You know you are strong in the Force if you lose an Academy Award nomination to yourself.
Obi-Wan Kenobi yeah yeah yeah! You're always on the higher ground master.
Obi-Wan Kenobi Hello there
Christian The Critic GENERAL KENOBBIIIII
Your move
It's even better when it happens twice. Once with Close Encounters (to Star Wars) and again with Jurassic Park (to Schindlers List)
No one can defeat John Williams except John Williams
@@dwzenix7954 those two are absolute kings of music making
Only John Wiliams can defeat John Wiliams
Maybe Howard Shore?
Hans Zimmer?
Ennio morricone
“Without John Williams, bikes don’t really fly. Nor do brooms in Quidditch matches. Nor do men in red capes. There is no Force. Dinosaurs do not walk the earth. We do not wonder. We do not weep. We do not believe.“
-Steven Spielberg
@@buffloogi8569 You have spoken
@@ye110_jacobo5 indeed i have
@@buffloogi8569 I will add to that and say men in green tights don't fly either, little kids do not have an adventure at home by themselves
And also I may add you may also never fear to go on the water.
Nor man eating sharks
Or a explorer with a whip
Or any “I am you’re father”
Hands down the best Hollywood composer to ever live. About 60 years of dominance for this man
Lets not forget Hans Zimmer, he's great too
@@mia-luca8775 Every generation has a great composer. John Williams and Hans Zimmer are legends.
Hans Zimmer is good to and so is Ennio Morricone. But 52 Oscar noms and 5 wins. It's hard to touch that.
In his younger days, John Williams had a very close friend, an older maestro by the name of Miklos Rozsa. He gives Ben Hur a HUGE run for his money. Look up HIS soundtracks (especially Ben Hur, El Cid, Quo Vadis and Ivanhoe). The guy was literally a genius as well.
Hans Zimmer also earns equal respect ✨ Music legends
When a man can lose a nomination to himself, on another nomination, then you know he's a damn legend.
Have a reply good sir
I’m sorry, John, you didn’t win this one……you won THIS one
Is there a bigger chad moment in Hollywood than that?
John Williams, may the force be with you, always.
After all this time?
Always... 😊
We wouldn't have Star Wars without Johns legacy sound
This man is an absolute legend. Jurassic Park and E.T. are two of my favorite childhood movies ever. Both soundtracks are just stunning and I get goosebumps every single time. Pure magic. I also would like to shoutout Home Alone as well. God bless John Williams. A national treasure.
Williams, Zimmer, Horner, Giacchino and Elfman remain my top five composers of all time
Love the respect for Giacchino…so underrated!!!
You forgot Silvestri
@@Jedigrandmaster6637 And Jerry Goldsmith.
John Barry?
Agree, Williams, Zimmer, Horner, Giacchino and Joe Hisashi
At first I was like: "How is Harry Potter only number 8!?!?!" and then I watched the rest and realized they're all too awesome to be put lower than each other.
Fawkes Theme was the best theme
And the announcer screwed it up. It's "Sorcerer's Stone" not "Philosopher's Stone"
It’s Philosophers Stone here in Britain, where Harry Potter was created. God knows why it had to be changed to Sorcerer for America.
@@jacobdehaan4114 pretty sure it's the philosopher's stone in the original. They had to change it for the US for some reason.
@@ssiofrombg3161 makes sense
John Williams was always my favorite composer of all time!
Only Zimmer can even come close
Bill Conti is good to.
th-cam.com/video/sCMFfqQZfIg/w-d-xo.html
Suo gan john williamsil
Richard Canipe
Kavin Karunathilaka Nah. Second best would be Ennio Morricone in my opinion.
How many Oscars you want
Williams: *yes*
@Joseph Hernandez you dont understand its a joke idiot
He did Home Alone and Hook?!? When does this man sleep?!?
I wonder if he creates some music in his sleep
Yes, "Hook" was another Steven Spielberg movie, so...
Sometimes he copied his music from one film to another. The speeder pursuit theme from attack of the clones is rather identical to the quidditch scene from chamber of secrets
I didnt know about hook either but re watching it recently it completely makes sense
John after oscars: “crying”Johns Wife: Oh what’s wrong honey?John: I lost an OscarWife: oh no, who to?John: Myself
Nice
YepItsDeclan I’ve won but at what cost
John Williams is a great composer no joke
Why do you even have to put "no joke" at the end of that? It's just a statement of fact, after all...
