publicist 4,643 Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 Hard to say, so i weant with TINTIN, the liveliest of the bunch. All others are stately, perfectly written, ripe with melody blabla but also a bit vanilla in their simple aspirations and a bit shopworn. Even WAR HORSE which i initially chose has lost a bit of its luster now. I really like to LISTEN to them (at least parts of them), but a fair assessment should also include their shortcomings.

Gruesome Son of a Bitch 6,488 Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 Either Tintin or War Horse, although neither really captivated me. So I don't care. It's been a pretty forgettable decade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 10,265 Posted August 30, 2014 Author Share Posted August 30, 2014 I agree. We havent had anything that blew we away. And I'm not sure SW7 will change that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gruesome Son of a Bitch 6,488 Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 SW7 will just be variations on Luke's theme, the Force theme and the Emperor's theme, along with a few uninteresting motifs for the MacGuffin and the new characters.I foresee a baffling absence of the Han Solo and the Princess love theme. He'll probably use the love theme from Attack of the Clones. That was, after all, the first love theme in Star Wars. Arpy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not Mr. Big 4,641 Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 SW7 will just be variations on Luke's theme, the Force theme and the Emperor's theme, along with a few uninteresting motifs for the MacGuffin and the new characters.That's pretty much what I'm afraid of. I really hope that the score amounts to more than a series of thematic reprises. The old themes should be referenced of course, but only in passing.

indy4 155 Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 Star Wars already had it's grand and nostalgic revival with TPM. And even that did not overly rely on themes from the OT. So I think we'll be fine for SW7. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Not Mr. Big 4,641 Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 TPM was set in a different timeline with different characters. There are many more themes that have to have token references. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The old themes should be referenced of course, but only in passing.I think if JJ wants the classic Star Wars sound he has to track the film with classical music or Golden Age film scores, avoiding any post-70's scores as much as possible. But I don't think Abrams is much of a music illiterate so I highly doubt he'll that take that approach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 10,265 Posted September 15, 2014 Author Share Posted September 15, 2014 The results are in. This poll is now concludedThis poll didn't give a lot of options, but I am kinda surprised War Worse is the winner. I personally chose Tintin.I will bet though, that 6 years from now, when there is a 2010-2020 poll, the upcoming Star Wars score, or the one JW might score after that will take the number one spot.
