Agreed. I think Yub Nub is really good right at the end, but Victory Celebration is good throughout.

Both are great but given i grew up with the special editions ,i have nostalgia for Victory Celebration
I grew up with Yub Nub on VHS, but it never really did a lot for me. Hearing Victory Celebration later, in 97, was kind of a revelation.
Victory Celebration sounds like EPCOT Illuminations, which I love, and seems perfect for a celebrations around the whole galaxy. It also takes only 1 minute to get really good.
Yub Nub is funny, and i mean this in a good way, but it only really gets good as a big celebration right at the end. Most of it just sounds too mild, like if ewoks were just celebrating a birthday party.

PREACH. I've never liked Yub Nub all that much. It takes far, farrrr too long to get going IMO.
That said...
This piece takes second place.
Yeah, but then the First Order came about with Snoke or whatever the fuck that storyline was
Both work and I like both for different reasons.
Victory Celebration is better given the context of the prequels that adds additional build up and catharsis from that moment. It feels more like a galaxy-wide victory here.
Before the prequels existed and given the OT's more personal story, partying with the Ewoks fit better. It feels more like a personal victory for Luke & the Rebels here.

I agree. Love victory celebration. Beautiful piece of music. One of the very few good changes made.
Considering how the Sequels turned out, this scene is no longer as happy as it once was. Let's all hope we're not fighting Trump again in 30 years after his fascists have retaken control of the country.
It's no Yub Nub, but given the context of the cut, it does work better. In the end it is always Yub Nub though.
This. Plus it also added to personal growth of Luke, Han and Leia.
What's wild is that i literally wanted this yesterday if Biden won. Really weird how it actually came to be.
Yep, both are fine. Nostalgia draws me to the original ofc, but I'm not going to lose sleep over the changes that were made here (or to any of the original films).
I love Victory Celebration because it gave that sense of finality to this long and hard battle.
Now that absolutely everything in that scene has been rendered irrelevant and a false victory, I guess Yub Nub fits better.
