  1. I think the only thing I can't really get behind is the overlay dark, over-sharpened Struzan painting. In case you need a better source, here you go: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1NFE91LJIwFDk6TsAgXBnMX7zNVHQ0el1/view?usp=sharing
  2. Not sure how well they work printed (plus they contain some placeholder text). https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1bIMPyI34ABAT6M4SwbsMP2xlpfrFNnBD?usp=sharing
  3. While there were some shots in the video, where the animation cells where upscaled, they did get some crisp paint overs where detail was crucial (the eyes, for example). But then again there were other clips, like the opening panorama shot of Paris, where the background was a fully reworked high-res version of the painting, with stunning detail. So I guess wherever possible they rebuilt the cutscenes from scratch, while animation cells were too much work to re-paint completely. It doesn't look like simply upscaling the original compressed cutscenes was ever the plan (unless some material is missing completely). That being said, the Kickstarter is still active, with the collected money ALSO utilized to further improve the remaster (and not just pay for the merch).
  4. I keep pestering them about offering a CD as an alternative to the soundtrack vinyl, but they haven't replied.
  5. The console versions of the CE have the soundtrack in their own jewel case. Still awaiting mine.
  6. I've been wondering: If there were proper LLL or Intrada releases of the Indy scores, would 2-CD sets of each one be enough, or does any of them warrant more discs? In case of a box set I've been thinking of Harry Potter, where the first movie got a 3-CD set. Would something like that be necessary for Indy?
  7. I always order via the (German) Soundtrack Corner. Top Gun is €39.95 + €2.50 shipping.
  8. Well, at least when asked about it (thousands of times on social media), Struzan HIMSELF was adamant that he is retired. Since according to him, the meddling on his Crystal Skull poster was the reason he quit the business in the first place, I guess he wasn't keen to return to that franchise.
  9. My rendition of "The Coldest Year of My Life" from "Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis" (this time only containing a small quote of the Raiders March):
  10. Actually, about 20 years ago, I ran a website called LucasArts Soundtracks. For that I edited the complete music from the game (in fact, a rip from the Xbox version, as the audio files had a higher bitrate than the PC version) into a 2-CD album. I even used playthroughs of the game as a guide to make the track titles as sensible as possible. It's been uploaded to YouTube here: I gave ChatGPT a description of the game, its locations and characters, and told it to come up with a soundtrack playlist in the style of Indiana Jones soundtrack releases. Then I edited it a bit afterwards
  11. Same in the German trailer, where they didn't use Harrison Ford's German voice actor Wolfgang Pampel (78), BUT: They've used Florian Clyde (40), who voiced Aaron Eldenreich in the Solo movie, and who - at least in Solo - managed an impressive impersonation of the young Wolfgang Pampel. It didn't work as well in this trailer, but either dialogue direction will get him there for the final game, or they'll hopefully use Pampel one last time (even at 78, it's just the German voice you associate with Ford, who he voiced since Star Wars).
