John Williams returns to Berlin for three shows in June 2025
eitam replied to Jay's topic in JOHN WILLIAMS
That's great ! I'll absolutely try to get tickets. It's really perplexing that there is still no news of a concert in London and/or with the LSO. Maybe John Williams is superstitious and doesn't want to try again after the 2018 miss -
Sadly I'm not yet at the point where I can just laugh about this.

Great news ! Given what he had said, I didn't dare hope he would return so fast.

I love his work too, thank you @Thorfor the tip about his new album ! To the ones you've already mentionned, I'll add Silence Night and Dream, and 10 Pieces for orchestra (both non film).

20 years ago: remembering the best scores from 2004
eitam replied to Edmilson's topic in General Discussion
There was also Steamboy (my favourite Jablonsky, and a great movie too), Howl's Moving Castle (Miyazaki + Hisaishi, what more need be said), and the first season of Battlestar Galactica which put Bear McCreary on the map. -
The "t" is silent but not the "s". Desspla. Here he pronounces his own name (thanks Wikipedia) :

It's not too late for Williams to write a theme for Rey. Remember, he had to wait till Attack of the Clones before he could write the series' first love theme.

Hayao Miyazaki Retires From Feature Directing

To be fair, reading the first posts of the thread (minus all the blank posts), people weren't fooled by the anouncement. -
The official "I just saw an awesome concert" thread.

Danny Elfman's music for Tim Burton's movies, yesterday evening at the Royal Albert Hall. Overall I liked it, I was glad to hear for the first time live some great music from Beetlejuice, Batman & Batman Returns, Edward Scissorhands, Sleepy Hollow, Corpse Bride. But the main attraction was hearing the man himself (looking weird and fit at 70) perform songs from the Nightmare before Christmas. Main gripe was the bad electronic amplification. The music was loud most of the time, even in what should be quiet moments, and in the most orchestrally dense moments it was sometimes illegible. It also drowned out Danny Elfman's voice at several points, which, come on, I'm no expert but can't they do better than this? -
I'm not as familiar as you with the Vienna subway, but I understood it as Benji taking a voluntarily circuitous path to make sure he had no tail, as instructed by Ethan.

Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny (Cannes Score reactions)
eitam replied to Jay's topic in JOHN WILLIAMS
It's that time again, maybe for the last time, when only a select few people have seen JW's latest movie and can offer frustratingly vague and arbitrary comments on the score. It's part of the process of jwfan. -

Weird, but rather this than a straight lift from Adventures of Mutt... YES ! -
What are the best, most elegant and listenable horror scores?
eitam replied to GerateWohl's topic in General Discussion
I'm very partial to Brian Tyler's The Killing Room (maybe not exactly horror ? I've never seen the movie), and Howard Shore's The Cell. -
https://www.cinemablend.com/interviews/indiana-jones-and-the-dial-of-destinys-director-explains-the-complex-process-of-getting-john-williams-to-score-the-film So I'm confused, I thought Williams had been confirmed way before the movie shooting was completed ? EDIT sorry, didn't see it's already being discussed in General Discussion

OK that was subtle, i didn't realize I was off topic Return to Marlinspike Hall & Finale, followed by The Adventure Continues. The last minute of the Finale always gets my blood pumping in anticipation of the sequel... and then I remember.
