  1. No love for The Fugitive, apart from the OP? I also second The Saint Of Fort Washington
  2. I picked up a few from the MACP database: Aziz In The Temple Safe From Evil Cornelius Mugger Light Turns To Dark/Life Turns To Death Wake Her Up But Gently Shorter Name Red Button Zorg Cheers You're A Monster I Would Have Been Notified Apipoulai Classified As Human Revenge Is At Hand Radio Show Fhloston Paradise Discreet Operation Someone To Negotiate Bomb Detectors
  3. It wasn't limited, but at some point either the initial run sold out or Intrada discontinued it, and then it instantly became a collector's item
  4. That's the same reason that I'm hesitating to see Henry: Portrait of a Serial Killer, despite it being released in an attractive package from Arrow Video a few months from now
  5. The Star Wars Anthology set!! (Just kidding, I was four years old when that was released.) I had the Intrada edition of Jaws, but I sold it when I fell into hard times. And I've been looking for any updates from Intrada about the progress of their reissue ever since then...
  6. I would say The Dead Zone is Cronenberg's most accessible film, but I would heartily recommend The Fly, Dead Ringers, Naked Lunch, Crash, and Spider
  7. Just give me a 40th anniversary complete release for the original film's score
  8. Found it! Starts at 13:22 of this documentary: I was slightly wrong; no specific reason was given for Poledouris ultimately not getting the job
  9. It would be great if we also got the film version of "Bank Invasion" and Mark Mangini's source music for a re-release!
  10. Aliens Alien³ (only if it was in a box set with the other three) Barry Lyndon Fargo Fight Club The Insider K-PAX The Master Munich No Country For Old Men Seven The Sixth Sense Taxi Driver (if it was released separately) There Will Be Blood
  11. I can't remember where exactly it came from, but I saw an interview with Richard Kraft where he revealed that Basil Poledouris was also in the competition, but he ultimately missed the opportunity because he took too long to decide
  12. Or done what La-La Land did with their 30th anniversary edition of Die Hard: present the film edit in the main program, and then each unedited version as a bonus track
  13. Just placed an order for this and Alive, without having seen either film or heard either score. Did I make a mistake?
  14. The film uses the first 1:46 of "Subway Station (Alternate)", and 1:47-end of "Subway Station"
  15. I'm sure it is wonderful, and maybe even a prototype for those other scores!
  16. Me too! I never understood why it got a bad rap among some listeners, or why some praised the sax playing in Sneakers (which I've never heard or seen) over this
  17. "Subway Station" is just one of Horner's very best cues, IMO. It's funny; "Luther's Bus (Alternate)" is actually the version we've heard all along on the bootleg and the first Intrada CD, with the prominent sax in the latter half of the cue. "Luther's Bus", included in the main program of the new CD, dials down the sax and is closer to the film mix. Both this cue and "The Alley" have been in my head this whole weekend. The alternate for "Main Title" sounds more like a rehearsal than a true alternate: the timing is sloppy, and the performances are not as robust as the final version. In both versions, though, you can now hear a faint click track for 3 seconds, starting at 4:04, before it launches into the steel drums
  18. Don't see a lot of people commenting about this set, but I still wanted to note some new discoveries I made. The biggest one is that "Subway Station" as heard in the film is actually an edit of two versions! Both of them included on the set, naturally. And "Aerobics" on this set ends without fading out, compared to the earlier edition. There is one factual error in the booklet, though: it says that this edition was derived from the original mixes by Shawn Murphy. But according to IMDB, Dan Wallin was the score mixer for this film; Murphy mixed the sequel. Factual error aside, this is a great set, and I'm happy to have it
  19. Received my package yesterday! I intend to fully dive into the musical contents and savor the alternate cues later this week, but just from the samples I've heard, this looks like a fantastic release and the definitive presentation of this score. It's also great to finally have the film version of "Subway Station" and, as a bonus, the Ralph Grierson piece (which I tried to identify on Shazam numerous times but without luck)