The greatest
He is the best
No goof'n?
No shit
Star Wars Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back should've made this list for The Imperial March.
@@TheJuanjdelgado binary sunset
Don’t forget Duel Of The Fates
That one too should be included on their list!
I agree.
I agree, Episode V should be number one
The E.T music makes me cry every time I hear it. Absolutely beautful music that takes me back to my childhood. Takes me right back to being on the ride in Disney world, Orlando florida in 1994 and hearing E.T say thank you to us all one by one through the tannoy on the way out as the music played behind him. Fantastic.
You meant Universal Studios
💯x💯 and he’s a cardiologist as well. Because if uCan hear a to any one of these themes without feeling like he’s conducting a symphony in your heart….sorry, to tell this, but U didn’t make it. My condolences.
That's a great film...for sure
Thank God he's still doing scores.
For a second there, when I saw this list, I thought John Williams died.
Same
im pretty sure he retired. i saw Boston Pops about a year ago or so and on the program it had upcoming events and they were doing a John Williams one and im pretty sure the program said he is retired. but i could be wrong though
He's scoring Episode VIII.
Do You want Danny Elfmman score SW 8 and 9.
NO NO NO! John is the ONLY guy who can do it!
Duel of Fates could at least get an honorable mention.
Every Star Wars score adds at least three more great themes to the saga. If they included sequels in this list, Star Wars would have taken half the spots!
Kevy Nova Even though I’m not that much of a fan of the newer movies the themes are still good, but the OT and prequels still have the better themes.
@Earthworm Sally Rey's theme and kylo ren's theme. I think Rey's theme is better by miles ahead but if two themes were to be memorable in the sequels it would be those two. Also the resistance theme is pretty good.
Or maybe 1
@Earthworm Sally march of the resistance, reys theme, kylos theme, battle of crait
John Williams is such a genius, you almost need another top 10 video of his Unforgettable Scores.
You've got that right. What about 'Towering Inferno', 'Poseidon Adventure' & 'Dracula'?
Before John Williams and Steven Spielberg, there was Bernard Herman and Alfred Hitchcock. In the mid 20th century they defined what the ultimate collaboration of director and composer could be to produce such incredible movies such as vertigo and psycho. The thing about Williams and Spielberg is rather than lasting a decade like Herman and Hitchcock, this collaboration lasted almost four decades. We are just so incredibly lucky for that.
Actually it has nearly been 5 decades because they worked together on 1975's Jaws.
YES!!
The score playing on Vertigo when Kim Novak came out of the bathroom, illuminated by the green light spilling in the window, appearing like an apparition to Jimmy Stewart was sheer genius. That moment is part of the reason why Vertigo is in my top 5 all time movies. It would not have been the same without the music. The entire film is a masterpiece.
John Williams is THE man for music in movies!
His music is just magic !!
Ennio Morricone and Hans Zimmer are some of the best too. The golden trio they are.
+J0kuc exactly
You can't forget Brian Tyler.
unforgettable John Williams scores all of them
Top John Williams Scores: All of them
I can get behind this answer! :D
He is the soundtrack of my childhood . So many magical scores in some of my favorite movies. Getting old sucks, but I’m so glad I was born in 1980, cause i was here for some of the greatest scores ever written
If you never got old, you'd never feel pushed to get as much out of life as you could manage with the time you had left. Life is for living, but we forget it when we feel as if we have all the time in the universe to live it.
Yeah, hes also the soundtrack of my childhood, and Im gen-z born in 2006! His music transcends time I swear
Loved John Williams in Revenge of the Sith. I don’t feel he gets a lot of love for his music in the prequels.
His music has never been the issue with the prequels.
Across the stars is godly
@@MrRobarino his music was in all of the movies. He did duel of the fates, the fight between Anikan and obi wan.
Duel of the Fates was hands down the best music from the prequels.
It is epic
williams is the mozart and betoveen of this era
fenix loder Beethoven *
lenny lou Guzmán Solano k
Jerry Goldsmith (RIP) was far better to me but Williams is also a genius
argenis cañez His scores for the original Star Trek and Mulan are beautiful
Hey, don't exxagerate, Williams is just Beethoven of this era, but Hans Zimmer is Mozart.
Top 10 WatchMojo lists where Star Wars is #1.
All of them?
It's an earned number 1 place, what's the problem Greedo? Keep this up, Greedo, and you're gonna come to a bad end.
