Don't underestimate what could have been! Perhaps he would've scored the Black Lake Task in GoF akin to Mermaids from Hook but darker like A.I.? I'd love to hear how he would've handled the cavern scene from HBP. Once, Arpy and Cerebral Cortex 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While it's still early and I can't imagine we'll hear it until the release, it's great to know the music is flowing out right at this moment. There's absolutely zero chance we get the EpVIII trailer during Rogue One. The hype would almost mess with the viewing of RO. They'll let RO do it's thing and then a few months later release a trailer. That's more or less my thinking too. They need to keep the two films clearly separate.

Disco Stu 15,495 Posted December 14, 2016 Share Posted December 14, 2016 I mean, it's exactly what they already did for VII/Rogue One. They saved the first Rogue One trailer for after VII had had its cultural moment in the sun, right? Will 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honestly, at the latest I could imagine them waiting further until Beauty and the Beast in March or maybe even the next SW Celebration in April, which could possibly be concurrent with Rogue One's Bluray release. Would love to see something earlier of course. I wonder if we'll get the title before the new year. Will 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was Feb. 15, while the first Rogue One teaser (excluding the short "officially unreleased" April 2015 Celebration thing) was April 7. I now think it's perfectly possible, even likely, that the firs Ep. VIII teaser won't come until SW Celebration in April 13-16. That would follow an extremely similar schedule to Rogue One -- very short teaser long before the previous SW film was even released, then wait until the spring before release for the first "real" teaser.

On an ever so slightly more serious note: The earlier articles said the recording sessions were to begin in March or April 2017. Was the schedule pushed forward so much?

Popular Post crumbs 14,305 Posted December 15, 2016 Popular Post Share Posted December 15, 2016 This picture confirms many rumours. William Ross wrote the entire score for Episode 8. The entire score will be performed by Gloria on piano. Kobe Bryant will contribute liner notes for the release.

crumbs 14,305 Posted December 16, 2016 Share Posted December 16, 2016 Well we know Giacchino will do Episode IX if Williams can't, whether we like it or not. Trevorrow is an unabashed Giacchino fan and he's his regular composer now. Let's just remain hopeful that JW remains in good health, he's been blessed so far.
