Which Star Wars film had the best soundtrack?
>>
>>67131087
Jedi or Empire
>>
>>67131087
Empire, no question.
>>
Empire or Sith.
>>
IV by far
>>
all of them except 7
>>
>>67131147

7 is definitely the worst. Doesn't even seem like the work of John Williams.
>>
It's really hard between Empire and A New Hope for me.
>>
Empire or RotS
I prefer RotS

3,4,5 although they all have some great music, except 7. that's dogshit.
>>
They're all pretty damn good except 7. Not a single memorable moment.

>>67131087
TPM was the best. Then maybe Empire.
>>
>>67131147

>>
RoTS.

Yep.
It's not on any CD and you can't download it off of iTunes or anything.

It had to be extracted from the PS2/Xbox game.

It's the music in this scene.
>>
>>67131385
I get triggered sometimes listening to anakin's betrayal because it makes me think about how memorable the saga could have been if they just paired all the scores with something that isn't a piece of shit.
And the same goes for the visuals in the padme's ruminations scene.

It's just amazing to me how dogshit 7 is compared to the other movies. Even in the prequels where almost nothing went right the soundtrack was fucking incredible.

Overall ESB probably comes out on top. The Imperial March is one of the most memorable tunes in the history of cinema, that alone kind of propels it to the top. But the other tracks were great as well. The ending scene was fucking magic too.

Jedi has some great tracks too, all of the music around the Emperor and Luke's duel with Vader was just perfect.

Despite being dogshit and overall the low point of the soundtracks across the Lucas films Episode II had Across the Stars which is one of the best tracks of the films.

Episode I had some good tracks other than duel of the fates though that was good too. I honestly wish they hadn't shown

And of course III had some of the best tracks since ESB

thanks for posting, good input

ANH is great but ESB is a masterpiece. The scene transition pieces are genius.
>>
>>67131534
This. Ep 3 especially has some amazing pieces ruined by Lucas' shitty editing.

>>67131087
liked ending of ROTJ and ROTS duel music

Although TFA had the weakest soundtrack of all of the movies, there was only a few that brought back that "feel this emotion" feel of William' scores:

>we will never get as hyped for a battle like ROTJ and ROTS made us feel.

also, feel like sound mixing was pretty weak in TFA; could barely hear the music.
