Ok, say what you want about Rey, but her theme is absolutely epic
It's very fitting to be honest, since the movie seven has "A New Hope" written all over it's face. It has that hopeful air to it.
It’s my fav star wars piece I love it sm
That's because it was made by John Williams not the Disney writers
Good stuff
@@tannerjay They were the Lucas film writers not the Disney writers. I guess you’d also call the Mandalorian writers the Disney writers.
“I’m Rey”
“Rey who? Who are your people?”
“I don’t have people. I’m alone”
“Rey Solo”
Lol
Bucs fan 20 It was a joke from Solo
Haha this is a good one.
Bucs fan 20 you know what’s coming so r/woosh
This kinda sad when we think about love between ben and rey
Prequels, OT and Sequels have one thing together: awesome music by John Williams
I did a rewatch of the prequels and sequels recently, and posted my thoughts on Facebook. Even if I was critical of the movie, I could always find something positive to say about the music.
I think it goes Prequels then OT then Sequels all are great though
Got that right!
Except Rogue One which is just as awesome
No doubt whatsoever. Greatest composer to ever do it
I honestly love the three stages of the main melody at 0:32, 1:40 and 2:13.
It starts out young and adventurous, and then starts evolving into a much more stronger and serious tone. Say what you want about this character, but you can't deny her theme is one of the best
My favourite stage 1:40, its damn beautiful
@@splintergectornathan9045 YEAH AND PERFECT
Me too!!
@@Galaxy38875 My life would be so empty without John Williams
not sure I have ever seen anyone shitting on John Williams work in the disney trilogy, everybody else's though... (the writers might have deserved the shitting)
"who are you?"
"Im Rey"
"Rey who?"
"Rey shadow legends"
Rey shadow legends is the most ambitious multiplayer game on mobile. It is available for free on the app store. There are 300 different champions to choose from. To help you complete your collection, use code REY to get 50,000 silver and an exclusive champion.

That's impossible, i'm not saying we don't have excellent writers (for example, the novelist James Luceno) but John WIlliams' music is simply perfect
A prequel fan here. It is one of my favourite tracks in star wars
I hate the movies but the music is fire
I love the prequels to!! They’re so underrated
Why does being a prequel fan matter?
TRAITOOR
@@argo9721 Few prequel fans hate the theme and few is just 50/50, cuz its coming from Sequels
This piece really stood out for me in the movie.
+ronariverah same for me. and i cant point out why, but it reminds me hedwigs theme and its bit unfocused, but i am humming it all day long and i downloaded OST specifically for this.

Say what you want about Rey, but her theme is hands down one of the best soundtracks in Star Wars
Unfortunately her character is 1D
ewwww dude what ?! did ya heard the emperor theme ?

@@cla_6 He said _one_ of the best. Learn how to read.
@@cla_6 funny enough Rey’s theme actually contains the emperor theme lol
The beginning of this theme is just perfect. It has this sense of curiosity, yet at the same time familiarity
The first flute notes at 0:00 are the Emperor's theme sped up, which foreshadows Rey's heritage
Roses are red, violets are blue

I don't care what people say about her, at that point Rey is me being like a little kid and I loved it.
That's crazy that this movie came out 5 years ago
I know
Now when I watch force awakens, it doesn’t feel like that good of a movie. However, I do remember absolutely loving it in the theaters on opening night. It might have been because of this song and the fact that we hadn’t had a new Star Wars movie in so long.
@@omieg89 it is a good movie, probably the best out of the new trilogy honestly
right i just watched the whole star wars saga 2 weeks ago and instantly fell in love with it i even finished mando

lachlan armstrong totally agree. That’s the kind of stuff that movies are supposed to make you feel.
Even now. That sense of optimism and splendor. You're catching a glimpse of this distant world, this starry eyed girl for the first time. It's magic.

