IrishCal24 0 Posted October 15, 2002 Share Posted October 15, 2002 According to a report on CountingDown.com, a snippet of an interview from Scottish magazine Move Music Now #11, he does. He also mentions Episode III, Indy IV, and expresses interest in JP4. I've never even heard of this magazine before, but then again, I don't live in Scotland.

JoeinAR 1,949 Posted October 15, 2002 Share Posted October 15, 2002 If this is indeed true then this is excellent news.William you say you want John to do good movies, well Prisoner of Azkaban is probably considered by a majority of HP fans as the best book.Can you imagine the Dementor's theme, just thinking about it gives me chills. This would be the closest the John has come to scoring a horror film in some time.We knew that John was a lock for Ep. III, and Indy IV, but JP IV tells me that Steven wasn't happy with Don Davis' score for JPIII, I know I wasn't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hlao-roo 389 Posted October 15, 2002 Share Posted October 15, 2002 I dunno...based on '97, I'd've agreed with Justin. And since Justin thought Minority Report and Episode II rocked, it's not too hard to see where he's coming from.You know, if JW doesn't score anything in 2003, we can expect a long drought on this forum...Oh, yeah, I liked Don Davis's stuff for The Matrix, too, and I doubt Williams could or would want to weld a score together with all those songs at this stage in his career.

Romão 2,276 Posted October 15, 2002 Share Posted October 15, 2002 I've said this before, but I wish John Williams would score Pirates of the Caribean and the Alexander the Great biopic in 2003.I do hope he does not score the matrix sequels (which I'm sure he won't).And just to think in these sucessive scores : HP3, Episode III and Indy IV. All these movies have the potential for great scores. I couldn't be more excited about the projects he will do in this period. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trumpeteer 302 Posted October 15, 2002 Share Posted October 15, 2002 We all know Williams likes to work constantly. But I think he could use a vacation in the Caribbean or something. He's almost stretching himself too thin. I'd rather get one great score from him in one year than two good ones. The past 18 months have given us five scores from JW -- that's 600 minutes of music. And if I remember correctly, JW says a good day produces a minute of music officially composed, which means he experienced a lot of . That means no time in between each film to mull over the film, play with ideas, have lots of leeway in the recording session time and enough time to rescore if needed.The whole mess with the tracked music and bad edits in "Attack of the Clones" brought me to that conclusion. If Williams a) had the time to write music for the droid battle, I bet our gripes about the film would be diminished and B) he would be able to do the full "Harry Potter" score.So here's to a well-deserved break in 2003. And I doubt JWfan.net will suffer because of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morn 8 Posted October 15, 2002 Share Posted October 15, 2002 No, he will have to do at least 1 score in 2003, he's not getting any younger. That way, he'll still have several months off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Director 1 Posted October 16, 2002 Share Posted October 16, 2002 Don't forget guys...and lady: Johnny is composing a new fanfare for the Walt Disney Concert Hall in L.A. and he'll be composing his horn concerto for the Chicago Symphony. That alone could take him up to 4 months to get it perfect. And he might show up in a few concerts throughout the country...you never know.Poor guy. He needs a break. 2004-2006 are going to keep him very busy. Take care,Director Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Romão 2,276 Posted October 17, 2002 Share Posted October 17, 2002 I don't like the Matrix. First, is not original at all.

Marian Schedenig 8,240 Posted October 17, 2002 Share Posted October 17, 2002 Davis's The matrix was so good that I doubt Williams would do better. I agree. The score works so well partly because of its style, and Williams would have used a totally different style. I think the JP3 score has good parts, although it doesn't come close to the Williams scores. I think a Williams Matrix would have a similar relation to the Davis score.Marian - who likes the film a lot and is looking forward to the sequels.

Romão 2,276 Posted October 20, 2002 Share Posted October 20, 2002 For example, Dark City. In it's essence, the Matrix plot was pretty much the same. So we're being manipulated by some unseen force and we don't even realise it. is thta original? I hardly think so. It was done a million times in books and movies.

JoeinAR 1,949 Posted October 20, 2002 Share Posted October 20, 2002 Matrix is overrated. but I still liked it.The wrap around camera work isn't original. It was used in the NFL before the Matrix came out. Nows its the most annoying type of shot used in film to day. The effects that won the Oscar were not nearly as innovative as those used in the Phantom Menace which lost due to the backlash against Star Wars and the fact the TPM wasn't a really good film.I am looking forward to the next films in the series but the choice to premiere on film next summer and one next winter means they lose some of the boxoffice potential do to overkill.
