Not Mr. Big

LOLOL!  @Cerebral Cortex wins the day!
 

Seriously, Will? I can't tell if you're messing with me or not. You don't remember Williams being forced to do that promotional BFG tie-in ad for Subway last year? 

Lucas is not a pedestrian screen writer he's a flaming, horrendous car wreck of a screenwriter.

'Stay' from Interstellar, based on a recommendation from my friend Stefancos. Utterly, utterly stunning really. Quintessential Zimmer in ever sense. This is going to sound slightly over the top, but after playing it quite loud just now over my sound system, it was almost transcendental. Wow!

I'm blindly allowing myself to hope it's because they're getting rid of Koepp and starting over on the script.  Make my fantasy reality, Steven.

Hans Zimmer would be perfect for the Avatar sequels.  I can see it appealing to both his modern experimental side and a throwback to his more orchestral 90's style (The Lion King, The Prince of Egypt, Cool Runnings).  
There was a bit of Zimmer in Horner's Avatar to begin with so the change in style wouldn't be too drastic.  

Johnny's made it. He's really made it 

Listening to Interstellar. Hans Zimmer should score the Avatar sequels! His style feels just right for Cameron. And he would challenge Hans, who has become a bit lazy!
 
TGP! You agree?

So I've been listening to this a lot.  It truly is a wonderfully constructed piece of music that accomplishes quite a bit in roughly 3.5 minutes, complete with tailor-made built-in countdown to a Williams climax.  To Kobe's credit, he seems to have inspired some nice artistry with his collaborators.
 
Really hoping this gets a release because it contains that Williams magic.

A.I. is fascinating to me mostly as a Spielberg-as-auteur obsessive.  I would never in a million years call it the best film of the century so far.

I have a feeling that Williams' Indy V will be an improvement over the last, a major improvement even (especially if this is the sentimental send-off that I'm expecting/hoping for).

I do think that some people (mostly the reddit type) tend to overestimate the benefits of grouping two well-established composers.  For example, in no world would a John Williams/Hans Zimmer penned score work, nor would a Howard Shore/Michael Giacchino Star Wars score (an actual suggestion somebody made).  

It has its perks, but you're leaving yourself open to STDs.

- outdated CGI for almost everything they replaced
- unnecessarily added scenes that are redundant and interfere with pacing
- Vader's "NOOOOO!"
- scenes everywhere slightly reframed or cropped, not to mention Lucas' annoying habit of that slow zoom in
- dialogue changes here and there
- Emperor replaced in ESB. Before it was creepy, now it's cheesy
- new Ewok eyes are garish
- Jedi Rocks (are they actually singing about Jedi?)
- Victory Celebration sucks and the whole scene was re-edited for some reason - yuck!
- etc.
 
Why does everything else get an "archival" release that's accurate to the original theatrical exhibition but SW is taboo?

This is why the CinemaSins approach is useless and a waste of time.  You can pick apart any story ever told in this way.

These demands by the usual offenders for the immediate release of this score are typical detached from reality JWFan entitlement. I hope it never gets released, just to punish these people. 

Indiana Jones is one of those franchises where, good or bad, I'll take as much as I can get as long as Ford, Spielberg, and Williams are collectively behind the wheel.

Spielberg seems aware of how the audience generally felt about KOTCS and has been humbled a bit with recent films like The BFG. For the first time in a long time, Spielberg has something to prove, and that alone is reason for some excitement. 

God save us from Trevorrow.

RIP

I think it's hilarious.