Rey's theme is the only truly memorable track, and it fits more Harry Potter than Star Wars IMHO...
I'm just here feeling nostalgic for the days when Rey was just a nobody
Here filling your pain too bro
Yeah those were good days... i'm kinda happy with what they did in TROS but leaving her be a nobody would have been awesome as well
me too
So... The Last Jedi? TFA seemed to want her to be established as someone's descendant.
yes!! it legit takes away all the actual meaning behind it to just ‘oh her grandfather is really powerful that’s why’ and actually makes her even more of a mary sue because now she has no personality at all
WHY DOES EVERYONE WANNA GO BACK TO JAKKU
Because unlike Vader, they like sand.

+MrPete8680 Where have I see that?
i may not be exactly the biggest fan of rey as a character that much (i think she's fine but i've never been a fan of the main characters in star wars personally) but this theme is perfect for her honestly. luke and anakin's are bombastic like them obi wan's is mystical and rey's is small and humble. it's full of mystery and longing for adventure just like herself. it's brilliant.
Bro since when does obi wan have a theme(except the series)
@@balanchukoth2622 it’s been a while but I think I might’ve been thinking about the force theme which iirc was basically intended to be obi wan’s.
I remember going to the cinema on December 18th 2015, listening to this in that big room gave me chills. Now in The Rise Of Skywalker times, it isn't the same :'(
yep lol, because of that this song makes me nostalgic about 2015's christmas

Let's hope we get some sort of a revival for this like the prequels.
Didn’t really enjoy the sequels but this theme still gives me chills
I have no desire to ever watch these. But yeah can’t get enough.
My thoughts exactly
Exactly
I mean it's John Williams. It's not his fault the Disny movies were bad. His music is amazing either way.
@Raj nostalgia is a big reason people like the OT
This piece captures the tone of the movie so well.
+trivipesnipe It also feels kinda Christmas-y to me as well....
+trivipesnipe It has a real optimistic but also bittersweet sense of adventure.
+Joshua M. Patton John Williams did make the home alone theme
+trivipesnipe music is what make the tone of a movie, well a big part of it.
+trivipesnipe This piece DEFINES the tone of the movie.
In ten or fifteen years we will be nostalgic about Star Wars 7. I bet.
No.
I don’t care what the haters say. I think that Rey is a very relatable and human character.
At least most of us can agree her theme is awesome tho, right?
Edit: I would kindly ask that if you insist on criticizing Rey, please do it in a constructive and respectful manner. Thank you.
Of course!
Can someone explain why so many people hate Rey? I really don’t get it. I will admit I wish that she would have gotten more development in some spots, but overall I think she had good development. Some mistakes were made in the Sequels, but I think that Lucasfilm did a decent job with them.
According to Google, the definition of a Mary Sue is: “a type of female character who is depicted as unrealistically lacking in flaws or weaknesses”
So if Rey is a Mary Sue as so many claim, than can someone please explain these things:
1. Rey experiencing and struggling with loneliness and abandonment. (A very realistic and tragic issue for many)
2. Rey constantly feeling as though she is nothing, and trying to suppress that feeling. (At least, until the end)
3. Rey being either too down-to-earth and trusting, or too naive.
Additionally, I have several pieces of evidence that debunk many of your various complaints:
1. “Rey beat Kylo without even handling a Lightsaber”: The only reason Rey won was because Kylo was unbalanced due to him killing his father (as Snoke pointed out) Had that not happened, she would have most likely died. (And yes, this is the official reason, look it up.)
2 “Rey did everything perfectly”: No. Rey may have been skilled in some areas, but she was far from being perfect. (At least in the beginning) When Rey attempted to fly the Millennium Falcon, she had a very hard time handling it. (Not to mention the fact she caused massage property damage and barely made it out without a scratch. Tell me a Mary Sue would do that.)
3. “Rey never learned or grew as a character.” False. Rey attempted to turn Ben back to the Light Side, but Ben was unwilling to turn. From that lesson, Rey learned that you can’t trust everyone and sometimes people are unwilling to change.
But the most important thing she learned of all was that she was not useless and had meaning and a purpose in life, and finally accepted who she truly was.”
4. “Rey was able to use powerful Force Abilities without training.” Okay, but answer me this, why can Grogu use a Force Choke on others when he’s only a child? If he can do that without training, then why can’t Rey do those things too. I mean, I think it’s possible for individuals to inherit certain abilities from others. But they do still have to master them. (Plus, when Rey mind-tricked that Stormtrooper, she didn’t get it the first time)
Anakin was able to do some incredible things with barely any training too, such as guessing all the images the Jedi tested him with without seeing them, or blowing up an entire Trade Federation Battleship.
And what about Luke? He blew up the freaking Death Star just by reaching out to Obi-Wan’s spirit. Does this make Anakin and Luke Mary Sues/Gary Stus too?
Lastly, I would like to point out that several years ago, you people were totally against the Prequels, and now look at you! You’re all saying it’s the best thing to ever happen!
So what’s it gonna take before you start saying the same things about the Sequels too? Why can’t you just be thankful for what you’re given, instead of criticizing every single thing? Just let Star Wars be Star Wars and let people enjoy it.

