mstrox 6,650 Posted June 1, 2016 Share Posted June 1, 2016 The reason that there has not been a "proper" release of Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone, for instance - assuming that complete and chronological is everybody's idea of "proper" - has nothing to do with "them" not knowing how.

Jay 37,337 Posted June 1, 2016 Share Posted June 1, 2016 The specialty labels would love to release all the scores we want properly, its the original studios (in this case Warner Brothers) that prevent the releases (by not granting the specialty labels a license to do so) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bollemanneke 3,342 Posted June 1, 2016 Author Share Posted June 1, 2016 That's most likely the case, but it's hard to maintain patience with, or an interest in, the rules of an industry that never seems straightforward. For me, a chronological release is a proper release. I know it's not a valid comparison, but I was raised with calssical music. Have you ever heard of Vivaldi's Four Seasons being released without the second movement of summer or with Winter moved to the beginning because some studio didn't like its original placement? I understand that composers have their own ideas and wishes regarding presentations. I don't understand the use of licence fees at all, and if they were the reason we didn't get things the way we wanted, why did we get the Star Wars Episode I limited edition with all its problems? I should have studied Marketing... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay 37,337 Posted June 1, 2016 Share Posted June 1, 2016 The Episode 1 release is fucked up because Sony tried to do it themselves (and extremely quickly), instead of hiring a competent album producer with experience working on complete soundtrack releases. If they had hired Mike Matessino for example and let him program the whole set, it would have been complete and chronological without the horrid film edits. The product is only as good as who you hire to oversee it, and what material they are given access to to use. Just compare what Mike Matessino did with 1941, Empire of the Sun, and A.I. Artificial Intelligence compared to what Didier Deutsch did with Hook or Laurent Bouzereau did with CE3K, ET, and the Indy trilogy....

nightscape94 965 Posted June 26, 2016 Share Posted June 26, 2016 Yes there was an intermission, it occurred after the troll scene. There was bit of outro music to get us into intermission and intro music to get us back into the film. Sounded new to me, some type of variation on Hegwig's theme. The concert arrangement of Hegwig's theme at the very end of the credits did not have the false ending. Will 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Omen II 1,235 Posted August 21, 2016 Share Posted August 21, 2016 Did anyone manage to buy tickets for the Harry Potter concerts in London next May? They went on sale on Friday but by the time I got back from work all but the most expensive seats had already sold out, even with an extra concert added to cope with demand. I cannot justify spending £200+ on a ticket, for which price I would expect nothing less than a private audience with John Williams himself and opportunity for a no make-up selfie with the great man. I am guessing they will release gallery tickets nearer the time and that there will also be returns available so am not losing sleep over it.

bollemanneke 3,342 Posted September 1, 2016 Author Share Posted September 1, 2016 Oh. 'De sossen' means the socialists, currently in opposition. Some people blame them for absolutely everything that went wrong over the past 90 years. De Wever is the leader of the party currently in power, who in turn gets blamed by the socialist for everything that's imperfect about Belgium.
