Was really excited to hear a new recording of the Main Titles Fanfare! I never really liked the opening TFA's version. Just curious, does anyone know why this different version of the Main Title from a TLJ scoring session (video below) was not was not used in the final version of TLJ?
That last Reddit link is from a subreddit that represents one of the most toxic portions of the Star Wars fanbase. I would take it (especially the part about Disney trying to sabotage Abrams) with a grain of salt. It seems these #ReleaseTheJJCut (or in DC's was #ReleaseTheSnyderCut) campaigns are simply a sign of a modern mindset that everything has to be exactly how you want. No longer can a clumsy movie be made, there has to be a huge conspiracy behind it. The modern mindset doesn't allow these people to just take what we got but rather hold on to false hope that somewhere out there exists a "better" version of the film that was stolen from us. Its all really toxic tbh.
