Josh500 1,615 Posted December 4, 2019 Share Posted December 4, 2019 If The Complete Star Wars Prequels Boxset (done by MM, of course) was released at the end of this year, and you're allowed to get either this or the OST album of The Rise of Skywalker, which would you get? Over seven hours of well-known music in pristine condition on official releases, or just slightly over 70 minutes of brand-new, never-before-heard music. Easy enough question. But dear God, I couldn't decide for the life of me. 😂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Semantics. 1 hour and 15 to 20 minutes. For me that's slightly over 1 hour.

Edmilson 7,454 Posted December 4, 2019 Share Posted December 4, 2019 That's a very hard question... I'll be on the minority here, but I would chose TROS, because it's unheard new music by JW, while the prequels I've listened to countless bootlegs and the Ultimate Edition of TPM a lot over these years. So yeah, TROS is more of an urgent matter to me, while the prequels can wait... for a while. Josh500 and Cerebral Cortex 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's really unfortunate, and also senseless. Unlike a lot of people here, I really don't have any musical education, so detailed cue by cue analysis is how I can better understand the composer's intentions on every cue. Fortunately, some people on the internet still do that, like our colleague Incanus or Craig Lysy at Movie Music UK. Disco Stu 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

King Mark 3,631 Posted December 4, 2019 Share Posted December 4, 2019 Prequel box set should be a main objective of all JWfans so I'd pick that so many hours spent doing fan edits that aren't fully satisfying in the end, even though we have most of the music in decent qualilty . And Gigabytes of videogame rips sitting around uselessly on my hard drives. I can't wait for the day where I can delete all of that clutter. I'd even pick a pristine sessions leak of the Prequels over TROS (which we know we'll be complaining about the unreleased music 1 day after the album release) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Manakin Skywalker 4,893 Posted December 6, 2019 Share Posted December 6, 2019 If a hypothetical prequel boxset was, say, $60, and the TROS OST was $15, and I only had $60 in my bank account, I would get the prequel boxset for sure. I have been waiting for many years for a prequel expansion, and only about a year for the TROS score. Also, keep in mind that a prequel boxset would likely be a limited edition, meaning that it could potentially sell out rather quickly. The TROS album on the other hand will essentially have an infinite supply, both physical and digital. I could always just listen to the TROS album on the VEVO YouTube channel, or just download it from one of the websites that we can't talk about here. Or I could simply wait a week to have an additional $15 to buy the TROS album. The TROS album isn't going anywhere, but there's no way I'd willingly miss out on a limited edition prequel boxset.
