I have seen it. I think it's quite good. I love biographies and this was a good means of learning more about Chaplin (if what we see is true). i see the film gets 7,5 at imdb, which I think it totally deserves it. The score was good too, but in the known Barry mode in which if you take a score from a film and paste it to another, it would fit there too.

Jay 37,336 Posted January 3, 2023 Share Posted January 3, 2023 MV says Happy to see the excitement over Charlie and Jason. As I mentioned in late 2022, after we release these 2 titles on January 13, we will be taking a hiatus of sorts in February and March. We plan to be back with our monthly slate of new releases starting on April 4, 2023. During that time, we will be playing catch up on all things internally and externally at the office. We also plan on bringing in titles that are currently OUT OF STOCK (not OUT OF PRINT). So, expect to see a lot of final batches of titles coming in during the next few months. Bram Stoker's Dracula is the first title to come back in stock. It is the final batch, so once it sells out it's gone for good. Hot on the heels of Drac, will be Danny Elfman's scores to MISSION IMPOSSIBLE and DARKMAN. BOTH titles are going out of print. These will be the final batch for these two amazing scores. Once they sell out, they will be gone for good. Expect MI 1996 and DARKMAN to be back in stock and up for sale in late January. We aim to bring back in at least a dozen or so OUT OF STOCK titles over the next few months. Some of these titles include DIE ANOTHER DAY THE WORLD IS NOT ENOUGH TITANIC CASPER TRANSFORMERS LAST KNIGHT THE SWARM FIELD OF DREAMS LESS THAN ZERO As to when these titles will be back in stock and ready to ship, I don't know. As soon as I do, I will be posting about their availability. Hope you all had a fabu Holiday Season! Happy New Year!

It’s really, really good. Might be Robert Downey Jr’s greatest performance as an actor, honestly. And I think the score may be Barry’s greatest (if perhaps not my favorite) after Dances With Wolves. IMO it fits the film perfectly and not in a generic way. I think he was inspired. Hear @Jay; check out the opening sequence of the film. This is not one-size-fits-all Barry; to me it seems very specifically tailored to this film: Yavar Jay and MikeH 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh look, John Williams. Guitar player? Can't see any guitars on the front, must be the other one. He did Star Wars right? Oh yeah... erm... there's 9 of them and they all say Star Wars. Let's just pick... this one. Tomorrow Never Dies - Ooh this looks like a Bond film. Is that one with Roger Moore? Doesn't look old enough. What about that guy who only did one? Nah, it looks like that guy who was in Mamma Mia, great singer too... ugh, can't remember what Bond films he was in though. Aren't they usually in a casino? Oh yeah, sounds like a good bet. Red Sonja - What now? Was that the one who did Eurovision in 1993? Is she red? Oh wait, it also says Ennio Morricone. Didn't he do all those westerns? Oh yeah... can't find any like that. What about that other one with the panpipes. Ah yeah, The Mission. Close enough. The 'Burbs - Jerry Goldsmith? Never heard of him. Ah fuck it, they can find their own artwork for that...

You know, the only case where I've done that is the Sleepy Hollow bonus tracks where I liked the Horseman alternate cover. Until about a year ago I settled for a nice 800x800 image but then I found one cover hosted (but not linked to anywhere) on Varese's hosting site at over 3000 resolution. That triggered a hunt for mega-high-res versions of all DEs I have, and generally a raid on CoverArtExchange for other scores. So yeah, while most around here have other 'bugbears' in terms of releases, such as pinpoint accurate metadata, mine is perfect as possible cover art, as I display it using an app in the corner of one of my monitors.

I'm pretty picky on meta data (although more so for classical) but same on cover art. Usually aim for 800x800 as well, although often the Spotify artwork is the best available and that's a pretty acceptable 640x640. In fairness, I don't think my cover art is ever displayed big enough that 800x800 is necessary but it seems a decent size to stick to in a quality versus data metric (just annoying that iTunes can't tag a single image file to all tracks it's attached to rather than attaching it each track individually, this massively multiplying the storage images take up, especially when it inexplicably converts them to PNG which it often, but not always, does for... reasons). I do often use custom cover art where it's better than (or an enhanced version of) the original artwork, but like to have different artwork for the main programme, original album, bonus tracks, sources cues etc. if the album has such things and there is a range of artwork. I think Sleepy Hollow was one of the several I had trouble picking artwork for as there are a lot of great custom covers around. Things like Star Wars and Avatar etc., have similar issues... some amazing digital graphic designers out there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard Penna 3,679 Posted January 13, 2023 Share Posted January 13, 2023 The big franchises are hell, in that there's usually no 'definitive' cover art, taking the different versions into account. As you say, very often the fan ones are better than the official ones. I'll never know the mindset of whoever thought the JP Dominion cover was acceptable, given all of the artwork at their disposal. I also use Spotify as a fallback if all else fails - 90% of the time their art is fine and 640 is perfectly acceptable for most cases. The only metadata I'm bothered about, apart from the standard (album, artist, track name) is album artist because that's important to getting albums to show correctly in PowerAmp, and I had to do a lot of retagging when I started using that app. Tom Guernsey and Tallguy 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A. A. Ron 1,742 Posted January 15, 2023 Share Posted January 15, 2023 Also even if a specialty label somehow got to release it, it would be Intrada.

4lb4t4rd29 1 Posted January 16, 2023 Share Posted January 16, 2023 Thanks for your comments, guys ! Hm, right, I forget that was a Disney franchise, crap! . However, they can possibly release an official edition a bit like "WD Records Legacy"... I don't know, I just imagine. Or by Intrada, why not ! For my part, "complete 100%" or not, I almost don't care, because if Zimmer can release at least tracks never heard who can be officialized in these 3 editions, that would be nice. And yes, about Klaus Badelt, that would be a small pitty ; concerning CotBP, historically Badelt only had his name written on the main cover to be a bit better well-known...that's actually Zimmer who composed and produced (globally/mainly) the 3 scores of these 3 first films. Badelt, Zanelli, Djawadi, Jablonsky, (Nefertiti - wot ????) etc. only were his "pupils" at these times, for additional musics... :') So, anyway, even today that doesn't change anything about asking to the composers for a possibly released like this one. Each composers would be payed for the works they've done. #WaltDisneyRecordscopyright... That's my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A sessions leak is an unofficial leak of the raw, unmastered recordings. A proper expansion would be mastered by a mastering engineer to the satisfaction of the album producer (in this case, that would likely be Zimmer). So if Zimmer wanted the mastering engineer to brickwall his expansions, the mastering engineer would brickwall those expansions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
