Technically in many cases a looot of archival work has to be done for rerecordings, finding and organising the written material, reconstructing or reorchestrating missing or illegible stuff... but yeah

The one where a third of the tracks phase. Fucking beautiful.

Quick question, sorry for the potential excitement caused by the thread bump: I'm looking at getting El Cid and there's a 3CD Tadlow (TADLOW005) and a 2CD Silva version (SILCD1299) with different art and of course missing content from the latter, but the actual score seems to be the same. Never seen this before with any other release, what's the deal? Any actual difference or just the same master issued differently between two labels? Did one sell out and the other is a reissue? Both are in stock at intermezzo but the 2CD Silva is much more expensive.

In January 2024, journalist Jeff Sneider reported that Sony had performed reshoots for Madame Web to remove references to the originally planned 1990s setting of the film, which was intended to have Andrew Garfield's version of Peter Parker / Spider-Man from The Amazing Spider-Man films exist within the film's continuity but not appear, before the studio decided to instead have this be Tom Holland's version of the character from the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) Spider-Man films. This resulted in the timeline needing to be adjusted to align with that character's age,[78] with the film ultimately set in 2003.[12][78] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Madame_Web_(film)#Post-production

Because they wanted it to be a prequel to Garfield's Spider-Man and it was set in the 90s, before they changed their minds and made it a prequel to Holland's Spider-Man set in 2003 mid-production, before they changed their minds and removed the explicit reference to Peter Parker mid-production, or something.

Even if I really don't like the lack of title on these, at least it's not crap! This is one way to get rid of fuckups, don't add any text or make any changes to good art, then it can't be ugly text and ugly changes. Like not joining cues and therefore eliminating the possibility of wrong or phasing joins.

Fortunate? He's the one doing them and pushing for them!

Barry scored the belated end of the Titanic's voyage, but how about the beginning?

So no change? Is this familiar to anyone else?

Yeah, we cut to the Falcon and it's in front of the SD's nose, they know where it is and can follow it. Luke just flew off in an X-Wing they didn't see or follow sometime later then jumped to hyperspace, of course they'll choose to directly pursue the ship they can see that has a faulty hyperdrive.

Finished two pleasant puzzle games this past week or two, both mainly focused on and exploring a single gimmick. Cocoon has its separate worlds as orbs you can carry to use the different abilities they grant you, or jump into them carrying other orbs, or orbs within orbs. The layered multiworld interactions get pretty involved by the end, and I loved the insectpunk aesthetic. Chants of Senaar revolves around understanding and translating the language and glyphs of multiple cultures living segregated on levels of a huge tower from scratch, and eventually bringing them together. Making progress is very satisfying! Both are nice and breezy, no strict handholding but intuitive design that mostly leads you to the answer without too much frustration. A refreshing change of pace after finally finishing GTA:SA for the first time in my life in a 60+ hour run.

Volume I is more focused on the bigger, better known stuff with more complete or close to complete OST programs, II is mostly shorter selections from more scores, somewhat deeper cuts. I is for falling in love with him, II is for exploring more.

Ah, a chamber arrangement!

If I were a Reich man... Wait, what was the topic?

Hook looks great and fun ya sourpusses!

You mean the 1.5hr making of docu included with the movie? You mean the 4hr making of docu included with the movie?

Well, if you can call an unused song in a score that was unused for a big market "famous"...

You mean the sarcastic followup to my obviously sarcastic joke post?

So you're still not getting the "problem"? It's not that they now have a newly discovered source that is better than everything they had previously, they had it all this time and never bothered to do their work properly and check it through numerous releases, even for the last, supposedly comprehensive "last word" the previous expansion was presented as. I'd say people who bought it are pretty justified in feeling ripped off.

My Alien main program is quite simple, just the Intrada main program with Terrain, Craft, Passage, Skeleton and New Face joined into one for better flow, barely overlapped, and Out the Door switched out for the revision for that sweet Shaft-esque alien theme reprise as a climactic culmination instead of the original's more out there variation. Then I just have my usual assembly of the remaining interesting material: Main Title (Alternate) Hanging On (Alternate) overlapping its ending fadeout It's a Droid (plus inserts), with its opening loud note and continued tenstion acting as the payoff to Hanging On's buildup The Terrain (Alternate) for a little break after that middle action The Skeleton (Alternate), first note overlapping with last The Cupboard (Alternate) Out the Door with its very last notes removed Hyper Sleep (Alternate) to extend this soft ending a bit Those last notes of Out the Door to cap it off satisfyingly

The movie's very deliberately over the top grand theatrical, what Oldman did fits perfectly IMO.

So their workflow somewhere has an "add random clicks" step and then later a "get Chris to remove the clicks if somebody notices" step? And then a "make sure we don't represent the actual product with the official samples" step?

Wake me up when Jet Jaguar's in these

Right, and the material from the late sessions really doesn't sound good in whatever mix they used. Don't know how good or bad that notoriously rushed recording was and how much a from-scratch mix could improve it though, as it is it's hot, distant feeling but loudened up to be in your face, and near-mono. But no real editing mistakes I think, many cues were not joined. In fact, the big bus setpiece in the movie is a combination of two full takes, and Doug just included both separately, one with a flub as the main version and the other as an alternate, without even attempting to join them as they should be - but I guess with that he at least reduced the chances of a crap edit.
