Quintus 5,399 Posted October 15, 2007 Share Posted October 15, 2007 ...What about the sweeping erratics of the Quidditch theme? Or the the warmly heroic Chellos heard immediately after the Superman fanfare? Jurassic Park's Journey To The Island has a lovely and very typical JW strings bridge inbetween the rousing brass melody...But like I said, for sheer iconic memories Star Wars: Main Title probably comes top. Or have I overlooked a very obvious classic? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quintus 5,399 Posted October 15, 2007 Author Share Posted October 15, 2007 Bah! Michael Jackson ruined any chances Jaws may have had a long time ago.EDIT: Oops! Just realised the bit you're referring to. The bridge of course... do'h!Hmm, I never really thought about "That's a 20ft"r.... 25" as being that, but yeah I guess it is.

Quintus 5,399 Posted October 15, 2007 Author Share Posted October 15, 2007 My post makes perfect sense to me!The bridge you mentioned plays when Hooper says "That's a 20 footer" no? Well that is how I refer to it as a piece of music. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

indy4 155 Posted October 16, 2007 Share Posted October 16, 2007 Journey to the Island is better than Star Wars Main Title, but that's probably just because Star Wars has been overplayed by just about everybody.And the Banquet is good, too.

Datameister 2,041 Posted October 18, 2007 Share Posted October 18, 2007 The bridge in the Star Wars main title is my favorite part of that cue. And I do like the entire piece, despite how much it's been overplayed."Journey to the Island" is indeed amazing, both in its louder sections and in its subtler quiet sections.
