Star Wars

[Kumar/w Harold]

In the latest official site update, Anthony Daniels revealed a worthy point
of trivia: It seems the character with the very the last line of dialogue in
"Episode III" is the very same character that has the first line of dialogue
in "Episode IV: A New Hope" - ie. C-3PO. In the same set - how's that for
bridging the saga? Also, with the scoring session now well underway, an item
was marked as Darth Sidious's only moment of compassion ever recorded.

Also with each Star Wars film, composer John Williams has selected a
particular composition to stand apart. It's removed from the context of the
film, and generally has its start or end reworked so that it becomes a
standalone musical piece. In the past, these have become singles on the
soundtrack, concert suites or music videos. Examples include "Main Title,"
"Darth Vader's Theme (Imperial March)," "The Forest Battle," "Duel of the
Fates," and "Across the Stars."

For Episode III, a dramatic cue from the sixth reel gets that treatment.
Called "Revenge of the Sith" -- or less colorfully, 6M9 -- it appears in the
film during the thick of the duel between Obi-Wan and Anakin Skywalker. The
first half of the second day of scoring sessions consists of capturing this
piece for both inclusion in the film, and as a modified version for the
soundtrack release. In the end, it will include moments of heavy percussion,
as well as the emotional sweep provided by a choir.

1. I wonder that that moment of compassin will be? Whoa.

"I know, Tyrannus. It was wrong of Anakin to eat all your pork rinds."
(Sad, lilting version of Palpy's theme.)

2. 3PO ends it all and helps to set up the transition - sweeeeeeet.

Even though Lucas recovered a bit from the bs in Episode 1, I'm not sure
that this bodes well.

I've always thought that all we need to set up Episode 4 was to make
sure that the audience sees that Luke is set up with Owen & Beru. I'm
not even sure if we need to know that Luke is Anakin's kid since, if you
take the six films in order, while Owen drops odd comments about Luke's
dad, I'm not sure if the viewer is supposed to know that Vader is Luke's
father until Empire. Or that Leia's his sister until Jedi.

Does this mean we may see the unused footage from ANH with Luke and Biggs
seeing the battle above Tatooine?
