    I also don't get the negativity here. The Dial of Destiny score by Williams is just awesome. Nothing I heard in Göransson's score for Oppenheimer comes close musically. Williams is still at the top of the game. And I believe, that he has been nominated because in the academy - in opposition to large parts of this forum - there are people who see this and know what they are talking about.
     
    He might not win, and it might not be his best score and the Oscars might be ridiculous, but I believe that Williams musically wrote the best and most mature score of the year and he deserves to win.
    My view.
     
    Sometimes hard to believe, that we are in a John Williams fan forum here.

    Their previous opinions will be contorted to serve whatever their current argument is. All they know is they loved Spiderverse and want it to get more things.

    Glad the score for Attack of the Clones is finally Oscar nominated, two decades late.

    Plenty of salt on the subreddits, but plenty of love elsewhere for JW's nomination. Just to counter the negativity:

    These are the same people who thought the TFA score was "not memorable" when it came out, but now they praise it.

    I hate to see the negativity he is getting for being nominated though. Just imagine what people would say if he won. I think it's pretty dumb that people are mad that he has so many noms over the years. You don't just stop nominating someone because they already have a lot. He has so many because he's the GOAT and continues to be great!

    Taikomochi got a reaction from enderdrag64 in Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny - Isolated Score Track   
    There are some small bits of tracking to create false endings too. I’m reasonably confident the final note of Helena Runs is the end of Battle of Syracuse cut short. The end of Departures is material from Voller’s interview looped. I’m trying to think if I noticed any others.

    That's not a cue, its a track, comprised of three cues
    0:00-1:58 = 12M6/13M1    Space Battle 1:58-4:28 = 13M2    Vader's Death 4:28-end = 13M3    Through the Flames

    "And he could even be writing the soundtrack to his very own story, as we speak. In January 2023, Steven Spielberg revealed that he was making a documentary on John Williams’ life and music."

    Taikomochi reacted to Tydirium in John Williams Writes New Theme for ESPN College Football Championship - OF GRIT AND GLORY   
    Lol. Full disclaimer: I am not a sports guy, but am I the only one who finds it kind of tacky and laughable seeing football players (and college ones!) compared to NASA astronauts…? I’m a musician, but I would find it just as cringey seeing a video comparing musicians to astronauts. Anyways, love hearing the theme again, but sometimes I don’t mind forgetting what it was written for.

    Taikomochi reacted to Davis in If I was Steven Spielberg I would immediately commission JW to write dozens upon dozens of varying themes & suites to be used when, well, ya know…   
    Ah, you wouldn’t be interested in all those unreleased scores, Thor. You already have so many JW scores, and you haven’t been interested in all the unreleased music for his scores anyway, have you?
