    Maybe I'm misunderstanding what you mean, but to me it reads as though you're suggesting that the second part of your sentence somehow undermines the first, whereas I would think that  (if anything) it reinforces it. That's to say, if the director of the most financially successful film of the year, which is also one of the biggest critical hits, doesn't get a nomination, then people who have been alleging an anti-female bias could say that just proves their point, no?

    You can see it that way too.

     

    But I see it as more ironic. I've said in the past I'm firmly against nominations or letting people win on the basis that they check a diversity box, but in this case Greta Gerwig absolutely deserved a nomination based on merit, and for some reason it didn't happen. I think Jimmy Kimmel pointed that out.

    Nope they haven't shown him

    I'm sure he wasn't there this year.

     

    I came back from watching the show at some friends. I also watched Oppenheimer just before the ceremony (which I thought was good but far from a masterpiece) Disappointed JW didn't win as usual as it was probably his last chance. We will never experience a JW Oscar win in the JWfan era now.

     

    The ceremony was a step in the right direction. They toned down the political correctness by a lot and even had fun moments added . 

     

    But for years they complain that women directors aren't nominated, then this year a woman directs the most popular movie of the year that gains multiple awards nominations...and she  didn't get a nomination!

    Alas, Oppenheimer won. Don’t think Williams is even there - they didn’t do a split screen of all the nominees, and when someone who won earlier shouted out Williams as an inspiration, they never showed him for one of those classic “reaction shots”.

    I don't think Williams was there this year. First time he misses the Oscars. I hope he's ok.

  4. Like  I said before most other composers get expanded/deluxe editions RIGHT AWAY  because they let it happen or push for it. Even if it cost more money it's easier to get things done when the movie is just out and people are interested (strike the iron while it's hot).

    Williams only want his 70 minute OST out , which means the "fees" come more into play  at a later date because there's no more motivation by anyone to get things done and it's an extra hurdle.

    If there's some really clever music editors out there, they could overlap the Rey Training cue (also available with a clean opening on the Blu-ray menu) with the end of this cue and make a new 3 minute track!

     

     

     It works  if you overlap the drumroll that ends the "meditation" cue with  the drum roll that leads into the training cue (cutting 3 seconds of music that begin the Training cue menu rip)

     

    Anyways I did that and it now sounds like a Williams assembled album track even if it's not really meant to go there.

     

    Keeping the 2 cues separate with the first having a weird ending and the other a fake fade in sounds like you just tossed in 2 Blu Ray menu tracks 

     

    I just listened to the OST FYC edit I have and the combined cues fit right in without my ears being alerted that something was wrong.
