Music-wise, the PT is good but doesn't hold a candle to the OT. The ST is nothing.

edit - lol back to back "nothing" comments for the ST.

I remember many songs of the originals, and none of the others. Even Duel of the Fate fades in my mind, I have to rewatch the scene to refresh it.

I would have to give it to the prequels personally. I think the OT is more iconic, of course, but I think the prequels have the better score altogether.

What truly made me appreciate their music was the section of the documentary "The Prequels Strike Back", which goes into the way the music of the prequels really tells the story as much as the visuals do.

I found this clip, which is a section of that discussion:

It's OT>PT>ST, but there's a pretty wide gap between PT and ST. Duel of Fates really is that awesome.

I'm a big fan of the originals and very much not a fan of the prequels, but yeah, I think I can give this one to the prequel stans. The music in all three movies is phenomenal. The originals still have the music I'm the most nostalgic about, but if there's anything the prequels did well it was ambiance and soundtrack.

Hell, Duel of the Fates alone blows most of the rest of the music in the entire series out of the water.

See, this I can agree. Prequels music was very good. Sequel was rather uninspired, although I really like Rey's theme.

Although this is my weak point


Lost it when it started to play in TLJ.

It's pretty close between the prequels and OT. I can't remember anything from the sequel trilogy.
