    ID4 is indeed a good comparison.
    That one similarly has barely a dull moment throughout its entire runtime.
     
    I can understand it being a bit much...
    But you can always listen in parts.
    And when it's all SUCH QUALITY...?
     
    Both do have some lovely quieter material.
    "Discovery of the Treasure" is gorgeous!

    There's definitely more than 35 minutes of goodness in there.
    I'd say it's pretty much never a dull moment all the way through.

    Yes.  As MP3 files on CD-ROM.  Comes with the rest of the game, too!

    Fun variations on the March in there too!

    In all my searching, I've never found anything quite like it.
    Sure, it's inspired on the swashbucklers of old.
    But HOLY MOLY, does it run with that theme!
    Main Title, Carriage Chase, complete Battle and End Credits alone are SUCH stunners!
    And that's just the tip of the iceberg.
     
    Pretty much!
    It does everything exactly right.
    Love how it doesn't even feature the choir at all.
    It really doesn't need it.

    It has to contain a cue called "Something and End Titles" or "Something and Finale" and  "Scherzo for a Vehicle and Orchestra".

    I always thought that Clint Bajakian's work on Indiana Jones and the Emperor's Tomb (video game) totally captured the "feel" of Williams' Indy scores, particularly with regards to the brass writing:

    Hands down one of the greatest scores ever written and I'm so happy that it's back in stock for all of those who missed out on LLL brilliant presentation of the score!

    If you don't like the first track you don't have a pulse you aren't going to like any of it.

    Pieter Boelen got a reaction from Pellaeon in Rey Skywalker Star Wars movie (Sharmeen Obaid-Chinoy directing, Stephen Knight writing)   
    Alien and Terminator had strong female characters, I thought.
    CutThroat Island even flipped the gender dynamics all the way, even if it unfortunately wasn't well received.
    And I'm watching Stargate SG-1 again lately, where I'd say the relation between the male and female protagonists is perfectly okay.
    They even toned it down from the very first episode, where they originally really pointed it out.

    The Rise of Skywalker might be the worst blockbuster movie ever made. At least it is the worst, that I have ever seen. And I have watched a lot. I have hardly any words for that pile of shit of a story and movie.

    I like Rey fine enough.
    The background novels even explain some things on why she's so good at things at the start.
    In a novel written even before TFA was released.
    So it's not like it's retconning anything.
     
    Shame she was turned into a Palps though.
    I tend to just ignore TRoS in my opinions.
    That one is...
    NOT good!

    I like to see releases like this that give newcomers another chance.  Like they did with Cliffhanger. 

    Fixed.
