Popular Post Tom 4,614 Posted May 20, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted May 20, 2022 So, based on these snippets, there is one thing that puzzles me. Holt clearly began scoring, or at least had signed on, prior to JW's theme, and the theme itself then gave her the tentpoles for the project. Also, she has not met him--she was not there for the recording. Why not? Wouldn't you readily fly or whatnot to be part of that, both for its own sake, but also to be there for your own edification relative to scoring duties? Not trying to be difficult--just strikes me as odd and incongruous. Andy, Edmilson, DangerMotif and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd suggest that perhaps you're conflating the reaction of a fan who would jump at the chance to be in the room where Williams is conducting, and a composer doing their job, who perhaps doesn't have the time to fly to the US when she can just as easily hear a recording and then decide with the director how to use it.

crumbs 14,276 Posted May 20, 2022 Share Posted May 20, 2022 Yeah unless Holt lives in LA, she's basically losing an entire day's worth of writing if she flies in from elsewhere. Deadlines on these sorts of projects are often ridiculously tight. You essentially run out of time rather than complete things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richard Penna 3,620 Posted May 20, 2022 Share Posted May 20, 2022 JW's recordings were a separate arrangement to fit with his schedule (as mentioned in the above video - he had a narrow window). I tend to pay no attention to PR interviews/clips because those things are always backslapping 'what the fans want to hear' stuff. They would say exactly the same thing if JW had stepped onto the podium and the subsequent minute of music left people thinking... 'is that it?'

Well, so Quote “Without John Williams, bikes don’t really fly, nor do brooms in Quidditch matches, nor do men in red capes,” said Spielberg, who has worked with Williams on 27 movies over 43 years. “There is no Force, dinosaurs do not walk the Earth, we do not wonder, we do not weep, we do not believe.” By your criteria, E.T. has a magical motif, as do the first three Harry Potter films, and the entirety of the Superman March is magical too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jay 37,045 Posted May 26, 2022 Share Posted May 26, 2022 Right. Most new music albums drop at midnight, timezone by timezone, so that's why we check iTunes NZ, because they turn midnight first. But there's been tons of times in the past few years where Disney Records titles do not drop at midnight, but instead have a simultaneous worldwide release across all timezones, at a some specific time they chose to do so Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
