Don't hire the imitator, go to the source. Giacchino will most likely get his chance with the spinoffs. I'm secretly hoping Disney brings back Daft Punk for one of the spinoffs if it's appropriate.

Williams was as important an element to the 'Star Wars' saga as the script or the actors, and Williams should choose whether he wants to work with the new filmmakers, not the other way around.
