John Williams is Mozart for our times...

66.183.237.21

Raiders --- I dunno they did get their faces melted off and that has to count in the good column times two. And Marion did shoot a truck full of them, and Indy shot a few and ran over a few and had them flying off cliffs and even managed to poison their Nazi monkey - okay the Nazi's did that by accident.

And let's not forget the slam to to French for rolling over to Germany in the characer of Belloq.

and the music...yes I can actually hum the theme to Raiders and still find myself doing it from time to time after all these years. His scores fit the films and are made for the films.

But then Mozart was considered a talentless bum by the critics of his era too just like Shakespeare as an enetertainer. The Spielberg/Williams combo when it is realized how well the films do after 25-50 years might actually get some respect. Of course looking at the sale of the nearly 30 year old Jaws compaired to ANY other DVD sale from that period might clue some people in...but I guess not. Interestingly the other big one will be Star Wars - ohh I see one part of that combo.
