"Ya-na na na naaaaaaaaaa!..." segueing perfectly into the SW Anthem was a goosepimple moment for me, and still is. The new music didn't satisfy me at all.
Plus, the without the GOUT ending there would BE no EU. If everything was wrapped up nicely with the popping of a giant quaffle, then I wouldn't be writing "The Rise of Darth Scourge"! OK, a cheap plug and actually my story has nothing whatever to do with the classic characters, but my inspiration came from the same stock that all the other EU writers did.
