I don't listen to commentaries nearly as often as I did back when this thread was started. I think last couple I did were Fincher on Zodiac and Whedon on The Avengers, both of which were excellent.

These are the ones I've listened to in the last two days:
The Land Before Time
Braveheart
Apollo 13

I predict I'll be buying more Horner scores in the weeks and months to come.
Me too. I'm realizing just how many great ones I don't have. I've already ordered An American Tale and The Perfect Storm.
The Amazing Spider-Man (I think this often gets overlooked but it's quite a nice little score. The relationship between Peter and Gwen gets a lovely theme and I love his main theme for Spidey. A much better effort than the monstrosity the second film received. Wish they had brought back Horner)
Agreed. "Lizard at School!" in particular is such a fantastic action cue.

Ugh, what terrible news.
Just today I was listening to Brazil, and I thought to myself what a tragedy it was to have lost Michael Kamen so early, when he surely had so much more great music in him yet to give. And now Horner today? It just feels awful.
Some of my earliest memories of loving a film's music are of The Land Before Time, even though I wouldn't know the name James Horner until years later. That score is still one of the dearest to my heart.

Dracula 19!

EDIT: D'oh. I see you already have that link.
At any rate, I've listened to a dozen or so of them. As mentioned, any of them from RandomHouse Audio will feature music from the OSTs.

What!?! You mean no 3D Dinorama packaging?

I blind buy any Williams and Giacchino. I don't know if I would necessarily buy every Giacchino album if I started today (although I've enjoyed every one so far), but when I began, it was just a few videogame and TV scores...

...Disc Two1. Strange Things Piano/Vocal Demo2. Plastic Spaceman Piano/Vocal Demo3. I Will Go Sailing No More Piano/Vocal Demo4. The Fool Piano/Vocal/Background Vocal Demo5. You've Got a Friend in Me Instrumental Version6. Strange Things Instrumental Version7. I Will Go Sailing No More Instrumental Version8. Thanking the Orchestra Spoken
Instrumental versions of the songs! Nice! I wish they'd include those on all of the releases.
Looks like there's about to be some serious Randy Newman karaoke up in my automobile.

A couple new acquisitions:
Iron Man. So now I have all of the Marvel Studios scores.
Also picked up The River on vinyl for cheap. I'm slowly starting to build a JW collection on vinyl, mostly from clearance shelf finds. So while I don't have any Star Wars or Indiana Jones, I do have things like Not With My Wife, You Don't! and Yes, Giorgio.

I'm really surprised this has not been done before now, but does anyone know how to edit Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves into film order with the existing (substandard) album presentation?
I don't remember where I found it, but here's the order I have it in:
1,4,5,2,3,6,7,8,9,10

The Amazon listing for Toy Story now confirms that it's 2 discs. That doesn't necessarily mean complete score, of course, but the OST was 54 minutes.
-
I was able to pick up FSM's Poseidon Adventure for a decent price shortly after LLL's release came out. There were a handful on eBay at the time from folks who didn't care about The Paper Chase, I guess.
-
I've been watching Amazon and eBay for so many years now trying to get Jaws 2 and The Towering Inferno at a good price, but to no avail... I think after the LLL title is announced, I'm gonna buy those two on vinyl so that I can at least have every score on some format. Both of those records can be had for around $10-$15 each.

I wonder if they even could rerelease the Ewoks scores at this point.

Just what we need here. More penis!
"Don't say penis in this house!"

So in addition to Intrada, Lady and the Tramp is now available on SAE and moviemusic.com, and probably others. There's a listing on Amazon too, but you can't order it yet.
-
Both cd's are rather easy to get on the secondary market and not outrageously expensive
Maybe we disagree on what is outrageous, but a copy of Jaws 2 rarely goes for less than $70. The cheapest one on Amazon at the moment is $95.
-
Djawadi's Iron Man is the only one I don't have—oddly, it's been out of print for years. So I can't speak for that one. Otherwise...
Doyle's Thor is probably my favorite. Incredible Hulk is a close second.
Least favorite might be Iron Man 2. The only stuff that really sticks with me is the Total Recall theme and the Richard Sherman piece.

The problem with comments such as these is that you don't know if the guy (DrewAtHitFix) is a film score fan or just some average moviegoer who thinks any film score with lots of drums is the best thing ever.
Literally two clicks from one of those tweets would lead you to 416 pages worth of articles he's written about film in just the last seven years.

I started to watch it on Netflix a while back, but I stopped when I realized they had cropped it from 2.35:1 to 1.78:1.
But now that I've thought of it again, I've just reserved the DVD at the library.
