Dean1700 4 Posted October 25, 2012 Share Posted October 25, 2012 I caved in and ordered it despite the high international shipping. I didn't want to miss out on this one like I did with Die Hard. Just waiting for Die Hard With A Vengeance now.I think LLL, SAE, and Varese all use flat rate boxes, which don't start lower than $4-$5. Easier for them I suppose, but it costs us an extra $2-$3. It doesn't cost more than a couple bucks to ship a single CD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fommes 154 Posted October 25, 2012 Share Posted October 25, 2012 Well, I've ordred Die Hard 2 and The Boy Who Could Fly at Varèse Sarabande and I had to pay $ 52,46 which is about € 40,50. If I had ordered from MovieMusic.com I had to pay $ 61.97 which is about € 47,80 and if I had ordered from Intrada I had to pay $ 61,48 which is about € 47,45. And if I ordered at Colosseum, the European distributor of Varèse, I had to pay € 52,90, So Varèse was the cheapest.I'm only interested in one of the Varese Clubs. In that case, you might as well add it to another order from another vendor, in which case it will be either as expensive or cheaper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ollie 1,064 Posted October 29, 2012 Share Posted October 29, 2012 Actually DH2 is a much better score and film than the 3rd.Not even Jeremey Irons could save that mess. And unless there was a ton of unused music tossed out of the 3rd film, it's basically a rehash of 1 & 2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trent B 337 Posted October 30, 2012 Share Posted October 30, 2012 I like all three Die Hard films (and scores). Live Free Or Die Hard has flaws but over all I enjoy it. A Good Day To Die Hard looks fun, hopefully it'll be better than Live Free Or Die Hard. I'm also glad they kept the same gal for Lucy McClane from the last film for the fifth.

Trent B 337 Posted November 10, 2012 Share Posted November 10, 2012 I got my copy from Peter (Movie Music) yesterday and I'm loving every bit of this score. I definitely noticed some tracking from other cues into other scenes. There's definitely some unused music in a few of the cues. I am actually liking this a bit more than the first Die Hard score.

crocodile 8,038 Posted November 14, 2012 Share Posted November 14, 2012 Got Die Hard 2 this morning. Now playing. Sounds terrific so far, a more easily enjoyable version of the first score. By which I mean it is much more of a straightforward action scoring, as opposed to more sneeky suspense of the first outing. Witty and exciting. Miss Kamen so much!Pity the notes are so sparse, though. Would love to read a detailed analysis of this one.BTW less than 350 copies left now folks! Action/thriller scoring doesn't get much better than this.Karol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
