Ollie 1,059 Posted April 12, 2011 Share Posted April 12, 2011 I have 3 MOH CDs for sale and a promo of Rising Sun I'll throw in for free.For sale where?It just went on sale now that I have the press release. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay 37,372 Posted April 12, 2011 Share Posted April 12, 2011 I think the thing that appeals to me is the box set nature of it. It's a lovely presentation, very inviting to explore. I just don't know if getting to the end of it will fill me with satisfaction. I don't do video games. And I'm not sure about the other composers. I have Lennertz's Chipmunks score, but that's it.Well if you pretend the Lennertz and Djawadi scores aren't even in the box set, you're still getting 5 Giacchino scores for $55, so its still a bargain.The fact that they are composed for video games are irrelevant - this could just as easily be scores to movies that you've never seen. Listen to some youtube clips. Over in the LLL thread, our members posted their favorite ones a few pages back Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ollie 1,059 Posted April 12, 2011 Share Posted April 12, 2011 Jason is correct. The Giacchino scores are excellent and it's hard to believe they were written for a video game.I keep repeating this but they are better than 90% of most film scores written since 1999.

I have Lennertz's Chipmunks score, but that's it.You should take a listen of each of the scores before deciding. If they overall impress I would buy the box if I were you. It isn't very useful to have the box in the shelf collecting dust if it happens most of it does not appeal to you. I urge you to listen to the Frontline score which is a bit darker than the first two. Giacchino has great thematic writing going on that spans the entire score and the action pieces are in my opinion some of the best he has ever done.

Ollie 1,059 Posted April 12, 2011 Share Posted April 12, 2011 I haven't officially listed them, that was part of the joke.I am serious about selling them. I figure $30.00, you get MOH, MOH Underground with the Best Buy Logo on the front and MOH Frontline with the EA Logo. Plus I'll throw in MOH Rising Sun Promo for free. It's a composer promo with artwork but it is a CD-R. That's how it was sent to me. I received it as a gift when I ordered a bunch of CDs from one of the vendors 5 or 6 years ago.All that includes shipping and packaging as well.

Jacob 0 Posted April 12, 2011 Share Posted April 12, 2011 I like to have original versions AND re-released versions of scoresI don't get rid of original releases if I already own them, but I don't go buying them along with the newer ones you crazy loon. Do I need this? I'm not a huge Gia fan, and the stuff I've heard doesn't emotionally connect with me. It's nice, but... But everyone seems to love it so....I think the thing that appeals to me is the box set nature of it. It's a lovely presentation, very inviting to explore. I just don't know if getting to the end of it will fill me with satisfaction. I don't do video games. And I'm not sure about the other composers. I have Lennertz's Chipmunks score, but that's it.I haven't played the games, and don't even have a clue what Lennertz's scores sound like. A few years ago, before I was familiar with much of anything from Giacchino, I gave the original game's score a 'preview' after hearing it so highly praised here. It hooked me immediately, with the same appeal that a lot of the action material from Indiana Jones has. (Like . )So, I've kind of been waiting on a box set like this for a while now.And I shall have it. (80 minutes and counting...) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Koray Savas 2,251 Posted April 12, 2011 Share Posted April 12, 2011 Lennertz's scores are good. Giacchino's music is the main attraction to probably all of you, but I'm sure most will find something to like in the rest of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sometimes, you have to do a "hard-refresh" on LLL's home page to see the changes once they go live. To do that in firefox, hold down "shift" before clicking the refresh button Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jacob 0 Posted April 12, 2011 Share Posted April 12, 2011 From their shipping info page: http://www.lalalandrecords.com/ShippingInfo.htmlShipping and handling charges are calculated as follows:North America : $4.00 for the 1st cd and $1.00 for each additional CD.All orders will be shipped First Class mail via the United States Postal Service.ALL OTHER COUNTRIES: orders are sent air mail; add $8.00 for first disc and $2.00 for each disc thereafter.Then you have the homepage notice about "special shipping charges" being ADDED to the box set:The following special shipping charges will be added to each MOH BOX SET purchase: North America: $7.00. Foreign: $11.00.So, it's like Jason said. $11 ($4 + $7) is domestic, $19 ($8 + $11) if foreign.I was confused too. Thought I was only going to be charged $7 for shipping.Oh well, not a big deal. It'll be well worth it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
