  1. Hey I had a question. I have seen the movie "The Mission" many times and now it is coming out on Blu-Ray Oct. 15, 2010, but before I buy it on Blu-Ray I thought to myself is this movie based on a true story or fiction? Anybody who has seen the movie please respond. Thanks

  2. I don't see JW scoring Harry Potter againt. I'd say if the choice was him scoring this or doing nothing, I'd want him to score it. If its something completely new or Deathly Hollows, I'd want him to score something new.

    Your right. Part I: Alexandre Desplat will be scoring Part I of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hollow's

  3. I was under the impression that Williams would not do another Harry Potter because Miguel Andreas told me that he was unlikely to do another Harry Potter film, but I was pretty sure he would come back. That is why I had the poll and now it is locked. Miguel seems to know a whole lot more about John Williams than me, but I thought he would do another Harry Potter film. So he is doing Part 1 & 2 of the film? Sorry that I dont post a lot, but very busy.

  4. Havent seen the film yet, but they made this movie b/c the cartoon TV show The Clone Wars not sure what network it is on, but the movie is suppose to take place between Star Wars Episode II and III. The person who did the music for the movie I never heard of and rate the soundtrack a D-. What do you members rate the soundtrack? from A+ to F.

  5. Did we not mention this a couple months ago like in April or May of this year or couple years back? I cant remember and I thought I was the one who came up with the idea that they would come out with an extended edition of Raiders, Temple and Crusade. Nobody believes me. If there is money to be made they will make the money somehow. It seems like we talk about wanting an extended version of some type of movie doing petitions and stuff, but I am only giving my opinion. Its great that Raiders extended is coming out and maybe if the sales do well they will think about releasing Temple and Crusade extended, but if the sales dont do well then I guess we can kiss the extended editions goodbye, but probably not really they can do what ever they want. I really would like to see Star Wars Episode I-III be extended, all the Harry Potter films be extended and all Indiana Jones films be extended(including Crystal Skull). We all ready have an extended edition of Star Wars Episode IV-VI(Not sure if there are any other tracks to add to these films).

  6. I am a JW Fan 1st and film enthusiast 2nd. I like other film composers such as: Goldsmith, Eidelman, Horner, Elfman, Morricone, and others, but my all time favorite composer is John Williams. Is Williams still planing to do the film Lincoln in 2009? What other projects does he have for 2009? I cant wait to see Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince in theaters.

  7. I use audacity a lot. Raiders March I have done. Ive also done, Main Title- Star Wars(1977), The Imperial March, The Basket Game, Desert Chase and many others. audacity rocks. Ive recored soundtracks off of YouTube to audacity. Who else has done The Imperial March backwards? I suggest you do The Imperial March backwards if you havent.

  8. If they do an Indiana Jones V I think they should start right away, but I doubt they will go ahead with the idea. George Lucas did intend 5 movie adventures for Indiana Jones, but I am not sure if Harrison Ford is willing to do another Indiana Jones film. I know everybody has read the review of what George Lucas has said by now on the main page of the JWFan Network. It would be awesome, but hard to say right now. Yesterday on Youtube I saw that they had the soundtrack to Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull Soundtrack, but when I click on it. It said "This was pulled for copyright reason by George Lucas people." Why havent they pulled Raiders of the Lost Ark Soundtrack or Temple of Doom Soundtrack. Why havent they pulled these for copyright reasons. Why is it illegal for KOTCS, but legal for ROTLA and TOD? Please explain. Thanks. John Williams next score is Lincoln right? This releases in 2009, so are we going to start a board on Lincoln next since Indiana Jones is about to be out. I hope I like what I hear from John Williams soundtrack. Its done by the Hollywood Studio Orchestra right or is it Done by LSO? Its under a different label too. Concord is the Label name. I hope the movie is good too. I plan to see it next week. Then we will probably have polls rating the score and movie after that. More polls to vote in ha ha. Some polls are good though.

  9. How about The Basket Game from Raiders of the Lost Ark. I think there is a tambourine part in there somewhere if I remember correctly. This is the only one I can think of off the top of my head without listening to any of John Williams soundtracks. Wonder if he uses the tambourine in KOCS? We just have to wait till the soundtrack comes out. Why is the tambourine used in musical compositions? I use to be a music major, but changed my degree b/c Music Theory I was too tough and the teacher told me that I would have been better prepared for the class if I had some real music theory in high school.

  10. If he pulls an Azkaban...yes....

    If he pulls a RotS....no.

    Agreed, but I do not think Williams has lost his touch. Even though I like RotS. Azkaban is better. So is Schindler's List and many others as well. How about Saving Private Ryan? Does anybody think it was a good soundtrack? I only heard one of the tracks b/c of "John Williams Greatest Hits 1969-1999." "Hymn To The Fallen" is the name of the track.

  11. I dont own the soundtrack, but would like to say which people already know probably that the soundtrack no longer exist and It is available through e-Bay and Amazon.com dealers. This probably another soundtrack that needs to be rereleased, but will never will be rereleased. Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom is another soundtrack that needs to be rereleased. What is Mr. Breathmask's opinion as well as an other members opinion. Is there a way I can listen to the soundtrack online somehow? Thanks.

  12. At the risk of sounding like those people who say "evolution is impossible because someone found human footprints next to dinosaur fossils," I will point out that Stravinsky's Rite of Spring was booed during it's premier.

    George Lucas is one of the premier artists of our time, and I'd agree that Spielberg is one of the top guys there, too. I am confident that Lucas will be remembered fondly in history books two hundred years from now. Nothing in the past 50 years can touch Star Wars in scope and depth, nothing.

    Don't argue, I'm always right. :lol:

    Yes, I admire George Lucas and the Rite of Spring thing is true learned that in my Humanities class in college. It was interesting to hear something that is considered great now was booed back then. George Lucas was probably booed many times. I bet he's use to it by now. I cant wait to see Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull. I cant wait to hear the soundtrack either. Does anybody know Lucas next project?

    Indiana Jones Trilogy- CD Universe

    I also hope that they will make it a two or three disc set to do it justice. Any comments reply.

  14. Has anybody read the book.

    Yes.

    Where do you think a good place would be to make the split for the movie would be

    Well, Mugglenet has a poll up with the following options:

    Ron's Return/The Silver Doe

    Xenophilius Lovegood ("Are you referring to the sign of the Deathly Hallows?")

    Malfoy Manor

    Shell Cottage (Dobby's Death)

    Gringotts

    I like the second, fourth, and fifth options.

    Has any other book been split into two movies.

    None of the Potter books has.

    Im talking about other movies. NOT particularly Harry Potter. I know the other Harry Potter movies were not split in two. They were just cut down and selected what they considered what was important to the story, so people can get a general idea about Harry Potter books if they have never read them. I did not start reading the Harry Potter books until I started watching the movies. They cut a lot out of the stories. In order of what I have read of Harry Potter: The Sorcerer's Stone threw Goblet of Fire of best adaptation from book to film in my opinion is:

    1. Prisoner of Azkaban

    2. Goblet of Fire

    3. Sorcerer's Stone

    4. Chamber of Secrets

    I have not read Order of the Phoenix, but I have seen the film, so people who have read the book and seen the film do you think they did a good adaptation from book to film. You can even correct my list if you do not agree with me which most people on this board do not agree with my opinion. Mr. Breathmask I would like your opinion too. Thanks.
