I’ve usually followed the iTunes methodology of “Film Name (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack) [Whatever Edition]”, but occasionally releases like this one make me tempted to rethink that, and to just use the plainest reading of the cover/whatever name the label promotes it as. Primarily because of just how prominent “The Ultimate Edition” is in this case; it comes across as more a part of the actual title than just version information. But idk, I’m still undecided.

Martin B. 16 Posted December 7, 2023 Share Posted December 7, 2023 Still nothing since order went to Await Fulfilment on 30th. unlikely to arrive in the UK now before Christmas, or even this year with what the post is like these days. oh well, hopefully the podcasts are coming soon to bridge the gap before mine arrives and I can join in the listening. on the plus side, this has obviously been a big seller along with the othe BF titles, so congrats to LLL and hope it’s a nice end of the year for them. just hope they don’t break for Christmas until my order has shipped lol… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At the peak of the limited release era, a few thousand copies of a popular score would indeed sell out within hours.

Popular Post Jay 38,660 Posted December 8, 2023 Author Popular Post Share Posted December 8, 2023 It's not my place to say whether the "Temporarily Out Of Stock" message on LLL's websites indicates they sold their entire first printing run or something else, nor how large that first order was. But safe to say, this is selling very well! Which I couldn't be happier about. Seems like this could be a release that doesn't stay in print for years and years, so hopefully everyone who wants one will be able to get one when its able to be ordered again. bollemanneke, Dr. Rick, Tydirium and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did get a complementary CD as as an apology which was nice, but yes, I may be a little paranoid that it'll happen again. They must have gotten a crazy amount of orders if they are still shipping orders that came in on the first day. I ordered around 24hours after it went live, so on the 28th. 8 days on and they are still shipping orders from that first 24 hours..... That's a lot of orders.

ThePenitentMan1 976 Posted December 8, 2023 Share Posted December 8, 2023 I'll be honest, I was gonna wait to order until I'd at least seen the movie again (which I haven't done in years; I think I've only ever seen it once) and gotten more familiar with the score. (the only thing I'd previously known about Hook's score was Holko's video and the fact that everyone here wanted it) I don't normally blind-buy scores, but I might have to make an exception with this one (once it's back in stock, of course), especially if my window of opportunity is smaller than I'd initially thought it would be.

1977 1,744 Posted December 8, 2023 Share Posted December 8, 2023 This release and the fact that I have to wait quite some time before mine arrives have made me want to revisit the film again. I have fond memories as it was the very first LaserDisc I ever acquired and the first Dolby Surround track I got to listen to on my new shiny Dolby Pro-Logic set up. I recall the thrill of hearing a pirates chorus of "Good morning Mr. Smee!" echoing around my room from five speakers. The Ultimate War (and it's score) sounded incredible! Such happy times.

I tend to follow a simplistic approach with my film scores on digital: Title (Album) Title (Expanded) Title (Complete) Title (New Recording) Title (Bootleg) Title (Album - Remaster) etc. For multi-film sets, such are Quartet's new Heidi/Jane Eyre, I split them into separate albums with unique artwork.
