Marian Schedenig 8,200 Posted August 29, 2015 Share Posted August 29, 2015 Yes, Han Solo dies in the first five minutes. Just because it's track 2 on the CD doesn't mean it happens early in the film. Could just as well be during the finale. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wojo 2,453 Posted August 29, 2015 Share Posted August 29, 2015 But they'll retrieve one of his arms in Episode VIII and use it to create a clone, Haan Solo.No, Episode IX. In Episode VIII, that arm will be its own character called Hand Solo. Mr_K 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cerebral Cortex 3,357 Posted August 29, 2015 Share Posted August 29, 2015 I'm just happy we're getting another John Williams Sstar Wars score. I'll take it whenever I can. If the score WAS to be released in January, would that mean it couldn't qualify for the 2016 Oscars but rather the 2017 Oscars? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Faleel 5,353 Posted August 29, 2015 Share Posted August 29, 2015 No, it would still be elligible for the 2016 oscars, CD release date has nothing to do with it. Cerebral Cortex 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Red 75 Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 I could easily see this being true given Disney's secretive approach to marketing thus far. I would prefer if it came out before the movie because I am impatient and greedy, but there are certainly advantages to it coming out after the film too.

#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 10,265 Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 Us [entitled] JW fans need remember in ourselves that the greatest music in film was originally discovered during their viewing - when we sat watching the story unfold whilst thinking to ourselves "what is this amazing music I'm subconsciously absorbing??" It was that experience which compelled us to seek the OSTs out. Chicken or the egg? To the puritan the film always came before the great score.No! We are fans! We are entitled to the full score, with alternates, plus HD video footage of the sessions, plus unrecorded music as notation on a PDF, and every single CD signed by the Maestro!I have to say I actually like this idea of having the CD come out a few weeks after the film Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not Mr. Big 4,639 Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 I might actually like this idea. Imagine hearing "Duel of the Fates" for the first time in the theater without any prior knowledge (I know that was pretty much everybody's experience with the OT but whatever). The few Williams scores I've experienced as a fan were significantly watered down by exclusive first look tracks, multiple samples, and clips of the movie (which we'll still probably get, but whatever).As a now full-fledged fan of Williams. Hearing nearly the entire new score in one sitting is an incredibly exciting prospect. crumbs 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay 37,369 Posted August 30, 2015 Author Share Posted August 30, 2015 This is all silly. EVEN IF the physical release is delayed to January, the music will be all over the internet before the film opens anyway.And yea, the track title part of the "story" makes no sense; Besides the fact the OST (and its titles) wouldn't be configured yet, its easy enough to pick non-spoilery titles. So this, obviously, makes the entire story seem bogus, but I suppose its always possible the delay IS true, but the REASONS the guy posted are wrong.Regardless, I'm sure we'll hear plenty of this score before the movie is out; Trailers, TV spots, video games, website games, underneath featurettes and interviews, red carpet premiere, etc etc.... and then the OST leak.Of course, anyone with will power can choose to not listen until after the film is released anyway.Disney likes to make money, though, and there's a 0% change the digital OST won't be up for sale on either Dec 11 or Dec 18.

Quintus 5,399 Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 I would really like this movie to surprise me by being an actual quality Star Wars film, so in order to maximise the chances of that I'm going to refrain from listening to the ost until after I've been to the cinema. Then I can larf at you all for being excitable premature nerds! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tranders65 65 Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 Just curious, when did the original SW77 soundtrack come out?Totally going by my very old memory, but I was 11 when Star Wars came out - didn't wind up seeing it until late June/early July since it didn't open in metro Atlanta until then, but I definitely remember seeing the LP in a record store at least a month before that at some point, so it must have come out either just before or right as the original movie came out. I know Empire and Jedi both came out a week or two before the movies were released. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nightscape94 965 Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 With all the hype building up around this movie, especially over the next few months when marketing is going to ramp up, with toys becoming available, I just don't see a scenario that has the OST being released in January. They're going to take advantage of every opportunity to sell this movie, and the holiday season is not to be messed with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gruesome Son of a Bitch 6,488 Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 I'd like to listen to the OST before seeing the movie so that I'm not initially disappointed by all the best parts being left off. Not Mr. Big 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sharkissimo 1,973 Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 If true, I'd prefer this. If nothing else it postpones the OCD wankiness over missing music, mockups and microedits--by at least a month. Quintus and Not Mr. Big 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crumbs 14,317 Posted August 31, 2015 Share Posted August 31, 2015 I like the idea of going in cold. It's so hard to resist listening to Williams music in advance.Just imagine hearing The Imperial March for the first time while seated in the theater. Maybe Williams has hit it out of the park and Disney want to blow people away alongside their first viewing of the film? Not Mr. Big 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not Mr. Big 4,639 Posted August 31, 2015 Share Posted August 31, 2015 We may never get a chance to hear a Williams score in this way again so I believe it's worth enduring a few weeks without the CD. Cerebral Cortex 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
