Charlie Brigden 7 Posted December 8, 2008 Share Posted December 8, 2008 Just read on the FSM forum that the Batman TAS series discs have come in early and anyone who ordered from La La Land have started shipping early... but those of us who got signed copies have to wait till their signed liner notes arrive.Link to FSMJ MossWeird, that link didn't work for me. Hopefully this means I'll get it in time for Christmas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wojo 2,453 Posted December 10, 2008 Share Posted December 10, 2008 I wonder how soon those ordered from MovieMusic will ship...(rushing over to Hotmail to check for a message)...nothing yet. Oh well, I'm a patient soul. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
artyjeffrey 20 Posted December 10, 2008 Share Posted December 10, 2008 I'm listening now, and so far it's fantastic. I have the animated series volumes on dvd, but I never realized how great this stuff was.I was glad that the opening "Gotham City Overture" had that little bit with the whistling and flatulent brass from that episode when that wimpy guy got involved with the Joker. Remember?The sound quality is very warm. Again, it's amazing that this was for a cartoon.P.S.-- the thunderclap sound effect is present at the end of the opening title.

Romão 2,274 Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 I've been listening to the Batman set lately. This is such great stuff.

tharpdevenport 4 Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 From a FilmScoreMonthly.com message board post:Mine came yesterday, and it's fantastic. But in the main title, you can still hear the lighting blot at the end. Ha, ha. What gives? Is there an instrument that sounds like a lighting blot, or something?No, I just wanted that in this volume. I LOVE IT! It's like a cymbal crash -- BATMAN STYLE!MVSo Volume 2 will have it clean.

Koray Savas 2,251 Posted January 16, 2009 Share Posted January 16, 2009 You are embracing temptation to buy Batman: The Animated Series? Go buy a crap load of JW scores. I found this a couple days ago and decided to download it. It was a bitch to enter all the track names, especially since Disc 2 wasn't in order. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wojo 2,453 Posted January 16, 2009 Share Posted January 16, 2009 LaLaLand itself takes Paypal. SAE also takes PayPal and I didn't have a problem with my order. I thought it took way too long to get here, but it's just as well because I haven't listened to my Batman yet anyways, so not really a problem.If you are typing out track names for each of your MP3s by hand, you are doing it wrong. All you need is MP3Tag, which is free, and a source file, like the track listing, which is available at LaLaLand's website. It can import a tracklisting from a test, csv, or spreadsheet.

Koray Savas 2,251 Posted January 16, 2009 Share Posted January 16, 2009 I'd rather type them in by hand. It doesn't happen that often anyway, but when it does I like to make sure it's accurate and everything is spelled correctly. Besides, Disc 2 was out of order so the way you explained wouldn't have worked. I had to match them up by track times. A couple cues had the same times though, so I kinda guessed on those Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jay 37,368 Posted January 17, 2009 Share Posted January 17, 2009 Anybody interested in the Batman TAS set should absolutely buy it instead of downloading illegal mp3s of it. Besides the fact that the money would go to a good corporation that has been doing a great job releasing scores that might not otherwise get released, and you'll have a cool collector's item that many others won't have, it's just a well put together set with a great booklet full of stuff. Well worth your $.The blue box is well worth it to. There's NO reason to get the Rhino Superman instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You guys should technically blame another member here because I wouldn't have been able to download it without him/her.Intrada, FSM et al. don't rake in huge profits. Their revenue from limited releases is dependent entirely upon how many of the batch are sold. If you pirate a CD while it is still in print, you are potentially contributing to the full stock never being sold. Once a limited release sells out, that's it for the record company. They won't make any more money off of it, so downloading, CD-R trading etc. has no effect on them. Batman: TAS will probably sell out, but that's not so for every limited release.
