He'll probably announce his involvement after he finishes IF. That's usually how he does it.

Great discovery of the weekend!

While remembering the Blu-Ray menu gave us the clean version of the "Rey Training" cue which is unreleased, I wanted to see what the DVD menus had since those usually contain additional screens for the "Scene Selection" and "Language/Subtitles".

The amazing @crumbs found a complete DVD rip and we were able to find another previously unreleased cue, not featured on the Blu-Ray!!

It is the "Meditation" cue, featured in the "Scene Selection" menu:

Another DVD exclusive menu for the language setup comes with the section of "Reunion" that contains Rey & Yoda's Theme, which is on the OST, so no other unreleased music there.

This is all new information, right?

This is such a pretty cue! I need more!

I just wrote in my comment why this director was hired. Tokenism over merit. How is an activist documentary filmmaker with no experience qualified to direct a friggin’ Star Wars movie?
There are literally dozens of great directors with numerous big budget films under their belt who are way more qualified for the job. Why is Disney taking risks now by giving a Star Wars film to an activist who has a clear political agenda, right when Star Wars has lost most of its fanbase, and they haven’t had a major financial success since 2019?

Woman gets job = politcal agenda. Lol grow up.

Also we haven't had a movie since 2019 so what have they lost money on? Lol

All the people in the world excited to see this movie:

I am.

I've seen the movie 5 times already. Gets better with each watch imo.

But isn't he he currently more into Helena? Daisy is so 4 years ago

Wait until Rey's apprentice is played by another cute white British brunette and John Williams will write so much music they'll have to turn it into another trilogy.

He wasn't nominated for The BFG in 2017, nor Kingdom of the Crystal Skull in 2009.

He should've been! Especially for The BFG!

Damien F · December 10, 2023

Let's be realistic. It's sad to think about, but 2026 is very far away, especially for someone John's age. He'll be 94 when the movie comes out. Time aside, there's also the possibility that Williams is probably more than happy to step away from action heavy franchise movies (see him talking about how he initially was hesitant to score Dial of Destiny because of the time and effort it takes the score movies of this scale). Sharmeen Obaid-Chinoy would probably wanna work with someone else (probably Laura Karpman). Maybe John will write a theme for a new heroine and pass the score to someone else (Powell, Giacchino, Karpman, Ross). But there's no way John Williams will score the whole movie.

Brando · November 10, 2023

In addition to receiving a nomination for The Fabelmans, John Williams earned 2 Grammy nominations for Dial of Destiny! Well deserved imo.

Really? If there is ANY podcast that John Williams would do, it would be a Jon Burlingame/Disney produced podcast. Burlingame has had Williams as a guest on previous audio productions (80th birthday show on KUSC-FM) and has interviewed him for Variety so it seemed inevitable that Jon would get John.

-Erik-

Oh I didn't know that! I was always under the appreciation that John Williams is kinda hard to nail for interviews.

Brando · October 11, 2023

John Willliams talking about Phoebe Waller-Bridge like he did Daisy Ridley is so sweet. Homie will be making themes for attractive white brunette British women until he retires. :lol:

Maybe if Rey's apprentice in the Sharmeen Obaid-Chinoy Star Wars is played by an actress of that sort, he'll find a way to be involved.

Martinland · October 11, 2023

Love this podcast. Never guessed Jon would get John Williams on this show.

Highlight is John saying James Mangold is "so young and full of energy and promise" as if isn't a 60 year old man. Lol

Now that both soundtracks are out, time to make complete videos for Baylan, Morgan, and the New Republic while also making videos for Shin and Anakin.

Woo!

October 4, 2023

Soundtrack credits confirmed.

Tiburon · October 2, 2023

Really dope interview with the Kiners. Apparently Shin has a theme.

Really fun insights here.

BTW, if you do those suites please share them here, as I usually love listening to those kind of fan-made compilations!

I'm gonna have to make second videos when Vol 2 comes out, but these were so much fun to make!

Still gotta keep an ear open for other themes.

I shall! Almost done organizing the themes. Just gotta download the audios and edit them together.

Also may update them when Vol 2 comes out. Lol

September 16, 2023

Making my way through the soundtracks so I can make theme suites for my YouTube channel. But I gotta say, the music has been spectacular on its own so far.

So far I've found themes for Baylan, Morgan, and the New Republic. Not sure if Shin has one tho.

Wish every Star Wars music release was this expansive.

Damn, didn't know so many people hated Giacchino's work. Pity. I love all the composers mentioned by name here so I have to come up with my own answer.

While I like their work on The Social Network and Soul, I don't think Trent Reznor & Atticus Ross are all that in the grand scheme of things. Empire of Light specifically is a film score that flat out put my ass to sleep. Not sure why Thomas Newman wasn't asked to score that film, but he was missed.

Their score for the new Ninja Turtles movie was really disappointing and probably the worst part of an otherwise great movie. Not saying they're bad composers, can't think of a bad film composer at the top of my head. But man, I wish they knocked it out of the park more often.

Sidenote: John Powell should've won the Oscar for How To Train Your Dragon. Was mad at 12, mad now.

Tintin is well-regarded by many on the board (as this thread proves), but its detractors are vehemently opposed when it (and BFG) receives high rankings.

I don't get why. Those scores kick ass.

Yavar Moradi · September 10, 2023

Yesterday at the BBC Proms, Laura Karpman's main theme for The Marvels was performed and man, it sounds pretty dope so far. I'm also a sucker for a cello in a superhero theme. I dug Pinar Toprak's theme for the first movie, but this theme really suits my film score tastes a little bit more.

Laura Karpman is a severely underrated talent so I'm happy she's finally being given a big budget blockbuster. I loved her score for Ms. Marvel and her score for What If was really the saving grace of that series for me. Cannot wait to hear the whole score, I'm already watched this video an obscene amount of times.

JNHFan2000 · September 6, 2023

Music this episode continues to be fucking incredible.

Also, our first use of a Williams theme and it wasn't one I expected to hear. Though in retrospect, it makes sense.

artus_grayboot · September 4, 2023

This guy points out that the one melody at the end of Episode 3 was indeed a theme for Baylan. Turns out it was also in my favorite music cue in Episode 1.

Morgan's Theme sounds cool too.

"Free pass" my ass!

@Courtney, if there are two scores that you "cannot bear to leave off", then, logically, there are ten scores that you can bear to leave off. You already left off HOOK. You can do it

I'll painfully leave Tintin and Empire of the Sun.
