@Night Huntress

I remember reading a long time ago that he thought Rey was Luke's daughter and it kind of puzzled me. I was like, ????? I would think they would tell the composer the major plot points, but I guess not?

As far as I know, the composers aren’t aware of everything ahead of their first screening of the film’s early cut. It seems that’s the case here - John Williams saw TFA and scored it accordingly, but had no idea of what would happen in TLJ or TRoS, especially that the screenwriters had a lot of creative freedom and were only required to include specific plot points/outcomes and themes. So it’s only natural that he composed the music as if Kylo was a threat - after all, he’s the main antagonist and until recently a significant part of the audience considered him the big villain too. Also, some people view Kylo’s action in TLJ as carefully schemed manipulation to lure Rey to the Supremacy as opposed to spontaneously developed genuine connection and that could’ve been Williams’s initial interpretation.

@Oscarborough-fairo wrote:It reminded me a bit of Daisy's odd reaction on the TLJ script. I thought she knew about the romance from the start, but she was shocked by it. Not to mention her other interviews in which she told that JJ wrote a completely different story for ep8...I don't like her attitude at all tbh

If I remember it right, Daisy Ridley wasn’t shocked by the romance per se (and I have no idea if she knew the endgame from the start to be honest) but by the script overall and she wondered how the audience would view Rey’s actions as they seemed controversial. And she was right - people have been talking about Rey disagreeing with Luke and fighting with him with a stick as well as her naive attempt to turn Kylo back to the light by going to the Supremacy since TLJ came out over a year ago.

@Oscarborough-fairo wrote:So John W.'s reaction feels odd to me...like this was one of the most romantic scene ever and he wanted to make the vunerable, emotional Ben Solo look like an evil rapist who wanted to hurt the "holy" "flawless" Rey...jfc
Also he said something like he didn't like the idea of Rey being "nobody"...just weird to see these differences within the Lucasfilm members

I agree with @Riri, John Williams seems protective of Rey as if she was real and his own daughter and I think this stems from his fondness towards Daisy Ridley - whenever he spoke of her, he was very sweet and also made her play some instrument when he learnt she knew the basics etc. Everybody’s point of view depends on where they’re in life - I’m a young woman so I relate to both Rey and Kylo differently than an elderly man.

He admitted he never watched a sw movie so imagine he must create the stories in his head Smile

that said I am not shocked a older man thinks a teen sneaking a boy in her room and touching him is dangerous and not exciting! I am not sure where J.J. will take reylo but I am happy that rian feels comfortable to call their connection romance now. He was more careful before.

I get JW may not be privvy to things but what does that say about the reylo/reverse anidala notes? Coincidence...? But it's seems too planned

@rey09
Unless John Williams is trolling us, I believe it’s just a coincidence, like the similarities between a part of ‘The Abduction’ from TFA soundtrack to love theme from Tchaikovsky’s ‘Romeo and Juliet’.

by californiagirl Fri 31 May 2019, 12:03 pm

I honestly wouldn't be surprised if JW is trolling a bit, like when he had asked if Daisy was going to be in Ep. 8. He knows fully well that Daisy is the lead of all three movies. Remember when Daisy claimed IX could go anywhere and they could potentially write her out, but of course she's not, and she knows that. They just have to feign ignorance or potentially spoil things for people, or at least never hear the end of it. It's all part of the job of working on such a big, secretive project.

by 12 Parsnips Fri 31 May 2019, 12:26 pm

Our dear JW is also trolling a bit if he says he hasn't watched a SW movie. You can't score a movie beat by beat that you've never seen! Although I'd believe he's never seen one in a commercial theater. Wink

GE is cross-promoting with Reylo (Avatar, Kessinger). I'd say it's coordinated marketing with VF and Rian's French interview.

also, remember this classic:

Honestly, at this point I’m just waiting for official SW social media accounts to start sharing Reylo fanart ROFL

.

One more thing regarding John Williams and the soundtrack - I have a feeling that I had the soundtrack for the last ‘Hobbit’ ahead of the film’s release and also that there was some kind of preview of John Powell’s score for Solo - is it possible TRoS soundtrack will be available before the movie premieres? When were the ones for TFA and TLJ released?

I’m so impatient right now, we’ve just had Vanity Fair’s coverage but I already crave for more! lol!

Can’t wait for further info from them, but when can we expect anything, like behind-the-scenes etc.?

by californiagirl Fri 31 May 2019, 8:20 pm

@nana7marie A BTS reel will probably be at Comic Con in July. The soundtrack comes out when the movie does, even slightly after, midnight December 20. Depends on the country you're in though, I'm on the west coast, so when new music comes out in US retailers it's only 9 PM my time.

by nana7marie Sat 01 Jun 2019, 5:07 am

@californiagirl Sight, this is such a long wait! Cry

Hopefully Vanity Fair will grace us with anything beforehand Lolilol

I’m in Poland, TRoS premieres here on 19 December, but I’m keeping fingers crossed for some pre-premiere special screening. Too bad that the soundtrack isn’t available earlier - it’d be spoilery, though, so it’s understandable.

The Art of Book is also released day and date because it's spoilery too.

There was a time they were released prior, and I think the powers that be were OK if the purchaser (and immediate circle) were spoiled, it was felt they wanted to be spoiled - the purchaser was OK with it. Now though, the information is then spread, and it's spoiled for many, so we now have entered the age of day and date release of merchandise that is definitely spoiler heavy such as soundtracks (with their obvious names for themes) and Art of books (although a lot of concept art is only inspiration and does not occur in the movie, they do present concept are that does and commentary of the movie). Very Happy

That’s super spoilery, but everybody kinda expects bendemption anyway, so they didn’t need to delete it Razz

While is cool to think that they deleted because spoilers, maybe they just posted in the wrong day? It happens all the time with the social media accounts I manage...

some people can still see it while others get Page Doesn't Exist.

Star Wars Italia still has it. in Italian.

by SW_Heroine_Journey Mon 03 Jun 2019, 9:29 pm

I wonder if the SW Country accounts that still have it are cultures that are more open-minded about redemption arcs? Or don't care if advertising is very blunt? I know there are advertising campaigns we are excited about, once it becomes super-advertising time because Disney/LF has to be blunt to sell the movie.
