I found some silly mistakes

Found some mistakes in the movies (as compared to the soundtrack)

JAWS

Right after the first barrel goes under....

Clarinet line states the fanfare ish motif as a eighth - eight pattern (movie) rather then the dotted eighth - sixteenth pattern (soundtrack).

RETURN OF THE KING

During the Lighting of the Beacons:

The Climax of the huge string part and brass part

on my dvd 48:34

is a different chord then the soundtrack

(trumpet fanfare may be a bit different)

RETURN OF THE JEDI (Old news)

Extra grace notes on the high trumpet during the main title crawl - not on any other star wars soundtrack or film.

Ok sorry for nitpicking

Why are they mistakes? I'm pretty sure the movie Lighting of the Beacons is a quite different orchestration than the album version to begin with.

Marian - who kinda prefers the album version, but wants both on CD. :)

Those are not mistakes, just different arrangements, for all kinds of posible reasons-- flows better on CD, an extra second or two added in the movie, "better do it that way here regardless or other uses of the theme", let's please the director, I prefer it this way on the CD, ...

Yeah defend Shore.

You know you just said John Williams makes silly mistakes.

I didn't. I just never noticed those two Williams bits mentioned above, so I can't speak about those. Yet I always noticed the Beacon music sounding entirely different in the movie.

Marian - who wouldn't hesitate to defend Shore if he thought it to be the right thing. :(

You guys have a LOT of time on your hands to notice all of this. I mean, I love his music but I guess I'm just young. :thumbup:

Young, and also a little new to be saying that. :|
