DarthArcher 0 Posted June 7, 2007 Share Posted June 7, 2007 If they're announcing it on Monday (which I thought they had already announced it or was that just the track listing) I wonder how much longer we'll have to wait until it is actually released?

Ollie 1,059 Posted June 8, 2007 Share Posted June 8, 2007 When Intrada anounces a release that means it's available for pre-ordering. It may be a few days before they are available to actually ship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bjarte 0 Posted June 8, 2007 Share Posted June 8, 2007 When Intrada anounces a release that means it's available for pre-ordering. It may be a few days before they are available to actually ship.as usual it means they release it the same day or the day after. I think that is the case here. I dont think we'll have to wait much longer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigMacGyver 0 Posted June 12, 2007 Share Posted June 12, 2007 In less than one hour this should be announced. And screenarchives indicates that they will announce more big releases along with the announcement of amazing stories.Here is the announcement of the announcements:June 11 - Big news this evening!

BigMacGyver 0 Posted June 12, 2007 Share Posted June 12, 2007 Certainly. I am just wondering how many big releases there will actually be. Amazing Stories, Percepto's Box... and maybe something else?

mahler3 478 Posted June 12, 2007 Share Posted June 12, 2007 Me too! There's something about the unique 80's sound of Williams that is so endearing!

King Mark 3,631 Posted June 18, 2007 Share Posted June 18, 2007 I'm listening to The Mission now...the sound is amazing that's for sure.Bootleg deleted.It a bit longer than the Varese re-recording and I always thought the music didn't match.For example "Broken Landing Gear" is a totally different cue .I think Mc Neely's track titles are off.Also "Off We Go" is only on this new set.the tempo and dynamics on this set are WAY better than the Mc Neely recording.I'll say it again...what amazing Williams at the peak of his powers.All of it it goosebump material.Little details ,there's this 3 second thing called "Amazing Stories Act Break".How does Williams come up with these.K.M.

fommes 153 Posted June 18, 2007 Share Posted June 18, 2007 I just watched The Mission (the episode) for the first time. Goofy ending but absurdly fitting. The rest was very good though. The Williams underscore also really stands out. Great to discover this kind of stuff two decades after the 80s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fommes 153 Posted June 19, 2007 Share Posted June 19, 2007 No I'm already long familiar with The Mission score - from McNeely's recording. It's the series I've recently bought on DVD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

King Mark 3,631 Posted June 19, 2007 Share Posted June 19, 2007 Before the Varese re-recording I had recorded the Landing cue on Minidisk from the Laserdisk as my only source for this score. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke Skywalker 1,795 Posted July 29, 2007 Share Posted July 29, 2007 Ok, since even and because of the mission bootleg, i got the idea that the main theme used in the series was recorded at the same time as 'The Mission' episode which i thought it was the pilot.Now i see that the 'Ghost Train' Episode is the 1st in the series, and the mission is 5th. So did Williams recorded everything (main titles, boths episodes) together or the main titles with ghost train or the mission, or all three in complete different sessions?I want to know because i would like to kow if the orchestra that played the main theme is the same as the mission or not ... i mean, ghost train is smaller and therefore uses a diferent assemble than that for the more full blown main/end titles and the mission...

The other two arrangements of the main theme were recorded with a smaller orchestra on April 15th 1985 with his score for 'Ghost Train'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Diego 21 Posted January 27, 2009 Share Posted January 27, 2009 So, here's the thing, I'm going to order Batman TAS from moviemusic.com and I was thinking about ordering something else (since I have to pay international shipping). Anyway I would like one of the Amazing Stories CDs, only I'm not sure which one, I'm leaning towards Vol.1 since it has Williams, Elfman and Horner all which I normally like, but Vol.3 also looks interesting. Any helpful comments?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
