. It’s a masculine genre with characters that are usually required to be very masculine themselves.1 point -

Nice. But the more I listen to it, the more I think that the Kempe/Vienna Philharmonic version (which I've posted before) has to be among the best performances (of anything) I've heard: Love that hectic string sound that's always there but never distracts from the brass melody.1 point -

What’s so mysogynistic here, I have no idea. It always helps when you, the individual watching the film, can relate to the characters further through something you share: whether it means having characters of different age groups so you can find the one that you share your age with; different genders and yes, different ethnicities. Female characters can also help men watching the film, certainly. It gives the film a sense of variety. Since it is a feminine trait by nature, women in films tend to serve as the emotional core and/or the conscious of the film. That’s not sexist on the part of the filmmakers. But, if you were to point out in the current social climate that women in film also serve as eye-candy for men (which they absolutely are), that too would be hastly classified as misogynistic and sexist, so....1 point -

Berserk over gender roles? You mean tolerating all people? If a writer is interested in making a protagonist gay, why does that bother you? Why does there need to be an explicit reason for that decision? We don’t demand that being straight requires a narrative explanation? Honestly, the sooner viewpoints like yours die the better this world will be.1 point -

What film score theme/melody is going through your head right now?
Cerebral Cortex reacted to Kasey Kockroach for a topic
One of the downsides of being into film music is that you get a LOT of tunes and melodies lodged into your head and find yourself whistling said tune involuntarily. The situation worsens when doing such in public, and an unfortunate pedestrian curiously questions what you're whistling, and you're forced to come out with the devastating truth that, in fact, you're whistling Sid the sloth's theme from John Powell's Ice Age.1 point -

Marian Schedenig reacted to KK for a topic
That certain films have a tendency to overplay the diversity card is one thing. But I can't see what warrants this impassioned, and quite frankly, misguided tirade on gender characterizations and generalizations. No one is arguing that the male and female sex are biologically different. But I would love to read the paper that shows a qualitative biological measure of "assertiveness" (whatever that means...) between both sexes. Or more importantly, what that has to do with film at all, let alone this thread. Do you have specific examples of movies that do this supposedly great disservice to the accurate portrayal of females and their "assertiveness"? - KK, who's just a little confused at where this thread ended up1 point -