+gifty sands it's that fool
Yet another SW masterpiece. John Williams delivers again!
İ dont know why but i just dont like the musics
+zingodoom There was never any doubt in my mind. The world will truly be losing a miraculous composer when he dies. Truly a modern day Beethoven.
+Star Wars the reason you dont like the musics, is not that JW lost the mumbojumbo but JarJarAbrams and his sound editing minions are stupid enough the destroy Space Opera Melodramatic Star Wars movie way. Just remember binary sunset (ep4) as you close your eyes to remember you can hear Force Theme, or try to remember Emperor's Arrival you can hear that terrifying Imperial March. Now watch or try to remember any scene from ep7, and try to remember a song any song. If you have good eidetic memory only piece of track you can remember is Rey's theme. And anyone any other director could use this pick so much better but abrams couldnt. Even OST is great another JWilliams masterpiece but without proper movie it's just senseless rhyme.
Gotta say I agree. I think the editing really harmed the music
+Erol Mazhar Aksoy anyome judging this after a few day is a idiot... originaly the star wars score was judge as overly dramatic... simplistic melodie childish like... etc... it took YEARS to get on. same will happend here. it is still a masterpiece...just not the one people expected as always.
Rey's theme was easily the best thing to come out of the sequels. It's just such a beautiful piece that has me still listening to it 5 years later.
How is this already nostalgic to me?

I’m getting nostalgic for going to see episode 7 in cinema when I was 9
Truly one of the best things I’ve ever experienced
i feel sorry for you
It's crazy to think that I already feel nostalgia for TFA. Going to see it on opening night with my family all dressed up in costumes, super hyped to see a new Star Wars movie in theaters. It's my favorite moviegoing experience ever, and TFA is one of my all-time favorite Star Wars movies partly because of that.

For those who dislike Rey: John Williams' continued insistence on writing music for this franchise is BECAUSE of her. Sure, he has helmed Star Wars' music for some 4 decades now, but in one of his recent interviews, he specifically mentioned that he has fallen in love with Ridley's character, and he wants no one else to write music for her but himself. And it shows with this theme: there are few in existence that sounds as unique and whimsically inspired as this.
I went to a concert in which he conducted several of his own pieces, and I heard him say that himself.
I'm not a huge fan of the character because every scene she's in makes her seem invincible or without any discernible flaws. She knows everything about flying the Falcon, trains herself to use the Force, becomes very skilled at using a lightsaber, etc. Look at Wolverine for instance - he's an invincible character in film but he has different kinds of flaws. How interesting is a character when they're good at everything?
I'm sure they'll do justice to Rey in the future films, but right now her character is off to a somewhat shaky start. But her theme is fantastic, that's undeniable.
LordStarscream100 to me Wolverine was always a boring character. Theres a billon of x-men characters that are better than him.
motor4X4kombat While he is very overused in the film series, what I'm saying is his invincibility is handled very well in the film. He's given flaws, he's not always in control of every situation that he's involved in.
LordStarscream100 i don't care. At least rey have a likeble persona, Wolverine is just a grumpy steven Wright. Also You want to know a real mary sue? go and watch cinderella 2015
motor4X4kombat What do you mean you don't care? I don't understand what you're trying to argue now.
As of now, Rey basically is a mary sue. I think that's pretty undeniable. If you think otherwise that's fine, to each his own.
The cinematography in this scene is fantastic. I also just love the way she slides down that sand hill :D Truly classic Star Wars.
+Hatted Sandwich 'The Scavenger' played in that scene.
+Hatted Sandwich without being cheesy and absurd! it is totally believable!
+DeltaSpartan141 Alright smart arse. It's basically the same track ;)
+Hatted Sandwich same I love that we find out so much about Rey before she even speaks a word. We see her daily routine, her struggle and her hope, great film making when you can get all that across without the main character saying a word
+Hatted Sandwich Whoa, no need for that hostility. He gave you good, respectful information.
I can't believe its nearly been a decade since this came out its crazy as shit how time flies
I love this song, it feels like a old childhood dream come to life. The chimes are like remembering a part of our story so long ago and buried in our past that we forgot, and then the flute is like upon returning it became new but it still felt so familiar. Then as the song grows and the strings come to the forefront we become completely lost in that story.
I bet daisy is happy she has her own theme, i wish i had a theme composed by john williams
me too bro wouldnt that be great
TO have john williams to do anything that involves me would be a dream
Me too, but then again, since john captures personality so well, i think my theme may be somewhat uninteresting :/
i would take the jurassic world theme for mine.

