Naïve Old Fart 9,554 Posted July 12, 2017 Share Posted July 12, 2017 I'd like to see one scene restored: where Nearly adjusts the lights, in the Dax Air Force base, to spell-out the letters UFO. A complete release of all three current versions, would be good. I miss Carl Weathers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On Monday, June 26, 2017 at 1:04 PM, crumbs said: As for non-Potter expansions, Williams dropped that hint about revisiting Amistad recently. With 40 minutes unreleased (and who knows how many alternates?) that seems ripe for a 20th Anniversary expansion. I seems like Williams himself is bothered by the fact that so much music is still unreleased (at least the way you expressed it, implies that). Does the JW JP collection indicate the turning point of William's opinion on that issue? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay 37,374 Posted July 13, 2017 Share Posted July 13, 2017 I don't know about that release specifically the work MM has done on all his recent Williams expansions seems to indeed have made Williams more keen to release his scores in complete form, as long as Matessino oversees them and he knows they will be done right.

Brundlefly 2,385 Posted July 13, 2017 Share Posted July 13, 2017 Well, I would like a combination of the theatrical version and the director's cut, but the end of the special edition can be dropped. It undermines my fantasy. Ricard 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Display Name 60 Posted July 13, 2017 Share Posted July 13, 2017 I don't need a "complete film release". When I wanna watch Close Encounters I take either the theatrical or the director's version. I just need a "complete score release". Luckily there are no Varese Sarabande issues as with Goldsmith. The only Williams score that VS could expand is Presumed Innocent.

Brundlefly 2,385 Posted July 13, 2017 Share Posted July 13, 2017 Additionally the special edition drops the forming of the mountain in the living room.

It focuses more on the mental problems Dreyfuss' character has, but a few scenes from the theatrical version do not appear. The special edition, however, is the worst of them, it just serves for delivering great new music. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quintus 5,399 Posted July 14, 2017 Share Posted July 14, 2017 Those are some of my favourite parts. I've always loved Williams in military mode, it's one of his most distinctive sounds. Journey to the Island has a legendary segment just after the helicopter touches down, for example. I like it when Williams tells the audience shit is getting real.

Seth's right; there's no OST, no INSIDE THE MOTHERSHIP, and no THEME FROM CE3K, but, hey-ho. Tbh, there's not much more music to be released - THE 11TH COMMANDMENT being the most obvious - but it would be nice to have a new remaster. Damn! Now I want to listen to the thing!
