indy4 155 Posted November 22, 2010 Share Posted November 22, 2010 Touchstone is a part of Disney. As for the Disney crowd, that's completely subjective.My point is, while a film with the Disney logo on it would probably cut back on gore and violence, a studio owned by Disney but that doesn't have the Disney logo won't necessarily cut back.

Matt C 456 Posted November 22, 2010 Share Posted November 22, 2010 Technically, Disney doesn't own Dreamworks Pictures. They just have a marketing and distribution deal, similar to Marvel Studios' deal with Paramount Pictures.The trailer for I am Number Four just has the Dreamworks logo, no Touchstone logo anywhere.

JoeinAR 1,949 Posted November 22, 2010 Share Posted November 22, 2010 will it be a cut away shot or a graphic depiction of the bullet going through his head?he'll shoot it SPR style, very graphic, lots of blood and bone and gray matter. Lewis will have a dramatic overwrought death scene. He'll take antidepressants to make him depressed to be in the role. Ms. Lincoln will be portrayed as the closeted lesbian that she was. Spielberg will have Mudd portrayed sympathetically.Miss Padme, some of us think Munich is a piece of shit. I find it Spielberg's most vile film, well beneath him. It's as close to a snuff film as possible. John's score is nothing special, and certainly not his best as KS foolishly insists. It's an outright insult to John's best scores for him to suggest that.

John Crichton 4 Posted November 22, 2010 Share Posted November 22, 2010 Munich is a fine score from a successful and underrated year for Williams, and is a good listen on CD.

Mr. Breathmask 555 Posted November 22, 2010 Share Posted November 22, 2010 Munich doesn't gel with me. Is it a thriller, a pamflet, a psychological drama? It tries to be many things at once but ends up having very little identity at all. Its message also struck me as particularly obvious ("Violence is baaad"? No shit, Sherlock!).

Hlao-roo 389 Posted November 29, 2010 Share Posted November 29, 2010 I know JW won't let us down with a very memorable theme for another American president.Has Williams ever written "a very memorable theme" for an American president? JFK is pretty nice but fairly derivative of Superman, or possibly Conrack. Nixon has good thematic material, too, but I don't know that the most memorable parts of it refer directly to the president himself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ST-321 4 Posted April 13, 2011 Share Posted April 13, 2011 Here's the part most important to me:Filming is set to begin this fall, with an eye towards a fourth-quarter 2012 release.Will JW be able to do this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Datameister 2,095 Posted April 13, 2011 Share Posted April 13, 2011 Seems like a good casting choice. I'd forgotten about Liam Neeson dropping out, though. I'm sure Daniel Day-Lewis will do fine, but Neeson would have sooo looked the part, and he can convey a certain air of maturity that I think would have fit the part very well. Oh well. As long as we still get a Williams score out of it!Goodness, I can't even believe we're going to have two new Williams scores by the end of the year. Considering that I wasn't enormously impressed with the overall direction of his music in the last few years that he was truly active, I probably shouldn't get my hopes too high, but the fact that he's only done one film score in the last six years (!) does make me curious to see if we get something pleasantly fresh and inventive and fun and effective. Or (and I know this won't happen) a total throwback to his work from the 80s. As much as I hate to say it, Williams probably won't do too many more film scores in his life, and I'd hate for most of them to go in the direction of, say, KOTCS. (Which I do enjoy, mind you, but I'm ready for him to be done with his stylistic tendencies of the 2000s that kind of culminated in that score.)

Datameister 2,095 Posted April 13, 2011 Share Posted April 13, 2011 It definitely has some great elements, but there's also a fair amount of action writing that starts to feel a little tired to me. I guess that's my real concern. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Datameister 2,095 Posted April 14, 2011 Share Posted April 14, 2011 It's cruel that Williams went into quasi-retirement right as my fandom was started really kicking into gear. I mean, it'd been years since I first started enjoying the Star Wars LP, and he'd firmly established himself as my favorite composer, but my appreciation for his work was limited in scope and depth. Still is, I'm sure, but not as much as it used to be.Oh well. I suppose the advantage to not having an insanely huge Williams collection is that I'll be able to continue discovering "new" scores for a while.
