Why did John Williams never have a cameo in a Spielberg movie?

You could of cited Anthony Daniels and Ahmed Bests cameos in that bar scene from AOTC instead, which I would say is more an par with Williams in TROS

Same as Ahmed Best and Anthony Daniels in AOTC, in fact their screentime might be pretty close to being the same.

I did!

Not really. With TROS the camera zooms in and hangs on him, if even for a moment, with the props that surround him all in reference to the films he's been Oscar nominated for as highlighted in this video - 

 

Still a pain to think about, now years later. All the work that went into creating those easter egg references, and the whole scene is over and done with in a nano second. Like most of the film, it hurries along.

 

A funny thing to think about -- could Oma Tres have survived? The whole planet was blown to smitheerens, so probably not. But maybe there was time to evacuate, like some managed. I expect an entire spin-off series focussing on Tres' life, and how he managed to own a bar on Kijimi.

Who needs a cameo when his 5 tones is basically a character in close encounters!

JW's been auditioning for cameos his entire life, but he's always been mistaken for the composer.

Well both Zorii Bliss and Babu Frik survived, so it's possible. If he didn't escape could always make a show about him running the bar on Nevarro in the Mandoverse, imagining something like Cheers in space 😂

I'd love to see that.
