No number of prequel memes or nostalgia filters will ever make this a great film, but it has its moments, and it caused a wonderful summer of excitement back at the end of the last millennium. The score is one of the few things that rose to the lofty levels of the original trilogy. This early scene was one of the first moments when we realised we would be getting a lot of brand new wonderful Star Wars music from maestro John Williams.
