King Mark 3,624 Posted January 23, 2015 Author Share Posted January 23, 2015 I don't really like the JP3 adaptions that much, but the above one isn't bad (forgot about it)That's the little Jeep motif that Williams didn't even expand upon in his own score.And I remember it's the first bit we ever heard during a Superbowl commercial Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll have to listen to it again to get an idea of the cue you're talking about.btw, does anyone else besides me have a positive reaction to Kevin Kiner's treatment of the Star Wars cues in Clone Wars and most recently Rebels?

Incanus 5,713 Posted January 23, 2015 Share Posted January 23, 2015 There is an old Vulcan proverb. Only Williams could score Star Wars.That is almost as sacrilegious, using ST and SW in two consecutive sentences. Oh and strictly speaking Night Skies isn't actually adapting a cue. It is taking existing themes and using them in a new original way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
