    A weak 5th Indiana Jones will probably be better than any other film score released this year

    Williams and Spielberg look like they're about to do a more casual version of the Spider-Man pointing meme.

    I tried, but he didn't listen to me!
     
    Speaking of, here's the promised view of where I was compared to Williams:

    You should have told him that it is rude to come to the concert hall sick--he should have stayed home.

    I only brought up the cold thing because I was sitting right above him during the show and he kept wiping his nose with a tissue and then looked more tired than usual conducting. It's not like I'm playing tabloid journalist.

    One of my favorite brief musical moments of the franchise is when the heavenly ark music instantly transforms to terror with the death angels.  I think I am looking forward to the Dial theme (assuming there is one), but little moments like that are just as fun.

    Oh man this is a tough one. Since no one else mentioned it, I’m looking forward to seeing and hearing the villains demise. One reoccurring theme in all 4 soon to be 5 (hopefully and probably) is Indy never takes out the head villain, they all die at their own hands. My favorite cue is The Broken Bridge, since Doom is my favorite in every category, but The Miracle of the Ark is a close second. And each film is different in its own way, so they’re all unique. Plus, theres a 7 foot tall giant trying to take Indy out as well, and I can’t wait to see and hear how he’s taken out.

    They couldn't get the licensing for the song from the film, yet they could get his back catalog. Brilliant!!

    Some kind of "reveal". Like in every IJ score there's some sort of reveal where the music swells. "The Map Room" is a good example. Or Indy walking up to the Sankara stones, or the UFO taking off. Etc, etc.

    Can't wait to hear the Dial of Destiny theme. So far, Williams never disappointed with the MacGuffin themes from the 4 Indy movies.

    Allow me a moment for a short soapbox speech.  I have been a fan of Williams since the 80s.  Most of us here have been fans first unconsciously and then consciously our whole lives.  Given Williams's initial comments about retirement, his commitment only to do the themes for DoD, his age, etc., I think this may very well be his last film.  If nothing else, it is likely his last film with many themes and wall-to-wall scoring.
     
    So, embrace threads like these.  Speculate and wonder away because this is it--the last time we can do so individually and collectively as fans of Williams.
