I literally just a few days ago spent $150 on a sealed copy of the 2012 expansion, set to arrive Thursday. (I finally hopped back on the CD bandwagon after years of going digital, hence my lateness in getting this.) If so, I’ll just keep this sealed and sell it (albeit I’m sure for less than what I paid). Still, part of me really hopes it is Hook, as part of my reluctance in picking up the 2012 version was the issues I’m well aware of. It’s one of my favorite scores, and it would be so nice to have a definitive release that fixes all the problems and includes all the missing music. Why would you buy that one?

rough cut 1,739 Posted September 27, 2023 Share Posted September 27, 2023 I’m sad that it isn’t JW, but happy to see MM is getting his projects out - especially those he are proud of and seems to have taken time to be released. I’m curious to see what it is. : ) bollemanneke and crumbs 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Alan 695 Posted September 27, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted September 27, 2023 Maybe it's wishful thinking but I'm getting Tolkien vibes from this. Not coming from a independent label, a huge release, the extended editions being in theatres recently, 20th anniversary of ROTK and 10th for The Hobbit and then Doug gets in on the tease... PLUS! Didn't Mike say he was excited about what a huge upcoming release could mean for other projects a little while back? Like a huge franchise spanning boxset?

Marian Schedenig 8,751 Posted September 27, 2023 Share Posted September 27, 2023 Those descriptions would probably match the once-rumoured CD set of McCreary's full Rings of Power episode scores, but I don't think that's it.

Richard Penna 3,985 Posted September 27, 2023 Share Posted September 27, 2023 Nah, a RoP box wouldn't come anywhere near the level of importance MM implies. I reckon Bear's comment at the time was a strangely worded reference to Mondo's release - I personally don't get a sense now that a box of the episodes was ever on the table. That Doug got into the cryptic tweeting action lends potential credence to something Tolkien going on though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A box set release of 8 full-length "TV" scores would certainly be "big" and something that hasn't happened before, so I think it would qualify.
