Sandor 459 Posted February 26, 2005 Share Posted February 26, 2005 What's your personal favorite?Mine: The Binary Sunset from A New Hope (obviousley) orThe Final Duel from Return Of The Jedi. I've watched that scene countless times just to hear the music. I wonder if Episode III will have something to top these. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Crichton 4 Posted February 26, 2005 Share Posted February 26, 2005 Too many to choose from. But if you put a gun to my head and made me choose, you'd be one sick SOB. And I'd probably scream out the chorus/orchestra explosion in the final deul of Jedi. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pixie_twinkle 44 Posted February 26, 2005 Share Posted February 26, 2005 Aside from the obvious answer (Binary Sunset), the ultimate score moment for me comes about a minute or so into The Asteroid Field, where the asteroid theme kicks in for the first time. It works so well with the sound effect of the Tie fighter spinning out of control too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marian Schedenig 5,520 Posted February 26, 2005 Share Posted February 26, 2005 One of my favourites is Vader's appearance on the rebel base on Hoth.Marian - Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Composer_Fan 2 Posted February 27, 2005 Share Posted February 27, 2005 Though it may seem cliche, I'll say the Main Titles theme, because it's so impactive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morlock 9 Posted February 27, 2005 Share Posted February 27, 2005 Aside from the main titles and opening of the end titles from every film, The Throne Room has to take the prize for me. Second would probably be the Emperor's arrival. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unlucky Bastard 7,765 Posted February 27, 2005 Share Posted February 27, 2005 "Ben Kenobi's Death/Tie Fighter Attack" and "The Throne Room/End Titles".These aren't necessarily my only favourite musical moments in SW, but they're when the music reaches it's peak.

BigKenLittle 6 Posted February 27, 2005 Share Posted February 27, 2005 For me... The scene where Vader chucks Palpatine down the station's shaft in Return Of The Jedi, and the Force theme comes forth in all it's glory, signifying Anakin's reclaimation and fulfillment of the prophecy...

Greg1138 2 Posted February 27, 2005 Share Posted February 27, 2005 "The Battle of Yavin", "The Death Star/The Stormtroopers", and the moment when the Imperial March kicks in at the end of AOTC..........oh - and the choral fireworks as Luke and Vader battle again....but I don't think it has ever been mixed really well on an album....yet....the best version IMO is on the Anthology.....

batmanand 0 Posted March 9, 2005 Share Posted March 9, 2005 The best musical bits from each film:I: Anakin is Free - that incredible playing of the Force theme. That is the bit in the score that truly says "Williams is back, and is still the best", whilst at the same time sending shivers down your spine.II: Either the end of the film, with the Imperial March and Across the Stars; or that incredible transition fanfare for KaminoIII: Who knows! Lament sounds like it will be a treat though...IV: Binary Sunset. Has to be.V: Oh so many! Numerous fantastic statements of the Imperial March (e.g. when Vader enters the Hoth base; when he commands the Starfleet to search the galaxy; when he appears on Cloud City; when he is about to torture Solo; when he is trying to call for Luke telepathically etc.); the AMAZING statement of the Love theme when Solo is being lowered into the carbon freeze; the Asteroid Field; the music when the Millenium Falcoln is being followed by the Star Destroyer and Solo does his "stick to back of bridge" trick; the Hyperspace rythmn. BUT, if I had to pick just one, I would pick the statements of the Force and Yoda's themes when Luke and Vader are dulling and Luke jumps out of the carbon freeze pit 9techincally not in the film, but it should have been....)VI: The Dark Side Beckons. No contest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trumpeteer 243 Posted March 9, 2005 Share Posted March 9, 2005 We've done this thread before. And I'm still sticking with "The Dark Side Beckons," from the moment Vader starts chucking things at Luke to when the Millenium Falcon takes off and we cut back to the reactor shaft.Jeff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miz 114 Posted March 10, 2005 Share Posted March 10, 2005 I'm inclined to say 'The Tide Turns' from TPM. I've made an mp3 of just the 'Anakin escapes the starship' sequence, and it's a brilliant little number that packs a punch every time I hear it.
