When I saw "A long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away..." on the screen I teared up. Star Wars is such a special franchise to me!
+ChubberJ It is to us all. We are all enjoying this together, it's amazing!
JCMsergox I wanted to yell but I just lost all my breath. I couldn't believe it.
I feared up both times that I've seen the movie. I'm sure I will during the third.
Gladly
+ChubberJ :) that's so great. i keep feeling like a noob or an outsider when i read all these heartfelt comments and 'i was 7/10/14 when a new hope came out' etc. i'm 26 and i watched all the movies for the first time a couple of years back. i was left with a star wars-y cornucopia of feelings for a while afterwards.. and the passion eventually faded, but i was always appreciative of it nonetheless. now with this revival, and having re-watched 1-6 and having seen 7 just once, the feelings are back, stronger than before. and, yet,.. i don't wanna be that one sudden fan. the one scoffed at by 'trve' fans. in this sense perhaps i am lucky, since i'm not from the us of a, and the legacy in my realm is weak. it's strange, thinking of all the old fans makes me wary of truly expressing my excitement.. but i was involved heart and soul in the experience of TFA, and i kept feeling slight trembles in my legs, on and off during the movie. now, i am left again with lingering feelings, hence the continuous soundtrack listening and the wish to re-watch all of them again. i had an urge to write this so i acted on it. sorries
The transporters with the Stormtroopers charging into battle was just so epic
Agreed
+ㄴㅅㄷ (igjug9813) In order to fight the bug, we must first understand the bug. We can ill-afford another Klendathu.
+Bandit Yeah that was soo epic :D
+Bandit And that Clone Finn was get blood on his mask :,D
Commander Hax RIP ;(
I remember the night I saw this in the theaters and I couldn't get the grin off my face when the Main Theme hit. The cheer of the crowd around me made it even better
Nick94956 agree with you
I remember yelling with the entire theater at the main title song, it was an amazing experience.
And everyone applauded in my theatre when Han Solo came in and said, " Chewie, we're home."
Everyone at the cinema applauded when this played
Mine to goes to show that all the haters/shammers who say this movie was a remake of A New Hope are full of shit. It really proves they are in a small group
I saw the movie 5 times in theaters, an applause at beginning and end every time (tho the fifth was a small group, but still!)
Never happens in Japan
Captain Jakemerica It really was a shit remake dude.
General Heavy I screamed with joy as tears spread down my face.
When I heard that music and saw the title, I wanted to cheer. And when the scroll read "Episode VII", that's when it became real for me. It's a new Star Wars movie. IT'S A NEW STAR WARS MOVIE!
Yea! 😊
+Stealthlock Soooo you went to the theater expecting to see Phantom Menace?
+Mickey Ortega I don't think you get the point.
+Stealthlock When it said Luke Skywalker has vanished, I was like "WTF?!"
+Stealthlock Wow! I was crying when the music started. It was so epic.
when the opening fanfare started blasting in the theater I definitely teared up
Me too....and clapping at the same time
+Dody Widodo Same as me ! :)
I agree, I want the theme to be as nostalgic as ever!
I'm a trekkie myself but I'm not a asshole online for no reason,
+annahill99 Damn I teared up to and clapped!!! :)
Screw people who think its weaker than the rest. I love that every Star Wars Title theme sounds a little different.
+MotionTransformer i agree with you100%
Just because the film was great, doesn't mean the soundtrack is great.
While each title theme is unique, they all have that strong rhythm/melody. This one doesn't.
+Alfred Jones
I would argue that the Prequel trilogy's opening fanfares were the weakest of all the movies thus far. This one is slightly better, but it will never be as good as the one to A New Hope.
+JackSpartan15 Clones and Sith reused the one from Phantom Menace, although they recorded a different ending once the crawl ends for Sith that never actually made it in the movie but you can hear it on the soundtrack.
Everyone erupted when this started in the theatre.
Same
Anyone go crazy when Han and Chewie entered the Falcon at your theater?
Merchaant Everyone went crazy when the Falcon showed up and the theatre went ape shit when Han and Chewie showed ip
+captainjjb84 oh Jesus, same thing happened over here. I REALLY want to watch this again now.
Merchaant Watching it again tomorrow and tueday
John Williams is so talented and mind-numbingly incredible it's almost scary.
