There was one shot that I really loved in the movie and keep thinking about. It’s when Rey is entering the Sith temple and it’s this super wide shot of her walking through it, with the dark floor and dark ceiling making her feel tiny in comparison. And during it, we hear the Emperor’s theme play in the background.

While I’m not a fan of Rey Palpatine, I think it would’ve been awesome if at this moment we had heard a version of the Emperor’s theme, but with a female chorus. It would be like the theme for her newfound past and potential future, the power she could have if she gave in.

But John Williams probably finished scoring by the time they changed that in reshoots!
