thx99 1,740 Posted December 4, 2015 Share Posted December 4, 2015 Well anyways, since the iTunes listing also has 23 tracks, to me this means:1. The tracklist that was briefly up on Amazon was real, and they weren't supposed to put it up, so they were asked to take it down. Disney has sent the OST to Apple, and they were instructed to not list the track names or times until the 18th.2. The tracklist was fake, and someone at Apple chose to list it as 23 tracks because he saw that tracklist, just so the entry wouldn't be blank like Amazon's.FWIW, Ark Soundtrack Square still has the 23-track listing up for both the US and Japanese release of the CD.

Not Mr. Big 4,639 Posted December 4, 2015 Author Share Posted December 4, 2015 I hate to be the King Mark here, but that bit about the producers essentially rejecting Williams' music in favor of trailer house music has gotten me really worried. Especially with the 30 minutes of music not in the film.I never thought the studios would stoop that low but after hearing of the teaser 2 business and some of the atrocious music they've used for the TV spots, I'm willing to believe anything.

Jay 37,352 Posted December 4, 2015 Share Posted December 4, 2015 The only reason is if you have money now, but think you won't on the 18th.

Gruesome Son of a Bitch 6,488 Posted December 4, 2015 Share Posted December 4, 2015 Oh.It just seems kinda stupid to me. Pre-ordering makes sense when it's a physical copy of something that might sell out and you want to guarantee you get one on the day of release. It ain't like TFA score is going to break the iTunes servers or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Between length and track number, it looks like it will probably be a "complete" replication of the film's narrative, or so I hope. I am more willing to let missing big highlights slide when that is the case, if it is the case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrbellamy 6,285 Posted December 5, 2015 Share Posted December 5, 2015 So I wonder if the tracks are just going to stay anonymous until the 18th, or if they'll put up the tracklist soon.

So they're probably pretty reliable.

I believe we haven't yet seen a single negative review of the score.It IS a fantastic score!!...no one will be disappointed!...Saved for later...I suppose it is possible that for those working on the recording of the score, most of the modern film music is so low quality that Williams' stuff, even not at his best, sounds incredible to them and that's why we're getting all these positive reviews.