My favorite out of the soundtrack. Loved how it played during end credits. Rey is going to be so iconic and I love how she was considered the 'newbie' out of Boyega and Oscar Issac. Usually it's Oscar Issac that steals the movie (he was AMAZING AND AWESOME THOUGH), but this time it was Ridley that stole the entire film. She surprised us, she surprised as all. And it brought a smile to my face when I heard a little boy behind me say he wants a Rey action figure. This warms my heart. Such a terrific film, of course with its flaws but damn, I loved it. Definitely seeing it again. Rey is bae.
she totally nailed it. My favourite character is still Poe but Ridley totally acted amazingly.
+Cleostabtra agreed
I've seen it twice now, and I gotta say, everyone was outstanding. Daisy was exceptional, but I was also completely blown away by Adam Driver as Kylo Ren. He was superb.
Rey was awesome I loved her. Ridley is also supremely talented this was her first major role and she hit every damn scene, feel and line of dialogue. Finn and Isaac were also fucking awesome and all of their chemistry was so refreshing and great to see after three prequel movies devoid of any chemistry and emotion. Rey and Finn have bright futures ahead of them I look forward to their futures in Star Wars and other films Isaac too but he's a more established actor already.
+Cleostabtra She was such a Mary Sue, incredibly powerful out of nowhere. The best character in my opinion was Finn followed by Poe and Kylo Ren. Her acting was very good though
Every Star Wars movie love it or hate it, has at least one BRILLIANT piece of music
True
Although, in some parts of the phantom menace that seemed like they should have been scored were not watch it again and you'll see
Battle of heroes for Revenge and Across the stars for Clones
+Blue Whovian Really? What about the March of the Resistance or Kylo Ren's theme? I largely agree with your statement, but I thought while first seeing the movie that those motifs were pretty iconic when they showed up.
***** Hm. Well, I have a really strong musical ear so I'm always paying attention to music, interesting or not. That may be part of it!
The nostalgia… Hearing it back when the movie released was something.

Listening this theme you can get an idea about Rey. Adventure, youth, innocence, sweetness and fierceness.
And a sense of mystery! As in, "There is just something about her..."
A Disney Princess
Well you got that wrong didn't you haha
This song certainly captures those qualities. It is too bad the terrible writing and direction the actress was forced to follow produced a dumpster fire of a story where not one, not a single one, of these qualities, was present in the character as portrayed on screen. Running away is not adventure. Cynicism is not youth. Selfishness is neither innocent nor sweet, and blandly able to do everything and overcome all threats with no trouble and no sacrifice is not fierce. It is boring.
All hail Palpatine!

