Luke Skywalker 1,792 Posted October 21, 2020 Share Posted October 21, 2020 I hope they base the series in the official sequel novels, as a refined outline, not a direct transcription, even if they detour a little from them. I mean..i know they want to impress the audience with plottwists...but lord of the rings and game of thrones already had the novels and they were still succcessfull. I dont want another star wars post rotj reboot again. And most important ..most people in the world dont even know a sequel trilogy of novels was written....

Disco Stu 15,495 Posted December 10, 2020 Share Posted December 10, 2020 This is weirdly the Lucasfilm series I’m most excited about. A fairy tale type classical fantasy world isn’t something we get a lot of these days. mstrox 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kasdan? As in Lawrence Kasdan? Why? He's great! Sorry to hear that Chu left. He seemed like a proper fanboy to get things right. Then again, so seemed Trevorrow for JURASSIC WORLD, but that was a miss. Would be great if Howard took the directing reigns himself, at least for the first couple of episodes.

As I've no doubt said earlier in the thread, I fear a) Simon Franglen, a rather soulless composer who seems to get Horner-related projects now that his mentor is gone, and b) any of the three major "emperor's new clothes" composers out there, i.e. Göransson, Desplat and Giacchino. Beyond that, I'm open to pretty much anyone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raiders of the SoundtrArk 2,429 Posted July 20, 2021 Share Posted July 20, 2021 Please not Göransson, I'm sick of his scores. I know that many here like his work on The Mandalorian but apart from the theme I find it was not really better than any average RCP score if not worst. Plus I'm not sure that his "electronic" style will suit the universe of Willow, like it didn't already suite the SW one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edmilson 7,367 Posted July 20, 2021 Share Posted July 20, 2021 John Debney may do a decent work on the score, he is great when he is not attached to silly comedies. And Christopher Young should have done a fantasy movie/TV show long ago. Please, Lucasfilm, take him out of the low budget horror movies!

Raiders of the SoundtrArk 2,429 Posted July 20, 2021 Share Posted July 20, 2021 Both composers would be great I think. I also think that Nicolas Britell might do an interresting thing. His last work on Cruella was really good IMO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stark 306 Posted July 22, 2021 Share Posted July 22, 2021 All interesting options! I can’t really see Giacchino having time for it though, and somehow I have a feeling Desplat isn’t enthusiastic to work on another Disney franchise... Britell could be cool, I’ll throw Daniel Pemberton’s hat into the ring because I love his music and he composed the Dark Crystal show recently.

Yavar Moradi 2,576 Posted July 22, 2021 Share Posted July 22, 2021 Samuel Sim who co-composed The Dark Crystal with him would also be a great pick… Here’s my favorite Samuel Sim score though, if anyone is unfamiliar…so good: Yavar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is in the new Top Gun movie that hasn't come out yet, although I'm guessing not a large role and the producers are actually re-creating Kilmer's voice in a computer using artificial intelligence or something. I'm guessing he won't be in the new Willow series, but I guess you never know, maybe a small cameo. I doubt Disney would be willing to pay to do that computer voice recreation just for a miniseries though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luke Skywalker 1,792 Posted November 12, 2021 Share Posted November 12, 2021 I’ll say it again, they should adapt the sequel books. What if people already know the story (i dont think it would be many people, though), they did lord of the rings didnt they? And it was a success regardless. they should not make the same error as in the sequel trilogy, and i hope willow doesnt die… and they can adapt the story it doesnt have to be page by page copy. Just follow the main plotpoints and same characters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
