Ollie 1,059 Posted November 6, 2012 Author Share Posted November 6, 2012 In regards to the final title, apparently it's not a huge release, meaning its not the 10 Commandments. Apparently the identity of the release has been released to a select few privileged people at FSM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Koray Savas 2,251 Posted November 6, 2012 Share Posted November 6, 2012 That's what everyone keeps saying but I really hope FSM pulls a fast one on us.I mean, this is Lukas' legacy, his disdain for the fans can't really be that bad, can it? In a perfect world, I would have liked a big countdown of the final releases, and for the finale, something special for which they did a big announcement ala LLL's Star Trek OS box.

Ollie 1,059 Posted November 6, 2012 Author Share Posted November 6, 2012 I don't think he has any disdain, he's just tired of running a label. He's still going to work with the other labels in getting scores out.But the titles he's releasing were ones already in the works. So unless he changes his mind, there never was an elaborate release planned. Whatever was in the works for #250, regardless of whether or not its the final FSM, is going to be released as the final disc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Koray Savas 2,251 Posted November 6, 2012 Share Posted November 6, 2012 Yeah I understand that, which is fine, but the for the last title nothing is stopping you from going, "Okay, let's do something special and pass on other opportunities that we were going to follow up on." Also their typical "We don't announce titles in case they fall through" is irrelevant at this point. Go out with a bang, I say.I recall him saying the reason he's quitting is because everyone on the forum always complains about the smallest problems and never appreciates the hard work they all put into the releases. That plus the whole Next Gen box set fiasco. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay 37,353 Posted November 6, 2012 Share Posted November 6, 2012 But that's the point, he didn't one day go "OK, I want to end my label soon. Let me go pick my 10 dream projects and release those, ending with the best one of all.".He one day went "Hmmm. Everything that's already started production now brings us to exactly 250 titles. I've been thinking about quitting this business anyway, and that's a nice number to end on. I think I won't begin work on any new projects now, and in a few months when a few of these titles have come out, and if I'm still sure about my decision, I'll let people know we're ending at #250 then." The projects come out in whatever order they happen to go through the various processes of passing clearance, masters arriving, masters being cleaned up, a presentation being sequenced, artwork being approved, and everything else. The order is NOT determined by ANYTHING else. Whatever #250 is happened to take the longest to finish. Would you have preferred he finished up work on King Kong and Body Heat then just let them sit there finished and ready to release for months until #250 was done just so something "better" could be #250? If so you're crazy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Koray Savas 2,251 Posted November 6, 2012 Share Posted November 6, 2012 I know this. I have no problem with them finishing up titles they were already working on. But for the last one, they could have chosen something in particular. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wojo 2,453 Posted November 6, 2012 Share Posted November 6, 2012 But they did. They chose the one that wasn't going to be followed by any more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wojo 2,453 Posted November 6, 2012 Share Posted November 6, 2012 The man who finishes a race last is the one who is not followed by anybody. He is not "chosen" at the start of the race, no, but as the race winds to a close and the final standing is basically in the books, whether anybody "chose" him to lose is immaterial.

Jay 37,353 Posted November 6, 2012 Share Posted November 6, 2012 It would have been nice if King Kong happened to be the last one to get approved, pressed, and released, but I for one am glad they released them as they got finished rather than holding off on one just to make it a "special" last one. Besides, whatever #250 is will be special to SOMEONE, and that's all that matters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Admiral Holdo 16 Posted November 6, 2012 Share Posted November 6, 2012 You have a point there, JasonThe impression I got was that the final 10 were more or less locked and in various states of production, and Lukas chose to end it there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Koray Savas 2,251 Posted November 6, 2012 Share Posted November 6, 2012 Yeah, and it would have been cool if the label did one more to end off on, where they chose the title for whatever reason it may be and hyped it up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay 37,353 Posted November 6, 2012 Share Posted November 6, 2012 I'm sure there are more reasons at play for Lukas wanting to end the label than have been made public. Lukas decided it was time to move on and he's doing so.Besides, it's not like he's leaving the business or anything, he's still producing CDs for Intrada and La La Land. He just needed to end his label for his own reasons and I totally respect him for that and I don't get why you don't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Koray Savas 2,251 Posted November 6, 2012 Share Posted November 6, 2012 I respect it, I understand it, ALL I'M SAYING IT THAT SOME HYPE WOULD HAVE BEEN COOL MMMKAAAY?? Even if the title is just another one, hype it up. Do a pre-annoucnement with a short video commemorating 250 releases with a little goodbye.

scallenger 483 Posted November 23, 2012 Share Posted November 23, 2012 Why are SAE's shipping rates as high as they are? I think what kills me is that they add an extra dollar for EVERY CD, and that goes for multiple CD sets... a 2-disc set takes up the same space as a 1 disc set and is hardly much heavier either. I can see them charging more for a BOXED set that is bigger and heavier. But I always found this whole "shipping per disc not ITEM" thing to be a bit of a reason to go elsewhere. I'm not really complaining, since we all have a choice. I just wonder why they chose it to be this way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scallenger 483 Posted November 26, 2012 Share Posted November 26, 2012 Well, the Cyber Monday sale is in session now!I ordered Jerry Goldsmith's "Islands In The Stream", which with the discount made it only $15! But while I was at it, I thought I better get at least an additional set of something else (though not on sale). I was in a tossup between "Star Trek: The Motion Picture" LLL set or the "Michael Crichton Collection: Coma, Westworld, Carey Treatment". The latter one, even though I really wanted the former, but the Crichton Collection is almost out of print, according to FSM, with only a little over 100 copies left.The funny thing is, both "Islands" and "Crichton" I used to own, but sold them both off almost 2 years ago while I was unemployed to try and get some extra bucks for some other things I wanted. I regretted selling both ever since, but never liked the idea of re-buying something like this. I was always waiting to find a cheaper price for both but never really did. So, this sale seemed as good a reason as any to finally bite the bullet and get them both back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
