crumbs 14,306 Posted June 29, 2018 Share Posted June 29, 2018 Wow-ee, surely the least surprising news ever. Koepp's script must have been absolute rubbish (also the least surprising news ever) to trash it after so many years in development. Glad that they're mixing things up because any idiot would've known not to re-hire the writer of KOTCS for another Indy. What a shame they've wasted 3 years of development under Koepp's hand, when the film could've been ready to shoot this year with a competent writer on board. KOTCS had a similar revolving door of writers and they still ended up with a terrible movie. Just keeping my fingers crossed Kasdan can reignite the original spirit of the series, but I don't envisage this starting production anytime soon. Can anyone see Williams scoring this now? Williams will be 89 in 2021. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's probably the worst Williams score of the last decade, if not longer. He clearly didn't give a shit about the assignment, and I say that as a massive JW fan. It's like he saw how Spielberg was phoning in so many of the bland expository scenes and decided to follow suit with mundane, uninspired underscore. I don't blame JW whatsoever though, the fault lies with the terrible movie he was asked to score. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Holko 9,517 Posted June 29, 2018 Share Posted June 29, 2018 It's a shame because he's clearly very fond of the franchise and explicitly said he'd very much like to score a 4th one if it finally happens in the 2003 DVD documentary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crumbs 14,306 Posted June 29, 2018 Share Posted June 29, 2018 Yeah, rather perplexing that we ended up with the resulting score, considering his apparent excitement for the project. Textbook "phoning it in" Williams, sad to say. Right down to the blatant lifts from other scores (like WOTW and all the note-for-note Raiders quotes). Gosh, Irina's Theme is fantastic though, plus the Jungle Chase and end credits suite. I can't stand Mutt's concert suite but Williams is clearly fond of it.
