Damien F 2,079 Posted March 27, 2012 Posted March 27, 2012 #48087Ordered!! To quote Albert from War Horse:"There are big days, and there are small days, and this is a big day"
John Crichton 4 Posted March 27, 2012 Posted March 27, 2012 The old OST cover was always one of my favorites. Like Karol said, simple is sometimes the best.
Incanus 5,890 Posted March 27, 2012 Posted March 27, 2012 Buying a "backup" copy for yourself when there's sure to be a good amount of people to be missing out on this or forced to buy on EBay for ungodly prices seems awfully selfish if you ask me.So? That's what every dealer does, isn't it? And 2 copies, boohoo! No biggie. There will be guys who will be buying 20 copies just to make a few bucks on ebay.And that's messed up too. Unless you're buying for a friend that can't be sure to get one before they sell out, I see no need to get multiple copies for yourself. That's just screwing someone else out of one.These days most people do their listening in digital format anyway. CDs are something most people rip and then they are more a storage for music. I admit that I listen to mp3s more than my precious CD collection. So why buy two of limited set for yourself and indeed rob others the chance to get it.

Frank Vincent 301 Posted March 27, 2012 Posted March 27, 2012 More samples available here:http://www.jwfan.com/?p=2614And they are great!
Incanus 5,890 Posted March 27, 2012 Posted March 27, 2012 wow.. what's that short fanfare in Pirates? Is that when Smee "unfolds" the red carpet? Never noticed that music before..is that an alternate?Good ears Cool though it sounds quite abrupt on the LLL site's sample clip.

That's just screwing someone else out of one.Aren't you rather making a mountain out of a mole hill?Over a freaking CD for Pete's sake! And anyway, if everybody bought only 1 copy, HOOK will probably never sell out.Yes, I got a shipping notice. Man that was fast! Still waiting for mine...

Incanus 5,890 Posted March 27, 2012 Posted March 27, 2012 Just got my shipping notice!!!That's the advantage of ordering straight from LLL. They ship really quickly in these cases.

crocodile 9,724 Posted March 27, 2012 Posted March 27, 2012 Not buying this.Waiting for the definitive edition.Hey, maybe the complete Hook will be announced on Black Friday and this is just a tie-in marketing stunt. Karol
John Crichton 4 Posted March 27, 2012 Posted March 27, 2012 Damn! Shipping already!Aren't you rather making a mountain out of a mole hill?No, just caring to think about other people besides myself. But I've said my peace.

