Hlao-roo 389 Posted September 19, 2014 Share Posted September 19, 2014 Hmm, I'd vote for The Reivers if Star Wars weren't there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay 37,250 Posted September 19, 2014 Share Posted September 19, 2014 I really really love all these scores so, so much (apart from Rivers which I've never heard).... And even though it's the obvious choice I do have to pick ESB as my favorite out my these favorites. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 10,265 Posted September 19, 2014 Author Share Posted September 19, 2014 Looking at it, it's actually a really tough couple of choices!Either SW, JP or Harry PotterAnnnnd . . . we're expecting a different result than Joey's two polls gave us?No, but we need one every few years, like elections.Nothing really changes, but it's the give the populace the perception of involvement....

Thor 7,452 Posted September 19, 2014 Share Posted September 19, 2014 Easiest poll ever, and I'm fortunate that my alltime favourite soundtrack is on the list. JURASSIC PARK for the win! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
filmmusic 1,822 Posted September 19, 2014 Share Posted September 19, 2014 It's not really our favourite, is it?we're voting for the most favourite among those that were voted as favourite by most members.There is a big difference.Eg. my most favourite Williams score which is E.T., isn't here.Anyway, I voted for ESB.

Gnome in Plaid 219 Posted September 19, 2014 Share Posted September 19, 2014 Damn... nothing I voted for made the final poll. Out of these, though, I'd have to say ESB, although my personal favorite of his would be a toss-up between Jane Eyre and Revenge of the Sith.

Marian Schedenig 8,153 Posted September 20, 2014 Share Posted September 20, 2014 I voted for ESB. It seemed the natural choice. Now I wonder if it really is. Star Wars and Jurassic Park seem equally valid choices... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gruesome Son of a Bitch 6,488 Posted September 20, 2014 Share Posted September 20, 2014 Star Wars is CLEARLY the best of these scores. Look, I love Empire too, but Star Wars is ******* Star Wars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Balahkay 627 Posted September 20, 2014 Share Posted September 20, 2014 While Star Wars is obviously an amazing score that set the bar extremely high not only for himself but other composers, I have to give it to ESB since Williams somehow managed to create an arguably better score than Star Wars.

Bilbo 3,709 Posted September 20, 2014 Share Posted September 20, 2014 Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope ( or just Star Wars is you have a chip on your shoulder). I think it's a better score and film than Empire. My personally favourite would be either Phantom Menace or Revenge of the Sith. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gruesome Son of a Bitch 6,488 Posted September 20, 2014 Share Posted September 20, 2014 I would vote Empire Strikes Back if it was the Gerhardt version.

Gruesome Son of a Bitch 6,488 Posted September 20, 2014 Share Posted September 20, 2014 Does it count? The "Episode V" subtitle was never used in any of the film's paraphernalia.

#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 10,265 Posted September 20, 2014 Author Share Posted September 20, 2014 Wait...the title that's actually seen printed in the film itself...doesnt count?Is that what you are now suggesting?So I guess Edge Of Tomorrow really should be called Live, Die, Repeat from now on.....

Ricard 2,242 Posted September 20, 2014 Share Posted September 20, 2014 Sure Steef, I saw that title crawl at London's Leicester Square 34 years ago. It says it's the fifth episode of the Star Wars saga. But the title of the film, the album, the score... was The Empire Strikes Back. That was the official title.You will not find any physical, pre-internet document showing the film's official title as Star Wars: Episode V - The Empire Strikes Back.

Wojo 2,453 Posted September 20, 2014 Share Posted September 20, 2014 And then the next line says "It is a dark time for the Rebellion." is that part of the title too?
