In A New Hope's case, if I was even more naive on the subject than I already am, I'd assumed this was the complete score. Well what does "especially important" means :-) I think the SE editions contains more music than the Anthology boxset for sure... but is it "significant"? I'm not really an expert on this subject unfortunately! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luke Skywalker 1,794 Posted June 3, 2017 Share Posted June 3, 2017 Indeed. Plus more or less perfectly chronological. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bespin 8,480 Posted June 3, 2017 Share Posted June 3, 2017 I think the "Mynock cave" cue (from ESB) is missing in the 1993 Anthology. It's an important part I think... as it was mixed with the Main Theme on the original LP. On the 1993 boxset, the Main Theme from ESB is the original recorded version without this edit.

Luke Skywalker 1,794 Posted June 3, 2017 Share Posted June 3, 2017 Alliance Assembly (ROTJ) is also missing i think. there are many many other cues: see the asterisked cues in the tracklists: Bespin 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wojo 2,453 Posted June 3, 2017 Share Posted June 3, 2017 It's strange that for as long as Jedi is on the two disc set, longer than the film actually because it contains the music from the beginning of the film between Vader's entrance and the droids' walk to Jabba's palace, the set actually lacks the extended brass solo performance of Jabba's Theme contained on the Anthology set.

Will 2,215 Posted June 27, 2017 Share Posted June 27, 2017 George Lucas got, understandably I think, very frustrated by autograph-seekers at a recent event, accusing them of trying to sell them for profit ("Why don't you just go out and get a job?"): http://www.tmz.com/2017/06/27/george-lucas-tells-autograph-seekers-get-a-job/ His brief comment on Ron Howard: "I think he'll be great." He clearly was very frustrated at being hounded by the reporter and autograph-seekers, and when asked what advice he had for Howard, he replied with a terse, "Nope. Not my job." Perhaps his tersest reply came when asked about his thoughts on Hamill getting a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame: "I think that's fine."

Will 2,215 Posted August 16, 2017 Share Posted August 16, 2017 This little SW short film was just released and I am wondering what the music in it is. While I have heard all the complete SW scores, I'm not that familiar with them (except for TFA). This bit sounds like it's probably from the OT. The reason I'm wondering is because there is a very, very small chance that this isn't existing music, and that it's in fact from TLJ. But, again, for now I will assume that it's from one of the original scores. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will 2,215 Posted August 28, 2017 Share Posted August 28, 2017 Apparently for Force Friday many Apple stores are hosting some Star Wars events throughout next weekend. One is called "Build Your Own Star Wars Trailer": Quote Explore how to create a Star Wars trailer with authentic footage from the films. You’ll discover signature Star Wars trailer-making techniques in an exclusive video from The Last Jedi director, Rian Johnson. Then you’ll create your own trailer complete with titles, transitions, sound effects, and official Star Wars music using iPad and iMovie. (https://www.apple.com/today/collection/star-wars/) Given that it's only an hour, they're obviously not going to get very in-depth or anything, but I still think it could be fun. (You guys have probably noticed that I absolutely adore Star Wars trailers.) So I think I might try to go to this Friday morning. I've tried making my own SW trailer in the past, but I didn't get very far because it's very hard work (at least for a novice at video editing!) I assume with this they'll make things really simple and that might give me a chance to actually produce a complete trailer.

Holko 9,516 Posted January 11, 2018 Share Posted January 11, 2018 There's a video on the official youtube channel talking about TLJ easter eggs and one thing caught my attention. Star Wars, the original 1977 version was selected for preservation for being aesthetically, historically and culturally significant by the american film board or whatever years ago, but Lucasfilm said they do not have the original footage, just the 97 one, so after years, it's still the one film they gave this honor to that they do not actually have. We got hints of this reasoning being bullshit when Gareth Edwards reportedly watched the new 4K scan of the original movie, and footage of Red and Gold Leader was used in Rogue One... but in TLJ, when Spoiler R2 projects Princess Leia's plea to Obi-Wan, they say they just looked at the original dailies and selected the correct angles. THEY STILL HAVE ALL THE FUCKING DAILIES??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
