Why does Disney Star Wars scores sound so plasticy?

>>85968065
kids toys are plastic

>>85968065
It's the sound of John Williams phoning it in.

because they are so hard trying to resemble the original they dont innovate at all.

>>85968245
>what is reading comprehension

Because John Williams is 85 years old.

They record it in a studio instead of an orchestra hall so there's no reverberation at all.

TFAs score sounded like they recorded it in a broom closet, what an embarrassment

>>85968593
plus tfa wasn't played by the lso but by some nobodies in l.a.

what a fuckup

>>85968065

Because John Williams is 88 years old and he doesn't have the fire in him anymore.

His score for Kingdom of the Crystal Skull has some really good tracks. His age has nothing to do with it.

I am so annoyed this song wasn't on the official soundtrack, neither the warehouse escape which was great how despite him re-using the Indiana Jones main theme, he somehow managed to make it sound interesting and not just a re release same old like TFA sounds like when it plays the Han and Leia music.

>Kingdom of the Crystal Skull
That was like 10 years ago

>>85968825
9 to be exact and still, if a 77 year old man composed some good tracks, that doesn't mean he can't 10 years later.

I liked the Jedi Steps and there was 1 tune during the Finn and Poe escape that sounded good but it only lasted for 10 seconds and I never heard it again... Sucks

>That AoTC romantic theme
For a composer to get so inspired from badly written dialogue to make such beautiful music... really makes you think

>>85968870
At that age it's easy to assume he's lost it, although it could be he was given little instruction from the director

I would have said the same for Morricone who is a similar age but Hateful 8's score was great.

George was very hands on with Williams where as JJ the autistic kike just let him do his thing.
Clearly we know now which method works better

>>85969143
How do you think will based Rian do it?

JJ Abrams is a huge hack. ANd they didn't use Joihn WIlliams for Rogue One

>ywn hear a Star Wars score by the guy that scored Elysium

because John Williams needs to retire. His things don't work in 2017.

>>85969143
But this is directing 100%. The director guides everyone and tells them how they should act, including the composer. Guiding him on what he wants to hear.

A good director will spend time with everyone and make sure he gets the film he wants. Not just leave the composer and actors alone and let them do their own thing.

>>85969066
Some people have theorized that the AotC love theme is the Luke theme and Leia theme meshed together. I can hear it.
