Padme

Across the Stars, for me

Personally I think John Williams should win an Oscar every time he's nominated So yes, I'd love to see him win again. But I get the feeling they simply want to let mediocre composers out there have a shot....

These days, certainly. I'm just curious where the new generation of great composers are? Same with directors for that matter. Most great directors around are 40+..... Where are the new inspiring ones who are going to shape the way of film making like Spielberg, Scorsese etc did in their youth? Hell even Tarantino who was considered a wonderkins when Reservoir Dogs came out is now getting past his sell by date

Yes but the other Padme has more mileage, so hats off to her

The Mission - Ennio Morriconne

Well I've been here since 2005 in theory, just my presence is scarce, I'm afraid..... *hangs head in shame*

Only 2 women? Jeez, wtf.....

Thankfully I look like neither of them as my profile pic shows. Though Susan Boyle lives not far from here........ Not my cup of tea frankly.....

Actually I'm a Scot, married to a Belgian

I'm a secretive Padme, hence join date and post count

Who made this synthesized version? And how did they get a hold of the music?

Yeah I've noticed about 2-3 months as well for John Williams.

Listening to Munich atm

I wouldn't care how much either, been waiting for these for too long.

I hope this is true, would be about time

To each their own, I guess lol I personally love every Star Wars film, and I sincerely hope Lucas updates them again, I don't care if he wants to add new scenes. CGI etc, I'm all for it. In the end, Star Wars is his creation, its up to him to do what he wants with them, as I would if I were him. And the argument about how he is just doing it for the money, try not to look at it so black and white. Of course he has to do it for money, he's not an idiot, but as someone already rightly said, he puts it back into ILM, even if he didn't, who cares? People are buying his stuff so why shouldn't he profit? He's not running a charity. Like I said, Star Wars is for kids, and kids love it, whether its the Clone Wars TV show, games, movies, doesn't matter. You don't have to watch it if you don't want to, but instead have the maturity and understand the target audience, which isn't yourself. So you either appreciate that and enjoy it for what it is, fun adventures and fables for children, or you move on.

I love the celebration in ROTJ, vast improvement. I love all the changes Lucas made, even my brothers who were kids when the originals were released love the changes, cause I get a lot of 'you weren't there for the originals', which okay I wasn't, but my brothers were and like me, they like the changes and the prequels. Was only once I started going online I released some didn't agree, most I've met in the real world either don't care either way or loved the Special editions, prequels etc. But in the end, I think these arguments are short lived anyway, I watch my nephews, who also love Star Wars, and they love all the films. Originals and Prequels, those terms mean nothing to them. It's Star Wars, and its for kids, and kids still love it. That's important.

Agree, can't stand Lucas bashing. I actually like the changes he made, and a great many people I know feel the same. In the end its the minority of arguments that tend to shout the loudest...

lol I also thought Luke was rather 'Palpalicious' in the scene, for a second I thought what the hell is Palps listening in for?! Oh it's Luke. Palps: Oi Vader, who you talking to?! Vader: What?! Me?! Who?! Nothing! Palps: .... Vader: ..... *coughs nervously*

I never watch the originals, I like the revamps My hubby bought the original dvds but I've never once watched them. Either way, Star Wars blu-rays? I'll be getting them! These are the blu-rays I've been waiting for.

Ah thanks well hopefully they'll get the color timing right this time with the Blu-Ray set and the audio isn't mucked around with like it was on the DVD set. I also hope next year that we'll get the real complete intended edition of the Prequel scores and HOPEFULLY remastered versions of the Original Trilogy scores to coincide with this release. Oh I hope so too.... I still can't believe they didn't release the Ultimate editions for Episodes II and then III, I can remember back in 2002 discussing with my brothers what the cover might look like :S Cause we just assumed it would be released, what hopeless chumps we were lol But hopefully someone somewhere will give them a good smack and make them release complete and cleaned up editions!

I'd heard a rumour it would be released October next year, and I just checked the official site and that could be about right http://www.starwars.com/themovies/saga/mebd/bluray/index.html

Cool. I first heard about the scene years ago due to the soundtrack, nice to actually see it.

Listening to Jurassic Park as we speak