Jabba has put a price on your head so high every bounty hunter in the Galaxy will be looking for you.
Zac Fertig most
Man, what a career! His music is as good as the movies they were a part of! Just incredible!
A great score can help a movie be just as successful as the story!!
Schindlers list. Everytime i hear this music it sounds so sad, so beautiful, and dark, but happy, and uplifting all together.
Why did you give number 1 to just A New Hope? Why not give it to the entire saga? That way you're not missing out on tracks such as Duel of the Fates, Across the Stars, The Imperial March, Han Solo and the Princess, Rey's Theme etc.etc.
anawesomechannel because they are stupid, that's why
anawesomechannel because those themes deserve their own list ; )
cause A New Hope was the first movie released probably, so all the music was new when it was in theaters
He's not doing Rogue One
While not as iconic, both Anakin's Dark Deeds and Order 66 are also great.
John Williams is a legend. Probably the greatest films composer in history, even Hans Zimmer looks up to him, and that says something.
I was lucky enough to meet Maestro Williams on a couple occasions and each time I could hardly speak or believe it. I felt as if I was literally floating on air. Bless you sir for making our time on this planet a magical experience in those iconic movie moments.
Hello Chris how are you doing today
He must have ran into John Williams again and blinked out of existence this time.
Many of our favorite composers wouldn’t exist without this iconic composer. His music brought movies to life.
Actually I'd put Empire Strikes Back as number 1... That's when we get The Imperial March, Yoda's Theme, The Battle of Hoth, Han and Leia, The Asteroid Field
Duel of the Fates is my single favorite piece Williams has ever done, and that's a really high freaking bar. Gives me chills every time
Chris Turnbull I was about to mention that. For how bad people say the original trilogy is, the scores that John Williams brought to them are magic
Steve Cooper Totally agree
Don't forget the Throne Room!
I'm sorry sir, but you must mean the PREQUEL Trilogy.
I've never heard of anyone saying the ORIGINAL Trilogy was bad.
John Williams knows his way about music. Do one on Danny Elfman as well.
Besides the spider man theme Im sorry but I dont get why people love Elfman so much.
Dylan Antill Have you ever listened to the Batman 1989 and Batman Returns Soundtrack? That's why.
Aside from Batman and The Simpsons, he's overrated
Julien Torres I'd also like lists on Hans Zimmer and Jerry Goldsmith
Maurice Jarre also
Watchmojo: “#1, Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope”
Me* Maximizes my phone volume
(Instruments begin to burn because the music is too epic)
I did the same at Jurassic Park
John is one of the most iconic and classic well known musical arranger and director
He has done so many musical scores that has been highly recognized.
Top 10 Unforgettable John Williams Scores... in 9 Spielberg movies lol
Speilberg and Lucas owe so much to Williams ha
Garry Brown damm right
The 3 of them, its almost a bit incestuous
You are really an Einstein! I didn't even notice it!
Technically,, on this list, only 7 out of 10 are from Spielberg films since Spielberg did not make Star Wars, Superman, or Harry Potter. But still, what an amazing collaboration Spielberg and Williams have had over the years!
He lost to himself. lol
jack amiegbe only he could do that
It wasn't the only time. In 1991, Aardman lost the Oscar to Wallace & Gromit for Creature Comforts, another Aardman animation made through 1989.
Philippe Rossel At least they were both the brain child of Nick Park
Philippe Rossel alexandre desplat for Budapest hotel as well
Harry Potter and Home Alone's scores feel so warm
Star Wars is John Williams most well known and forever will be. In a couple of hundred years he will be considered the best composer of the 20th and 21st century. His music will be considered one of the greats along with Bach, Beethoven, Vivaldi and all the other classical composers.
Omg Schindler's list is probably the saddest movie I've ever seen it was so good yet so disturbingly accurate
Watching it once was enough for me. That's because it was so sadly accurate. It's just too depressing.
It is one of the most owned movies (VHS, DVD, Digital copy) but one of the least watched. It's one that I think everyone needs to view at least once.
Would you consider yourself to be a good person?
How many lies have you told, and what do you call someone who lies? Have you ever stolen something, and what do you call someone who steals? Have you ever taken God’s name in vain (very serious; in Old Testament times, the Jews wouldn’t even say the name of God for fear of blasphemy) - even ‘OMG’? One more: Jesus said whoever looks at a woman to lust after her has already committed adultery in his heart; have you ever looked with lust?
