This topic is lockedGreat, so that means :
2012-02-14 LLLCD1193 (3CD set)
2012-02-14 LLLCD1199 (90's romantic comedy)
2012-02-14 LLLCD1198 (might not be done until 02-28)
2012-02-28 LLLCD1191
2012-02-28 LLLCD1200 (200th release!!)
If all goes well...yes, thats the plan.

Romantic from the 90s...How about Howard's Prince of Tides? Or John Barry's Indecent Proposal?

It's got to be Hook. No human being could give so many hints over the last three years, knowing full well how Hook hopefuls would interpret them, without being able to deliver.

I just realized I haven't listened to Hook since July 2010, when speculation about LLL releasing it for Black Friday 2010 first began. This is going to be a nice drink of water.

The magical place is Fantasia. We are overdue for a serious presentation of the score to The Never-Ending Story, one without that ultra sugary synthesized happy feeling "Ivory Tower" to be found on every album I've ever found.

MV never promised that their 200th release would be "big". In fact, I don't think he's said anything about it one way or the other.
Their 50th title was Spaceballs, and their 100th and 150th were Bear McCreary's Battlestar Galactica Season 4 and Caprica, so they certainly haven't purposely held "big" titles for landmark numbers in the past.

This is just ridiculous, and I don't believe in superstition, but:
Last night my wife and I were hanging out after putting the baby to sleep. We had "Frasier" on TV just for background noise. I was thumbing through the forums here and saw the announcement/comment from MV about "what magical land will we visit next," etc. At that moment I glanced up from the phone at the TV, and at the bottom of the TV the channel had a little graphic that said "Next up: Hook." I'd say that's a sign, right?

February 14th is a Tuesday. All La-La Land titles come out on Tuesdays (Friday the 13th boxset was a rare exception).
MV always pre-announces the titles the Tuesday before, with some rare exceptions (Black Friday, Christmas Eve).
So, MV will let us know what the February 14th titles are on Tuesday, February 7th.

You could pull off a 2CD set that covers absolutely everything essential to the score including the known original and revised versions of cues. This would only work if the two Ultimate War inserts were presented seperately as short tracks, or if they were inserted into the Utlimate War track but the original, non-Insert-ed version of The Ultimate War was not included at all.
If you wanted to present the Ultimate War sequence twice, once with inserts and once without, you would need 3 CDs. You would also need 3 CDs if some alternates/original versions that we never knew about before were uncovered. If somehow old demo versions of the songs from the aborted play were licenesed, you would need 3 CDs to include those as well.
So, it all depends on what exisits, and what is able to be licensed and approved.

Not likely since it's a Varèse title. I think with the both references made by Neil and MV this most likely is really Hook this time.

The CD is still in print though. I looked on Movie Music and it's readily available there as well as on Varèse site.

Ars superior est vita hominum.
"We pop out and come into the world and music is there. We didn't invent it - it's all organised in the atmosphere by divinity or whatever. It's a miracle." - John Williams-
I think music is a stream of some kind. It could be blood. It could be water. It could be ether. Whatever it is it seems to be a living, organic force that’s in motion, that serves humanity and is part of humanity and part of what describes us as humans. We sing, play, dance, all the things that we do. And there is a vibrant and great literature we have been given. ... As musicians, we join the stream. We swim in the stream with all the other millions of music makers. It’s a life force, a strong one, surrounding us and we are part of it. -John Williams-

I hope it's either Hook or a Jurassic 1 & 2 box.
It occurred to me last night that next year, the first film is 20 years old. Two decades, and not a single additional note from the score has appeared in any form... and no, the clean History Lesson cue doesn't change anything. Still sounds too distant.
