Elmo Lewis 6 Posted February 5, 2006 Share Posted February 5, 2006 Well, ROTS is one of Williams' finest efforts (second only to ESB in the Star Wars saga, I think), but an even finer effort, and that's saying a lot, would be his masterpiece Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban.

Marian Schedenig 8,193 Posted February 5, 2006 Share Posted February 5, 2006 Away with ROTS. It's a shame it's still here, but if POA wins, one of the best 21st Century Williams scores wins (and possibly my favourite), so not all is lost.Marian - who'd choose at least all the Potter scores, and possibly WOTW, over ROTS.

scissorhands 16 Posted February 5, 2006 Share Posted February 5, 2006 And in the end, I keep voting for a Harry Potter score.Revenge of the Sith is my favorite Star Wars score (I won't say "the best", these absolute statements have been overused in all this contest), after The Phantom Menace, and one of John Williams' greatest efforts.Marian - who'd choose at least all the Potter scores, and possibly WOTW, over ROTS. I would choose WOTW over any score. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard Penna 3,687 Posted February 5, 2006 Share Posted February 5, 2006 I too was disappointed WotW was voted off so soon. I had trouble narrowing down my favourite cues for the other thread and I listen to it a lot at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tim, who voted to release Revenge of the Sith from this contest. May Azkaban be the winner!P.S., I would say Philospher's Stone is the best 21th Century score for Williams.

Joni Wiljami 1,206 Posted February 5, 2006 Share Posted February 5, 2006 Even thought Azkaban is gorgeous and beautiful score,I have to vote it off.Sith is, after all , is a Star Wars score with all that grandeur.

Vaderbait1 1 Posted February 5, 2006 Share Posted February 5, 2006 Gotta vote Azkaban. It's a good score, but ROTS is better. For the same reason as hornist. It's BIG. It's epic, tragic, hopeful, all at the same time. I think it's by far the most complex 21st Century score with the more memorable, challenging music. And again, the interwoven themes fit perfectly.

JoeinAR 1,949 Posted February 5, 2006 Share Posted February 5, 2006 well its obvious the future is bleak here with all the newbie's voting HPSS off over the insipid Rots, the utter ignorance that Rots is superior to SS, or any JW HP score is beyond belief, serious there isn't a single track on Rots that is the equal or superior to Hedwids Theme, Diagon Alley, Harry's Wonderous World, Fawkes Theme, COS, Reunion of Friends, Window to the Past, Buckbeak's flight, and Double Trouble.

SturgisPodmore 0 Posted February 6, 2006 Share Posted February 6, 2006 I think RotS is by far the most complex 21st Century score with the more memorable, challenging music. And again, the interwoven themes fit perfectly.PoA actually beats it in both of those categories. There are at least three new themes in PoA. There are only two in RotS, and one of them sounds a heck of a lot like Cinque's Theme. And if you want to hear complexity, listen to "The Whomping Willow." Here there are none of Williams' cliche "auto-pilot" interjections with flute and xylophone. And, oh yes, they returned for RotS. See ya, Sith!

AzOutcast 122 Posted February 6, 2006 Share Posted February 6, 2006 I don't think it's any surprise that HP will win (I voted for it). What I'm really suprised in is people's hatred for Sith. If anyone thinks Sith is better than a Harry Potter score, than they're idiots or newbies or SW fanboys . . . Geeze guys, relax. Art is all a matter of opinion. I know I said it before, but I'm just glad to find others that actually dig Williams' music. I'm not about to swear off the boards if my favorite score isn't yours.

Docteur Qui 1,544 Posted February 6, 2006 Share Posted February 6, 2006 If anyone thinks Sith is better than a Harry Potter score, than they're idiots or newbies or SW fanboys . . . Finally! You see where we're coming from. Seriously, it's not that anyone hates Sith, it's just enraging that the novelty score is considered by anyone to be anywhere near the best of Williams' best output in this century. When it comes down to it, Sith will never be the better score in many people's view. I'm just as confused why it's so loved as you are why it's so unliked, but that's just the way it is.well its obvious the future is bleak here with all the newbie's voting HPSS off over the insipid Rots,the utter ignorance that Rots is superior to SS, or any JW HP score is beyond belief, serious there isn't a single track on Rots that is the equal or superior to Hedwids Theme, Diagon Alley, Harry's Wonderous World, Fawkes Theme, COS, Reunion of Friends, Window to the Past, Buckbeak's flight, and Double Trouble..As I said, it's quite enraging.

If you don't like my opinion TOUGH CRAP.Ya know, I've just re-read what I said and I'm afraid there's probably several misunderstandings. First and foremost, I voted for HP meaning I voted AGAINST it. Secondly, I meant to say that the whole "If anyone thinks Sith is better than a Harry Potter score . . ." quote was what other people are saying. If you want to know the truth, I myself was about to go off on a rant on how the Sith score kicks the ass of any Potter score, any day of the week and twice on Sundays, but I decided to be a little bit more passive ('cause I'm a pussy).With that said, hopefully the second paragraph makes a little bit more sense. I wasn't trying to come off like an arrogant ass or anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