Daniel C. John Williams is the best of course
i literally had tears in my eyes when the film started
same here, the moment i saw that intro i had to try my best to not cry lol
I was just stuned.
I was grinning wildly, with my inner child awakening! xD
I was rocking back and forth squealing like a little girl. Dignity.
get over yourself
"So...who talks first, I talk first or do you talk first?"
+CegeRoles Everyone in the theater laughed at that
+PlasmaBacon Even do Ep.7 is set to be the darkest to date, we still needed a laugh.
+PlasmaBacon Its a very american joke, in the uk not many laughed.
+CegeRoles that there and then made poe my favorite character in the movie that and the ass kicking he gave to basically the entire imperial navy lol
+CegeRoles I'm so glad they decided not to kill off the character like they had originally planned. We need this sort of character in these films! Although, Finn is a good runner-up for great lines.
oh man, that eeeeevil part beginning at 4:20 is just SO star wars. that brass is just pure Sith
that's the part they play when Kylo Ren's ship finally lands on the village and it's just so damn epic
+zolg56 Yeah it just zooms out of the village and you see Kylo Rens massive shuttle with the folding wings and its jet black just land on the tiny village and its fucking epic
🌿🔥blaze it
+Dedication SWTOR It's also a total cocktease because you can hear this awesome fast theme with those fast trumpets and low brass come in and then it just stops. It's such a bummer but sounds really great.
+Reed Pratt I think that is an aspect to this soundtrack that is disappointing...you kind of keep waiting for it to explode into that huge track that completely washes over you and so many times it totally starts revving up and then that's all you get. But I think it's more of a film problem than a Williams problem. Double-edged sword in a way cause part of what makes TFA so entertaining is how scenes are so short and to the point, but at the same time that meant it rarely let the music take control for a satisfying length of time...it always stopped abruptly, or it moved to another scene or something in the middle of the action. Drawback of JJ's style. You do get these standout moments like Kylo's ship landing or the X-wings coming in where it's like "Holy shit, John's still got the magic" but it was mostly the quieter stuff that allowed for the full John Williams experience.
I love that feeling when the Star Wars logo appears and the main theme begins as everyone is cheering. I hope that feeling lasts forever.:-)
Kaitlyn Grace I was the only one clapping when I went...
Kaitlyn Grace even though the ending of a movie is sad because you don't want it to end...the ending theme is nostalgic as fuck too
Kaitlyn Grace It will, every decade or so we get a new trilogy of Star Wars Movie's, I can't wait to watch these movies in the future with my kids, one day, and their kids to. ☺😀
When we went to watch this the whole theatre was cheering during the opening crawl
"TRAITOOORR!!!!" - Kylo Ren
God I love when he screamed that.
It made literally no sense at all though. Finn was a nameless soldier in a army of millions. Why would Kylo Ren be so bothered by someone so insignificant betraying the Order?
I think we can all admit that Kylo was sort of emotional right there. Dude just killed his dad, and got shot by essentially his uncle.
Ben knew who he was, if for no other then sending him (then looking him in the eyes) thru the Force on Jakku and this assumes Finn doesn't have a bigger backstory in the 1st Order as many theories suggest in which case Ben, a top ranking member of the Ren and 1st Order, would have known him from before.
How did it make no sense? Finn deserted the First Order, killed Stormtroopers on Takodana.. Then led the infiltration team into Starkiller base, took down the shields and paved the way for the Resistance to destroy Starkiller base. He also led the Resistance to the Thermal Oscillator to destroy the planet. Not only that, but Kylo saw him on Jakku and helped Hux identify him faster than their computers could as well as hunt him down. He helped the Resistance find Luke Skywalker, and get BB-8 to Leia.
EDIT: He ALSO helped Poe Dameron escape, the Resistance's best pilot and a good source of information on other Resistance plots.
So, in answer to your question... He's not "insignificant." In fact, he might be one of the most important characters in the Force Awakens in terms of things he actually accomplished.
Legotrocity666 well, there you go LOL there's no counter argument to that
Kylo Ren: Look how old you've become
John Williams: Fuck you

+Zapper I like that lightsaber sound affect. Wumksh!!
+otdoud "The map to Skywalker...we know you found it...and you are going to give it to the first order...."
+DJTerribilisHD The First Order rose from the Dark Side, you did not.
+Flench I'll show you the dark side
4:19 Kylo Ren big entrance gave me chills..
