Just an update, even though nobody seems to really care.

I've decided against adding original trilogy music to the prequel trilogy. Maybe in a few spots, but overall no for 2 reasons:

1. The scores of the original trilogy, other than the main theme, didn't really have any relationship with each other so why should the PT?

and

2. There aren't really two many places it would fit. The prequel trilogy has a different story to tell than the OT, and it's a much more tragedic story, and the music should be mostly different. 

One thing I'd do with the music in the PT is try to edit it back to the way John Williams wrote and recorded it. Mainly in the end battle.

 

Hmm... I'll look into doing that. I was originally going to do this alot, because musically it sounds better the way Williams wrote it, but as far as it fit into the flow of the movie sometimes it works best the way it is. I might take a look at the end battle.

 

Also just some info on progress. I didn't actually get around to start editing until yesterday (previously I was just doing music tests and such) and am almost midway through it. I've cut a TON of stuff out, things unnecessary to the story. Captain Obvious's only line I've left in so far is the one about the hyperdrive leaking blah blah because otherwise you don't know why they are going to Tattoine. I'd estimate the final running time to be around an hour and a half to an hour and 45 minutes.
