Nice interpretation! Another JW moment like this that comes to mind is from Last Crusade after Donovan drinks from the wrong cup. That chord from 01:01 to 01:10 is like that nerve-jangly feeling of an adrenaline rush in the aftermath of a nasty fright. Listening to Philosopher's Stone with new ears, it struck me just how varied the many performances of Hedwig's Theme are throughout the film. There are very few, if any, statements that sound identical, the arrangements do something new with the theme each time. The same goes for the rest of the thematic material, to

I really hope the film doesn't end with yet another Force Theme quote. By far one of my biggest disappointments with TLJ. -
It's the name of the renaissance-era wind instrument that plays the cue. Edit: Beaten to it!

Oh, interesting! I've only seen the film once so I couldn't remember what exactly was on screen at that point. I'll have to look out for that next time! -

It may not be as tight as Raiders, or as fun as Temple, or as emotionally satisfying as Crusade, but I get such a kick out of individual parts of Crystal Skull. The appearance of the flying saucer in The Departure is probably one of my favourite Williams moments. Those bells! But more on topic: can't remember if this has been pointed out yet, but is that a little snippet of 'Luke & Leia' in between the two phrases of the Force theme in Peace and Purpose? -

If anyone's interested, I edited the Japanese album cover so it fit better into a square. I love this version of the poster with Rey front and centre. -
I was thinking about the famous "I'm flying" scene from Titanic and, in particular, the precise moment where the music reaches its emotional climax. On paper, you might expect the score to swell at the moment Jack and Rose kiss, but it actually reaches its emotional peak a few seconds later when Rose reaches up her hand to hold Jack's head closer. The moment becomes a lot more sensual and somehow more romantic as a result. I realise this is just intelligent, intuitive film scoring, but the timing of these things always fascinates me. (2:09) Another example off

Which are your Top 10 John Williams chase music?
DolceMecha replied to Josh500's topic in JOHN WILLIAMS
No love for Visitor In San Diego? Those final two minutes are incredible. -
Haha thank you! I hope so too.

Hello everyone, nice to meet you all! I've followed this site and forum for a while now, so signing up here has been a long time coming. This place has been a great resource for keeping up to date with all things Williams and film music, so I thought it was about time I contributed in whatever small way I can. Plus, what better time to join in the pre-TLJ and Post anticipation? I've been an admirer of film music from an early age and that pretty much started with John Williams. In that respect, you could say The Phantom Menace was my Star Wars I find a particular kind of comfort a
