I noticed that you are using the 1977 opening in your edit and not all the others dating back to 1981. The pan-down movement towards the planets in the other versions are different from the ’77 version.

As for the music-take that you are using in the ’77 version, it is still unsync’d, especially at the point where the tip of Tatooine’s tip emerges from the screen’s bottom. That is where that orchestral ‘crash’ is supposed to happen. The ‘crash’ in your sample (even though ‘Take 19’ has some of the instruments removed at that point—the gong and the tympani) happens just shortly after Tatooine appears on screen.

The solution would be to speed-up ‘Take-19’ to sync with the music-take used in the ’77 final edit.
