Ollie 1,059 Posted September 12, 2008 Share Posted September 12, 2008 http://www.intrada.net/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=2044No clues will be given and it's a 5000 copy unit, also it's a holy grail that has been on many people's lists.Could Back To The Future finally be released or perhaps Spartacus?

Trent B 337 Posted September 12, 2008 Share Posted September 12, 2008 Interesting, I shall keep an eye on this one. The 23rd, eh? Well that's a week or so before I get paid. Depending on what it is, if it is Back To The Future I will be sure to buy a copy of it through Movie Music. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scissorhands 16 Posted September 12, 2008 Share Posted September 12, 2008 I really hope it's Spartacus I doubt it though... it'll probably be Back to the Future or Young Sherlock Holmes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Mark 3,630 Posted September 12, 2008 Share Posted September 12, 2008 Family Plot?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ollie 1,059 Posted September 12, 2008 Author Share Posted September 12, 2008 Actually I think it's going to be a Silver Age score, probably in the 1970 to 1990 range. They're doing 5000 so that probably means the film or score was a big one. So unless Intrada managed to crack Paramount's vaults or got a good Goldsmith score (Boys From Brazil, Gremlins or Innerspace), I'm gonna go with BTTF.Some, including myself, believe that Varese will be the one to release Spartacus. Perhaps for Robert Townson's 1000 CD that is coming up early in 2009. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
indy4 155 Posted September 12, 2008 Share Posted September 12, 2008 Sweet! FP and BTTF all seem likely releases, and I would definetly order either of they were released. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Mark 3,630 Posted September 12, 2008 Share Posted September 12, 2008 I'd get Gremlins ,but I hardly consider InnerSpace a holy grail of any kind Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scissorhands 16 Posted September 12, 2008 Share Posted September 12, 2008 Not enough, it won't be Family Plot. Maybe a 3 disc edition of Hook, but I see it rather unlikely, so I'll go for Back to the Future like Mark Olivarez. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Mark 3,630 Posted September 12, 2008 Share Posted September 12, 2008 I think Family Plot has rightfully earned it's place as a Holy Grail. It's always been mentionned because it has some great music and one of the few post 1975 unreleased JW score.I mean some people are starting to add "Link" in Holy Grail lists just because it's a rare Goldsmith album even if it totally sucks .

bruckhorn 105 Posted September 12, 2008 Share Posted September 12, 2008 Hey, something new to have us guessing about while we await word from Concord.If Intrada is pressing 5,000 copies of something, it had better be something that will leave a lot of us saying, "Finally!"Sorry, King Mark, but Family Plot does not fit that bill. I'm not even sure Spartacus fits that bill (and I would be quicker to pick up Spartacus than I would Family Plot).More likely Back to the Future, but I'm not willing to put my money on any guess. Remember how Intrada gave clues before releasing WarGames?Wait and see is the way for me.Oh, yeah, I am Spartacus.See this is what I mean by showing obsession about Williams' work and it's quite scary. "Obsession" - Bernard HerrmannThat's from Vertigo, right? (If I was at home, I could look it up.)And Hitch, I miss the banjo playing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Romão 2,274 Posted September 12, 2008 Share Posted September 12, 2008 Spartacus would be a much much much much more stunning release than Back to the Future. I'd gladly buy either of them, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GrizzlyAdams 0 Posted September 13, 2008 Share Posted September 13, 2008 I disagree strongly that Back To The Future isn't "even close" to being a masterpiece. BTTF is probably the first time I ever noticed film music. And I was probably around 5 years old when I first saw the film. There are cues in that score that have been lodged in my mind ever since. And I'm not trying to claim that because it got me into film music it's a masterpiece.... but there is such a strong visual connection between the music and the film. If I play a bunch of Star Wars cues to my friends they'll all smile and say "cool, it's Star Wars." Sometimes they'll know which piece it is, like the Tie Fighter attack, or Binary Sunset, but many times I've played BTTF stuff in the car, or at home, and friends which are pretty much clueless when it comes to film scores, and often look at me weird when they hear what I listen to most, have instantly quoted lines from the point in the film it's from. Most recently it was "Damn, where is that kid?!" At the end of the day, the art of film scoring is to write music which compliments the images. BTTF does this brilliantly, and I certainly regard it as a masterpiece. And please do correct me if I'm wrong, but wasn't BTTF recorded with the largest orchestra ever assembled for a film? (Up to that point.) That's pretty special. Again, not a reason to label it a masterpiece, but it's certainly something worth noting. Anyway, that turned into many more words about BTTF than I had planned to write! But, I don't think Intrada will be releasing it this time round. If they do, I'll be running in the streets, screaming with joy. (or maybe just strolling, whispering a little "yay" to myself.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
indy4 155 Posted September 13, 2008 Share Posted September 13, 2008 Oh, I consider to be a good score, maybe even great, but I don't consider it to be nearly as good as some do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vaderbait1 1 Posted September 13, 2008 Share Posted September 13, 2008 Film score fans always talk about Family Plot, it's like this crazy obsession. I find no reason to want this score more than any other. If it comes out, fine, but to wait anxiously for it? There are MUCH better things out there, including a BTTF release.But we all know this will be some obscure 80s sci-fi knockoff film and not anything most people would recognize.

pixie_twinkle 48 Posted September 13, 2008 Share Posted September 13, 2008 I remember watching BttF in theaters and thinking that the score was pretty good but nowhere near the masterpieces that were beeing produced in those days .The music to Back to the Future blew me away back in 1985. It still knocks my socks off 23 years later. I'd call it a masterpiece for sure. Were there really that many better scores in 1985? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ollie 1,059 Posted September 13, 2008 Author Share Posted September 13, 2008 But most it is released in the Silva suiteYeah 13:00 minutes out of 55:00 constitutes most of a score.

King Mark 3,630 Posted September 13, 2008 Share Posted September 13, 2008 It gave me the impression of beeing bombastic but a whole level below what Williams ,Goldsmith and Horner wrote in those days .But by today's fllm score standards it's a masterpiece.

John Crichton 4 Posted September 13, 2008 Share Posted September 13, 2008 I used to think BttF was overrated, until I listend to it both a bit more often and a bit closer and realized just how much good stuff there is going on in that score beyond the main theme, which itself is an undeniable masterpiece.
