I highly doubt it would be 9. It's likely 2 for each film and maybe a 7th disc with some outtakes/alternates etc. If we are lucky.

Sounds about right: all three ST films would definitely need 3 discs to fit all the recorded material (174, 184, and 216 minutes). RotJ and TPM might be questionable, especially if all the missing RotJ material were to turn up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A lot of John Williams is never excessive Although I think that 8 would be perfect for the PT (3 for TPM, 2 for AotC and 3 for RotS), 8 for the OT (2 for ANH, 2 for ESB, and 3 for RotJ + a bonus disc) and more for the ST (4 for TFA, 3 for TLJ, 7 for TROS) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Manakin Skywalker 4,891 Posted August 1, 2021 Share Posted August 1, 2021 19 minutes ago, May the Force be with You said: A lot of John Williams is never excessive Well, true. But what I meant is that there isn't enough content to fill up a third disc for those films. TPM *maybe*, although most of the alternates would easily fit on the second disc. ROTS on the other hand could fit everything easily on 2 discs, with room to spare. As for the OT ROTJ is the only one that would need a third disc to get all the source material on there, another bonus disc wouldn't be necessarily in that case since there'd still be a plethora of room on that third disc to fit in tons of bonus content from the other two films. The ST would probably need three for each, a fourth might not be necessarily for any of them depending on how many cues have significant alternates.

Raiders of the SoundtrArk 2,429 Posted August 1, 2021 Share Posted August 1, 2021 I've always thought that that ROTS might need a third disc because of the difference between the original album and the film version (although I'm not sure that Williams would allowed some of the film version). It would be a shame not to have the track Main Title and Revenge of the Sith in this edition, same for A New Hope and End Credits and this would at least length 20 minutes so I'm not sure that 2 hours would be sufficient to have the complete score and alternates As for the OT you're probably right a bonus disc might not be needed, I just don't know how much materials there is for ROTJ. Something like 3 hours or more? Finally I think that TROS could possibly need a fourth disc if Williams wrote two times what was needed because of JJ I'm also wondering if the arrangements for Mutter and the Skywalker Symphony Orchestra might be included in such a box set or would it be impossible?

It's just an edit that drops half the cues that were supposed to be in it, creating very unintendedly jarring transitions. The only "alternate" in it AFAIK is the fanfares right at the first pan, and the film version of that with the drums is probably just something created in the editing room.

Raiders of the SoundtrArk 2,429 Posted August 1, 2021 Share Posted August 1, 2021 Well I'm personally just attached to those edits plus I think that a SW boxset would deserve to be the more exhaustive possible. We're waiting for the prequels expansion since 2005 and more for TPM so it's not to have something in the vein of The Ultimate Edition of TPM, if we have it after twelve years (let's face it's not for this year) who knows how long we might wait again if some cues are missing (remember Hook... ) aj_vader 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Manakin Skywalker 4,891 Posted August 1, 2021 Share Posted August 1, 2021 Yeah film edits definitely wouldn't be included. But there are probably a few alternates here and there, such as the alternate bit of Goodbye Old Friend I'd like to hear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Manakin Skywalker 4,891 Posted August 1, 2021 Share Posted August 1, 2021 Right. The ONLY one I'd be okay with as maybe a bonus track is the percussion-only opening, if only so I can put together an isolated score track for myself But everything else just sounds awful, and can easily be recreated using the material that would be on these sets.

Holko 9,499 Posted August 1, 2021 Share Posted August 1, 2021 Yes, that's the only one I might even prefer over the written cue. It makes the opening a lot heavier and the entrance of the Force Theme a lot more impactful. aj_vader 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
