Thor 7,519 Posted December 11, 2010 Share Posted December 11, 2010 I was going to phrase that as "You are a tough crowd", but I didn't like it.Ah, gotcha. Well, I don't think I'm more of a "tough crowd" than you or anyone else. But we all have our likes and dislikes, of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lonzoe 18 Posted December 11, 2010 Share Posted December 11, 2010 Oh yeah. I've been waiting for this reissue since FSM announced that they were rereissuing it. I missed out on the Rhino reissue. Plus my Poltergeist II TDE feels incomplete without it. Can't wait. Plus out of the recent Goldsmith reissues we've been getting lately. This and ST:V were more necessary for one moreso than First Blood since Poltergeist and ST:V were both OOP. While FB is still in print by Varese if I'm not mistaken. But I'm happy for those that want it, b/c of the sound quality and bonus music. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ollie 1,059 Posted December 13, 2010 Share Posted December 13, 2010 Varese doesn't hold the rights to First Blood anymore so those albums floating around should be gone. I'm surprised they are still in circulation.Wow, I will have my Poltergeist CD today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ollie 1,059 Posted December 13, 2010 Share Posted December 13, 2010 don't feel bad, I have a few other things, not film score related, that I was already expecting for Christmas, that are apparently on a tour of the entire United States. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ollie 1,059 Posted December 14, 2010 Share Posted December 14, 2010 The sound is excellent on this release, hearing instruments/ details I never heard on the Rhino release. Rebirth never sounded so good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ollie 1,059 Posted December 14, 2010 Share Posted December 14, 2010 Yes, if you are a huge enough Goldsmith fan to double dip and like the best sound possible.To me it's worth it. Does it sound like a 2010 recording? No, but it is improved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crocodile 8,018 Posted December 14, 2010 Author Share Posted December 14, 2010 Alright then, I believe you. I'm getting this as soon as I get my pay. I'm listening now to the Rhino and it does indeed sound a bit... muddy.Karol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unlucky Bastard 7,782 Posted December 14, 2010 Share Posted December 14, 2010 The Rhino was always muddy and muffled to my ear until I listened to it on my new Hi-Fi and it didn't sound as bad as I expected. I'll pick this one up after I get all the other limited stuff that's about to sell out soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ollie 1,059 Posted December 14, 2010 Share Posted December 14, 2010 I know Lukas had mentioned something along the lines of an idea they were floating around for later on down the line, if and when the first run sold out. But it looks like a second pressing of the box was what they wanted to do.The liner notes for Poltergeist also mention that Spielberg was considering Goldsmtih as his composer of choice before settling on Williams.

Datameister 2,044 Posted December 14, 2010 Share Posted December 14, 2010 Just a shame FSM can't offer S:TM independently.Seriously. That I would buy in a heartbeat. But with 3+ additional scores that I'm not too interested in and an accordingly high price tag, the Blue Box may remain on my to-buy list for quite some time.

Koray Savas 2,251 Posted December 14, 2010 Share Posted December 14, 2010 My parents asked me what I want for Christmas. The Blue Box popped into my head, but I think I'd rather have the iPhone they offered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OneBuckFilms 323 Posted December 14, 2010 Share Posted December 14, 2010 Just a shame FSM can't offer S:TM independently.I would EASILY go for that.If money were no object, the FSM Blue Box would be sitting on my shelf, or being played frequently.

Charlie Brigden 7 Posted December 14, 2010 Share Posted December 14, 2010 III is awful, although I'm basing my opinions on the film. I always liked II's pseudo-score. IV is okay. But again, I don't want them enough to pay that much money just to get one score. It'd be like making someone to buy the complete and remastered TMP by putting it in a box with IV, Generations and Insurrection. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jay 37,373 Posted December 21, 2010 Share Posted December 21, 2010 So does anybody actually have this CD?

Frank Vincent 234 Posted December 21, 2010 Share Posted December 21, 2010 I have it and love it. The sound quality is better than the Rhino release and it is nice to have the album presentation and the bonus cues. The liner notes are also fascinating to read.
