Lethal Weapon Box Set? The Home Alones? All before 2015. The list goes on and on... I have read some seriously stupid statements over the past 18 years but this one easily constitutes as a top 3 all time dumb ass comments from a score collector. MV This forum has a "report post" feature and this is now the most reported post we've ever had in the entire history of this forum. This post is a reply to one short sentence: "Seems like 2015 is when the BF slate started having really high profile releases" I am shock and dismayed that a label representative, let alone a label owner, would choose to sign in to our forum to post a reply like this to what is a very innocuous post. The post never read to me as "Boy, LLL sure sucked in the past, 2015 was the year they FINALLY got good!", it read as "Boy, 2015 is when they kicked things up a notch!" There are many "score collectors" who don't happen to like Star Trek music, or don't happen to like Lethal Weapon music, or don't happen to like Home Alone music. Why would you want to bully and shame them when all they did was express positivity towards different titles? This forum is full of film score fans who are constantly praising and purchasing from all the specialty labels, and LLL gets more attention than any label for a number of factors, such as the sheer amount of John Williams releases you've put out, and the fact that we skew younger than a forum like FSM so there is more discussion of 80-00s scores and you've also released more of those than the other labels. Day after day our forum members are constantly say positive things about LLL and we as a collective are always looking forward to seeing what's next, and I have spent lots of my free time doing what I can to promote LLL releases in the forums as well as via main page articles, which gets shared all over social media, providing more exposure to the great work you do. I can't believe you'd decide to come here and pick apart a post that you perceived as a negative one, when there is an ocean of positivity on this site about LLL across too many different threads to ever count. I also can't believe that you'd go beyond disagreeing with the opinion shared, but also elect to call his statement "stupid" and a "dumb ass comment". I think you should apologize to Richard, who has provided two followup posts that detail what it was he was actually trying to say: 21 hours ago, Richard Penna said: I can understand MV's tone - my comment wrongly implies that some of their earlier BF releases weren't major projects.

Popular Post Richard Penna 3,689 Posted November 22, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted November 22, 2020 This blew up a bit, over such a brief observation I made, so I'll just say a few further points on top of Jay's: - MV's post was in response to an interpretation which wasn't intended, but was still read as such, and to someone working hard to release scores for years, I can understand how it caused offence, and remain apologetic for that. I was somewhat taken aback by the tone of the reply, but I understand it in context. - I hope I've clarified (and I've edited my original post as such) what I was trying to say, and Jay nailed it above. I have a personal ignorance of Star Trek/Lethal Weapon, and some other older titles, and that worked against me in this case. We all have better things to dwell on right now - I hope only for a mutual understanding of the intended spirit of my comment, which was that 5 or 6 years ago, BF really started to exceed our wildest release hopes.
