The ALIEN FRANCHISE Appreciation thread.
Richard Penna replied to Naïve Old Fart's topic in General Discussion
The Mummy is one of the first DVDs I ever bought, and it was in a shop somewhere that had a load very cheap so I bought it blind. Guess I found the cover more exciting than scary! Although I now have two copies because I had to own the region 1 version with the isolated score. As far as Alien goes, I have Prometheus, Covenant and Resurrection on Blu-ray - the latter about 95% due to the iso score. -

I'm not convinced the naming means anything specific, but I agree that especially given they did the first one, it's a very good indication that the secone one's coming. I gave the sessions a very quick skim on YouTube and actually there's a lot more here than I remember, particularly in the alternates. The movie's 2 hours (excluding credits) and the album has only got 44 minutes (!!) of score... either fees got in the way or Elfman was in a really conceptual mindset when he made it. It means that catering for alternate versions (and hopefully other composers' work) there's absolutely tons of missing music. I am so up for an expansion.

Damn, I forgot about the fees. Huge orchestra and choir - that's not coming cheap either way. The Elfman thing is something I hope is in the distant past - I'm fairly sure it's down to him getting the rights to his themes after being messed around on Spidey 2, and iirc there were suggestions back then that Young could do an album if he edited out all of Elfman's material.
-
Yep, Doc Ock's theme is really good - works great in action mode. I only have a few tracks from the first score (so I was never going to bother with LLL's set) but I might be interested in #2 if they managed to include the rescores by Debney (and whoever else). I was never crazy about the OST, but an opportunity to revisit and make a custom playlist from all the material recorded for the film, would be interesting. And this leads to further ponderings.... if LLL is about to announce this next week, could Spidey 3 possibly be on the table? Probably the only score other than JPIII/Gladiator that would make me properly thrilled.

Woah! I noticed this yesterday amongst my other earlier Intrada purchases when looking on my shelf, and remembered being annoyed that Horner had evidently nixed some cues and generally wanted his usual 'listening experience' when making the first one - the entire album feels far more curated than it probably is in the film. First rate Horner score and a great movie too. A bit like Ghostbusters 2, the initial album largedly satisfied my needs but I'm sure I'll end up getting this one too. The labels are collectively going nuclear with Horner right now!

Listening again, you've actually got two distinct parts of this cue - the piano and string wanderings at the start (which just annoy me - it's not my style at all) then the strings come in for the section used in the film, then back to more piano faffling. The beginning of the strings sounds like it's composed to merge with the very ending of the piano section, hence it seems to me to be a whole composition and they just recorded the elements separately. But yes, please please please include the string section by itself

While I wouldn't expect the full film version of Viktor's exit to feature on an expansion (it's an edit, no two ways about it) I'd absolutely expect active consideration that they would include an orchestral version of that cue without all the bits they added after. I'm glad someone else finds the plucky strings as annoying as I do. It's not difficult to use A.I. remove the plucking where Victor finally reaches the outside but heck... we shouldn't have to. I suppose the only thing that might stand in Mike's way might be if the cue was put into the film at a point where the elements were available separately but only the full album mix was stored (similar to the stems not being available now for Ripples). That or Williams loves his Jazz so much that he vetoes an orchestra-only version.