That scene made me a believer in Ren. Moving on from Vader was tough but Kylo was menacing and badass. Driver delivered a great performance
+Gifford Bishop Agreed! He's an interesting character. A different bad guy. Totally NOT like Vader. But I find Kylo Ren very intimidating in a mysterious way. Can't wait to see more of him and his backstory in episode VIII
+Gifford Bishop and of course, some people think he's a worst villain than anakin for some reason
+Euge Mussi When the score with him arriving gets me now. A new lord marching over the old empire to bring a new frontier is fantastic.
+Euge Mussi I love how he shows weakness, it really seperates him from vader, but he is still intimidating and very much a good villain. Just different that most of the villains we've had. He's also a lot younger than most of the villains we've had before so it makes sense that he is a lot more vulnerable.
When the STAR WARS.............EPISODE VII came up on screen with John FUCKING Williams I think I heard a collective gasping of nerdgasms. To be there in a theater with other SW fans just as passionate as you are, UNGH THE FEELS!
I freaked out
+hool10 I was definitely not gasping, but cheering my heart out with the rest of the theater.
Yea!!
+hool10 it was as if a million voices cried out in joy and were suddenly silenced
***** hell ya man
This gives me chills every time I hear it ,love Star Wars so much
ItsMeGeekTamara very cool video✨👍✨
Right on! XD
Some YTer mentioned there is a harp in the orchestra but i can't hear it. Does anyone know when the harp plays?
@@johnnyfilmsentinel466 LEGO
nothing will ever beat the feeling of walking to a cinema, then the lights turns off and then going from total silence to an epic melody seeing that epic logo as it fade to space time while.
I love this main theme! Its really bright with a great deal of fanfare.

Summer 2014 to December 2015, frequently having dreams that I was watching this movie in the cinema. And when the time came, it was EPIC.
Loved TFA, disappointed by TLJ, fell in love with TROS. And I can't believe it's been already two years from the end and six (!) years from this.

STAR WARS
EPISODE VII
THE FORCE AWAKENS
Luke Skywalker has vanished.
In his absence, the sinister
FIRST ORDER has risen from
the ashes of the Empire
and will not rest until
Skywalker, the last Jedi
has been destroyed.
With the support of the
REPUBLIC, General Leia Organa
leads a brave RESISTANCE.
She is desperate to fine her
brother Luke and gain his
help in restoring peace
and justice to the galaxy.
Leia has sent her most daring
pilot on a secret mission
to Jakku, where an old ally
has discovered a clue to
Luke's whereabouts . . . .
"Episode" should be lowercase F-
How did u remember that
+Matthew Hagerty
Star Wars 7 wookieepedia page has the entire paragraph in print
Am I the only one who slowly scrolls this comment along with the opening theme ?
+Deronn .J Nop, I did it in a Way that it would match with The music.
What I love about this piece is that you can listen the tension growing. You know something is about to come. You wait anxiously until... 4:17
And there you got. The main villain.
A perfect musical introduction.
That transition from bombastically loud to quiet at 2:12 is something only Maestro JW can pull off!!
When I listened to the soundtrack the first time, I definitely noticed that the Main Title sounded different/slightly weaker than what I'm used to, but in the theater I honestly didn't notice, so it's fine by me. I heard John Williams couldn't record/conduct with the LSO due to health concerns (I'm probably wrong as the comments explain) :(
+Diego M What health concerns?
+The Spirit of Classical Music (TSCM) Yeah, the brass is so strong and vibrant in the prequels, especially the trombone section!
+Diego M The LSO has stated on their website a while back (like a year or so) that it was due to scheduling conflicts with their touring schedule.
Chad Linder Thanks for that info. Didn't know it was due to scheduling conflicts. Do you think it might have been a Disney-influenced decision as well?
+Zack Briggs I didn't get that impression.
When the Starship started overshadowing the planet, that sudden realisation of "oh god, this is really happening"
Roses are red
Violets are blue
Why does everyone want to go back to jakku??
Underrated
Such a poet 🤌🏼
haha
lol so true
"Without John Williams, bikes don't really fly. Nor do brooms in Quidditch matches. Nor do men in red capes. There is no Force. Dinosaurs do not walk the Earth. We do not wonder. We do not weep. We do not believe. John, you take our films, many of them about our most impossible dreams, and you make them real for billions of people."
-Steven Spielberg on John Williams
My friend: what kind of music do you like?
