#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 10,262 Posted November 16, 2011 Share Posted November 16, 2011 Good read.Still doesn't fully explain why Spielberg went to WETA instead of ILM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quintus 5,396 Posted November 16, 2011 Share Posted November 16, 2011 Because ILM went off the boil a while back.Williams wrote this lenghty concert piece for Tintin's theme, which was big, bold and bombastic, but we thought it didn't fit the character, so we decided to scrap that version, and we ended up with the jazzy one that is in the film. Word is it was a masterpiece, but if it don't fit it don't fit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ricard 2,107 Posted November 17, 2011 Share Posted November 17, 2011 No. That's an exact quote from the article. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Presto 4,731 Posted November 17, 2011 Share Posted November 17, 2011 For real? it doesnt sound like spielberg for some reason...EDIT: all it says is: "The final critical element was the score by legendary composer and longtime Spielberg collaborator John Williams. "John is the bonding agent that unifies all the disparate, eclectic elements of a movie, and his unifications are what makes John a genius and what makes all of us who work with him so grateful for him," Spielberg marvels" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quintus 5,396 Posted November 17, 2011 Share Posted November 17, 2011 Faleel, Spielberg is known for his brutality when reviewing completed cues from Williams. This Tintin piece is just another casualty of the Spielberg film making process, like the swiftly exercised choral arrangement of the Raiders March in KotCS.

Quintus 5,396 Posted November 17, 2011 Share Posted November 17, 2011 Even Spielberg can have a temper, if his collaborators aren't on his wavelength. Dan Aykroyd went into detail about it in his controversial biography, 1941: The Bearded Ego and Me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luke Skywalker 1,678 Posted November 17, 2011 Share Posted November 17, 2011 Good read.Still doesn't fully explain why Spielberg went to WETA instead of ILM.I know you wrote this so i would jump on it...But really, a little brainwork would have had the answer for you 1st, Peter jackson is producing it.2nd, They finally settled to make the film because cameron showed them what he was doing in Avatar.It's like if Spielberg had used another SFX company for Raiders, having george lucas as a producer. it does not make ANY sense.Simple enough?For the critical role of Snowy, they did what Jackson had long ago impressed Spielberg with-a fully animated dogReally, i mean, really Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nightscape94 965 Posted November 17, 2011 Share Posted November 17, 2011 Has there been any quotes or articles where Jackon discusses the score? I haven't seen anything and I'm interest to see what his reactions were to working with Williams. Given his love of music and Spielberg that must have been a dream come true for him.
