Trailer Music! I hate these guys.

Lol, I got downvoted to oblivion on reddit a couple months ago for daring to assume that the trailer music in the leaked trailer was still going to be used in the final public version. ...Annnd here we are. Absolute garbage, and it sounds even worse in good quality. The horn samples towards the end sound unbelievably fake. Would it really have killed them to just use some of the classic Indy music from the previous films???

The first comment on the trailer is someone saying JW music in the trailer is great. I'm dying.

Anyone else thinks the movie looks a bit too Marvel-ish? "Indiana Jones and the Search for the Infinity Gauntlet"

Spielberg has had a not great track record with casting young men over the last 20 years. They've mostly ranged from bad (Justin Chatwin in WOTW) to the just ok, not actively hurting the movie but not good either (Jeremy Irvine in War Horse, Tye Sheridan in RP1). Well, he finally struck gold with The Fabelmans. I was so impressed with Gabriel LaBelle in this movie, he really knocked it out of the park in every way. That scene with the jock bully in the hallway after showing the beach movie.... wow, the absolute highlight of the movie for me and LaBelle was truly great in it.

I love Bax. "Tintagel" is fantastic.

We're greatly enjoying our time in Florence so far @TownerFan, any meet up ideas for Milan?

It's like Best Buy except they primarily stock Bear McCreary scores.

Sticking with my rule of not watching trailers for big tentpoles I know I'm going to see.

I hate how they always start the trailers with the same type of music.

Does this mean that after 13 long years this thread title will be renamed??

IJ and Mutt’s Noble End. JW approved.

BTW my title prediction: Indiana Jones and the Immolation of Mutt

Definitely one of the most fun JW cues to play 😃

I noticed that you have posted four times, once for each of the major John Williams concerts and each time about two tickets available for which you couldn't attend. Is there a reason you couldn't make it to each of these concerts? Just to check you're not attempting to scam any fans...

The story was her realizing it. I can see people not liking the pacing, or the lack of humor, or maybe even missing a sense of adventure. Those are arguably the biggest departures from past Star Wars. But the two things in this show that are absolutely perfect are the prison arc and everything with Mon Mothma. To me one of the greatest moments of the entire series was when MM meets with the scummy banker and he says "I don't want money, I want your child" and you see her realize that she had no idea the game that she was playing, what would be asked of her, and what she would be willing to do. It was overshadowed by some pretty amazing events in the rest of the episode. (I mean, it had Andy Serkis being astonishing AND Luthen's speech.)

I don't know if anyone really cares, but I did a comparison of these 4 tracks, and it turns out that Track 5 "I’m With You (You Seem Nice)" on the FYC is identical to the OST version. Like, it sounds 100% identical. On the other tracks, even on matching segments, you can hear differences in the mastering.

There is absolutely no point. Apparently it was the composer's choice but I am sure that almost everyone who is buying this expanded, already owns the regular release. It gets more redundant, more expensive as a product and more shipping costs for people overseas.

Nice! Exactly the same for me with Home Alone 2. I bought it ready for 1 Dec, today!

I've had this CD sitting in shrink-wrap on my shelf for 9 months, waiting until December to listen to it. I just completed my first listen through of CD 1 today, and picked up on this straight away (I was listening on good headphones). It was the only noticeable audio blip on the whole first CD, particularly since the score sounds so much cleaner than the regular OST which I am used to listening to. BTW I checked CD2 and "Follow That Kid!" has the exact same scratching noise at 1:53. I compared it with the OST on Spotify, and right where the noise is on the LLL set, the OST instead has some kind of high frequency drop-out (perhaps to mask it?). Most intriguing... Regardless, I'm keen to listen to the score again, as it was a fun time (and very cartoony-feeling, with all the extra Wet Bandit musical material included on the LLL set).

You know.. if anyone here would like, I can just post the full list of slates from the sessions. I am uncertain if any of the [cue] names were changed though. Just let me know if you would like this...

Looks fun! Dial of Destiny is what I call my thermostat!

Yea, as cringe as that was, im just be happy they still gave him a nod.

The Mandalorian S3 will start on March 1st

I'm just excited to get a new JWFan acronym. Gonna be seeing a lot of DOD around here from now on.

*sigh of relief* Finally. 😊

Don't we have enough of those already?

Khan is available! https://omnimusicpublishing.com/product/horners-star-trek-ii-full-orchestral-score/ Not on front page, but is on Shop page. I've ordered mine.

Pre-covid? That's insane! I wonder if Jay would tell us how long he's had this. I hope this means MM has tackled dozens of stuff that will still take years to be approved.

Do you just have no idea what kind of show this is? It’s an ensemble show, it’s important to regularly check in to see what each of our main players is up to and progress the plot at the same time. You can’t do that if you dedicate entire episodes to one character’s perspective, that’s not the point of the show. I seriously doubt your ability to judge someone a good or bad editor if you’ve somehow missed how deliberately juxtaposed a lot of those scenes are and how much meaning you would miss without the intercutting.

Crap, if I'd known that when I bought four of their five new releases, I'd have added one of those into the cart.

Update: The Metallica cover is pre-existing music. Not made for the show. It was done by a Finnish band!

“Long Road to Justice” stands toe to toe with “With Malice Toward None.” The Adams material is absolutely gorgeous and brilliant and not generic in any way.

More region A imports:

But it's also been 20 years since anybody or anything has gotten it. Carver Gets It Tanker Gets It The Boat Gets It The Garden Gets It Sub Gets It Peoples Gets It Walter Gets It Antonov Gets It Moneypenny Gets It

I’m such an enigma I should have a John Barry score.

I agree, I find the Americana very generic (it's Lincoln that convinced me that it can be enjoyable at all) and I'm not even that fond of the Dry Your Tears theme. Cinqué's Theme, however, I love every rendition and variation of it. It may be one of my five favourite themes by Williams and since it's carrying large parts of the score, that score is one of my favourite scores by Williams.

No time for summations yet. Too much work left. Besides, streaming wouldn't provide many answers; I mostly listen to files on my computer.

I'm way behind my score purchases from all 3 companies, but here's what Chris Siddall posted on facebook!!!

INDIANA JEUNES ET LE DEEL UUV DEES-TINY.

I had a blast with KOTCS in the theater back in 2008 so I'm probably not the best judge but... Looks like a lot of fun!

Ruined it!

Rings of Power done gone and recast their best original character and best casting coup... This is going nowhere good...

Instead of this, I ordered Superman IV Quest For Peace. Seemed more value.

I agree that her subplots really didn't cover that much ground over the course of the season … but I also found them really compelling to watch. Genevieve O'Reilly has truly hit her stride with this character. In ROTS's deleted scenes, she struck me as a rather stilted lookalike. In R1, she got to give a more mature and nuanced performance. Now, in Andor, she totally steals the show with everything she says—and everything she doesn't.
