[@jonathandavis9885]

Absolutely; along with Star Wars, Jurassic Park, Jaws, E.T, Schindler's List, and so many more! He brought so much light and soul to the 21st century! He is of the highest order! 2nd to none.

[@TonyKimtheamusementparkfan]

John Williams just has the magic in his hands to bring film scores to life: I mean Star Wars, Superman, E.T, Indiana Jones, Harry Potter, Jurassic Park, Schindler's List, etc. Without his music, these films would be nothing. The music is just part of what makes all these films as iconic as they are ~~ I mean from Hedwig's Theme, just that first part, you already know what's to come.

[@dcta51]

@@jonathandavis9885 I just finished watching Home Alone 1 and 2 for Christmas and realized that the music ads so much to the scenes. So I looked it up and found out it was the guy who did the same music for all the films you mentioned. Take away the music and Home Alone is just a horror movie about a kid torturing two thieves 😂.

It was a shame that he did not score all of the movies... The contrast between the music between the first two movies and the rest is jarring

[@clubsnatcher]

First three unfortunately. He made a huge mistake letting the director dictate the style of number three

[@millakoda5860]

Yes, John Williams and Chris Columbus turned Harry Potter's story into my favorite Christmas fairytale, but, just as you said, contrast between the first two movies and the rest is jarring(((

[@mpaulson4285]

@@clubsnatcher While I agree that throwing away some themes of the first two was a bad idea, the third film has the best score without a doubt and I will die on that hill.

[@mpaulson4285]

@@clubsnatcher Lol I just think that HP3's score fits perfectly with that film and it feels like a good transition from "boyhood" to "teenager". There are certain cues and themes that are among my favorites from Williams. But I get why someone wouldn't enjoy the score of that film since it completely ignores a lot of the previous themes.

I saw the first movie with live orchestra today in Tokyo. Was my first time watching Harry potter. But i have listened to the soundtrack for years because i love John Williams. It was amazing today, really beautiful. John Williams' music makes everything just feel like magic. Can you imagine JP, Home Alone,ET etc without those amazing pieces of music ! it was so good today it was almost overwhelming and made you want to cry. Thanks John, you're my hero !

The soundtrack to a film is a crucial part of the storytelling. A composer’s music can evoke emotions, tell a narrative, create a mood on its own. The musical score can literally make or break a viewing experience. Probably the most prolific film symphonist of all time, John Williams has written music for over 100 motion pictures. He is particularly known for his huge orchestral pieces tailored perfectly to the score, oftentimes watching the entire oeuvre without a soundtrack to decide what is best for it. The Juilliard-trained American pianist has created some of the most iconic pieces of music in the 🌎 world, including the theme to “Star Wars”, “Jaws” and “HARRY POTTER”. His first big feature was “Sugarland Express” in 1974. From there on, he has crafted the instrumental for the “Star Wars” series, “Jurassic Park”, “E.T.”, “Superman”, “Indiana Jones”, “Home Alone”, “Schindler’s List”, “Saving Private Ryan”, and on and on and on… Mr Williams has been nominated for 52 Oscars (only a few less than Walt Disney) and has earned 25 Grammys. Director Steven Spielberg and John Towner Williams have had an utterly successful running partnership since the 1970s, and have worked together on over 30 motion pictures. A FANTASTIC DREAM TEAM‼️ In a word or three… A REVERED MAESTRO❕ 💙🎬💛

[@hanaguerin8112]

These people in the orchestra, nobody knows their names, yet they are those who formed most of our childhoods.

[@JureJerebic]

you do realise it wasn't this orchestra that recorded the score, right? and even the studio orchestra that did, they just performed it, John wrote and orchestrated it

[@real_Fabiot]

@@JureJerebic I think she was speaking generally, and she is absolutely right!

[@winxwest2964]

Generally? Their comment seemed pretty cut and dry and is indisputably false. Other than John, these people had zero impact on the movie score or your childhood.
