Ray Barnsbury 8 Posted November 20, 2008 Share Posted November 20, 2008 I would so love for this to happen. Just imagine the chilly, mournful "Christmas Eve in Godric's Hollow," the soaring "Flight from Gringotts," the epic "Battle of Hogwarts"...Unfortunately, there's no hope for it.

Koray Savas 2,251 Posted November 20, 2008 Share Posted November 20, 2008 Because I rather liked the Order Of The Phoenix score, and think Hooper is good enough to take on the rest of the series. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hlao-roo 389 Posted November 20, 2008 Share Posted November 20, 2008 As such, I would love to see John Williams complete the musical journey with the final Harry Potter film(s).Sorry, but that's simply not the musical journey envisioned for these films.

I don't huddle up in a corner with all my traditional scores and pretend that modern film scores don't exist. I can actually appreciate the old and the new. I like Zimmer, big deal, so do a sh*t load of other people. You always just seem to single out that 1 fact. That I like Zimmer. That's all you talk about. He's not the only composer I listen to, and I hardly listen to him at all.Because I rather liked the Order Of The Phoenix score, and think Hooper is good enough to take on the rest of the series.Not better than Williams. Your reasoning is flawed.I'm not reasoning anything. I'm just saying Hooper is good enough to finish what he started. I'd rather have Williams score Lincoln and finally get another Oscar.

Nick Parker 3,040 Posted November 21, 2008 Share Posted November 21, 2008 Very good. Anyways. Why does everyone keep insisting that it is simply impossible for John Williams to score this film?

Nick Parker 3,040 Posted November 21, 2008 Share Posted November 21, 2008 A few years ago, if I do so recall. In fact, the article is buried somewhere in this website. You can see it by looking at the "Index" or "Sources" page or whatever they call it on Wikipedia.org. Just look at John Williams' page. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Crichton 4 Posted November 22, 2008 Share Posted November 22, 2008 Man, I remember that. Talk about a comment being taken completely out of context and blown out of proportion. There's a thread about it in here somewhere. Williams was just being his usual diplomatic self, "Oh yes, I'd love to return". Even if he wants to, it might not be up to him.

Koray Savas 2,251 Posted November 22, 2008 Share Posted November 22, 2008 It won't be up to him. If Yates is directing, which he is, then Hooper will do the score. Nothing can break the sacred bong between director and composer! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maestro 147 Posted November 22, 2008 Share Posted November 22, 2008 For the record, I voted yes. Why not?But the sad fact is this. We assume that if Williams DID agree to score the final HP film, it would of course be brilliantly scored with Williams returning to his rich thematic palette from the first three films, and developing those themes in exciting new ways, building up into a gigantic, glorious finale......he didn't do that with Revenge of the Sith OR Indy IV. Perfect opportunities to employ an incredible body of work, and what do we get? Whole passages that are note-for-note lifts out of the original films, 12 minutes of the Throne Room music, boring atmospheric underscore....He doesn't seem as keen on employing and maturing past leitmotifs and musical ideas in very creative ways as he used to. Not at all.So go ahead and stay out of HP, Johnny. Do something bold and new. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Docteur Qui 1,544 Posted November 22, 2008 Share Posted November 22, 2008 Then again, he also abandoned most of the previous material for Prisoner of Azkaban and look how that turned out. That could happen again.I think he just needs to be decently inspired to right good music now. That's why ROTS and Indy 4 weren't the best, because the moves were fairly bland.

Richard Penna 3,781 Posted November 23, 2008 Share Posted November 23, 2008 Oh you listen to others, mostly zimmer klones.Oh shut up. Go listen to Crusade.I was another who voted no. I believe Williams' involvement finished, a went out in great style with PoA, I don't think his heart would be in it for another instalment after Doyle and Hooper..err, shaped the franchise.That's not to say that Ray's post didn't make me drool - of course I'd love a Potter Jungle Chase, but I doubt it's going to happen, and every moment wishing it will is a moment missed bickering about the Indy box Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
