    Say you would let Zbigniew Preisner write a typical, melancholic score for a teen comedy, just for the fun of annoying all the teenagers watching it.

    Or allow Eleni Karaindrou to write incredibly depressing music for the newest Heineken commercial!

    Hmmm, John Williams for High School Musical/High School Musical 2!
  5. Hans Zimmer for Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull.

    Honestly, I really, really wonder what he would have done with it.
  6. Elliot Goldenthal for American Pie biggrin

    I'll state the blindingly obvious since you posted it in this thread: He wouldn't have been able to have pulled it off, not when Williams has set the tone of the previous three films like he had. Zimmer's style, no matter how hard he tried, wouldn't have been right. It would still of course be interesting to hear what he would have produced.

    That's what I was thinking, too. Zimmer is much more of a rocky score composer, using instruments Williams doesn't, hasn't, and likely won't use. While I do like Zimmer's style and music very much, it's just not the same. However, if John Williams had randomly died or something, I wonder what Spielburg would have done... From what I've heard, he does like Zimmer's music quite a bit...

    The idea behind it is that the movie seems to be about change. Change in generations, change due to getting old, change of the world in general. We get the nuclear testing scene, we get massive CGI sequences, there are so many new things in there that I can see a change of style in the music as well (no need to point out that Williams has done some things different - that´s acknowledged); it´s just that I would be interested in hearing an Indy score by Zimmer.
