Then why post it in this thread?
Honestly, a lot of you people don't seem to understand that there is an entire forum full of other threads here.
Perhaps I just wanted to share it with Adywan?
Seriously man, you don't have to be condescending.
Oh, okay, that's all fine, I just thought it was "cool" at the time, (about 8 years ago) and yes, in the 'modern bash-you-over-the-head with this moments EPICNESSSSSSS!!!" kind of way'. But oh well, thanks for listening. And I wasn't really ever serious about "changing" the scene, I understand that it's fine the way it is.
Okay, here you guys go again, the link to my proof of concept on vimeo:
Last I check though, it was still converting.

By all means put together your own version as a proof of concept... I'm sure it will prove an interesting alternate view.
Here, you guys go, my proof-of-concept.
I know you said no suggestions, but I was just wondering if you were ever going to fix the continuity error created by the standing R2 model against the three-legged R2 model? Because for the standing R2 model, silver tubes for the actor's feet can be clearly seen, with the feet moving in them, while on the three-legged "cruise" model, these silver tubes are nowhere to be seen. This is especially evident in the scene where Uncle Owen purchases the droids from the Jawas.
Oh, yeah, I suppose I wasn't really talking about Revisited anymore, and I respect Adywan's decision, it was just people's apparent prejudice that was bothering me. I'd rather be shot down after first being given a chance to at least try to prove the concept, but comments like "don't bother" are a little discouraging.
I only thought that I'd get a little more support considering that Adywan used prequel trilogy music in more than one instance during his ANH:R. I also thought some music would've helped to fill the silence.
It’s really unfortunate that you all are really close minded. All I wanted to do was share something nice I found, but you guys have already passed judgement on something you haven’t even seen for yourselves.
It's sad.
I wasn't suggesting that there was anything wrong with the ESB score, I just though it would have been interesting, but alas, I digress.
I'd give you guys a mock up if I knew what type of editing software I could use.

Hi I don't know how far along Empire Revisited is, but I just wanted to put in a quick suggestion that I've been wanting to give for a long time. In the scene where Vader reveals to Luke that he is his father, you could give the same musical beat that was given in Episode III when Obi-Wan discovers that Anakin is the father of Padme's baby, just to give it some symmetry and because the effect and emphasis, to me, is outstanding. John Williams has developed so much as a composer since the time of ESB and so I do feel that his newer music truly enhances the scene, as it was the redeeming quality of the Prequel Trilogy.
You would have to line up the 3:16 mark of "Anakin's Dark Deeds" with the 1:46:42 mark of The Empire Strikes Back, and then obviously wind back the minutes to begin before that moment. (1:56/1:44:22).
Just please, before making any conclusions, give it a try, and let me know what you think! It works fine if you just overlap the scene with iTunes playing.
I think it's a great idea...
And while you're at it, you could replace all Vader's Imperial March themes with Little Ani's theme from TPM!
Excellent!
Ouch, you guys, that really hurts. I'm sure you guys didn't even give it a chance. :/

I don't where to begin...
Oh, come now, how far can bias go that could make one deny such gems as "Duel of the Fates" or "Battle of the Heroes"? Face it, the prequel trilogy had a pretty stellar soundtrack if nothing else. That's not to say that the original trilogy score wasn't stellar, and completely iconic, but this is the 21st Century.