No matter which trilogy gets hated the most the prequels or the sequels we can’t lie that what brings all Star Wars fans together is the music John Williams made
Here to celebrate after today's Star Wars Celebration announcement that Daisy Ridley/Rey will be returning to a Star Wars movie!
Yes! I look forward to whatever we see next for her and hopefully Finn too in The New Jedi Order! And if they bring back this theme that will be incredible!
He really can capture that magical, Wide eyed vibe to Rey's character. We all know John Williams capture magic perfectly (Harry Potter)
John Williams is life
John Williams is a genius.
For me it sounded a bit like Harry Potter :)
I LOVE this song!!!

Without John Williams, there is no Star Wars music.

+Isaac Anderson Animations they are so epic though
As much as I’m a hardcore Prequel and Clone Wars fan, out of all of the Star Wars songs, this is by far one of, if not my favourite.
Whenever I hear this song: It's always like a new gen fan is getting introduced into an old school franchise and starting to like that franchise.
Sith are Red 🔴
Jedi is Blue 🔵
Lukes theme is great
Rey's one is too
Rey's got a theme just as beautiful as her.
I'M SO HAPPY JOHN IS BACK FOR OBI-WAN KENOBI SERIES 😭😭
So much promise
This trilogy had so much promise
Ikr; I loved TFA, but the rest of the sequels buggered everything up. Ruining Luke, demoting Finn to a side character among other things. I maintain that TFA by itself is a brilliant film though
Although I’m not the biggest fan of Rey as a character, I have to admit, her theme is definitely worthy of a Star Wars protagonist.
Her theme is literally just a sense of WONDER & ADVENTURE!
This theme makes me grieve for the Rey we never got to see. It made her seem like such an interesting potential character we could see, but we never did. None of the main characters in the sequels were actual characters, they were just plot devices. The three movies spent so long trying to explain their incoherent plots and logic jumps against the backdrop of two separate directors in a playground fight that there was never any actual time for character development, or even character explanation. The reason people hate Rey as a character, in my opinion, is because she isn't, she's not a character, she's a plot device masquerading as a character, and it makes me sad
Why not? She was a new character that people just couldn't accept just cos the writing was poor, like the prequels tbf
@@footballfan321-xt3ku the characters in the prequels (many of them) had so much more going for them than Rey. Not in theory, Try could have been just as cool in theory, but the way the movie played out, Rey had nothing cool about her wheras the prequels characters still had a lot of cool things about them
@@Jordblitz I guess so but now I'm gonna say something a lot of people won't agree with but igues sometimes it's okay to have an unpopular opinion, everyone loves the originals and rarely criticise them but they were kinda boring (in terms of action and special effects) compared to the prequels and sequels even the lightsaber battles where boring imo all that they really had for them was how detailed they were in terms of story and they were very story driven other than that they just don't have that more modern day vibe aboutthem (but this is probably because of the advancements in technology tbf).

