Rogue_Leader 2 Posted May 30, 2004 Share Posted May 30, 2004 Damn you know there are SO MANTY projects coming out this summer Giacchino would have been perfect for. I mean why hire guys like that Revell guy when there are far more talented people out there like Mike. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rogue_Leader 2 Posted June 1, 2004 Share Posted June 1, 2004 BTW what other composers are there like Giacchino who emulate that Williams 1980's style? Not too many I can think of. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morlock 11 Posted June 1, 2004 Share Posted June 1, 2004 That's hardly a building block for a career. I like how some of his MoH scores seem like extensions of SPR, but otherwise, I'm waiting for The Incredibles, hopefully for Giacchino's unique voice.

Rogue_Leader 2 Posted June 1, 2004 Share Posted June 1, 2004 Screw unique voice! Give me more of that 1980's Williams-like music and I say screw originality! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morlock 11 Posted June 1, 2004 Share Posted June 1, 2004 That's a pretty strange comment coming from a supposed film score lover. If he has the talent to effectively emulate that style, I would hope this talented person would give us some of his own style. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rogue_Leader 2 Posted June 2, 2004 Share Posted June 2, 2004 Heh Heh I was joking. Well OK half joking. I want to see more variety, but I still want more of that classic JW style too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rogue_Leader 2 Posted June 3, 2004 Share Posted June 3, 2004 Anyway, I wonder how well JW and Mike know one another. Where is that guy who knew Mike. I would love to hear him answer that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he has the talent to effectively emulate that style, I would hope this talented person would give us some of his own style.Ohh come on, Star Wars has a few parts that exactly dupicate Korngold and Herrmanns style. If you are familar with Giaachino you will know he does more than just dupicate Williams style. Does the action music of COD sound like Williams? Not at all.

Rogue_Leader 2 Posted June 3, 2004 Share Posted June 3, 2004 I wouldn't say parts of SW exactly duplicate Korngold and the like. However, I would not say Giacchino exactly duplicates Williams either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Erik Woods 555 Posted June 3, 2004 Share Posted June 3, 2004 I think Michael has met Williams a few times... but I'm not 100% sure... I'll ask him.And as for other composers that compose in a Williamsesque style... Bruce Broughton anyone? How about some of James Newton Howard's recent output? Christopher Lennertz?Those are only a few I could think of.-Erik- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A24 4,345 Posted June 5, 2004 Share Posted June 5, 2004 You heard it right, fellas. Morlock just flat-out said, in the Michael Giacchino thread, that he doesn't trust Williams' opinion. And yet, at the same time, he loves and praises everything Hans Zimmer says or does. Ladies and gentlemen of the board, I think it is clear that we have to question Morlock's loyalty. I propose that from now on we keep a very close eye on this man's actions. Then again, what are you waiting for?! GET HIM!

#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 10,265 Posted June 9, 2004 Author Share Posted June 9, 2004 I'd really like to hear your reasoning behind that statement.Is it just cause i'm fairly indifferent if Conrad Pope at some point in his collaboration with Williams may have written a note or 2 to help out during a tight scoring schedule?
