John Crichton 4 Posted January 9, 2009 Share Posted January 9, 2009 Well, it's appropriate that it should come to this. These two themes were neck and neck for the #1 seed during the whole nominations process, but it was the Force theme was was narrowly ahead until just the last few ballots. And they were miles ahead of all the others, at least until the Imperial March had a bit of a surge the last few days. So, for all the marbles: vs. As before, 3 days to start, more if it's close. The official definition of close will be a 3 vote or less difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nick Parker 3,040 Posted January 9, 2009 Share Posted January 9, 2009 I have abstained from voting in the other polls ( out of indecisiveness), but I shall remain silent no more. "The Raiders March". I always loved its B Theme more than the A Theme, though.EDIT: If people keep posting these images, this Thread will take two hours to load!

Datameister 2,073 Posted January 9, 2009 Share Posted January 9, 2009 That's the kind of psychotic, twisted, lose-lose situation that should be reserved for superhero movies. Bah, this is gonna be tough. In the past, the Force theme would have gotten a knee-jerk vote from me, but I've been on such an Indy kick that it's extremely difficult to choose. Meditate on this, I will. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Datameister 2,073 Posted January 9, 2009 Share Posted January 9, 2009 I suppose, from an objective standpoint, I might have to vote for the Raiders March, simply because it comprises a lot more material than the eight-measure Force theme, although the latter does have its dubious, not-that-spectacular, almost-never-used B theme. But the Force theme is just so perfect... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
