Re-scoring AOTC arene battle with existing music. As someone who thinks the Phantom Edit and Attack of the Edit are stupid, I'm going to be openly hypocritical here and suggest a rescoring of the end battles in AOTC. I don't know if Ben Burtt is responsible for the music editing in AOTC, but if he is, he should be shot. It sucks. We've established that many times so I won't elaborate. I was messing around with a couple CDs and the AOTC dvd and here is my suggested re-mix. Anakin, Obi, Padme section: - The existing track 11 on the AOTC soundtrack. The music as JW scored it kicks ass. Just play the DVD while listening to the music as the man intended it to be, and the scene immediately is infinitely more exciting. Starting with Mace's Leap: - The Force theme section of Track 1 of the ROTS soundtrack. We're watching 200 Jedi fight at once, when we've never seen more than two or three go at it before. Why the fuck wouldn't the Jedi/Force theme just make sense here? After 3PO delivers some dumb lines and Mace starts fighting a battle droid: - Duel of the Fates (Starting from after the loud choral intro) If you start here and play DOTF, it's almost as if they edited the scene to this music. But instead, they decided to chop up the somewhat goofy TPM droid battle music and slip it in here. I might actually mix together a track, but I am kind of lazy. But try watching this scene with those cues. I guarantee you'll find the scene becomes as nasty as it should've been to begin with. |

I actually played Duel Of The Fates alongside the arena battle and it's pretty nifty. It's by no means perfect but it would have been great to have that backing the scene up. The only thing that really doesn't work with the music is the C-3PO bullshit. But then that was always out of place in what's supposed to be a terrible battle. |

I re-edited the arena scene (I know, blasphemy coming from a very anti phantom edit guy...but whatever...) and took out the 3PO stuff. The scene is just so much better w/o that crap in there its amazing how much more powerful and exciting the scene is w/o 3PO and with Duel of the Fates. It's really disheartening that Lucas had to go adding all that crap in after the fact. The shots of the Jedi getting shot down are so much more powerful when cut back to back as oppossed to having that whack 3PO shit in between....oh well. I can deal. |
