Jay 37,346 Posted August 31, 2017 Author Share Posted August 31, 2017 Well that's some nifty cover art! I've never seen that artwork before! "35th Anniversary Remastered Edition".

crumbs 14,306 Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 Great cover art! Something unused from the archives? Good to see the Matessino/Williams/Spielberg/Universal/Amblin collaboration forging ahead after last year's superb Jurassic set. Potentially Schindler's List might be in the works for the 25th Anniversary next year? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Naïve Old Fart 9,513 Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 As long as it has the THE QUIET MAN stuff, I'll be happy. That's been a holy grail of mine for some time. Well done, LLL! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Manakin Skywalker 4,891 Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 I remember this morning (and I'm not kidding) I was taking a shit and thought to myself, "I wonder if LLL will announce anything in the next week, and if there'll be anything Williams-related".

crumbs 14,306 Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 Wish I hadn't listened to the previous expansion earlier in the week. Would've been nice to save myself up. Looking at the excellent cue list breakdown here, there's a lot more revisions and alternates than I realised, not even factoring in the OST tracks. Wonder how MM has handled the inserts for Escape/Chase/Goodbye and which version will appear in the complete chronological score presentation on disc 1? I prefer the insert included but that wasn't JWs original intention. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wonder how MM has handled the inserts for Escape/Chase/Goodbye and which version will appear in the complete chronological score presentation on disc 1? I prefer the insert included but it's not JWs original intention (or so I thought). I expect they have championed the inclusion of the film version in main score programme and the original version in the extras. Unless they include the OST in the set and then it would be there already and they would not probably replicate it in the score programme. But when Matessino is involved I trust that the presentation is going to be awesome. crumbs 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crumbs 14,306 Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 Excellent and logical! This set is going to be fantastic. Is there any reason this wouldn't all fit on 2 discs? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay 37,346 Posted August 31, 2017 Author Share Posted August 31, 2017 There is no reason that everything recorded for this film wouldn't fit on two discs, no. The complete score easily fits on one, the OST was only 40 minutes, there are way less than 40 minutes worth of alternates we know about, including that theme park music Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pawel P. 738 Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 I hope it includes a fantastic Botanicus Theme Williams composed in 1991 specifically for the E.T. Adventure ride attraction. Actually, I can't imagine a complete E.T. without this. Pieter Boelen 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Incanus 5,714 Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 Would they include a theme park ride material on a score release as it is not part of the original score and was composed so many years later? Seems somewhat unlikely but I am happy to be proven wrong on this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brundlefly 2,385 Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 Well, as you may have noticed, it's the only one that has got a definitive release yet.

Holko 9,516 Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 So how do we get these in Europe without it costing at least 40 more with shipping and customs? Wait for somebody to put it up on Amazon and Ebay? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scallenger 483 Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 I echo the statement of wanting the music from the ride. I know it isn't from the film, but how else would we ever get such music? It's a golden opportunity (something I wish would have been done for Back to the Future, but at least we have that old re-recording for it). I can see the hurdle of rights issues, of course.

crumbs 14,306 Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 I totally forgot about the theme park music! Surely if MM wanted it included, a quick phone call from Spielberg could have the planets align? Don't get your hopes up though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It appears that this Blu ray 4k release will only contain the OST album. Whereas LLL will be issuing both the complete soundtrack assembly of disc 1 and the 1982 OST album on disc 2 (with possible alternates bonus cues) in their 2 CD presentation. We should wait for the official details in coming weeks. crumbs and bollemanneke 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
