I wonder if you'd say the same or still think it had any value if it was left off the OST.

I think it was a good track to play at Easter when my nephews were searching for eggs in the garden!

George Lucas is coming back for 10, guys. James Cameron is involved!

Awesome!
 
I think this score will be revelatory in expanded form someday. Let's hope we're not waiting decades

We continue to muse on the little sheet leak on TROS...
 
This time 1M6 Ren's Entrance cue. We know that it is intended for the scene on Mustafar, which is where the final film begins. The Oracle, who was later cut from the film, was also present in this scene. This cue has a later version (1M15 Vader's Castle), which is shorter in length and partially used in the film.
This scene was not originally in the beginning of the movie - before it there was Rey's training (cues 1M3-5). 
I didn't think to do a video for this cue at first (since only the very last shots in the final film is intact), but since I started posting all the mockups in this thread, I decided not to make a confusion.
 
The beginning of the cue was obviously temp-tracked by Padme's Ruminations from Ep. III that JW almost repeated (by removing the synth and adding string clusters). I "restored" this part in very rough way... Honestly, I have no idea what was supposed to happen here - the slo-mo footage was already in the teaser, but there may have been more.
The string fragment sounding during the perhaps gradual appearance of the Oracle was moved into 7M20 Approaching the Throne cue by the composer. 
It's also interesting to note the rendition of the Imperial March, which seems to be heard here during the dialogue - in the newer version of the cue, the March sounds very loud and longer, apparently during the added (and then deleted) shot of Vader's castle. 
After that, Oracle disappears, and Kylo takes the Wayfinder. Interestingly, unlike the new version, there is no Kylo theme or Wayfinder motif here. 
And an abnormally long chord (if the timecode is to be believed) is followed by a transition to 1M7 cue - possibly Journey to Exegol.

And still, every time I see young Boba picking up his fathers helmet I expect the head to drop out of it.

This... this is a joke right? The Apple Music folks are just screwing with us?

Somehow I don't think so. I think he'll come close but ultimately ride off into the sunset... again. You can't kill Indy!

But surely what you mean is that you just don't care if they get expansions, right? Not that you're actively against them being done for those of us that do want them (which is literally everyone else here)?

No, he just doesn't want any of them to have expansions.

@Datameister I'm sure the kids who grew up with ToD are now suffering from some form of racial bias and now look back at their childhood with regret and suicidal thoughts, instead of thinking how cool it was for Indy to throw a bald guy into the jaws of crocodiles by inciting the power of some magical stones, or when Short Round smashed the brainwashed Indian kid, releasing him from his nightmarish existence.
 
Jesus, I think most people are aware of the social wrongs in an Indiana Jones film, but also recognize fiction from fact.
 
I'm sick of this retroactive social criticism of scifi and fantasy films as if everyone in the past responsible for these children's films were racist bigots. 

Nah, that's just what Mike Zeroh wanted you to believe. 

HOLY SHIT
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
What a neat idea, this would be so nice to have!

It's been nearly 24 hours since Jay posted that LLL has a TikTok and I'm really the first one to post this?
 

Yea, I think its called a memorial page or something like that? I also remember reading you can set up who's in charge of the page after you pass if you look around in the settings.

Youtube autocompleted the John Williams track / scene I was going to type, even though I don't recall having ever listened to it on the platform. Maybe the algorithm is trying to shteer shinful youth towardsh shalvation....
 

I find it difficult to find the right balance between ignoring their comment, casually commenting on it, and full out nerding out over it. Especially when I don't know how much into the whole JW/film music world they are themselves.

There is also this one from years ago :
 

Haha that's pretty great. I don't have any examples to contribute, but I do always feel pretty strange when I'm in a group of people and someone else brings up John Williams or starts humming his work.

Yes, that's the Demi Fragale recording that I rather naively "produced" back in my old high school choir room more than 20 years ago and shared with the JWFan community. Hardly a long lost demo, I'm afraid! I'm still surprised that this gets passed around as much as it does ... and that there aren't a dozen popular YouTube fan recordings just like it.

Ok, so it seems that they didn’t share it in the original podcast I previously mentioned, which is the screenshot. The screenshot is a conversation between 2 people, one who, at the time, was preparing for a podcast series on the production of Hook, which released like 2 weeks ago. In episode 2, he actually shared the demo not sung by Andrews, and that is here: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/hooked/id1594405769?i=1000543710484 at 13:28.

At least the new LLL Fiddler demonstrated that song pre-recordings aren't off-limits for expansions, so there's hope Mike will be able to include Hook's early songs/demos on a new expansion.
 
Would be a licensing nightmare of course, given the clearances involved with vocal talent (and could explain why the 30th anniversary went begging).
 
These must be the elements MV mentioned were discovered back in 2012 (for the first expansion) but couldn't be released.

Hopefully that time is sometime next year!
