I’m not totally pleased as of yet and I will need to re-watch it when my brain has had a break, but take a look and give pro’s and con’s and feedback. Also I’m not sure how you guys feel about the Piano Theme getting a second chance, but I think it fits for the ending. I could also just leave the scene alone. I like the duel tho’.
Going to bed now. Nighty-nighty!
I liked the battle theme, helped to enhance the duel significantly. But the piano theme I really don’t know what to think of, sincerely.
Personally I think that it could be cool if Obi-Wan, after seeing Vader with the broken helmet, heards Qui Gon’s voice saying “He’s the chosen one”. To me this would make more sense to Ben choosing to leaving him alive, because even if he feels that he can’t kill Anakin because he still cares about him, it was a pretty dick move to not do so (after all, Ben knows that Vader is torturing a bunch of people through the galaxy). The only thing that I can think of to Ben not killing Vader is if his own master gives him guidance through the force saying this, because it would reinforce that even Anakin going to the dark side there’s still hope for him. After all, Ben is seeking for Qui Gon’s guidance the whole show, it would be natural if he manifests in a crucial moment of decision like this.
If this approach was chosen, I would suggest a more uplifting theme instead of the piano theme, like the theme of when Luke saw the twin suns outside of his house (or something like this). After all, ROTS ended in a pretty dark way, and this finale is almost THE SAME of ROTS (Obi-Wan abandoning Anakin because he thinks he have no salvation). I think it could be cool to see a more hopeful tone in the end for Anakin in this one, even to differentiate a bit from the tone of ROTS.
