Man, we're a tough group. We also tear apart the ads.

Are things so dire at LLL that they can't even afford a Shutterstock subscription? And do they know there are websites where they can get some of these pictures for free, like Pexels? 

 

Actually, scrap that, just ask AI to create an image of a fire, and use the BB poster as a reference. Geez, it's not that hard. And they wouldn't embarrass themselves online.

 

That's not even mentioning the horrendous design choices, like the font and the Black text over the fire. This is truly amateurish work. Even if they don't have the money to hire a freelance designer for their social media, but come on, AI does it for free.

 

You think this wasn't ironically low effort? It's like Charli XCX's brat album cover.

 

Either that or they employed the design team from the John Williams Anthology box set to handle their social media.

The label heads complaining about when fans point out errors suddenly makes a lot more sense if this is most of what they see in the comments

I think this may all be part of an elaborate trick. The fire is there to mislead us. The watermark is the real clue.

 

Watermark...

 

Watcha = Water

 

Gonna do = Gonad dew

 

...

 

 

It has to be James Newton Howard's Lady In The Water.

James Newtown Howard’s gonads are with a lady in the water because they were on fire. Logic.

I'd rather they avoid anything AI. Didn't catch the watermark but that's funny.

Lack of quality control?

It feels deliberately nostalgic to the late 90's/early 2000's. Which is possibly the point.

[Jay 45,771]

The titles were indeed Bad Boys and Bad Boys II, each 2-CD sets priced at $33 each, or available as a bundle for $56 ($10 savings)

[Dr. Rick 1,358]

Wonder if these were the delayed BF 2025 releases?

[Stark 973]

Very cool. A few OOP titles back in stock as well - I just picked up Schifrin's Planet of the Apes.

[Jill Sandwich 11,000]

Should've just reissued Bad Girls instead.

Damn ordered both and didn’t know they offered a bundle deal! Bet I’m not the only one… thanks for the heads up.

[CinderTech 1,769]

It is interesting that the autograph is seemingly only mentioned with the bundle, unless I missed it on the BB1 page

[CatastrophicJones 153]

Just ordered the bundle. I've been waiting for a proper stereo release of Bad Boys. I love that main theme!

The 30th anniversary of the Bad Boys release was back in April of last year, so I wonder if these expansions have been in the works for a while.

Sorry if this has been mentioned already, but 3 of the 4 X-Files volumes are back in stock. Very excited as I’ve always regretted not getting these. Now to find the missing Vol. 2…

Hard to tell at this point, isn't it. We got The Reivers and Gladiator around this sort of time last year, so huge stuff clearly happens outside of BF.

 

It would be great if these weren't planned for BF, as it means some more notable stuff is still to emerge soon. Although if that's the case, it means those approvals are approaching, what, five months behind schedule? (assuming they need approvals at least several weeks prior to announcement).

[CinderTech 1,769]

[Jfallon 150]

Really hoping Lala has more in store for us before March’s end. 

[Trope 1,425]

Yeah, hope they release more before WW3 is officially declared!

[NewBlueEyes 220]

Hey Orville fans! Guess what? Chris Siddall will be hosting the episode of The Chain this Sunday/Monday (depending living in the different countries). We're gonna be looking at one of the cues from the show, whether it's season 1 or 2 or 3: New Horizons. If you want to join in the livestream, click on the video link and hit the notification button so you all won't miss the big chance of which composers in what episodes. Don't forget to share this with other great music fans too.

Uh... too soon?

[Rachael Foley 10,001]

 

Fielding's The Bad News Bears and Barry's Diamonds are Forever.

[bollemanneke 4,317]

Well at least I know now that even if their BF had gone as planned, it wouldn't have been for me.

[Yavar Moradi 4,357]

DAF clearly isn’t a delayed BF title. It would have been too soon, anniversary-wise.

 

Yavar

[Brando 2,760]

Close Encounters is back in stock too, I’ll probably pick that up.

[Jill Sandwich 11,000]

You pick that up.

But it's all soft and steamy.

[Richard P 5,234]

We may never know the full intended BF batch. We got Gladiator one year ago tomorrow, so big stuff could happen any time.

 

I do wonder whether they announced today rather than tomorrow, to avoid any April 1st shenanigans.

Definitely. It's catalog number 1687, which along with Bad News Bears (1689) are the highest numbers out, so recent adds. 

 

Catalog numbers 1677 and 1682 would presumably be the Black Friday titles that still aren't out - plus the still not out 1640 from 2023 BF.

[Andy 7,520]

Can they print replacement booklets for LALD and Octopussy without that wretched border they since abandoned?

 

 

[LongTallJodie 75]

Oh nice, absolutely picking up Diamonds, and finally getting a hard copy of Close Encounters.

No.

[Jurassic Shark 16,346]

Those borders are the best part of the cover art. 

[#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 12,148]

Its the only reason i bought any of them.

[Andy 7,520]

I’m going to draw my own on the others to match. 

[bruce marshall 1,968]

[Jurassic Shark 16,346]

That's actually quite good!

[Marian Schedenig 11,592]

It has a very uneven border.

[Bryant Burnette 786]

Got an order in for Diamonds with King Solomon's Mines to go along with it.

Will it be here soon? Because it seems like it's taking FOREVER.

[johnmillions 156]

I'm so confused...!

 

I purchased from a seller on eBay named "lllrecords" as recently as August 2025. Later, when that same seller changed its username to "fostersoundtracks", I figured that it was still LLL and there was some reason that they wanted their eBay store to be "unofficial". 

 

So I sent "fostersoundtracks" a question about another seller on eBay who may be selling illegitimate LLL albums. And "fostersoundtracks" responded:

 

 

And here's how "fostersoundtracks" appears:

 

Well, I have forwarded my original message to info@lalaland-ent.com (which is what I should have done in the first place). Maybe I should ask who "fostersoundtracks" is while I'm at it...

[Slitherjump 148]

I can’t find it anymore, but I remember reading in a Facebook comment from MV that it was originally made by them, but then they gave it to someone else. It’s a little confusing because apparently the shipping address is still the same as La-La Land’s?

[scallenger 663]

Why would they give an eBay account to someone else? That's really odd.

[Andy 7,520]

My advice would be don’t rock the boat.  Suffice it to say Fostersoundtracks is a secondary market seller that isn’t legally bound the way LLL is.  Don’t question it, relax, and just enjoy the benefits. Fostersoundtracks is not La-La Land Records.
