Rogue-theX just sent me the new score he put together for the speeder bike chase... amazing.

I just watched the clip....it is serviceable but it does not totally fit thematically (Yeah i know a bit ironic coming from someone who does a lot of Rescores), such as the trade federation theme playing during certain portions, personally I would have had a youtube friend of mine compose new music for the scene, perhaps an action variant of the Luke and Leia theme, but its YOUR edit not mine, so two big thumbs up for you from me

This is just my personal preference, BUT...

...since you're doing a new version of your ROTS edit as well (I haven't seen your first version, but I'm intrigued), you're in a unique position to be able to remove the Leia-as-Luke's-sister plot point.  Especially since you've cut Luke and Obi-Wan's conversation on Dagobah.

That was always one of my least favorite things about ROTJ - Luke's Vader's son and Leia's sister?  Really?  The galaxy is that small?

Just a suggestion for a change that I personally wouldn't hesitate to make, but I can understand if you want to leave it as is.

I agree that would be a intelligent change, but its ultimately up to Spence*

The music heard over "Bring my shuttle" is far better than the music heard over "Alert my Star Destroyer," too.

You mean the music is better utilized over "Bring my shuttle"

No, I'm fairly certain it's a different cue, necessitated by the addition of all those pointless "flying to the Executor" shots.  They're definitely both based around the Imperial March, but they're not the same cue.

That is what I meant

But you made is seem that the new music was not as good as the other, and I said no, it did not fit the scene, but it was good (its John Williams).

Yeah, that's exactly what I meant.  The SE cue is inferior.  The original cue is better musically than the cue used in the SE.

Just because it's John Williams doesn't mean it's inherently as good as other John Williams.

Well it was composed for the movie, but not for the scene, so it was good for the movie, but not good for the scene they used in, it was tracked from when Vader tells Luke he is his father (but you already knew that)
