Star Wars |OT| I have a very good feeling about this...

But will it be as good as Rey's as far as recent themes go? Hmm?

I doubt it. I think Giacchino will do a good job but he probably hasn't had as much time as he would have liked. Plus, I thought JW did an excellent job with TFA's score. Rey's theme is brilliant.

I just remembered JW said he's going to start recording VIII's score this month.

Giacchino had some charming scores earlier but I can't say I remember much about his scores the past few years. Either I wasn't paying attention or they came off as anonymous. Seems to me memorable themes is probably what he's least known for.

Wow. As someone who really likes VII's score. I'm excited to hear this in a year.

Though I have faith in Giacchino. This sorta feels like him coming into Jurassic World. I expect some themes to reappear but the new ones should be good. His for JW was great.

I'm really partial to MMarston's spoiler title, but the OT title is up in the air.

I'll probably post it tonight, since we're already less than a week to the movie releasing in certain territories, and a week to the UK (and most regions) release date.

But the big takeaway here is we're only a week away. :D

If I may: You should make just one thread on it. The conversation just splits between both threads and they're mostly going on about the same thing anyways.

But that's just me. :p You do you, home slice.

I've actually really thought about this. You have the right idea with the 10 Cloverfield Lane and Independence Day: Resurgence OTs.

OT for spoilers, reviews thread for spoiler-tagged discussion.

Yah, especially since people will be continually be posting in the review thread even if there were both threads.

I like your approach, Toa. I think I might just do that, with a spoiler warning on the title.

those last two track names


i am now envisioning an ending so spectacular that there is no way the real film can live up to it :(
 
Enjoyed Dr. Aphra. Hopefully, this can be the Indiana Jones of the Star Wars Universe. Hopefully we will get to see her investigate rare Jedi and Sith artifacts and we learn some great history along the way.

Batteries the CRISIS!
That tracklist is surprisingly restrained as far as puns go. Giacchino must really feel a reverence about Star Wars.

Don't put too much stock in that last track title. It's the
name of the religious organization that Chirrut belongs to
so it's probably his theme.

Some Episode VIII news to mix it up a bit.

Making Star Wars believe that for some scenes at least, they used a puppet for Snoke. Apparently it's around 7-8 ft with several operators. I expect they'll end up supplementing the puppet with CGI as they did with Unkar Plutt and the costume Simon Pegg was wearing. It sounds quite ambitious but I'd prefer it to them using CGI only, especially for his scenes with other characters..

That's awesome news. I'd say we need more puppet type stuff in general since Snoke/Maz were both straight up CGI (still looked fine, just not super memorable). I'd love for a more grounded feel for the characters.

I just had the mental image of a Snoke puppet having a giant hand inside it. My imagination is great.

Interesting. I'm hoping it's a blend of practical and CG, but I really like the sound of that. I can see Rian Johnson relying more on practical, given some of the effects that were mentioned during the filming.

Im really wondering if they gonna kill of Jyn or let her survive. Everyone is thinking the former.

I think she'll survive. I think quite a few of the squad will be killed off, but I think Jyn will make it through.

Jyn and her father will go and live on a planet and be part of the greatest expanded lore that somehow doesnt intersect with the main story line.

Until episode 10

I haven't seen any clips, so that's cool if true.

He's being predicted as the break out star. Sounds like he's involved with lots of memorable scenes/introduces comic relief. But not 3PO "damsel in distress" style.

I'm thinking he's the new BB-8.
 
Do you think Katheryn Bigelow would be a good choice to direct a Star Wars movie?

lol, I threw her name around as a potential first female Star Wars director when talking with my girlfriend earlier today.

I'm sure she could definitely make a great Star Wars movie, especially with her action film chops, but would she want to? The back-to-back Hurt Locker, Zero Dark Thirty, and now a historical crime drama makes me think she's all in on "award winners" right now.
