Actually don't...Umm...I'll think of some later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greg1138 3 Posted November 22, 2005 Share Posted November 22, 2005 Lucky bugger!!!!Ask him if he has ever considered retiring gracefully.....and since it is obviously something that he has decided against, can you ask him what his plans are for 2006 now that he has turned out 3 stunning scores this year with a possible fourth on the way? Also I would love to know what his most challenging score this year was, and why? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alawill 0 Posted November 22, 2005 Share Posted November 22, 2005 When does he plan to visit JWFan.net?With joe and the likes arround, i dont think it would be a pleasant visit anyway...I just asked myself something similar. What would JW think reading all the posts?Male Poll: Circumcision? (JW: "Hm, let me have a quick look...")Poll: Do you prefer ESB or food? ("Good question...")Poll: Favourite "Star Trek" Theme? ("So GL also edited the title, not only my AOTC battle music...")Scoring King Kong - Web Diary up now ("Web Diary up now? I didn´t compose a single note at the moment...")Will JW score Stone´s 9/11-project? ("So, that´s why Oliver is not picking up the phone...")What is the last score you listened to? ("Hm... I guess ESB while having food delivered to the Boston Concert Hall...")Would you buy WOTW DVD or Memoirs CD? ("I guess I will get both for free..., I can spend my money for the new Zimmer CD )to be continued... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trent B 337 Posted November 22, 2005 Share Posted November 22, 2005 Yes, definitely ask if he or Lucasfilm plans on releasing the complete Prequel scores like what with they did for the OT. All though I doubt he will know but hey wouldn't hurt to ask....I doubt they'll go back and rescore the Prequels ...that maybe a pipe dream...but having the Prequel scores released in a simialr manner of the OT is more predicitble mesa thinks.

Incanus 5,713 Posted November 22, 2005 Share Posted November 22, 2005 You could ask Williams how is he doing? Is he well and has he gotten time off from composing lately? How is his family doing? What book is he reading about and is it interesting? How is Munich coming up? Is it a good movie in his opinion? Would he like to release complete Indy scores? Who is his favorite composer and his greatest influence as a composer? What future projects does he have (hopefully something we do not know yet. Nothing beats a good suprise ). Thank him for all the wonderful music he has written on his career and say hello from all of us here on the MB If you want more suggestions I can come up a dosen in a minute.

Greg1138 3 Posted November 22, 2005 Share Posted November 22, 2005 A 54-year survey of 26,285 European Swallows captured and released by the Avian Demography Unit of the University of Capetown finds that the average adult European swallow has a wing length of 12.2 cm and a body mass of 20.3 grams.4 Because wing beat frequency and wing amplitude both scale with body mass,5 and flight kinematic data is available for at least 22 other bird species,6 it should be possible to estimate the frequency (f ) and amplitude (A) of the European Swallow by a comparison with similar species. With those two numbers, it will be possible to estimate airspeed (U). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greg1138 3 Posted November 22, 2005 Share Posted November 22, 2005 Although a definitive answer would of course require further measurements, published species-wide averages of wing length and body mass, initial Strouhal estimates based on those averages and cross-species comparisons, the Lund wind tunnel study of birds flying at a range of speeds, and revised Strouhal numbers based on that study all lead me to estimate that the average cruising airspeed velocity of an unladen European Swallow is roughly 11 meters per second, or 24 miles an hour.

Pieter Boelen 740 Posted November 24, 2005 Share Posted November 24, 2005 Most important question: Will you ever score a Harry Potter movie again or would you like to do so?The rest, I suppose he doesn't have much to say about. Otherwise I would also be interested in a question about complete Indiana Jones score releases, proper Star Wars prequel score release and his work on writing music for Star Wars scenes that are currently stuck with tracked music.
