    ******************************
    16. Esempio audio 9: Anakin's Theme
    Un tema musicale apparentemente innocente che rappresenta il piccolo Anakin Skywalker: è però l'origine del tema di Darth Vader (Imperial March), che emerge alla fine di questa versione estesa.

    It sounds like the Imperial March because it IS the Imperial March, rewritten by John Williams to sound sweet and innocent, except at the end.

    In Episode I, Anakin was in fear.
    In Episode II, Anakin was in anger.
    In Episode III, Anakin was in hate.
    In Episodes IV, V, and VI, Anakin was in suffering.

    The thing that I like about this is when you briefly hear the imperial march theme, its pretty cool its basically giving a hint if this movie came first before A New Hope

  • @mehwishbhatti6207
    @mehwishbhatti6207 4 года назад +14

    Love this. You've got the sweet violin music then near the end the imperial March or darth vader leitmotif starts playing indicating that the character isn't who he seems, he is going to turn out to be the bad guy. The menacing chords and the echoes are the subtle detail that many might not pick up buy is still neat to include

    Its sad to know the ending of this song with the use of the Imperial March, forshadows what Anakin's future will be. Being a young boy who had dreams of being the most powerful Jedi and being the Chosen One, really puts into place what tragedy unfolds through his life. That piece at the end almost just makes you think back to when we first meet Darth Vader and never knew his story until now.

  • @hisnameisdean
    @hisnameisdean 4 года назад +8

    The prequels were actually some of my favorites, maybe a controversial statement to say 3 was possibly my favorite star wars movie. It's just so nice seeing a backstory come of one of the most known and evil villains in film history. A sad backstory at that, it's honestly depressing to see how desperate anakin was to become a jedi master only to be deceived by the jedi order and lash out, losing everything he loved. This song does a terrific job of bringing out the innocence of young anakin but also foreshadowing what would soon become of him. All in all John Williams cool dude make good music yes

    • @DamianHowardTV
      @DamianHowardTV 2 года назад +2

      I love ALL 3 of the Prequels! I did, when they were first released and I still do, today. I'd actually say more so now, than back then. Revenge of the Sith is my 1st favorite, followed by Attack of the Clones in 2nd and The Phantom Menace being my 3rd favorite. And I grew up with both the Original Trilogy *AND* the Prequel Trilogy. It's just the Prequel are what STAR WARS is, to me. Nothing will change that.

      We shouldn't forget also that on the official music soundtrack the name of the track is "The Imperial March (Darth Vader's Theme)." Some people don't like to call it Darth Vader's theme but that is the creators' take on it.

    2:52 I remember when I was a child at cinema. At end credits, we could hear Darth Vader's breathing just at this moment until the end of the music. I was part of the people who hadn't seen the original trilogy with my sister and my brother but my family had. And I saw their faces: they were afraid. I didn't understood why. My family never told us about the existence of the original trilogy until we saw Episode III. And today, I understood why they were afraid.

      Anakin in the Clone Wars was envisioned as the Han Solo of the three. Witch gave him a likable character. That is how he should have been portrayed in the prequel fims, it would have made Hus fall to the dark side more traumatic. Can you imagine someone as likable, as Han solo going bad! That would be hard to watch.

      +Z Libre If they were great movies, they would have done what The Force Awakens did: draw in droves of new fans, and make Star Wars once again beloved in popular culture (distinct from internet butthurt culture).
      World-building and risk-taking alone guarantee nothing beyond a good experience for some existing fans.

    • @theladyfromplanetx2847
      @theladyfromplanetx2847 7 лет назад +5

      They did draw in new fans, especially women. I walked out of TPM a bigger star warrior than with the OT and I bought my first SW t-shirt and a Jar Jar Binks doll (which I still have). My friend from Ethiopia finally saw all six films for the first time and loved them. As an artist she especially loves Queen Amidala's gowns.

    • @AndromedaRoach
      @AndromedaRoach 7 лет назад

      theladyfromplanetx I've been on both sides of this, since I loved each prequel when it originally came out. I don't have data to make solid claims, only my own experience, as you have yours. For example, I could mention my friend from Taiwan who'd seen one of the prequels when it came out and had no interest in Star Wars, never saw the other movies, but saw TFA and absolutely loved it. I could mention my mom, who never liked Star Wars - she even fell asleep at the theater in 1977 - but was amazed by TFA. But individual cases don't prove anything.

    • @theladyfromplanetx2847
      @theladyfromplanetx2847 7 лет назад +3

      But I've got other examples besides me and my friend. I was a freshman in high school when TPM came out and I overheard many of my female schoolmates talk about the film excitedly. One classmate who'd never seen the OT, saw TPM and absolutely loved it. Another schoolmate squealed for joy when she saw my Jar Jar Binks doll. I'm also on social media a lot, so I meet with other saga fans as well. Some of them liked TFA, some of them hated it.
