Reply To: Disclosure Day (John Williams)
Didn’t take it as critism, too.
I’m sure I’m going to review this down the line (as Alan says, any reviews posted in the next two weeks will probably just be gobbled up by all the chatter; difficult to stand out), and when I do, it’s absolutely crucial to contextualize it with previous scores it alludes to, how it fits in with his development over the last couple of decades and so on, before one touches on its idiosyncratic properties.
Yes, don’t forget it’s good for internet/social media to ride/hook on current trends of interest! You can post it later but it will likey get less exposure from the algorithms. It will surely work in the so called long tail but that it will in any case.
My guess? It will be a bit like A.I., WAR OF THE WORLDS, MINORITY REPORT…largely textural or rhythmical, or based around cells, but then with a gorgeous, HUMAN theme at its core (like those scores had “Monica’s Theme”, “Ray and Rachel” and “Sean’s Theme”). “Listen” will probably be this score’s “heart theme”.
Yeah, I expect that “modern” Williams to be present as well which I do like a lot.
