blondheim 1,157 Posted December 3, 2020 Share Posted December 3, 2020 I doubt this will be anything much more than special edition Monopoly-s and collector's action figures. The original cuts will never be released. I am practically certain that was part of the Lucasfilm/Disney merger contract. Although who knows. Disney's wily. The expanded scores will happen eventually, I don't doubt that. I just hope it isn't for the 75th anniversary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A nice cherry on top of his 9 tiered cake. Or 9 tiers and two small chocolate truffles (solo/ galaxy's edge) and then the cherry. I look forward to all 9 OSTs being released again, but this time with bass boost and extra reverb on all tracks, and to top it off, picture-discs.

And yet, both of these hack jobs sound better than the Blake Neely-esque blob of arpeggiated anonymity that's currently sliming the opening of every Mandalorian episode. I was sure JW would find time to fart out some fantastic ten-second Lucasfilm fanfare during the TFA sessions, but I've pretty much given up. If it didn't happen for the dawn of the new era when he was already rounding up an orchestra, it won't happen now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amer 2,077 Posted December 4, 2020 Share Posted December 4, 2020 I suspect that Lucasfilm will finally approve and release James Horner's Willow for Intrada next year and then maybe Young Indy Chronicles TV series scores as a tie in to the Blu ray release of the series amongst the other projects.

crumbs 14,287 Posted December 4, 2020 Share Posted December 4, 2020 We all know whatever merchandise they release for the Lucasfilm anniversary will just be cheap shit that nobody (except diehard collectors) cares about. If by some miracle we see an Indiana Jones box set next year (for the Raiders 40th) it'll probably be a total coincidence, more likely instigated by Williams' or Spielberg's camps than anyone at Lucasfilm.