I'll miss you, Rey.
Yea, spice runner.
Meanwhile, babu frik : heeeee heeeeeeeeeeee
at least she isn't dead
That was Poe's line bro
@@mclee0905 I wish she was she's a garbage character
This soundtrack captures the child like innocence of Rey perfectly
Actually I thought it captured her loneliness at the beginning of the film when she was first introduced, living in that junked out AT-AT. But now that you mention it, you're right, it captures her innocence perfectly too.
watching the sequels is worse than being anally raped
@@erichoffman2243 also this musics backs are all high and kind of grandiosity.. so cool
u mean mary sue
Reek well...I‘m pretty sure being raped is way worse than watching a movie that Star Wars „fans“ just hate because its not how they want it to be.
I love this song, I convinced my band teacher to let us play this, of course, he said yes and he was actually thinking of letting us play this anyway, and since we have a concert of May the 4th it would be perfect
SHE’S BAAAACCCKKK!!
Episode 1 - Duel of the Fates
Episode 2 - Across the Stars
Episode 3 - Anakin's Betrayal
Episode 4 - Princess Leia's theme
Episode 5 - Imperial March
Episode 6 - Luke and Leia's theme
Episode 7 - Rey's theme
Episode 8 - Rebellion is Reborn
Episode 9 - The Rise of Skywalker
Mostly an F1 fan Episode 3: Battle of the Heroes
That’s the only one I disagree with.
@@Myvera Fair enough. It could've been either for that one. Revenge of the Sith is the best SW score in my view
It took me 5 seconds to realise that it wasn't the titles of the movies
Episode 3: Battle of the Héroes*
Episode 6: "The Emperor“
“who are you”
“I’m Rey”
“Rey who”
“Reydio Gaga 👨🏻”
Aidan M never realized how much that emoji looks like Freddie
stolen
That was gay
@@taeseong9944 Yeah no shit nothing is original nowadays
Beetle Pimp so was Freddie Mercury, what’s your point
Rey Skywalker has a wonderful theme and thank you John for the theme.
Best sequel theme by far
And it’s just Rey
Rey Palpatine@@tylerpinniger9958
@@tylerpinniger9958 Rey Skywalker :) she took the name from her masters as she never had any people (personally I would've loved Rey Solo but I like Skywalker too), I feel like she more than earned it
Love or hate the sequels, the music and sound design was incredible!
2:10 The key change gave me goosebumps.
Most people do not notice :)
That key chance is genius. And man, John really knows where exactly to put them AND what key to go to.
Infamous I always picture that part to reappear later in this saga, for something really intense. Maybe a fight sequence?
Thanks for pointing that out. I haven't really focused on this piece and hadn't noticed it until now.
+Infamous Is it bad I don't like the key change? I have nothing against John Williams, but it just didn't work for me. I'm not trying to convince anyone they shouldn't like it, and I wish I could like it myself, but it just sounds kind of clumsy to me. Also, key changes are never graceful in my ear.
It sounds so magical, so different for Star Wars, but so perfect
Yeah it sounds like Harry potter material
AJ 1998 my exact thoughts when I first heard this. Turns out John Williams composer the music for Harry Potte which I actually did not know
@@monojuice really you didn't know?
R c nope
It’s not different it’s literally palpatine’s theme sped up
This theme makes me cry because it SOUNDS LIKE THE WASTED POTENTIAL OF THE SEQUELS. This music was the perfect setup for something great, and it was squandered.
I love Rey's theme.
I instantly felt for Rey because of her lowly, lonely, and exploitative situation. Anakin and Luke had baller lives compared to her circumstances. Seriously, Luke's struggle was that he was bored. I myself can't believe I just criticized an element of ANH in comparison to this film. They really needed to nail the main character of this trilogy and they absolutely did that.
Well, Anakin was being exploited even more. He was a slave. Rey's struggle is one of loneliness. Anakin couldn't wait to get off Tatooine, while Rey wanted to stay on Jakku in the vain hope that her family would return.
+Cybermat47 well at least rey had more emotion and likablelity than anakin....and she didn't say this shit watch?v=2tLf1JO5bvE
+Zane Whitney I fell for for her even before I SAW the movie.
Anakin was a freaking Slave
He went through Slave Markets...
Rey is just lonely,and went out finding Scraps to get food with free will
YES ! thats what i am thinking of her
RIP Carrie Fisher
her mother died a day after her
wait what?
1:40 playing at my wedding entrance!
1:35 to be exact
Congratulations
i will play imperial march
This theme sounds quite mellow.
Just finished episode IX and now I can't get this out of my head
Which is logical as it's just Palpatine's theme slowed down.
Ryan Waasdorp is it really?
@@JPQFilms No lol. Ryan doesn't understand music.
@@Diax1324 if you slow it down, you can hear a faint similarity with Palpatine's theme. And I never said I'm an expert at music.
john williams is a genius
geniusness isn't a word and no it wont there's plenty of musical geniuses in the world
Nick Knowles No he isn’t , he’s a god .
Man this takes me back to 2015 if ur watching this in 2021 ur a legend
Ngl, it feels like I'm playing an Fantasy RPG, and I just got put in an establishing cutscene you're perspective is being switched between first person, walking, and third person in a drone shot, as the side character guides you throughout the magical village/kingdom that you have to protect in the game.
