Doing this post, thinking about A New Hope, awakened the screaming dweeb within me, so pardon me while I satisfy my inner, honking geek.
Here's a short tribute to what I consider to be one of the greatest moments/scenes in film history. I still can't watch it without getting goosebumps and blubbering like a child.
This first video is the evolution of the scene, as depicted in first, Attack of the Clones, next, Revenge of the Sith, and finally, A New Hope. I think it turned out well, and I used John Williams' beautiful score as a guide:
The Star Wars movies would have been completely different if John Williams had not done the music. Sometimes I think that's the main reason they had the impact on me they did. Take for example the carbon freeze scene from Empire. Without "Han Solo and the Princess" playing in the background, that scene wouldn't have had nearly the depth of pathos.
Toss me the Darth Maul model while I put "Duel of Fates" on, and let's get down to business.
ReplyDeleteYes, that's the "money shot" in Revenge of the Sith. In fact, it's all about that scene.
