    The score is so iconic I can see and hear the movie--dialogue, effects, everything--in my head.

    There is one slightly humorous aspect to this. Darth Vader lived out the dream of overprotective fathers... he put his daughter's punk boyfriend on ice.

    2:12 I think that is the coolest transition ever. The tone of this scene is genuinely terrifying. Watching Han getting frozen, not knowing if he'll survive. The main character's fear, and that badass shot of Vader as the smoke rises.

    I feel John Williams is definitely more at home when he is doing emotional themes and transitioning between different moods. 7:34 to 8:11 is so well orchestrated. Particularly at 7:48 where it transitions into a feeling of hopelessness - chills. I've said it before and I'll say it again, nobody can or ever will replace John Williams in my opinion when it comes to making a person not just watch a film but feel it through music. ESB is his finest cinematic work and I've listened to just about everything he has done. Of course, that's just my opinion, yours may be different.

    One thing I've never understood about this scene is that when Han Solo gets lowered into the chamber his hands are bound in front of him in handcuffs that appear to be too tough to break free from (we would have seen it otherwise, I'd have thought). Despite this, after he is risen from the chamber and is shown to be in carbon freeze his hands are now either side of him, palms up, by the side of his head and there's no trace of the handcuffs. So, can anyone please explain to me how this happened?
