crocodile 7,978 Posted November 21, 2019 Share Posted November 21, 2019 Why is that an issue all of a sudden? Each SW score was tweaked/tracked/edited somehow after recording sessions have finished. In fact I doubt there is any score ever recorded that wasn't altered in one way or another. This is absolutely nothing new.

Karol Notice how I only quoted the part that mentiones removed music, not the tracking! Unpopular Opinion: JW had no clue what he was doing with some of the cues in Empire (or probably even Kersh and the rest were just figuring the precise tone out gradually), and I feel Empire, the film, benefits immensely from not having the kinda goofy Hangar march, Imperial Probe, the Dumb Yoda music, the opening of Mynock Cave, the original Snowspeeder Search, maybe even the preceding cue where Han searches for Luke and everyone's tense in the hangar, that horridly unfitting big Yoda statement in the second part of the freezing chamber duel partly under Vader's intimidation, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edmilson 7,370 Posted November 21, 2019 Share Posted November 21, 2019 Interesting. Here in Brazil movies used to premiere on Friday like on the US (except for the very ocasional Wednesday openers), but since March 2014 they were moved to Thursdays, with the first screenings happening at midnight from Wednesdays to Thursdays. My ticket for TROS is already bought, I'm going to watch it with some friends at the first day, Thursday Dec 19. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
