Gabriel Bezerra 302 Posted June 20, 2023 Share Posted June 20, 2023 One day I managed to recognize the theme before the theme itself started playing, just that first second of the March was enough, so in a way, she's right, who needs the four notes to recognize it? She should have said one note. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post SilverTrumpet 638 Posted June 20, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted June 20, 2023 Some little thoughts, but I have feelings... - Helena's Theme is the most beautiful thing Williams has written in....at least 20 years? The character seems like a schmuck but the theme is undeniably incredible. - Anna Sophie is there? Or was that another record session they used since... - Williams's contribution was very obviously from an older score, I see some say it was Crystal Skull, which makes sense from what he was saying. 4 hours ago, Jay said: Why did KK say 3 notes instead of 4 notes - Because she's a moron - Some of the new bits, the faster stuff, sounds incredible. I know some don't like that type of Williams composing but I love the energy I couldn't care less about the movie and probably won't bother to see it, but I cannot wait for this score.
