Pellaeon 593 Posted July 18, 2018 Share Posted July 18, 2018 TPM has a good score. The problem is that TPM the movie is a punchline. Out of all the thousands of film scores, it’s not in anyone’s top 10 or 20 or 30. Star Wars is always going to be about the OT + the most recent releases. So I have to wonder if it’s because JW vetoed it or because there was never any interest in sponsoring it anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Holko 9,526 Posted July 18, 2018 Share Posted July 18, 2018 To be honest, if we go by how they do the OTs in concert, we're probably better off not hearing the absolutely massacred mangled mess that is the Prequel scores in-movie. TPM the complete intended score is an absolute wonder, highlight after highlight after highlight, and this carries the jumpy OST, too. crumbs 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crumbs 14,316 Posted July 18, 2018 Share Posted July 18, 2018 It'll make for a fantastic LTP performance too, considering the volume of music (the most of any Star Wars film thus far). They showed no restraint in their spotting sessions (Williams often joking that, with Star Wars, he just scores from start to finish nowadays) and Johnson certainly didn't share JJ's reluctance to overscore the drama. I imagine many a musician will be sweating on performing TLJ though. It starts with a bang and never relents for more than a minute. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JW is no mug; he'd be fully aware the prequels were dud movies (hence his overscoring and delightful lack of restraint, desperately attempting to elevate them), and he'd know the general critical consensus. Couple that with how his scores were actually treated, the mess that ends AOTC, and the amount of edits/tracking, they would simply be a nightmare to assemble into sheet music and too disjointed for an orchestra to perform.

In fact, I hope at some point they will move to the next level and start playing some movie scores in their entirety, or almost in their entirety, without the movie, restoring the cues as they were intended and not as they were edited. The score of TPM would probably benefit from such a treatment, as it is full of wonderful pieces. At the end, most of the people who go to the LTP concerts are mainly going to hear the music cues being played live, so it would not be so harmful to just take the movie away! tmarps and Holko 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just know that, for NYC where this whole thing premiered, TFA was the one that wasn't remotely sold out and barely sold any tickets initially. The newer movies won't sell nearly as much as the OT. And I would argue that TLJ is far more divisive than TFA. So good luck selling tickets to that! I actually would love to hear the prequels preformed alone, without having to watch the actual films.

mrploddy 3 Posted July 30, 2018 Share Posted July 30, 2018 Hi all, Just thought I'd pop on to say I was at the special 3 films in 1 day Star Wars performance in Tokyo. As someone who has been a long time lover to be able to hear all 3 scores live for the first time in 1 day was a magnificent moment. For the most part the orchestra were heros and the sound produced fitted the cues I know so well. The only criticism points I could have were - - The Ewok sound effect music wasn't perfect - There was no "choir" effect for the Emperor's throne room But apart from that especiall the Cloud City part of ESB was spectacular. The Orchestra got a loud 5 minute standing ovation at the end for obvious reasons - 10 hours of performance in 1 day. -mrploddy Holko 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Parker 3,040 Posted July 30, 2018 Share Posted July 30, 2018 Holy smokes, that's crazy! How long were the intermissions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrploddy 3 Posted July 30, 2018 Share Posted July 30, 2018 Started 11am finished at 09:45pm at night. The tickets were 32,000 yen and sold out very quickly - they had a special credit card sized ticket - proper embossed like a store card which you put in to a lanyard to make it easy for readmission in the mad rush to get food. 20 minute breaks at the half way points of the film and 90 minute breaks between films. A recipe for sore posterior. Not something I was interested in but they were selling a special LP version of A New Hope - is that being sold in the west or Japan only?

Mr. Breathmask 555 Posted July 30, 2018 Share Posted July 30, 2018 That sounds amazing. Kudos to the orchestra for making it through such a marathon session! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrploddy 3 Posted July 30, 2018 Share Posted July 30, 2018 Oh it was supremely amazing. I have wanted to hear things like The Battle of Hoth, Escape from Cloud City, Celebration / End Credits live for a long time. Just to hear the Fox fanfare sent tingles through my body.

crumbs 14,316 Posted July 30, 2018 Share Posted July 30, 2018 Disney are absolutely nuts not having an expanded release of the OT available at these concerts. They would sell like bloody hotcakes, in huge volumes! Bilbo and Jay 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrploddy 3 Posted July 30, 2018 Share Posted July 30, 2018 They had the new "remastered" versions on sale that have been released recently. But yes for John Williams fans if they had expanded editions on sale they would sell yes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Breathmask 555 Posted July 30, 2018 Share Posted July 30, 2018 I guess it's because Disney caters to the average crowd, not the specialty market. The average crowd doesn't even know there's such a thing as expanded releases, album re-recordings or unreleased music. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

karelm 2,913 Posted July 31, 2018 Share Posted July 31, 2018 Should we have a sticky thread for JW live to projection? For example, Pacific Symphony (a very fine orchestra) is doing ET live to projection on August 18 which I would check out if I hadn't already experienced it. https://www.pacificsymphony.org/tickets/concert/ET_in_concert Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