Well I’m not judging you - but if you’ve done these things then you’re a liar, thief, blasphemer and adulterer-at-heart; that’s how seriously God takes sin. He is Holy (perfectly good/righteous and separate from sin) which means that H e is perfect in justice - and if He were to judge you by the moral law (we’ve already looked at 4 commandments) would you be innocent or guilty? Heaven or Hell? The answer is hell - the wrath of God upon you for your sin. Is that concerning?
But fortunately, God’s will is not that you perish. He wants all men everywhere to be saved. So do you know what He did for us guilty sinners? In self-giving mercy, He sent His Son Jesus Christ. He lived the perfect life that we should have lived - tempted at all points and yet He NEVER sinned. Through His life, being in very nature God, He revealed God to men; but we in our hatred condemned Him to death. On that cross as Jesus suffered, He took on the sin of the world and was judged in our place; receiving God’s wrath. You and I broke God’s law, but Jesus paid the fine. God can justly forgive us.
On that cross He died, then He was buried, but 3 days later He was raised from the dead - conquering death and Hell and ushering in The Kingdom of God. He then ascended to the right hand of God the Father (where He came from) now Lord of the living and the dead. God has fixed a date when He will judge the world in righteousness. What you need to do is repent (In humility, acknowledge your sin before God and turn to a relationship with Him) and trust ALONE in Jesus Christ and His work on the cross; and God will grant you the gift of the Holy Spirit. Then be baptised.
When you place your trust in Jesus - the Lord and Saviour - these things will happen:
1) God will forgive the sins that you have committed; they were paid for by Jesus at the cross.
2) The perfect life that Jesus lived will be credited to you. He will find you holy and blameless on judgement day (and now), as Christ’s righteousness covers you.
3) You receive a place in Christ’s kingdom as an adopted child of God. God becomes your Father. Eternal life isn’t just about living forever, but a personal relationship with God Himself. That life can start now; The Father will reveal Himself to you if you seek Him.
4) God doesn’t just save you from the penalty of your sin (Hell). He can save you from the power of sin itself. Whoever practices sin is a slave of sin; but when you repent and believe the gospel [WHICH HAS BEEN DESCRIBED] the Holy Spirit comes to dwell in you and sanctify you (working in you to further abandon sin and turn to the will of God). When the end of the age comes, and eternity begins, this work will be brought to completion as you are finally freed from the presence of sin.
Jesus offers to take away your sin and to give you His righteousness; you must receive it by faith. Choose this day if you will align with the world, or with Jesus and His kingdom - only His is eternal.
ROMANS 10:9 - If you confess with your mouth Jesus as Lord and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved
I for one found it such a profoundly moving experience that I actually blocked John Williams' score from memory for years, it was just too painful to bear. To this day I start to tear up whenever I hear it.
After this you gotta do,
1. Alan Silvestri
2. Danny Elfman
3. Hans Zimmer
4. Ennio Morricone
And lest not we forget Jerry Goldsmith -- another legend.
(It's also interesting that most friends look at me like I have three heads when I tell them my favorite music is film scores but where else can one find such expressive music.)
Thanks. I would Love to see the Danny Elfman one
John Frizzell
James Horner.
Best Modern Composer Ever! AND a fellow Long Islander! (John Williams hails from Floral Park, NY. I'm from Bethpage but grew up in Malverne)
When you're so good you lose the Oscar to yourself
Hello beautiful how are you doing
heh, Speilberg+Williams=BLOCKBUSTER!!!!!!!
hell, even put the most badass and popular theme ever as #!
How about ILM (Industrial Light and Magic)
so Harry Potter
Nolan+zimmer=Masterpiece
Jurassic Park is exactly that.
IMHO, the greatest movie music composer of all time. His soundtrack catalog destroys everyone else. IMPERIAL MARCH is my #1 followed by SUPERMAN THEME.
Joe S whats about braveheart from James horner
2. For me,morricone is one and he destroys the rest
It is amazing how all these movies are my favourite and I didn't even realize they had same composer.... could that be the reason?
My gosh this man has done the music to so many wonderful, amazing, iconic, beautiful, tragic, emotional, haunting, gorgeous and just down right good movies.
John Williams + Stephen Spielberg = Perfect Combinations for Very Good Movies.
