Popular Post mstrox 6,651 Posted April 23, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted April 23, 2021 I’m at the point now that I wouldn’t mind seeing what Zimmer would do in the Star Wars world, given the right project. With Giacchino and Powell and especially Ludwig’s work, the edges are already blurred for what it means to be a Star Wars score, even if you don’t consider the animated/video game work. Someare great, some less so. (Id more prefer that Powell become the new house composer if Williams isn’t interestsd, but whatever).

Edmilson 7,474 Posted April 23, 2021 Share Posted April 23, 2021 Zimmer will probably score Patty Jenkins' Star Wars movie, and probably won't have the help of John Williams, like Powell did. The Zimmer haters may start despairing now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Evanus 217 Posted April 23, 2021 Share Posted April 23, 2021 I'm not looking forward to all the terrible SW scores we'll have to endure in the near future, with so many projects being worked on. I just hope they get a decent composer for the Obi-Wan show at least. Smeltington, Raiders of the SoundtrArk and MikeH 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HunterTech 994 Posted April 23, 2021 Share Posted April 23, 2021 I reckon the non-Williams Potter ones, given how absolutely decimated some of those get in terms of reception. Though I figure we could whittle it down to just Hooper, given Doyle and Desplat tend to get acknowledged more favorably in that respect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disco Stu 15,495 Posted April 23, 2021 Share Posted April 23, 2021 I dunno, I'm not even close to as big a Giacchino fan as some on the board (I run hot and cold on him), but for a while there it really was impossible to have a thread conversation about Gia without having to sift through a lot of negativity and roasting of him and his music.

Smeltington 1,441 Posted April 23, 2021 Share Posted April 23, 2021 Actually someone should make a big poll of every major composer with options "He rocks!" or "He sucks!" for each of them. Then we'll have solid data on how many JWFans really do hate Gia and Zimmer, or if it just feels like everyone hates them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Makes it a lot easier to be open to new takes, even if they're horrible. I'd love another Powell Star Wars score but I definitely don't want to see anybody just making themselves at home right away...I feel like only a hack would want to be the next "official" Star Wars guy, anyway.

Ollie 1,059 Posted May 5, 2021 Share Posted May 5, 2021 I dunno, I’m Star Warsed out right now. I've had my fill and haven’t been bothered to watch anything since ROS. At this point JunkieXL could become the in-house composer for Lucasfilm & score everything and I wouldn’t care.

mstrox 6,651 Posted May 5, 2021 Share Posted May 5, 2021 I agree with more Solo, although I’m sure some don’t (when I started typing this an hour ago before I got sidetracked, I coulda predicted Stu’s response )! I thought Solo was good fun, and I’d love to see some of the new characters like Q’ira and Enfys Nest explored in more depth. The fact that they haven’t popped up much or at all in books, comics, etc. in any meaningful way means to me that they’ll probably pop up again elsewhere - maybe the Lando D+ series, Book of Boba (Q’ira) and/or maybe Enfys in the republic commandos show that is presumably missing a female lead now.
