(I’ve only heard the OST for the original) If you enjoy the first score, you'll like how the second one expands on the theme pallet and allows the overall soundscape to grow up. A collection of new material is indeed and that is what dominates with the original themes being cleverly interwoven as well. Powell's orchestral abilities definitely increased between the films and it reflects very well the passage of time between the two films. And that happens once again with the third movie. 😀 Karol Tom Guernsey, Edmilson and Andy 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 2nd Deluxe is still a good release and a good expansion, whereas the 1st Deluxe was definitely a huge improvement on a technical level over the initial OST release. Andy, Tom Guernsey and A. A.

Karol Pay it forward means that when someone does something for you, instead of paying them back, you pay it 'forward' and do something nice for someone else, creating a chain of goodness The movie's good but the score is Newman at his most experimental and would not be on anyone's list for expansion.

Manakin Skywalker 4,891 Posted November 16, 2022 Share Posted November 16, 2022 Google detects the first image (from a Korean stock image site) as (converted to English) "parents mirror their children" and the second one as "attorney and client confidentiality".

I did recall that for one of the Scream scores that original short twofer album had some cue that wasn't included on the initial DE... 13 hours ago, Jay said: And they did The Cowboys twice, which is a score that had no OST album so its basically two different catalog approaches I mean, the original one was only a half hour album still because of reuse fees or whatever, and it basically served as an OST just long after the film came out. 13 hours ago, Jay said: I didn't know those were incomplete! They aren't but they have terrible brickwall mastering (courtesy of Erick Labson I think) and they sound far worse than the original issues. Raggedy Man (the Encore Edition) has a milder version of this problem too...I'd gladly rebuy a chronological reissue with better sound of that too.

Jay 37,287 Posted November 17, 2022 Share Posted November 17, 2022 There is zero reason to expect that tomorrow' CD version announcement will be any different than what they put up on digital/streaming sites Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yavar Moradi 2,590 Posted November 17, 2022 Share Posted November 17, 2022 Here are some reasons: 1. In early 2018 Varese Sarabande ended the Encore Edition line in their limited Club series, and claimed they were done with straight reissues as Club titles. (This was also reiterated to me in further detail privately a couple years ago, when I brought up some things with Cary that I thought Varese should consider reissuing.) 2. Digital rights (and sometimes streaming rights specifically) are, simply put, different/distinct from CD rights. Look at the recent release of Silvestri's Death Becomes Her: The Deluxe Edition. CD only, while the simultaneous expansion of Silvestri's Tomb Raider - The Cradle of Life: The Deluxe Edition got premiered on CD and digital at the same time. The obvious reason why is that Varese's perpetuity agreement for one included digital rights and for the other it didn't. 3. Similarly, in the past Varese has reissued a classic album on LP, with no expansion, and then a little later released an expansion on CD (Rudy is one example, and I think The Iron Giant might be another?) -- again, different formats, different rules. I'm not saying it's definite, but I think it's *possible* that Varese somehow had digital rights for the existing program of Mimic (released by them now twice on CD), but getting digital rights for the previously unreleased music was too expensive at this time (or something -- it could be that the studio was willing to grant digital rights when they produced their earlier expansion, but wasn't willing this time), and it could be a limited CD exclusive. Just speculation on my part, but it would be *extremely* strange for them to have a THIRD release of Mimic in the same expanded program as they released on CD twice before, as a new Club release...especially when there's a good chunk of music still missing (including a bit of music that was on the original short 90s album!)