Me: ergh... u wouldn’t get it
These soundtracks, in my opinion, are some of John Williams' most melodic, inspired, memorable and let alone amazing works. Just listen to Reys Theme or Farewell and The Trip. :D They are as *Star Wars* to me as any other one!
"Look how old you've become"

Safe travels.
0:26 always my favorite part of the main theme.
Me too
4:20 was used beautifully in the opening of TROS
That scene was perfect
1:42 That huge star destroyer though.. Epic
when i was in the cinema watching the force awakens for the first time, when i saw that scene i knew i was gonna like the movie
***** i feared that he would maybe be annoying, but he definitely isn't and that thumbs up he gave to finn won me over hahah
***** I'm in LOVEE with daisy, lupita and gwendoline ahhhhh
+Celina Bahunek its a shame captain phasma has so little to do with the movie. Hopefully her character is more thoroughly explored in the next movie.
KamiSam Yes, but we will find that out in a year and a half!! Can't wait for that long ugh
4:18 should be called "enter kylo ren" or something because that entrance with that music was too epic. people think of Imperial March when they see Vader so this could be kylo rens song
+Jeremy Schecter There's already a track in the score called 'Kylo Ren Arrives at the Battle.'
Matt Dymond yeah I know. But I didn't like it as much as this. I meant as a theme song for him
J Schecter Who knows? Maybe they'll just do what they did in Empire and give Kylo his own theme in The Last Jedi.
I got chills when I saw the scroll and heard this. Here is the huge kicker; I wasn't even born when the originals where first made. This was my first official Star Wars film in theaters and I'm proud of that. I will own every last Star Wars film soon. But, I do miss the Lodin Symphony Orchestra, but upon further listening, it fits the movie's feel, it's old but it's new at the same time. Bravo, John Williams. Bravo for making yet another masterpiece, like always
I always get chills when 1:44 starts playing
I really wish John Williams lives forever
The movie was everything I wanted from Star Wars. Thanks JJ
The fanfare might sound a little weak, but you gotta realize that everyone's trying to get back in the groove, and it's got that vibe.
murnavid This exactly. I wanted LSO so badly. They MADE that Star wars sound we know and love. This, is in the most bland way possible, "just okay" tbh.
"If so powerful you are, why leave?"
Wrong movie peasant
"I don't like sand"
FUCK WRONG MOVIE. SORRY GUYS
Nigel Cummingsworth how am i a peasant?
hmmm.... try again
No! Do or do not! There is no try!
I just love this scene and the music by John Williams makes it perfect. The moment where finn's helmet gets covered with blood and he looks around scared and confused and the music is building, then we see poe and he see's something coming from the sky and he's expression says it all: Something bad is coming, the ship emerges from the darkness and it's wings are closing and the music gets really dark and bombastic, so awesome. I love this movie.

I remember how I felt during this opening. I miss those days and those feelings.
I miss the famous Twentieth Century Fox Fanfare in Star Wars.
I'm glad they kept the Lucasfilm logo silent instead of using part of the SW score. And I'm so glad they did not put the Disney logo or Bad Robot logo up front.
anayeli sandoval - I wouldnt have minded Bad Robot (its best to place it right before Lucasfilm) but the Disney Intro would have been really out of place........
"Luke Skywalker has vanished"
When the world needed him most
Seeing this in the theater back in December 2015 is the most recent moment I feel nostalgic for.
Say what you will about this trilogy, but this scene is how you open a movie
I keep hearing people being disappointed by how this soundtrack is weak because it lacks some big name epic scores that will be remembered like how originals or prequels have it, but frankly, I disagree, this soundtrack is designed so very much to compliment the film, to work in conjunction with the film to create exactly the right emotions in those scenes and that is exactly what scores are suppose to do, scores are not meant to overshadow a film - the force awakens is a film that comes out in a different kind of movie style than the originals or the prequels, the way the film and score works together should be different - I love this soundtrack and I love this score because it does exactly what scores should do, play right into the emotions people should feel when they see the film, scores aren't design to overtake a film or make it some big theme, and really I think because people are expecting some big theme, somehow it's a bad track without it? no. John Williams' music is on point, fits perfectly into the film, and even tho people say there's no defining music, I can easily name 2 new musical beats that I love, both Rey's theme and the Resistance march are phenomenal and define the film for me, honestly I think lots of people are looking for things that aren't suppose to be there and making mountains out of mole hills
+BetaArtemis
I agree, I think actually there is much more subtlety, nuance, and emotional complexity in this score than in the previous ones!
