I think he will be back. Actually any of them would be grand. BUt the music is the uilding blcok of a movie. A scary movie with nature music is not scary. Music sets the tone and mood.

The first two movie soundtracks are great and kind of similar to one another. Then Williams gave a different theme to Prisoner, still a great soundtrack. The last two movie soundtracks where ok. I think they where just ok because of the lack of John Williams talent. I really hope they give him the last movie and we are treated to one last great soundtrack.

I would love to John Williams to return for the final film! I do love his pieces so much. It would be great if he could return and Chris Columbus also. I think that they would do a wonderful job to finish out the series as the did to start it.

OHHHH NOOOOO NOT AGAIN!!! MOVE ON PLEASE!!!

Am I the only person who thinks that change is good? I like what Patrick Doyle and Nicholas Hooper brought musically to the Harry Potter series. I am personally tired of John Williams. All of his stuff sounds the same.

This seems like the same lame ongoing discussion to dig Richard Harris and make his body play Dumbledore. Sorry for my rant but can't we use some imagination for a change?

Well I personally would love it if John Williams scored this film. I personally thought the last film was lacking.

That would be cool if John Williams comes back for the last movie. His scores were phenomenal in the first few and you can't really go wrong with a John Williams musical score. I did really enjoy the music from OotP though. Who did that score again?

Okay, first things first - he gave a lecture to his fans? That's just mean. Well, maybe it was a lecture in music or something. Well, duh, of course it was.

I really want him to come back for Deathly Hallows. I mean, without doubt, Nicholas Hooper is a great composer - the soundtrack for OotP was great, but it was too different from what I was used to thinking of when I thought of Harry Potter.

I really hope he comes back!