KK 3,313 Posted March 27, 2012 Posted March 27, 2012 Not buying this.Waiting for the definitive edition.BloodBoal, could it be that you still don't BELIEVE?!?Maybe its my turn to the butt-kicking
MissPadmé 17 Posted March 27, 2012 Posted March 27, 2012 wow.. what's that short fanfare in Pirates? Is that when Smee "unfolds" the red carpet? Never noticed that music before..is that an alternate?Good ears I see..!MAN.. the new choir overlay is beautiful. but am I the onlyone who notices some audioanomalities with the swordfight music? Or am I just soo used to the old DVD rip that I'm imagening things?? ..Well after listening to that unreleased music in THat quality, I don't really care for the food-insert
Damien F 2,079 Posted March 27, 2012 Posted March 27, 2012 The old OST cover was always one of my favorites. Like Karol said, simple is sometimes the best.I agree, simple but very effective.BTW, I'd love to be in the LLL office right now. The excitement and buzz of watching all those orders coming in must be wonderful.
Josh500 1,620 Posted March 27, 2012 Posted March 27, 2012 Aren't you rather making a mountain out of a mole hill?No, just caring to think about other people besides myself. But I've said my peace.Well, then maybe you should donate your 30 bucks for a good cause, perhaps.And I've said my piece too.End of discussion.
John Crichton 4 Posted March 27, 2012 Posted March 27, 2012 BTW, I'd love to be in the LLL office right now. The excitement and buzz of watching all those orders coming in must be wonderful.Those guys are working their asses off right now! They're gonna be ready to drop once the day is over, but it's all worth it.
KK 3,313 Posted March 27, 2012 Posted March 27, 2012 Just got my shipping notice!!!That's the advantage of ordering straight from LLL. They ship really quickly in these cases.Indeed, but I just ordered the FSM Ben-Hur set with Hook on SAE, so I thought I might as well get them together
Jay 46,241 Posted March 27, 2012 Author Posted March 27, 2012 am I the onlyone who notices some audioanomalities with the swordfight music? Or am I just soo used to the old DVD rip that I'm imagening things?? ..It's very apparent when listening to the new CD that the second half of the Ultimate War was taken from the music-only stem of the film itself. Since Matt Verboys and MV Gerhard said on Tim's radio show that they initially could not find the Ultimate War material when they found all the other master recordings, one can assume that they never did find them and had to resort to using the film stem as a last resort.
Josh500 1,620 Posted March 27, 2012 Posted March 27, 2012 If the samples are any indication, I think the sound quality is slightly better than on the Epic release (which itself wasn't that bad)!I am hoping on the same level as HA2!
Admiral Holdo 16 Posted March 27, 2012 Posted March 27, 2012 My notice of shipment has arrived as well. So we're looking at... Friday, maybe Thursday if I'm lucky....is it Thursday yet?
Laserschwert 676 Posted March 27, 2012 Posted March 27, 2012 Got my shipping notice as well, but based on previous LLL orders, shipping to Germany will take 4 - 6 weeks...
Frank Vincent 301 Posted March 27, 2012 Posted March 27, 2012 My notice of shipment has arrived as well. So we're looking at... Friday, maybe Thursday if I'm lucky....is it Thursday yet?Lucky you, I have to wait at least a week.Got my shipping notice as well, but based on previous LLL orders, shipping to Germany will take 4 - 6 weeks...Really? That's long. I've never had to wait that long. It's rediculous.
Demondm810 473 Posted March 27, 2012 Posted March 27, 2012 wow.. what's that short fanfare in Pirates? Is that when Smee "unfolds" the red carpet? Never noticed that music before..is that an alternate?Good ears ooh! Any other treats like this to be found?
crocodile 9,724 Posted March 27, 2012 Posted March 27, 2012 Got my shipping notice as well, but based on previous LLL orders, shipping to Germany will take 4 - 6 weeks...When I lived in Poland it took about exactly two weeks (sometimes even less). Can't see why it should take longer in your case.Karol
Trent B 354 Posted March 27, 2012 Posted March 27, 2012 I got my shipping notice close to 10 minutes ago. Order number 47686.
John Crichton 4 Posted March 27, 2012 Posted March 27, 2012 With luck and no post office frak ups I'll have mine by the end of the week.
Delorean90 47 Posted March 27, 2012 Posted March 27, 2012 More samples available here:http://www.jwfan.com/?p=2614Nice! Thanks!!And I've also gotten my shipping notice. Brilliant!
Scarpia 132 Posted March 27, 2012 Posted March 27, 2012 I just got my shipping notice! I hope it doesn't take 5 weeks to get to Chile, like Amazon shippings.

Somehow typical fate for film music. Preservation of these materials doesn't come as a priority in big companies apparently.Looooove the "Exit Music"! It is pretty great isn't it.
Trent B 354 Posted March 27, 2012 Posted March 27, 2012 With luck and no post office frak ups I'll have mine by the end of the week.Hopefully by some small miracle I'll have mine on Friday. All though realistically I'm not expecting it until Saturday.

I've never had to wait that long. It's rediculous.Yeah, lately most LLL orders took that long for me... Ordered "Batman Forver" when it was released (January 4th), it shipped the next day and I got it at the end of February.
Josh500 1,620 Posted March 27, 2012 Posted March 27, 2012 Yep, got my notice fifteen minutes ago! Just saw it. Man, that's fast!

Incanus 5,890 Posted March 27, 2012 Posted March 27, 2012 SAE might not ship immediately but they usually take only about from 1 week to 2 max to deliver to Finland. Fast and reliable.
Josh500 1,620 Posted March 27, 2012 Posted March 27, 2012 Looooove the "Exit Music"! It is pretty great isn't it. I wonder why they didn't use it, though...Could it be that this sounded a bit too much like a musical? Still, awesome, fantastic.
Trent B 354 Posted March 27, 2012 Posted March 27, 2012 SAE might not ship immediately but they usually take only about from 1 week to 2 max to deliver to Finland. Fast and reliable.They won't, like Movie Music they have to wait to get their orders from La-La Land before they can ship it to people who ordered from their site.
Delorean90 47 Posted March 27, 2012 Posted March 27, 2012 I thought I heard some of the volume level issues on the radio broadcast, but this will still be far superior to the DVD rips--not just the improved quality, but there are also instrumental details I had no idea were there, such as the percussion at the end of the sample for Ultimate War I (a nice touch of continuity from previous Lost Boys music).
