    Ollie got a reaction from aescalle in SUPERMAN: THE MOVIE - 3CD Set from La-La Land Records   
    I received some stuff in the mail Monday.
     
    I’ll admit I got a bit misty eyed listening to the Helicopter Rescue, the clarity is stunning.

    Apparently LaLaLand Employee2 has put a package for me in the mail.  I'm way more excited about that than a guy who already owns the Blue Box probably ought to be.  But dadgum if it isn't true.

    It's the same problem with the greatest two-parter in the history of Star Trek. The Best of Both Worlds, Part 1 set the bar so high that Part II just couldn't top it. 
     
    I expected Isaac's defection but still cheered as it unfolded. I didn't expect the Krill cease-fire. 
     
    I would LOVE for this show to resurrect Carlos Bernard's character as an evil character, in true 24 fashion.

    Ollie reacted to TownerFan in Ennio Morricone is complimentary but critical of John Williams in his new book   
    How sad to see Alessandro De Rosa's beautiful, in-depth writing for this book with Morricone going down the trivializing route of petty journalism in search of gossips.
     
    Morricone's remarks about Star Wars were already exposed in Sergio Miceli's book "Composing for Cinema" from the late 1990s. Here, Alessandro asked him specifically why he was so critical of the score and Morricone basically stated the same (i.e. a march is a musical form not good for science fiction, etc.), but there is absolutely nothing envious about it.
     
    Ennio Morricone is totally and absolutely respectful of John Williams, both as a composer and as a colleague. He sincerely admires him. And the admiration is mututal, as JW himself penned a short introductory note for this book.
     
    Just do yourself a favor: read the book for what it is, i.e. an absolute and unique peek inside the mind of a musical genius.

    Wont listen until it’s ripped and shuffled randomly onto my iPod, so can’t comment on the sound quality.

    5 pages of junk moved to a new thread in General Discussion. Go there if you want to see it or comment on it, or it's deletion from here.

    That's because it's not selling well. Nobody bought this junk. I alraedy pointed that out on Rotten Tomatoes four months ago.

    The Rhino release is Out Of Print.
     
    The Blue Box is Out Of Print.
     
    The full original OST program has never been legally sold in the USA.
     
    Of course a release combining the complete score with the OST should be available for anyone to buy.
     
    The fact it has improved sound and new alternates is just icing on the cake.
     
    No one is forcing anyone to buy it, so no one really has the right to complain.  But this hobby is full of people who like to complain, and there are many outlets for them to complain at.