I just don't understand why the opening crawl music in this movie sounds so....hollow....compare it to the prequels and you'll know what I mean. It's like a different orchestra or something.....it's weird....
I think the music in this one needed to take a bit more of a backseat since everything else in the movie was so spot on. It still does shine where it needs to though. The acting is so much better than any other star wars movie though so you don't quite need the movie to hold your hand through the emotions enough, and you wouldn't want it to overshadow their amazing performances.
It is a different orchestra. Disney hired some Freelancers for some reason.
Well said.
Honestly. i am watching star wars the force awakens first. so i am a Rey generation not Luke-Leia-Han.
As a new fans, i love the movie. i get it why people so in love with STAR WARS. The main stories is same, all about hope, finding humanity, fighting for the bad guy.
And the soundtrack is perfect for me. complete all the scene from the movie.
*pardon my english*
It wouldn't be Star Wars without John Williams!

The who creating this without a doubt a the MASTER OF CHARACTERISTIC
Loved this movie so much. It's a shame about the sequels but at least this was incredible.
2:04 This would’ve been an amazing theme for General Hux, if he was in Battlefront 2
I will never forget the feeling I had when I heard this opening theme in the theater and saw the opening crawl. It's the only time any movie has brought me to tears.
1:17 It's at this moment that everyone fills with excitement and wonders what's going to happen next.
When the movie began it reminded me of I saw episode 4 with my dad. We got it on dvd for like 4 bucks and I was so excited. This brought back that same feeling. I was happily sobbing when in big yellow letters "STAR WARS" came on screen. I was sitting next to my dad the same way I had been nearly a decade before. Star Wars is the best thing ever!
dude i love the part at 1:45
I Miss The Fox Fanfare Before Lucasfilms Intro

I hope john Williams scores at least episode 8
+ZACHxFULLER I know I meant I hope he scores at least another episode
+Nadhir Haouanoh Yeah, and hopefully with the London Symphony Orchestra in Abbey Road Studios!
So who would best replace John Williams? You know, when he decides to retire or...be one with the force
Hans Zimmer maybe?
Michael Giacchino could be a worthy successor to the Star Wars theme.
chills every time I hear this wow !
same
This was when Star Wars became popular again. I still remember how hyped everybody was at school.
I'll never forget watching my little brother watching the scrolling text and losing his tiny mind in the movie theater, which was filled to capacity that day. His reactions alone made this the best Star Wars moment of my life.
The prequels had the best opening theme
They sucked ! The original movies had a way better opening theme
+Dylan Morgan We all get that the prequels were bad movies...but that doesn't mean that they did everything wrong. The music was fantastic.
+Dylan Morgan yes the prequels sucked, but the opening music was the best
+TheMusicMaster I don't know about the opening music, but in my opinion, "Duel of the Fates" is the greatest piece of music in the entire Star Wars saga.
+ZukoHalliwell Qui Gon's Noble End is really good too, the first half anyway. But the best will always be the Bespin Duel score imo.
I get chills every time I hear this song.
TUUUNDUN DUNDUN DUUUUUUUUUUUN, Kylo Ren's theme is wicked in all these music piece.
May the force be with you my friends....Star Wars à jamais dans nos coeurs !!
Saw this in an IMAX theater with awesome speaker system. Just amazing.
Im pissed off this film was spoiled for me before i watched it. Im literally preparing myself for the next star wars movie so that isn't spoiled. If i cant get midnight release tickets, I'm hibernating in my bedroom and not using my phone until i go to see the movie.
People would just shout out spoilers where ever I went
Bro, if you want to avoid spoilers, you have to stay off ALL social media at least 2 months before the film comes out. That's what i did with Facebook. And then for the week leading up to it, I was off instagram because the explore page has all those trending tags and shit. And do t read comment sections to ANY videos either because Fucking idiots go around on random videos and post spoilers. Hans death was spoiled for me through the comments section on here. It pissed me off. When Episode 8 comes in May 2017, I may just get off social media for 3 months. No way am I letting some idiot or article spoil something for me. Especially with all the stuff that could be revealed or happen with the next film.
+joey flores I heard the spoilers from people in real life :(
Do what I did, stay off the internet and don't read any spoilers or look up anything about Star Wars until you actually see it.
