Giftheck 916 Posted September 7, 2016 Share Posted September 7, 2016 Just a curious thought here that I thought would make for an interesting discussion. What scores do you guys really want to see released, but know that it will never, ever come to pass? The one score I know full-well will never get a release but I would really like to see released is the score for Digimon: The Movie. The movie itself sucks, even to a longtime fan, and the score did indeed end up butchered in the film (a lot of it was reused in the second series so you can still hear a lot of the unused moments - if you can pick them apart from the original score, which I believe was recorded at the same time), but I find a lot of the pieces oddly catching. It's a score which has only ever half-leaked through composer's websites and various cues that were given to certain people (I myself received about fifteen minutes of music from Udi Harpaz). The rights to it are all over the place: in the early 2000s, Disney bought the rights to Saban, but when Saban bought back the rights, Disney wound up keeping Saban Music Group's masters. The publishing rights currently sit with BMG. Another one never likely to see the light of day that I think should is the score to Spider-Man 3. I really loved Christopher Young's work on it, even if he was worked hard by Sam Raimi . It is true that there is a recording sessions leak out there thanks to a certain website that I shan't name (you all know it anyway but as we're not trying to advocate piracy here I'll keep it off here). But once again the full score has never surfaced and as I understand it there are certain legal issues with the score that pretty much permanently prevent it from ever being released. TV series-wise, I'd love a release of the score to seasons 3, 4 and 5 of the now-defunct Primeval (we got a CD that covers music from the first and second seasons and some from season 3) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skelly 261 Posted September 7, 2016 Share Posted September 7, 2016 Mark Thomas's scores to the two Doc Martin films. The films have long since been overshadowed by the television series (scored by Colin Towns). http://coolmusicltd.com/wp-content/uploads/MT-TV-CUE-05-DOC-MARTIN-TRK-01.mp3 As for Spidey 3, I've never really looked at the score... I know film mixes of certain cues are markedly different from what you can find on bootlegs, but are there any substantial differences? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They don't seem to be easy to obtain. They're very different from the television series... a lot more whimsical. They're less focused on medical mysteries and more on weird goings-on. I was fortunate to watch them on Netflix back when they were on their streaming platform. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thor 7,504 Posted September 7, 2016 Share Posted September 7, 2016 Let's say it's true that John Williams boycotts a release of THE SUGARLAND EXPRESS. Maybe he'll make sure that, once he passes, his estate will continue to uphold the "ban" for years to come. Then it won't be available untill it becomes public domain, and by then we're all dead and buried. Depressing thought. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A self-funded recording and release by the usual-suspects would be a surefire cash loss for them, unfortunately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

leeallen01 2,136 Posted September 7, 2016 Share Posted September 7, 2016 'Click' by Rupert Gregson-Williams. It has the feel of Newman, with a splash of Horner. I remember actually tearing up in the cinema, and at an Adam Sandler film! Well come to think of it, I actually tear up whenever I watch 50 First Dates. Jesus I'm sensitive.

JacksonElmore 69 Posted September 7, 2016 Share Posted September 7, 2016 Sounds stupid but trevor rabin's g force watched that movie when it came out, was stupid silly but the score sounded cool and the main theme was pretty good and heroic sounding. Theres plenty of bootlegs out there but i wish there would have been an album release of it. It's a score thats most comparable to a soundtrack like bolt (2008).

Matt C 454 Posted September 10, 2016 Share Posted September 10, 2016 I want an Intrada release of Christopher Young's Spider-Man 3 score. Even with the post-production tinkering, the way Young incorporated Elfman's material into his own was inspired and quite thrilling. It's just pathetic how Sony doesn't want to pay to use Elfman's material. Raimi's Spider-Man movies grossed a collective $2.5 billion, and yet paying a five figure royalty is like pulling teeth to them regarding a CD release.
