It would be a nice homage if Williams intervines both Marion and Willie Scotts’ romantic themes while segueing into each other and moving towards the end title coda. Since this will be the last Indy film Iam hoping he can do something special like he did with the TROS end titles.

I hope so too. Any idea if they will issue this on SACD as well? Although the Dolby Atmos set would be best substitute for the time being in multi channel.

I picked up some interesting titles back in 2010. Prices weren’t as crazy as now. The Herrmann NBNW re-recording is a worthy investment. I would have picked it up for trade.

What a neat idea! I had hoped that this would have happend. I think it’s the first time Williams has allowed a film piece to premiere in advance since he did Hedwigs Theme from the first Harry Potter film (pls do correct me if it happend again after that film)

Got a shipping delay message update from Presto : We regret that we have not been able to despatch your order, number 10124162, in the timescale originally quoted. However, we expect to do so within the next few days.

Just got my update from Presto. They fixed my shipping address. I suppose their customer service is legendary.

Yikes…! Better recheck the cd program. Maybe the pulled another AI ? Jokes asides..another headache for LLL to tackle.

In my haste of ordering this from Presto I forgot to add my city in the mailing address. So I had to email them to fix the error I made. As Jim said they have excellent service, I’m hoping they will revert to my query on Monday. The order confirmation however mentioned that my order will ship by 1st September. So hopefully it will be back in stock and ship to my fully updated address.

..But where and who is .......... Leia?

Update from LLL email flyer: "Our 40th ANNIVERSARY 2-CD re-issue of ET by John Williams starts shipping August 26. (Any orders with this title will begin shipping then)" P.S: Also available… our 2-CD 45th ANNIVERSARY re-issue of CLOSE ENCOUNTERS OF THE THIRD KIND and, newly back in-stock, our 4-CD JOHN WILLIAMS DISASTER MOVIE SOUNDTRACK COLLECTION BOX SET!

I think somebody did that list before. I’m sure I have it in my archives somewhere. I’ll try digging this out…

If anyone gets the set first, kindly put pics of the Bluray specs for more details. Thanks!

Ok. I checked with Jim Bowers who runs The Caped Wonder Superman website and his Facebook forums. He confirmed that Williams was ‘never’ asked to do the Donner’s Director Cut of Superman II.

Presto has the region free Blu ray. I'm hoping that CDJapan will put this out SACD like they did with Vienna and Berlin sets.

Yes we all know that.

Maybe it was part of the 'No Ticket' scene and then edited out.

I remember reading somewhere on Williams passing SUPERMAN RETURNS scoring assignment because of Christopher Reeve's untimely passing as they were both great friends. If that is true then this might be also for the same reason.

Thanks.Only got JP because of the new remastering.

Finally ...Touch down!! WILLOW arrived with a staggering delay.

How about Jerry Goldsmith - 2CD issue of INNERSPACE with OST? Also the non Williams Mike Matessino project ?

It could only mean something like all these things coming way of LLL? including STAR WARS? OMG ??? Did I decipher something...:) UPDATE: MV just clarified on FSM: https://www.filmscoremonthly.com/board/posts.cfm?threadID=148453&forumID=1&archive=0&pageID=1&r=288#bottom It means absolutely nothing. Jim, who designed it, was looking for images that were iconic and that were in flight. MV

Wait a sec. I think you are right. It’s just the album program I thinking of as a re-recording.

LIFEFORCE is terrific. Although I prefer the rerecording. This is Mancini in his full orchestral charge mode. Highly recommended. The fact that Kamens music contributed in the realization of its own album is a testament that its going to be a worthwhile purchase. This could easily have been a 3CD Set but I guess Kamens estate must have had a say in to get this into a separate release.

Some other time. I'm sure you can hone in on the details on the AFM rules website. I read it but it's kinda complicated etc. All that legal mumbo Jumbo....

Yes this is from an official source. Not a speculation.
