Brundlefly 2,385 Posted August 28, 2017 Share Posted August 28, 2017 Similar poll, this time concerning the already expanded trilogies. Therefore they have probably no chance against the two other trilogies. Both expansions have major problems, like much too long medleys, terrible sound quality (SW) and pitch issues as well as a bunch of missing cues/inserts (IJ). And both trilogies barely have any alternates or bonus tracks. So, which set is more necessary? Sorry, I couldn't resist making this poll. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jay 37,281 Posted August 29, 2017 Share Posted August 29, 2017 Great question. I vote IJ, because we already have basically all of the SW OT music, just not in ideal sound quality and programming. But there's some damn fine TOD and TLC cues that are still unreleased. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wojo 2,453 Posted August 29, 2017 Share Posted August 29, 2017 The Star Wars set would need the music free Jabba's sail barge to consider picking it over Indy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Mark 3,624 Posted August 29, 2017 Share Posted August 29, 2017 I'l still go with Star wars because we have less % of cues in good quality and there's probably more unused/alternates. I'd be nice to hear a complete recordings of the prequels instead of cobbled up edits. I know we have a lot of the music but still some edits can't be made perfect and it's extremely annoying when you come across one. .AotC is still missing a lot of stuff. Also I could rid my hard drive of GB's of videogame music and not have to worry about editing when a new game comes out. Edit: poll SW OT only?..Indy wins by far . SW OT in better sound is a "bonus release" for me SW Prequels >>> Indy> Harry Potter > SW OT Chewy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brundlefly 2,385 Posted August 29, 2017 Author Share Posted August 29, 2017 For me it's also Indiana Jones: 1. There is much more music missing (what a brilliant alliteration) and 2. I know the music far better as I know IJ since my early childhood, unlike SW. @king markI think it's obvious, that we all want nothing more than proper releases for all trilogies, but if I had to rank them like you, it would be as follows: Harry Potter > Indiana Jones > Star Wars Prequels > Star Wars Original Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jay 37,281 Posted August 29, 2017 Share Posted August 29, 2017 Well one is controlled by a film studio that has worked with the specialty labels a lot. But does the JK Rowling angle add a level of complexity that can't be overcome? The other 3 are owned by Disney, who has done some work with specialty labels in the past, but probably considers these 10 scores to be something they'd release themselves. But are they self-starters, or does someone like a Mike Matessino need to light a fire under their ass? And even if he did, are Concord's IJ rights over in 2018, or not until 2023 or 2028? Sony had SW rights from 1999 to 2016 for reference, and the Concord box came out in 2008. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not Mr. Big 4,639 Posted August 30, 2017 Share Posted August 30, 2017 I don't exactly know what's missing from either aside from the ToD drum cue so I'll have to go with the OT, for improved sound quality on ROTJ. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trent B 337 Posted October 18, 2017 Share Posted October 18, 2017 Star Wars got my vote. The Indy scores are OK but for me personally I don't connect to them like I do for Star Wars. I'd rather have properly remastered versions of the OT. Hell even complete sets for the Prequels would be more ideal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rough cut 1,714 Posted October 18, 2017 Share Posted October 18, 2017 There should be a ’neither’ option. Honestly, I feel like I’ve bought these scores to death. I mean, don’t get me wrong, I would buy either of them in a heartbeat, but feel excitement? For what? Lapti Nek? Desert Chase? Unless they dig up an original LSO recording of a concert arrangement of say Lando’s Palace or Marion’s Theme, these releases won’t get my blood pumping. I would rather buy a 7 disc set of the SW prequels, or a 2 disc release of KOTCS. You should add that to the poll as well, right before the ‘neither’ option.

I think people are just tired of their stitched together fan edits, which now require 3 different sources (4 if you rip audio from the film itself) for optimal quality. It results in a hodge-podge of varying audio quality, epitomised by the awful-sounding ROTJ SE. So currently our options are settling for a fan edit of all available sources (time consuming to assemble), the edited and incomplete OSTs/Anthologies with the best SQ, or the complete SEs with poor SQ. The scores are long overdue for the modern Mike Matessino treatment, using the best available scanning technology to preserve these scores before they're lost to time.

Incanus 5,713 Posted October 18, 2017 Share Posted October 18, 2017 I'd go with the Indiana Jones scores. Those scores complete and chronological is one of my holy grails still. I am near heretical in thinking that the previous OT Star Wars releases are still quite OK. But I would not refuse new versions of these either.

crumbs 14,297 Posted October 18, 2017 Share Posted October 18, 2017 Yes, for the record, I voted Indy. The last expansion, noble effort it may be, was a mess. Incorrect takes, incorrect cues (alternates instead of film versions), missing inserts & sweeteners, distracting and unnecessary reverb, tapes transferred at the wrong speed, plus trademark Williams microedits! At least the Star Wars trilogy is available complete in some form. Indy sure ain't! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
