Also, the Skywalker theme only has a short bridging section taken from Korngold, whereas the Rebel fanfare as a whole is lifted from Dukas.

Seriously, I agree, they're too different.

Well, you see, I wasn't going for "development" as they are obviously too far apart in that area. I was going for more "enjoyable" (guess I should have already pointed that out *slaps self*). The 2 share 1 main similarity...heroic.

As I've said before, I hate the word "better" in contexts like this. But I voted for Luke's theme because, as others have stated, it has more uses. The Rebel Fanfare is great, but it's less flexible than Luke's theme. I must say, I got quite a surge of adrenaline when I first heard it in ROTS ("Get 'Em R2").

I prefer hearing a triumphant version of the Rebel Fanfare than a triumphant version of Luke's theme, I do admit. It seems so cheesy when you hear Luke's theme after he does something heroic. I don't know why - I'm fine with hearing the Raiders march after Indy does something interesting.
