He said this film marks 50 years of Williams, “reshaping my stories through his music.” “John knew my parents well”, Spielberg said, “and loved introducing them to the orchestra during our scoring session which made my Dad so proud and left my Mom beaming.” “He wrote this score as a gift to them and, when he first previewed it for me on his Steinway, I knew he had made this his most personal gift to me as well.” “Thank you, Maestro,” Spielberg added.

I did not like what I heard. It may be harmless stuff, but boring and bland. It isn't anything special at all. There isn't a single track from this score that I would like to hear again. I actually think that Thomas Newman's solid, but rather unremarkable score to Bridge of Spies is the best Steven Spielberg score in many years. Here's hoping that Spielberg will go with Newman when he moves on from John Williams. That would definitely interest me. The Fabelmans is not one of my favorite scores of the year, and it will probably end up getting a lot of unwarranted praise. But then, i'm not a JW fan. I don't think that this score will convert Williams haters such as myself. Probably the only small positive thing that I can say about this score is that it is at least a more low-key score, unlike the typical JW bombast that he probably wrote more of for Indiana Jones 5. ![John Williams' THE FABELMANS (2022) (55) John Williams' THE FABELMANS (2022) (55)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==)

I don't disagree with you about some of his work post-2000 - some good stuff, but most of it isn't for me. It's the "hate" comment that baffles me and the bombast, because he's written some amazing scores since he began - perhaps you haven't heard them all? The Reivers is wonderful, Images is very interesting, The Accidental Tourist is almost my favorite score of his, monothematic as it is. Jaws is a masterful score, IMO. I'm trying to steer clear of the "bombast" you speak of - Close Encounters is also a brilliant score, IMO. ![John Williams' THE FABELMANS (2022) (101) John Williams' THE FABELMANS (2022) (101)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==)

I'm trying to steer clear of the "bombast" you speak of - Close Encounters is also a brilliant score, IMO. I have heard most of JW's scores. I quite like parts of Close Encounters of the Third Kind because it was something more progressive and daring than almost all of his other scores (I don't like any of the other scores that you mention even if some of them may be more interesting than the others): it might actually be my second favorite JW score after Nixon. Still, as much as I like parts of Close Encounters, I find much of the CE3K score to be somewhat of a chore to sit through. Nixon for me is the JW album that I like the most overall. Parts of Nixon may be bombastic, but it isn't the usual bombast that we hear in many of his blockbuster scores, it was more progressive than his usual shtick. It was generally more subdued and also refreshingly unsentimental. The use of electronics in that score was also something different from what we usually hear from JW. As I wrote before, I find Nixon to be his most consistent and strongest album. ![John Williams' THE FABELMANS (2022) (117) John Williams' THE FABELMANS (2022) (117)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==)
