Ollie 1,106 Posted November 30, 2010 Share Posted November 30, 2010 I expect Star Trek V to go the quickest. Home Alone might go first because of the fewer # of copies.But I think you might be seeing more people waiting to combine titles with the holiday coming, so they might risk waiting and watching how fast the titles dwindle down before ordering.

There's source music in the scene where Kevin goes shopping and the scene where Kate meets Gus Polinski at the airport. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crocodile 8,358 Posted December 1, 2010 Share Posted December 1, 2010 Alright, I ordered this one as well. I realized that it's kind of weird to get something else (Batman Returns) and not a JW score, especially the one I haven't got yet. So I decided to correct my mistake... No, I'm joking. I just got some extra money.It's going to be great Christmas for me. Two John Williams releases and a quintessential Elfman score of my childhood. Yay! Now if only there is some extra bit of cash for ST V... Karol - who decided to cancel Arnold's Narnia order... it can wait... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's possible you won't get a shipping conformation, but that doesn't mean you won't get it. Also, there's a link in the order conformation e-mail where you can check the status of your order.

Trent B 340 Posted December 2, 2010 Share Posted December 2, 2010 Ordering directly from LLL would be faster. SAE would have to wait for their shipment to get in then they start sending their orders out to people who ordered from them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trent B 340 Posted December 2, 2010 Share Posted December 2, 2010 OK! I will order this today from LLL...I hope I have it before Christmas!You will. I believe they ship Priority Mail so it should take about 3-4 days to get to you.Edit: I'm looking at the cues "Clothesline Trapeze" (from my own CD rip) in Cool Edit and if people wanted the film version insert instead of the original that's presented in the cue, it won't be too hard to replace at all.

Josh500 1,616 Posted December 2, 2010 Share Posted December 2, 2010 Great! Somehow I am looking unreasonably forward to this... meaning the missing music is not much to speak of, but this is such a nice-looking edition with a great booklet that I can't help feeling that way. I will probably enjoy this more than FP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trent B 340 Posted December 2, 2010 Share Posted December 2, 2010 It's actually a very nice presented release. I'm glad they actually presented the cues "Walking Home" and "We Wish You A Merry Christmas / End Titles" with out the chorus overlays. So that way if people wanted to strictly have just John Williams' music they have that option.Oh and also the shorter cues that they joined together as one cue (like 3 or 4 short ones) to avoid huge reuse fees, they left enough space in between the actual pieces of music so you can separate them properly if you wanted to.

Josh500 1,616 Posted December 2, 2010 Share Posted December 2, 2010 Come to think of it (in retrospect, as it were), Home Alone and Home Alone 2 are among JW's greatest scores. I bought HA OS about 12 years ago, but I still enjoy it (on occasion). Amazing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So that way if people wanted to strictly have just John Williams' music they have that option.We wish you a merry christmas seems to have choir in both versions, doesnt it?I dont see much point in putting tracks without choir. Now, instrumental versions, that's a different matter, but dialing out choir makes no sense, the tracks were composed to have choir. (speaking about soundtracks in general)anyway, since most of the times these kind of tracks do not 'eat' any cd space for actual score, it doesnt matter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ollie 1,106 Posted December 2, 2010 Share Posted December 2, 2010 Well it's probably just the cues without the lyrics. Much like Varese did with Merry Christmas, Merry Christmas.They didn't dial anything out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TownerFan 4,998 Posted December 2, 2010 Share Posted December 2, 2010 And it makes sense, as chorus and orchestra are generally recorded on different separate takes (even though sometimes Williams likes to record them together, if time and schedule permit).

Now, instrumental versions, that's a different matter, but dialing out choir makes no sense, the tracks were composed to have choir. (speaking about soundtracks in general)But it's cool! Also, one awesome side effect of including versions with and without choir is that (if they're the exact same orchestral recording) you can isolate the choir, too. So it's really three tracks (orchestra, choir, orchestra+choir) for the price of two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
