Massive spoiler right there, if you're the type of person who works things out from the vaguest nuggets of information. Thanks

A'ha! Thanks, I've never noticed that

Is this the first and only example of Lucas' meddling actually being a good thing? Oh and I've been here for a while now, but I still don't know how to save a thread to my forum favourites. Is it even possible around here? I'm sick of forgetting where I've posted

The City of Prague Philarmonic at their best.

I've just done a quick edit of the main theme, merging in the brassy love theme with the rest. Its quite interesting (and reasonably seamless) but the love theme is in a slightly different key :? The tempo seems sound enough. I need to work on the sound level of the love theme tho Still, I think I could get used to it. I'm gonna take my time on it later. PM me if you would like to inspect it. Perhaps someone else can perfect it.

Never really listened to it tbh. I've heard its a very good score, but the main theme never really did it for me. Having said that, it suited the movie perfectly, which is what matters most.

I like the original LSO version most, but when the love theme kicks in I much prefer the superbly brassier rendition as heard on the credits of one of the dvd docs. TGE - Who's thinking of editing it in later tonight. Anyone tried this themselves?

...as being the greatest working composer alive today? And where does Williams figure? I know there can be a certain snobbery towards him, but surely even amongst the elitists there must be at least some appreciation for his orchestral composition skills?

I wish Alan Menkin would would score more movies, especially live action ones. He has a real gift for catchy melodys and his orchestration is always interesting.

You don't remember the Indian chief Lois interviews? Neil I've had to search the depths of my Superman memories for that one. Yeah, I remember it. Did it have deeper significance or something?

You know, people might whistle a tune of Williams, or perhaps they might mention how they liked the music of a particular film. I've had instances like these many times and I nearly always try to carefully educate them as to just who is responsible for writing all the film music they don't realise they actually know. Its normally met with a sentence that basically means 'Meh'. But sometimes, just sometimes, a person will question it, show signs of understanding, even appreciation (usually after I've given them the popular score roll out). My closest friends and family ALL know the name John Williams, purely because I've persistently drilled it into their heads. But the thing is, nearly all of my friends are now avid fans of the man, once realising the effect he had on their individual love of film and even musical tastes.

Damn right

The Indians. Yes... I remember them Dances With Williams?

For the money men, hype cannot come soon enough.

I like these big daft summer movies. Take'em for what they are intend to be - popcorn rollercoaster rides, nothing more. I'll go see this.

Really, I must say I'm suprised by this. Are you talking annual gross or up front fee?

Surely he must be. I'm talking flat fee here. Royalties are a mere sweet bonus.

To the City of Prague Philarmonic. So at last they will have a reason to play things are they were meant to be. Hmm, I wonder what Williams could do with that orchestra. Could he bring them into line, or are they beyond repair? We've all heard about how scary he is when he doesn't like the performance. Methinks Johnny should get over there and release any pent up anger he may have. But then again, whats he got to be angry about - he's the greatest, most successful film composer in the world. Therefore the Prague orchestra will always be shite.

Oh yes

Nothing in a Batman or Spiderman movie will ever be as effective as that.

To the City of Prague Philarmonic. What are you wearing babe?

Its on UK telly tonight btw. Channel 5. Oh and I have no idea what you guys are talking about.

What I want to know is why are all female Japanese musicians always so fit? Not at all like some of the grocks I had in my music classes.

Damn, I thought I was gonna hear a wrong answer Family Fortunes wav. What a let down.