0:00 You're walking across the bridge and able to see the first few houses
0:13 A high angle shot follows your character, as you're exposed to the residents and their vast different animals
0:23 You return in first person, following the guide and moving around the side of a cliff face
0:31 A moving drone shot shows more of the citizens
0:46 Big animal goes across gets put in view, and then falls down to capture the amazement of your character looking back at the animal
1:00 The camera switches to a shot of you walking up stairs to a large gate, the guide still talking
1:09 The guide says something that intrigues your character to stop before the guide opens the gate
1:14 A time lapse of the village/kingdom building over time in a rotating panoramic shot
1:22 You walk through the gates, still talking with the guide as you two move on a path below a thick canopy, the camera moving along behind you
1:28 You come into view of a waterfall that collects into a river below the canyon ridge. Birds fly through the mist and rainbow glare on the camera
1:32 First person again, you're walking along the ridge of a canyon that surrounds the river the waterfall flows into, still talking with the god damn guide about the village/kingdom's lore
1:40 The top of the Mayor/head-chief/king's house/mansion/whatever is revealed behind cliff/hill in the canyon, and the camera shows the amazed expression on your characters face, the guide chuckles to the sight of it.
1:51 You begin walking faster towards the palace thingy, a birds eye view-on an angle, follows you, raising higher and focusing more on the royal house.
2:12 The camera is following you two as you and the guide as you descend the cliff/hill, seeing more of the guards, gardens, and animal paddocks that are visible to you.
2:22 First person another bloody time, and both you, and the guide are amazed by the sight of the house's entrance, looking left and right to the guards overlooking you, and the carriages being pulled in and out by horses/whatever the hell horse like magic animal is in there
2:32 Third person, and the camera is behind you again, as both of you slowly ascend the steps towards the front doors of the palace
2:39 You open and see the king managing scribes and marketers (idk, he's just talking to people with scrolls and books), and the queen and royal butler is try to gain control of the children running in circles with wooden swords and dolls (ok, it's medieval from that). First person of course.
2:44 The King and Queen notice the guide, as they are close friends, and then you. They greet each other, and the guide looks at you, motioning you to begin your speech
2:49 The camera faces you from a side angle, your character begins the message of how some danger and/or boogeyman figure is going to attack/destroy the kingdom/village
2:56 The camera switches to the King and Queen, their previous expressions now gone as you continue
3:07 (Not because the video turns black, but bc the music finally fades) Queue flashback + another song, of the antagonist and his minions/army destroying the place you were from, idk.
The vision in me head ends there.. I should probably take this whole English Major thing seriously now :/
This song feels like curiosity, loneliness, and hope, which I think describes Rey really well. I love John Williams!
+202cardline I always think of her agility too with the little tunes that start the track and dance around the main theme!
And I love how the track starts off so small, and the first time you don't get the full version right away. Instead it kinda starts to back off, the melody moves down and doesn't sound like a fully "heroic" theme yet, which reminds me of Rey's own reluctant heroism. I noticed that's also the version of the theme that we hear when she's making the bread at the beginning, on the flute :)
And when it goes to the kinda transition bit with the French Horn solo at 1:21, in the movie I noticed he uses that in two scenes....when she runs away from Maz's, and when the Falcon arrives after the lightsaber fight. To me that kinda represents her "call to adventure", in the movie we hear it first when she's rejecting the lightsaber and running from it, and then the second time is just after she's defeated Kylo Ren and "accepted the call." It feels like such a bold statement and it's like it works two ways...at Maz's it sounds like a cry for help but in the forest, it becomes inspiring. And in this track, it's like once you hear the call, THAT'S when you get the full versions of her theme.
It's so thoughtful...there are so many connections with her theme in this movie and yet it also just works so great and simple as music! He has such a great way of capturing a story and expressing it without words. It not only matches Rey but to me it also mirrors the whole feel of Force Awakens, it's a theme that's overall light and fun and charming, kinda mysterious and intriguing to begin with but keeps developing into something exciting, and becomes sad and wistful as you get to the end.
I like how the song has overtones of hope, but its obvious that along with the innocence that comes with the new generation of Jedi, including Rey; the Jedi are never going to be the same again. The golden era has passed. John Williams is a true genius
Dwiref Oza you are a genius
One of the most beautiful pieces of music I've ever heard
Nostalgia. Walking out of the theatre in 2015 on a cold December night. Shit was so different not even 6 years ago.