+MrTripleKill3 that's what i did, as soon as the red carpet happened i was on internet blackout until the 17th
It's beautiful.. the start of a new era
*Star Wars bursts on screen
*Cries from the pain of the Nostalgia gut punch
Thank you JJ Abrams for reviving the franchise. And most importantly, thank you John Williams, even though your in your 80s, you still made such an awesome soundtrack for the new movie. Thanks for making it!
I loved this movie and I do think care what anyone else says. Seeing it for the first time, among a cheering crowd of people who were just as excited as I was was one of my best memories of 2015 and it will stay with me forever.
Can really hear the Holst influence here again

Gerben the overall plot of the prequels was pretty good. The problem was the cringy things like Anakin's creepy relationship with Padme and the inclusion of Jar Jar Binks.
Who recently saw Rouge One? Cause I did. AND IT WAS SO FREAKING INCREDIBLE!!!!
Xander Wardwell-Gaw but everyone dies, and also it was pretty much all an action movie. No story.
well they needed to die, how else do you explain the absence of all these characters from A New Hope that follows immediately after. As for the story well again we already know the story because a New Hope
Xander Wardwell-Gaw I did
Xander Wardwell-Gaw Darth Vader's ending scene, BEST SCENE IN THE WHOLE SAGA
That Darth Vader scene just shows we need a spinoff about him! His early days in the Empire (seriously we always just see stuff that takes place not long before A New Hope, lets get something that follows soon after Revenge of the Sith)
Forever listening to John William's Star Wars soundtracks!
I love listening to these soundtracks and remaking the movie scenes in my head according to the exact parts of the music
"This will begin to make things right"
It felt so satisfying hearing 0:41 again
The first 30 minutes of this movie is excellent.
Rebekka Th. And the rest wasn't?
Rebekka Th. do you think on 1:09
I will always love star wars and the dark side and may the force be with all of you guys thanks jihn Williams and to everyone that was making star wars
This movie is a masterpiece, let alone a song. It is a really great movie.
3:06 my favorite part
Sounds like Prequel Star Wars Music. It's pretty good.
***** I dunno exactly. It's a part of the music that sounds like the marches from Ep. 1 and Ep. 3.
***** yeah you're right.
God I love this movie
Happy Star Wars Day and May the 4th be with you all!!!!
I started to cry when I saw the start of the Force Awakens. It brings me such joy
I'm 19 years old this is the second star wars film I have ever seen in theaters. it was incredibley heartwarming and knowing they have two more movies and rogue one to feature Darth Vader just is making even better. thank you Disney for taking our beloved franchise and not run it into the ground. thank you :)
These are five of my favorite films so far in The saga!
1. Empire Strikes Back
2. The Force Awakens
3. Rogue One: A Star Wars Story
4. Return of the Jedi
5. Revenge of the Sith
4:44 When Kylo Ren steps out of his Command Shuttle, so fucking epic.
London Symphony orchestra should have been used, doesnt have that diamond sharp sound.
+Dav Mac41 The soundtrack is absolutely disappointing mainly due to sound quality. For the FIRST TIME in Star Wars movie history, the London Symphony Orchestra wasn't used to record the soundtrack. John Williams conducted a "freelance" orchestra and recorded the score in a Sony recording studio. If you listen to the TFA's Main Title theme, it sounds more digital than acoustic, unlike the LSO, which recorded in Abbey Studios, providing a much more grandiose and regal "in-your-face" experience in the prequel and OT versions. Just listen to for example, the Phantom Menace's Main Title then listen to TFA's. Which one sounds better? (NOTE: I own the TFA CD)
+Zack Briggs I hope someday in the future, we will have the chance to listen to the new score from LSO...
erim birol I emailed the LSO saying I hope they record the Force Awakens soundtrack, haha!
+Zack Briggs Maybe we should start a petition :)
erim birol How would we go about that? I'd be down haha!
I have never been in a theatre where every seat was full and where each person cheered at the movies opening. The atmosphere of a new star wars movie is amazing
I sat down in that seat in the cinema and waited - and when the curtain opened and I heard the music play, a shiver ran through me head to toe. Yesterday I got the BluRay and sat down here in front of my TV and it happened right again. And now that I fired it up on youtube it happend again. Either it's me being weird again or John Williams being absolutely brillaint.
