Yes, that's the one sense I can hear it in. The actual ROTJ cue could show up in the movie.

BOTH gives me the same feeling that the ROTJ duel music did so long ago: it feels like a bittersweet goodbye. This time the goodbye is forever.

I am shaking and goosebumps flaring... is there a chance of anymore tonight?? If not, Bed awaits me

Ternian was basing what he said about "The Darkside Beckons" from what he heard in the TV spot...

I would agree. BOTH takes small elements of Dark Side Beckons, but runs at a much quicker pace, presumably to keep up with the energetic nature of the duel.

Dark Side Beckons had the feel of "epic conclusion" while BOTH gives me the feel of "the inevitable doomsday is here."

Just sharing random thoughts while this music plays in my headphones over and over....

Sorry for this offtopic post.

But since you are the third MFer to ask about my Avatar...

I just found the original Hellboy animation, it was done by a guy named Rune Spaans using 3DSMax.

A link to the original 640x480 AVI and more info can be found here:

I'd forgotten how beautiful the original was.

What an amazing surprise this was... cheers, Darth Psychotic.

A couple questions... in track one, is that actually the way it's going to transition out of the opening crawl into the space battle? I like it... very different and sudden when compared to the others, but I remember that the TPM soundtrack didn't really have it the way it actually was in the movie... it went into the Coruscant landing cue (one of my favorite prequel cues) instead.

Battle of the Heroes sounds great. Unfortunately, I keep hearing the Terminator theme in the main lick. Both protaganists do have a nasty run-in with lava, however.

Love that Leia theme... but wonder if the Luke and Leia theme from ROTJ might have been more appropriate. From what I've read, it doesn't make an appearance. Can anyone verify?

Hey royalguard96

Where in Michigan are you? I'm in A2

Reason I ask is I figured you might be interested, Orli Shoshan, the model who plays Shaak Ti is going to be at a comic store in Taylor next friday and saturday. You can check out the details here:

hi I was born in Marquette Michigan, one mile from the world's largest lake (I think) Lake Superior.

ps - track09 - Anakin vs Obi-Wan is up.

I haven't even listened to them yet and i'm already bowing to DP!

Indeed, the mighty MF.com will forever be known as the premier site for the best Episode 3 spoilers anywhere. This will be an era long remembered.

I've got a buddy who came from there.

Patience my friends, after a few refreshes Darth caught it and switched it to track 9. By the way, NICE pic of Grievous.

Hey darthpsychotic, how many more you gonna post tonight?? I got work in like 5 hrs.. and I need sleep but I need soundtrack too.... anymore tonight?? or maybe later?? and thanks for giving us this.. I am loving every minute of it

Hey man I am not too far from Ann Arbor a lil west of there in Hillsdale. Surrounded by farms out here. And Marquette's hockey team ended my high school athletic career bastards


Awesome news about Shaak Ti! She is a serious babe! I might have to head over there next Saturday. I appreciate the tip!

I live in Ann Arbor: Couzens Hall. You go to school here?

Nope just a "townie"

Boy, am I glad that I didn't go to bed early tonight.

Looking forward to the goosebumps to come, right now I'm lost in the bombast of opening track. I hear shades of the Raiders 'Desert Chase' coming in around 3:15....

DP: Thank you, Thank you, and Thank you some more and once again Thank you!

i am owned.

the whole time i was listening to these i similtaneously coughed/cried/sneezed/threw up/pissed/burped/farted/nutted all over the place. great stuff!

Good Lord, these are amazing.

Little did DP know of the impending barrage of hot, gay, nerd-love he'd be bringing upon himself with this post

or did he?

I hear Williams quoting the Imperial Attack(I think that's the name of it) from ANH at the 3 minute mark in Battle of the Heroes.

These tracks are amazing! Tear jerkers for sure.

Ok, I listened to the 3 tracks once (won't do it again) I am a bit ashamed, but I figured 3 tracks wouldn't hurt.

However, I am *really* impressed! I absolutely love Battle Of Heroes, it's a fantastic main theme and I like it millions and millions of times better than Duel of Fates (and quite frankly, it didn't remind me of it at all). What really threw me back to the good old days, though, was the finale. It's seems like a perfect final touch to bridge the gap between Ep. III and IV. The first track had things that reminded me a lot of the two first Indy movies. Mesa moi, moi lovin' it!!

All I gotta say is Track 1, time 1:39 = everyone owned.

Williams really spent some time on this score and it shows.

This shit owns... all other shit.

Eloquently put. Couldn't have said it better myself.

LUCAS?! I'll assume you're just delusionally overwhelmed at this point...

_Mike

Hey, some of us chicks dig DP for this, too.

lol Jesus Christ, thanks for pointing that out. Sorry, soundtrack blew my mind.

Williams*

Anakin vs ObiWan is excellente !!!

Thanks a lot DP

I hope the 14 Padmé destiny is the next

I think waht Zeal means is that Lucas really collaborated with Williams on this score


EDIT: Oh, nvm. Nonetheless, just from these four tracks, I think it's pretty clear that was the case.

People like to personify a project by it's leader and it's very true of directors. Think Bill Gates wrote Windows 95?

All hail dp!!

Mr. Williams, in addition to writing it, directed the LSO.

Regarding the rest of the soundtrack, this should be it for now till late Saturday night. I need to be online to leak this stuff and need some sleep + tomorrow is going to be very busy for me.

It's not a simple matter of just putting it out, Ternian and "The Dude" have to be consulted.

I see. Well in this case, such people would be ignorant and insulting. Lucas was at the scoring session pretty much like everybody else: hearing the music for the first time, safe in the knowledge that he and his movie were in good hands.

_Mike

Man, I can't thank you ENOUGH.

The last track was amazing.

Well thanks for everything you did tonight!

thanks DP!

I thought it was just a rehash to be honest.

Yes, DP... belated thanks... my favorite spoilers by a mile.

_Mike

Thanks a million DP, it's been a special night and we appreciate everything. Can't wait until Saturday night. Cheers and I wish you a good night.

Thanks DP!

DP, you rock.

I dunno, the last track just felt like a great way to bring an end to the saga.

I still think some of the best tracks are yet to be given - Anakin's Dream and Padme's Renumeration.

Jeez man, new slow rendition of the Imperial March? This score's got it all. 10/10

I take everything back, what I thought about Batlle of the heroes. Once the choir starts it's great. The other tracks are also very fine, so atleast the soundtrack doesn't dissappoint for sure.
