This should take the word "retired" out the Williams conversation: he says he'll do Spielberg's next film, as long as he is able.

"In one sign of that future, excerpts from 'The Imperial March' (Darth Vader’s theme in 'Star Wars') and selections from 'Harry Potter' are beginning to pop up in some orchestra auditions."

At the risk of being controversial, Skeletor is using the word "crescendo" incorrectly.

Well then ....
#DisclosureDay is the weirdest movie Spielberg’s ever made (complimentary). Breathtaking compositions, David Koepp’s X-FILES-meets-The Bible script is one big high-wire act, Emily Blunt’s most accomplished performance, John Williams’ best score in years. Riveting, moving stuff.
