Dave Norris 18 Posted June 23, 2023 Share Posted June 23, 2023 16 hours ago, Thor said: Came back from the film a couple of hours ago. Pawel likened it to THE LAST CRUSADE (which IMO is not only the best Indy score, but on my alltime top 10 JW list), but I'm afraid I didn't hear it. In fact, I felt quite the opposite. TLC is ripe with one individual setpiece after the other, containing longlined themes and clearcut beginnings, middles and ends. It's like a string of different concert pieces, both on album and in the film. DIAL, on the other hand, is far more in line with CRYSTAL SKULL, or the new STAR WARS scores -- i.e. 'contemporary' JW, with lots of small cells alternating and stacked on top of each other, like a puzzle. A short brass outburst there, a cymbal crash there, frenetic strings jumping around the scale. It's very busy, schizophrenic and -- to be honest -- very close to what I had expected. That being said, there were some interesting nuggets here and there. "Helena's Theme", obviously, which is nice. Some references to existing Indy music, also beyond "Raiders". And -- interestingly -- a suspense ostinato fairly early on which sounded like it came right out of the MINORITY REPORT/WAR OF THE WORLDS school. Basically a version of the "Spyder" theme from MINORITY REPORT. That was cool. There's also some setpiece music that is similar to "A Whirl Through Academe" from CRYSTAL SKULL or the swashbuckler sequence in TINTIN. I think JW played a bit from this in the surprise premiere performance. That was okay too. I found the mix OK for a modern action blockbuster, but the most "actioney" sequences had the music mixed too low (I saw the film in IMAX, btw). So I'm looking forward to hearing this on the OST to find if my film impression holds up or not. It wasn’t a version of Deploying the Spyders it WAS Deploying the Spyders. I also heard a cue from 1941 tucked away in there and some of Tintin. Someone liked the temp track a little too much me thinks & some of it has ended up in the movie (which btw was a complete and crushing disappointment to me-shes irritating as is the kid & I didn’t really buy into the McGuffin which is basically a brass compass).

ragoz350 453 Posted June 23, 2023 Share Posted June 23, 2023 Actually, I don't mind the closeness to temp-tracks. JW probably sees this score as his last major work, and doesn't mind going back to old (albeit suggested) ideas. Of course, it's sadder when music is copied from other Indy movies, but The Spyders from Minority Report and The Duel from Tintin are almost "one-cue" ideas in the original scores, so I'm ready to any development (even minimal) of these. crumbs 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No way Williams himself would rerecord "Spyders" for use in DOD. Why not? The only thing that we know for sure about the scoring process, that James Mangold said several times now, is that Williams originally didn't want to do it all, but contribute themes. And then he "kept writing". Probably out of duty to his second biggest franchise. The shooting and cutting of this film was messy as hell, and he's fricking 91 years old. Remember what he said about the Star Wars prequels (Episode III I think), "I initially thought my god, how am I going to write this much?" And that was nearly 20 years ago, at the spry age of 70. If he originally wanted to do themes because he deemed the entire movie too taxing, then did it anyway, and then the madness of cutting several Versions of the film, it would not at all be surprising if temp was recorded nearly verbatim. Or if there was no more time and money to rescore, and Williams took the temp, like the Tintin piece, and slightly Indy-fied it. The other possibility is that Williams recorded temp for the hell of it. And we know that this wouldn't happen in a regular John Williams scoring process. Especially not for Indiana Jones.

It's surprising, but when we're not talking about anything Tolkien-related, we tend to agree on this sort of thing. Williams is not the composer he was 20 years ago, or even 10 years ago and the demands of the modern filmmaking process demand so much more of an artist. Anyone who thinks that he was given free reign of composing time and was never at any point pressured (either by director or time) into responding to the temp track, is kidding themselves into a romantic view of the composing process, because they so badly want it to have gone the same way as the original Indy movies. He also doesn't have the same inspirational starting point or young (ish)mind he had in the 80s when coming up with the now cinematic classic set pieces. What I hope for is an engaging listen on album and a few nice new pieces. I'm not expecting Last Crusade #2.

Popular Post Richard Penna 3,734 Posted June 23, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted June 23, 2023 It's a nice thought but I don't think even SS is in a position to insulate anyone from the chaos of a modern post-production process. Nowadays, if a composer does not want to be subject to last minute changes, following the temp and other difficulties, they shouldn't write for film. JW may have collaborated heavily with someone who in the past has shown vastly more respect for his process than most directors, but it doesn't mean Hollywood will bend over backwards to lock the movie 6 months before scoring so as not to upset Williams.

A cue modelled almost entirely on prexisting music, but still newly recorded, and people want it because it's technically 'new' music from John Williams. (and half the board is pretending to themselves that 'of course the maestro never copies...') But just track the original cue in instead, and now it's 'evil tracked music' despite the creative effect and enjoyment being identical. oierem 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If so, who recorded it? No way Williams himself would rerecord "Spyders" for use in DOD. Look guys, I’ve listened to both, and the new track isn’t the same as Spyders. It just isn’t. The Spyders motif ends on one dramatic note with each repetition: the minor third of the scale. The “We Need to Get Out of Here” motif alternates between two different endings: every even variation is identical to Spyders, but every odd variation ends on two or six dramatic notes: the major third followed by the minor third in rapid succession. The Spyders motif does not utilize the major third of the scale at any point. I personally prefer the new ending with the major third. It makes it sound more frantic. It seems that John Williams took inspiration from his old Spyders motif, and improved it.

Edmilson 7,526 Posted June 23, 2023 Share Posted June 23, 2023 Maybe we should just wait for the OST to compare the two tracks and... Oh, wait. There's a huge chance that this cue will actually be unreleased Pieter Boelen 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrbellamy 6,333 Posted June 23, 2023 Share Posted June 23, 2023 It's not really that different from Ludlow motif popping up in like eight scores with superficial variations. But Spyders is even more distinctive so it sticks out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
