Maclaine 7 Posted January 15, 2017 Share Posted January 15, 2017 Hey all. I stumbled across this on eBay the other day. The description is vague, but I'm curious what's inside the box. My gut says it's just Blu Rays or CD soundtracks of the movies listed on the outside, but I was curious if anyone here knew any more about it. http://www.ebay.com/itm/AMERICAN-FILM-INSTITUTE-JOHN-WILLIAMS-44TH-LIFE-ACHIEVEMENT-AWARD-SEALED-BOX-SET-/142240859822?nma=true&si=P%2FRPTEWRj%2Fhy8RxaSVCwdq3SWfM%3D&orig_cvip=true&rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.l2557 Will and thx99 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thx99 1,740 Posted January 15, 2017 Share Posted January 15, 2017 Whoah!!! Looks interesting, for sure. Here's another eBay listing which claims it to be the "Program and DVD Collection":http://www.ebay.com/itm/BRAND-NEW-John-Williams-American-Film-Institute-Program-and-DVD-Collection-/172464469563?hash=item2827aef63b:g:mzQAAOSwcLxYFjPx Will 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gruesome Son of a Bitch 6,488 Posted January 16, 2017 Share Posted January 16, 2017 I wonder if it just contains OST CDs. But then, which versions? The Japanese Superman album with the additional tracks? Close Encounters OOP OST, remastered OST or OOP Collector's Edition? Maybe it's the complete scores. We'll never know unless someone buys it.

thx99 1,740 Posted January 16, 2017 Share Posted January 16, 2017 It appears to contain DVDs of the films listed on the side of the box, not CDs of the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will 2,215 Posted January 16, 2017 Share Posted January 16, 2017 Yeah, not something I'd actually want to buy for that price (!), but cool nonetheless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amer 2,096 Posted January 16, 2017 Share Posted January 16, 2017 Its Just a collection of movies scored by JW, saw this in more detail in some eBay listing a few months back. It also contains the Tribute Program that was made available to the attendees of the AFI Tribute. I'am only interested in that printed program.

I guess it would have been cool to receive if you were attending the event and were a huge fan. Not worth the money being asked, though.

I was sent the printed program from a friend who attended the event. Quite lavish for an event booklet, almost like a small book. So I have a kind of 'souvenir' without actually having attended. If this box only contains the movies featured on the program, it isn't very interesting. Amer and Will 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cant use Ebay because of paypal( my country isn't on that list). Damn! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