*Steven
wrong name one movie which is good lmfao

What about for TV? Ramin Djawadi would probably be on your top 10.
John frizzell (Texas Chainsaw 3D, Ghost ship, Alien Resurrection, I Still Know What You Did Last Summer)
When John Williams dies, we will all loose part of our hearts
I think the Harry Potter scores are the most beautiful and memorable of all time and I love them so much. Harry Potter should have been higher on that list!
i agree with this
Fawkes Theme
@@DonCarlosSantana yeah that's my favourite too☺️
I disagree
I'm getting a haircut today and I might go to Chick Fil A afterwards
Sounds like a great day.
Grant Perry ice cube is proud

31. Lost in Space
Superman 4 films must be higher
Being born in the 80s, this man has shaped a huge part of my childhood and beyond with his amazing scores. I fondly remember seeing Jurassic Park in the theatre, just pure magic.
"I used me to defeat me" - John Williams aka Thanos
@@tylergarrett7572
“It always will be, I am........inevitable!”
Nolan/Zimmer and Speilberg/Williams are the best duos of Hollywood .. IMO.
Like if you agree??
Yes, and in that order. 3rd is Tarantino and obscure music
4th Danny and Tim
How about James Cameron and the late great James Horner. RIP
John pawel/Zimmer
100%
I haven't watched it yet but I swear to God if Star Wars isn't number one I'm actually going to sue you.
Gaming-Is-Fun You never watched Star Wars?
I believe he was referring to the video that you are commenting on.
Just posting this in case you weren't joking.
John Cornell Yeah, it was iconic when Dvorak composed it, too.
John Cornell it's more like the first ten notes, but whatever. I'm not trying to discount Williams as a composer, but the man did take a lot of inspiration from his predecessors. Also, you literally made a baseless assertion that Jaws was the most iconic movie theme ever. Hell, its more of a motif! I would prefer some substance to your argument.
John Cornell I didn't need to listen to it again when I could just look at the sheet music. The score for Jaws begins with a two note motif oscillating between an E and F. This goes on for sixteen measures before additional thematic material is introduced. In Dvorak's symphony 9, mvmt. 4, there is a similar oscillation between a B and C. While the key is different, the half step oscillation remains. It is only dedicated for three measures, but the harmonic rhythm is such that additional thematic material is not added until the tenth measure of the movement. The key is in the harmonic rhythm, and the half stem motif. The pacing is different in Jaws because the score is more expansive, but Dvorak's influence is quite clear. You're right, it bloody well isn't ten notes, it is far more.
Star Wars also boosted John William's popularity since it was a unique score for the 70's
The Superman the movie score still gives me chills and puts me in a great mood.
I listen to it to give me a boost when I know I've got something hard to do, or when I'm exhausted and need a pick me up.
John Williams is king of music scores
John Williams' best scores I feel have to be broken down by category:
Star Wars Franchise is his best overall score, Jaws is his best atmospheric score, Jurassic Park is his best majestic score, Schindler's List is his most emotional and from the best film he has scored for, and Indiana Jones Franchise is his most fun score. All can be seen as his best from different perspectives. My personal favorite is Jurassic Park
Hedwig’s theme always gives me chills ❤️
HE RECIEVED MORE THAN 50 NOMINATIONS AT ACADEMY AWARDS. JOHN WILLIAMS IS TRULY A LEGEND ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Received not recieved
Each instrument gives an different feeling... That's the magic.

Incredible when you see his whole body of work. The true 🐐when it comes to movie scores
How is Schindler’s list not number 1? It is one of the most beautiful pieces of music I have ever heard and I will break down into tears almost immediately. But honestly anything Williams does is number 1
Cause fuck yea Darth Vader
Probably because, while you're right about the emotions the Schindler's List score evokes in its listeners, Star Wars' music transcended its medium and became an instant, timeless classic.
Was their any doubt Star Wars would be number one.
PrankCaster John Williams scores is Star Wars.
Leo Lim. Yeah, you take him out and it's just not nearly as good.
John Cornell
I find your lack of faith disturbing.....
PrankCaster the Star Wars theme is Johnny Williams magnum opus
All the John Williams scores are the best! 🎶📽🍿👍
Jaws gets my number 1 pick and I’ll tell you why; the musical score of Jaws is so incredible, and it plays such a big part in the movie. The music starts slow, and it increases in intensity as you can suspect that the shark is nearby or approaching. The eerie music mixed with the camerawork is tension and suspense at its finest. Jaws is as one of the very few movies where the music alone can scare the audience, and no other movie really does that quite as well
They should rename the Oscar to the "John Williams Award"
Press Like if you Agree
I Hate Redditors he should just straight said most of his music was inspired from classics.
