Jay 37,558 Posted March 24, 2023 Share Posted March 24, 2023 Looks like you pasted the link part in the text box and the text part in the link box Anyways, isn't Giant Freaking Robot notoriously uncredible / largely just a rumor mill? Since there's nothing about this project on Variety, Deadline, or Hollywood Reporter, I'd take it with a massive grain of salt Andy and Toillion 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toillion 219 Posted March 24, 2023 Author Share Posted March 24, 2023 I fixed the link. Yeah it’s definitely a rumor that may not be very credible. But i would love to see them team up again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And unless you count the Star Wars sequels (or Crystal Skull), he hasn't dabbled in sci-fi scoring for nearly two decades now. I'd love to hear how a 90-something JW would approach a film like Arrival, for example. Modern sci-fi scoring tends to be more atmospheric and textural. I'd love a return to that romantic-classical approach Williams employs in the genre (albeit with sharper edges in some cases). Edmilson 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's in a very different category to the likes of Minority Report, A.I., Close Encounters, Jurassic Park and War of the Worlds, in my mind anyway. Which would be separate again to the likes of E.T., which has science fiction elements but the film is about something else entirely. Then you have outliers like The Lost World. Does anyone consider that a science fiction movie? It's more of a survivor-horror movie with sci-fi elements. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who would deny that. Isn't Alien a science fiction and a survivor horror movie at a time as well? Jurassic Shark 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In my mind Jurassic Park explores its concept and poses interesting questions, which feel right at home in the science fiction genre. The Lost World ... does not. It's little more than an excuse to maroon people on an island with dinosaurs, then meanders around for 90 minutes with some half-baked environmental message. It would've been a stronger film if it explored the science from Crichton's book, but Koepp and Spielberg jettisoned all that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Romão 2,276 Posted March 27, 2023 Share Posted March 27, 2023 The spaceship that kickstarts the plot in Alfred Bester's absolutely incredible book The Stars My Destination was called Nomad. Gully Foyle, the main character, even had it tattooed on his forehead. I can only dream... pete 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
