Marian Schedenig 8,208 Posted September 18, 2008 Share Posted September 18, 2008 And look on the bright side, they're not going to pull a Peter Jacksonish move and release a boxset that's disgustingly expensive.Huh? They're charging $60 for a 4-disc set. For roughly the same price, you can get one of the LOTR sets which also include a DVD-A version in addition to the CDs.

Richard Penna 3,694 Posted September 18, 2008 Share Posted September 18, 2008 Depends how you define expensive, but in all 3 CR cases you're getting a lot for your money. As Marian pointed out, we're not getting a DVD with 5.1 and advanced resolution here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ollie 1,059 Posted September 18, 2008 Share Posted September 18, 2008 Don't forget the last 2 LOTR sets were originally listed for $75.00 before they were released. The prices eventually came down. I got both of mine for under $60.00 each.Barnes and Noble has it listed for $47.99 and has it at 4 discs as well.http://music.barnesandnoble.com/Indiana-Jo...72310001/?itm=3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trent B 337 Posted September 18, 2008 Share Posted September 18, 2008 Speaking of the C.R.'s for LOTR, I still need to pick up FOTR and TTT. I was gonna grab them in November but since this Indy box set is coming out and is limited that takes priority. Well at least I can still buy them in January. I gotta complete that collection. Also if Barnes and Noble lists it as that price then I'm sure the Amazon price will drop too just before the release date. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John McClane 1 Posted September 19, 2008 Share Posted September 19, 2008 I'm with KM about the LC boot. Last thing I really want to to is go filling in the gaps with those craptastic sounding cues. Hopefully if they're chosen well, we won't feel the need to.Of course I'm with both of you...By the way, it's weird that nobody, in all these years, has been able to fix somehow those bootlegs tracks. This is really old news but I thought it might be relevant to the subject of the box's price. No guarantee this is going to happen with the set though.As King Mark said (and I agree with him) I don't think that the KotCS CD will affect the box-set's price. They might be selling it at 5 bucks (or euros...) while I think that ToD and LC (that are the two most wanted expansions) will be like 20 bucks (like they was sold individually).Wouldn't it be funny if they put about 10 minutes on each disc of TOD & LC of Williams talking?No! <_< Plus I imagine the box itself might be a reason for the price.Indeed, I hope for that! Also, we already discussed the possible price. Check out this post of mine. I think it's a reasonable thought.Why are we worrying, really?Basically 1) because the Indiana Jones' music has never get the proper deserved treatment, and 2) because this is a message board, it's normal that people are worrying about anything. But I'm not really worried, a part the fear of not getting full 80 minutes CDs of ToD and LC. I just want the more music as possible, the more unreleased music as we can get.box set with Expanded Raiders ,Expanded ToD and Expanded Last Crusade .1 c.d. only for each score, and we don't know the amount of previously unreleased music yetBox set available for preorder at amazon for 59$No track list for ToD and LC yetThat's about it. Nice summary, but I warmly suggest to sit back, relax, and enjoy expecially King Mark's posts, about how the world is going to end if the Temple of Doom CD is going to be only 76 minutes long. It was already released? I wasn't aware of that.Karol Well, about time man...welcome to 13 years after 1995. I'm buying the box set because I don't have any of the previous Indy scores on CD at all.Why you don't have the other scores on CD? You're older than me!! How can you call yourself a John Williams fan! Thish ish intolerable!! We'll see complete and definitive 2-CD releases of all four scores sometimes in the future, you can bet on it.It would be cool, but I won't bet on it. This ain't Star Wars or Lord of the Rings. Which is bad, because I honestly think that Star Wars and Indiana Jones are, in John Williams whole career, the two products that showed JW's talent at the best. That's why it's a shame that Indy's music has never got a serious treatment (I mean, no Anthology, no 2 CDs Anniversary releases as Star Wars, etc...). Indy has the more variety and the more different memorable themes that any other JW scores has never has. Every action cue, love theme, characters theme, villain theme, funny cue and so on is memorable. I want everything!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jasonblueeyes 0 Posted September 19, 2008 Share Posted September 19, 2008 By the way, it's weird that nobody, in all these years, has been able to fix somehow those bootlegs tracks.I actually played around with mine a few years ago. I can't quite remember what I did. One thing I did do was I split The Belly Of The Steel beast OST track - I cut it at the 2:26 mark, added a second of fade out to it, right into the Tank Fight/pen is mightier then the sword track, then just resumed the rest of the Belly track. It's almost the complete Tank Chase sequence. I even played with the sound, giving it some clarity. But I think I adjusted the volume a bit too high. It sounds like an old record played about a hundred times, but some spots are clear, you can hear the pings in the music clearly, like the part where indy is riding the horse while shooting the tank, then riding up beside it, then leaping onto the tank. If I hadn't F-ed with the volume it'd sound OK. <_< Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll wait until then, hopefully I won't be paying more than $20 for this.Go ahead and wait for your gift card, but I'd go ahead and pre-order once you get that. I regularly order Doctor Who DVDs from Amazon, and if the price drops between when I pre-order and when it ships, they only charge me the lower price. I would imagine it's the same for any pre-order.

Realistically, LC is going to include a healthy dose of already released tracks. No Ticket has always been my least favorite cue from the OST. Keeping Up With The Joneses does not appear in the movie, so if they are going for a score as heard in the film experience then this should go.

davros72 1 Posted September 19, 2008 Share Posted September 19, 2008 Wow, I just cannot seem to write a sentence to put across the point I want to make...The previously released cues that they're gonna put on this set... in terms of the remastering... think they'll actually be noticeably "improved" from the original CD releases? If so, how much? And based on that, does their remastering make their inclusion (at the cost of unreleased cues we won't be getting in this set) at least tolerable? Assuming that we're not gonna get every single unreleased cue, is it OK that we're getting previously released cues remastered?Not sure why that was so hard for me to write. My brain must be tired, sorry. Trying to learn calculus at age 35 ain't easy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
