I think I may have found the number one reason i wish the prequels were better films

You know I was just playing Star Wars battlefront 2 and it uses a lot of music from the prequels because they were new at the time and hearing the music on it’s own I really like it. Now I really wish the prequels had been better because the music was so tied to scenes that never made sense to me or I just didn’t care about because i didn’t like any of the characters that I didn’t notice just how good it was at the time. I mean the music from the Anikin and Obiwan dual in episode three is really good, but because i didn’t ever believe they were friends the music didn’t make an impression on me at the time.

I guess that is John Williams for you, even when the movie suck his stuff is still good.

Yeah John Williams is the #1 composer of all time when it comes to making unique, emotional, and iconic music.

Well I would tie him with Max Steiner and Bernard Herman(who’s scores I always remember and always leave an impact as well)but that puts him in great company.

I mean even the scores no one talks about like Catch me if you can, I love and will listen to on my own and now after playing Battlefront 2 I really want to get the prequel scores despite the fact that I will most likely never watch the films again, now that is saying something about the man’s talent.

I mean I was just watching Superman the movie the other night and my little sister pointed out that the tune March of the Villains from that movie is the exact same tune as March of the Ewoks from Jedi just with different instruments and i didn’t care because he just that good.

I don’t remember the music being very notable in Beethoven.

Lol, obviously I meant in film

So did Nicky reform in prison and then go straight after trying to steal the fabulous Baseball Diamond or are we dealing with a “The Stepfather” type situation where he became a serial killer who murdered whole families including the pets here?

I’ll buy that.

My favorite film composer by far is Bernard Hermann. Taxi Driver, North by Northwest, Vertigo, … man, those are some truly amazing scores. Especially Vertigo, the piece actually builds throughout the movie, and finally comes together during the climatic scene. He was truly one-of-a-kind.

The main reason I wish the prequels were better is that 12 year old me thought it was a good idea to buy them on DVD, and now I’m stuck with them.
