For those that frown on downloading copies, if it's not sold out then someone is getting it for me Christmas. I still think it's not worth $100, and I bet there's a ton of music included that I never listen to (like all the extra stuff on the SW SE's).  

 

As far as packaging, it will just collect dust once I rip the CD's. 

 

The cost is also relative to the amount of work put into the product. Somebody took the time to restore 8 hours of full orchestra music and put it all together nicely. That's worth A LOT more that $100 to me.

If you like the music, then IMO it's worth it.

 

Not necessarily. A lot of it is stuff I could do without. I'm mostly interested in the POA score.

HP + Schindler's List --> 207 $ CAN

HP + SL + SPR + HA + Dennis the Menace --> 180€

When I bought the JP release I was only interested in JP because it's my favorite Williams score. Now Lost World is on par with Jurassic Park in my mind. You'll learn to appreciate the rest.

Canadian dollars aren't worth as much as US dollars which in turn aren't worth as much Euros

All you need is Dennis the Menace.

[Disco Stu 15,495]

I love the Dennis the Menace score.  It's honestly one of my favorite Goldsmiths.

[Space Pineapple Prod. 183]

One of my favorite things to do when I get these expanded scores is rip the movie, mute the movie when music happens, and just listen to the score. I've done it twice now and It's fun and really enlightening. That's going to be fun with this set.

I know. The dollar is still quite fucked currently, especially the CAD.

Poland is an empire now? 😜 I thought you were just a plaything of the Germans and Russians 😜

[Space Pineapple Prod. 183]

Listening to the demo tracks, I love how the Choir is mixed. It plays a big part whereas in other scores it's mixed very quiet unless it's playing part of the melody. In HP often times it's just chords, yet they still bring it to the front and it just adds to the atmosphere so well.

Please note NONE of these stores are guaranteed product before Christmas. If you want Harry Potter for the holidays you should order it directly through the La-La Land website

Good thing we did just that!

[redishere 697]

What a day (well, a night for me - 1:30am here).  It’s been an honor freaking out with you all 😂 Now, off to listen to all the samples before falling asleep and we’ll catch up tomorrow!

 

thanks triple-L for this treat

"Beautiful score, sir, beautiful, handmade, original from LaLa, unique score, only 99 baht!"

 

 

 

 

Felt surprisingly good paying 146 € for TWINE and HP.

I've wanted to do a star wars movie! So far I've done JP: TLW, JP, and parts of Titanic. I don't know how I'd share it with you guys, as youtube blocks the upload.

I clicked a file and it crashed my computer. But I see what you're talking about and I'll give that a try.

It looks like I don't have anything unique anyways. Jurassic Park and TLW are already there. Looks like I'd better finish Titanic.

[King Mark 3,624]

Thanks Jason for helping make this  set possible. Not sure what input you had but I'm sure you made sure none of us were disappointed by omitting something important.

[Jay 37,271]

Thanks KM. Everything important is here for sure. Of course, everyone has their own opinion of "important"

[Josh500 1,615]

And now the waiting game begins...

 

Most of us who ordered this on Day One will likely get this by the 14th... 

 

So in 17 days! This will be a long 2 and a half weeks! 😥

 

 

[crumbs 14,287]

Wonder what order number they're up to.

Does the order number actually tell us how have many orders have been placed so far? 

[Arpy 4,145]

Bollemanneke's number begins with 13, whereas mine and others begin with 16. Not sure, perhaps just a different sorting code depending on geography? Time? 

@Jay Did you receive a complimentary set?

[crumbs 14,287]

Not necessarily but there was a pretty consistent chronological increase earlier in the thread over the first ten minutes. 

[Jay 37,271]

I believe I will get a promo copy but they don't ship those till after all the paying customers are taken care of iirc.

I just looked. My order number is 000001. Does that mean I'll get it first?

[King Mark 3,624]

so that means in the time I took to review my order at 3.01 already 500+ people had clicked faster than me?

I doubt there was 500 of us waiting to order in that amount of time, but I could be wrong..

Sure. Why not? 

 

You have to imagine 1,000 people or more all over the world placing their orders simultaneously at one specific point in time. Every split second counts.

[Space Pineapple Prod. 183]

So where would 167944 fit into that? There's not 167,000 copies of this.

[King Mark 3,624]

The lowest number I see is about  166775

 

So at 167112 I'd be 337 th?

From memory someone else had a lower number but you'd definitely be right up (down?) there.
