But I seem to remember other crescendos of the score being perfectly timed with the paragraph ends (much easier to achieve with those great one-word, hanging paragraph ends!).
Um, I freely admit I may have imagined this effect from simply listening to the score a zillion times, and picturing the crawl in my skull - - naturally synching up the various crescendos of the theme with the paragraphs as I imaginatively read them (loving the sensation of actually having to turn my head from side-to-side to read the text as it issues from the bottom of the giant screen, wider than my peripheral field of vision).
But speaking of comparisons to the EoD crawl ... whatever became of the controvery that the words "STAR WARS" disappear far earlier in relation to the crawl on the EoD version than on the new DVD? Completely subjectively, it seems to me that "STAR WARS" does indeed remain on the screen far too long into the crawl's appearance.
Don't get me wrong ... I'm eager and willing to be shown that the crawl is the real deal. And I incline in that direction right now.
And I'm glad I'm not insane about the subsequently added sound effects. (I hate being wrong about everything.)
