Just what I wanted to say... in fact all three "Battle of Endor"-cues form the best music that can be found in ROTJ. Still, I like TESB's soundtrack the best... the Hoth-battle, Yoda, Han & Leia... it can't be beaten.

Regarding the prequels I still think "Across the Stars" is the thing I like most. Oddly enough, considering that it's just a rip-off of Williams' own "Hook"-theme. But still, when I heard "Confrontation with Count Dooku & Finale" (and that was BEFORE I saw the movie), including the Imperial March, I had a film running in front of my mind's eye, that was just the PERFECT Episode 2... no cheesy crap, but a VERY dark and sinister end battle, with a proper emotional factor.

I agree that the PT didn't have many outstanding themes though... I didn't even like "Battle of the Heroes" that much, it was just too similar to "Duel of Fates", and a little to simple for my taste.