@@IkilledColMustard Everything was inspired by classical music man. Is like saying the bible got its inspiration from Jesus
You should do lists like this for Hans Zimmer and other famous movie composers.
Do a top 10 for Hans zimmer and Howard shore
Peter Dacey indeed and Hans zimmers he's a pirate theme or Maelstrom is amazing
To me Howard Shore was kind of a one hit wonder. His scores overall are absolutely amazing! But they all don't have iconic themes. Lord of the Rings however was when Shore was like,"Screw it I wanna be famous".
I’m 35 years old and these were the sounds of my entire childhood. Every score is recognizable. John Williams doesn’t miss EVER.
i almost started crying when i hear the Jurrasic park theme
Jurassic Park is my favorite John William's theme, in fact it's also my favorite movie theme of all time.
BEST MOVIE EVER. Of course I've been into dinosaurs since 1979 so I may be a bit biased on that.
Why #3 why
John Williams is the best!!
Hedwig's Theme should have been higher on the list. My favorites are Hedwig's Theme, Star Wars, Jurassic Park and Raider's of the Lost Ark. But all were great though.
John Williams is my favourite composer his music is amazing I love listening to him on classic FM his music choice is really good I love Harry potter and one of the things I love about it is the music.
John Williams you rock
So much music from Star Wars is awesome. It seems like even the scores of the Star Wars Pre-quell just get more deep and beautiful.
Duel of the Fates from Phantom Menace is one of the best bits of music ever created.
John Williams is the BEST when it comes to composing music for movie soundtracks!
51 Academy Award nominations is proof to that. You can't get that many nominations if your work sucks.
Hello beautiful how are you doing
For me, jurassic park is the best soundtrack of all time
John Williams is the master when it comes to movie scores. Such a talented composer.
The score for 'The Empire Strikes Back' (Star Wars Episode V) is just as good, if not better, than half of this list.
This man has been scoring my entire life and I thank him for that :')
*sigh * John Williams, for all intents and purposes you scored my childhood....
When you hear a catchy hypnotizing soundtrack in a movie. You know its Mr. Williams.
Hard to say how the top 3 should be! “They are all so qualified!” But without doubt the best top 3 score!! Thanks Mr John Willams. You are a living legend!
I really feel that Superman's theme should have been higher on this list, it is literally one of the best movie themes in the history of cinema! It should have been #2
Fictional Subliminals Op never stated they liked Superman just the score, stop trying to turn this into a hateful arguementr
Iconic
I love the "A New Hope" music, but "Superman" should've been FIRST!!
It should have been no 1
What ?? Definitly no, it's a good song but not the best
John Williams is the Beethoven of the film industry music.
New favorites are "Rey's theme" and "Jedi Steps".
Agreed, Rey's Theme is wonderful.
More like Wagner.
"Rey's Theme" is right up there with his best work. It shows that he's still capable of greatness!
Hello beautiful how are you doing
Love this man with my whole heart. Been a fan for years and he just doesn’t get the credit he deserved
I wish he could live forever and keep creating masterpieces

Easily the greatest composer of our time next to John Williams.
#1 should've been all of Star Wars IMO, because a lot of memorable tracks came in later films; Imperial March, Duel of the Fates, Battle of the Heroes, Across the Stars...
You didn't mention the fact that A New Hope's soundtrack was added to the National Recording Registry for its cultural, historic, or aesthetic significance.

Hans Zimmer: I'm the best composer
John Williams: Hold my beer
I Love JW but Hans Zimmer >>>>
Star Wars always rules the Film Score universe... And I love it!
John Williams is truly the master.
I feel fortunate to be living in the same time as this great man. We are LIVING in the SAME PERIOD as this guy who is literally making composing a music score a high art form. We're talking the same category as Beethoven or Mozart. He literally outdoes himself with each new creation. Few if NO music score can move me emotionally. Case in point being when the strings start at the opening of "Jurassic Park". Being a musician myself(trombone in h.s., college and now a community band, Lake Charles Community Band. We're here on TH-cam). I have only a glimpse into how his mind may work. Only a GLIMPSE! Incredible.
