He should have died sacrificing himself to save the Resistance in TLJ, that would have been a perfect arc for the character that needed to "get as far away from the First Order" as possible. crumbs 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But will JW's Main Title accompany them, I wonder? It would be interesting to start the Mandalorian feature movie with the crawl and JW Main Title. LG’s theme is so much in the DNA of the Mandoverse. Although, it sounds like the film will feature the New Republic story threads, for which “the Star Wars Theme” is a good fit. X-Wings and New Order and such.

Bilbo 3,710 Posted April 12, 2023 Share Posted April 12, 2023 Making a sequel to one of the most disappointing films of all time seems like a bad idea especially when the TV shows have been doing so much to salvage the brand.

Also, its mostly the older fans who dislike the trilogy so much but they need to appeal to the younger generation to keep Star Wars alive. TFA is 8 years old already and there are a lot of kids that grew up on these characters. I grew up on the prequel trilogy and I love them despite their flaws. Many people viewed them as the most disappointing films of all time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Courtney Sees Ghosts 269 Posted April 12, 2023 Share Posted April 12, 2023 Unless by some miracle of God, the Force, and Daisy Ridley they get John Williams to come back, there's so many candidates for this movie I'd love to see do the score. Michael Giacchino is always my first choice for any Star Wars project, especially whenever I think about what he can accomplish with the benefit of time. Although, after working with her on Ms. Marvel and shouting her out on Instagram, I think Sharmeen will pick Laura Karpman who is a very underrated talent. James Newton Howard has always been a personal pipe dream for me. I think he's earned his flowers in this regard. John Debney wouldn't hurt either. Another wish is that John can create a theme and someone else does the rest of the score. Which is essentially my way of saying I hope John Powell is at least considered. Whoever they get, I hope they do a great job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Andy 4,274 Posted April 12, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted April 12, 2023 Man, tough room. I love this message board, but I think there’s a tendency to get unfairly hyperbolic when it comes to Star Wars that isn’t from 77 or 80. Of course it’s flawed through adult eyes, but I still usually find myself entertained rather than repulsed. Why is Book of Boba the worst thing ever? I thought it had some remarkable things in it, like Luke’s Jedi camp. Why is Andor the best thing ever? I thought it had serious tone and pacing issues. Why is Obi Wan the worst thing ever? It had Qui Gon Jinn at last and a JW theme. I’m excited that Rey is being brought back. At least they’re going forward in the timeline instead of more prequel timeline gap filler.

crumbs 14,384 Posted April 13, 2023 Share Posted April 13, 2023 Seems like this film will be first cab off the rank of the 3 films Lucasfilm announced. Supposedly Mangold is doing his Bob Dylan biopic first, before looking at Star Wars. So 2025... it's not inconceivable that JW could write a few themes for this. The question is who he'd trust to adapt Rey's Theme, considering how protective he was during the sequels. Bill Ross or Powell? You'd have to assume JW will have some input in the decision.
