Thursday's power...

[silveradept]

Well, right now, I'm updating from a remote machine at the moment, as my ISP has conked out for the count. There will be people arriving tomorrow to deal with the problem, however, we're a bit cheesed about it. Soh, I'm taking advantage of the University's wonderful computing resources by hijacking a computer that could probably be doing real work right about now.

I also happening to be listening to some MP3s that I brought across with me. My roomies are both having marathon programming/learning sessions up here, so I'm by myself. I do have reading to do, so I won't waste time too inefficiently. Still, the danger of going stir-crazy is quite high.

And I have a randomish thought for today: Why do villains get cooler music scores? This is both a movie and video game trend as far as I have figured... the themes we always remember are the ones for the villains, bosses, and bad dudes. Can anyone explain why this happens?

Oh, and tomorrow should be a lot of fun. More details after I survive it.

Throne room? I don't remember Ben's theme there... Are you perhaps confusing it with the Imperial March at Vader's death scene? It's played on a single flute or f. horn (I don't remember which). Extremely powerful.

The end of the first movie. Ben's theme becomes a more stately march as Luke and Han are awarded their medals for valor, and it segues into the End Credits.
