Looking forward to hearing this in full form. While I may not be the biggest fan of the faux Spanish/Mexican (more on the Spanish side actually) stylings Horner is using in his music it is a fun swashbuckling action/adventure score.

Edmilson 7,466 Posted November 24, 2023 Share Posted November 24, 2023 One of my most coveted holy grails. I saw the movie on TV back when I was 11 or 12 and I really enjoyed it! Then I saw it again about two years ago and it's still pretty solid. But I've never been a fan of the OST though, which is why I hope the expansion will make me appreciate the score even more.

ChrisAfonso 186 Posted November 24, 2023 Share Posted November 24, 2023 This score hits one of my Horner nostalgia soft spots, as it was one of the first Horner scores I discovered (back in the browsing-in-shelves way of things), and clichéd as it may be (hello Carmen!), it's just so much fun to listen to . Even though I pretty much consider the album already very comprehensive, this is an immediate order for me. crocodile 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GerateWohl 4,370 Posted November 24, 2023 Share Posted November 24, 2023 A nice Horner score, even though I really dislike the song.

Holko 9,529 Posted November 24, 2023 Share Posted November 24, 2023 I went on a little Horner discovery round sometime this year, checking out some of his OSTs on Tidal. On first listen Mask of Zorro was one that I thought had good ideas but was too bland/unstructured to really hold my attention. Legend seemed much more fun. Nevertheless I'm liking the samples (though he was very much in a Jumanji mood ) and I'll definitely give it a full listen to give it a better chance when it's... um... out.

Richard Penna 3,694 Posted November 24, 2023 Share Posted November 24, 2023 Thought I might've had a track or two from this, but apparently not. It's the right era for me to have been a grail, but things didn't happen like that. I've never seen the film. The only track I have from the franchise is the train chase from the sequel score. I seem to remember the ending track from one of them (more likely from the second one) going on forever like many of Horner's extended melodramatic pieces.

Andy 4,138 Posted November 24, 2023 Share Posted November 24, 2023 I need more Horner in my life. I sampled the OST some months ago and some of it reminded me of the Laughing Bandit from the Rocketeer. So, ordered. Tydirium 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CatastrophicJones 18 Posted December 5, 2023 Share Posted December 5, 2023 Anyone have a better quality cover? Even the one on LLL's site, the text with the actor's names looks blurred compared to the rest of the crisp cover for some reason. Also, could LLL start posting 1400x1400, 1500x1500 or bigger artwork on their site instead of 1280x1280? I know it use to be 1425x1425, but that still wasn't even. I'd rather not have to resize with photoshop. I'm a little OCD with my album artwork. Ripping my copy as we speak as well! I'm excited to listen to this one in the car soon.

Popular Post harryfrishberg 37 Posted December 7, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted December 7, 2023 This is my favorite Horner score -- and much of that is tied to my childhood experience seeing the movie, which also ranks highly in my mind. Neil did an incredible job with this expanded presentation. Having a complete and chronological version of the score makes for a wonderful listening experience. I am thrilled to finally have unreleased cues like Prison Escape, Interrupted Getaway, and the standout MVP.... "Sexy Dance". So very thankful for the time and effort that Neil and company put into this score. I love it! Jay, Incanus, Yavar Moradi and 1 other 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OneBuckFilms 323 Posted December 8, 2023 Share Posted December 8, 2023 I'm still listening to this while I work, and it is a fantastic expansion. The only niggling thing is that they don't include the film version of the end credit song, only the version from the previous album. That said, I'm not sure aside from the cheesy sound effects that there is any difference between the two. Still, there is just so much excellent music, and in great quality, and I LOVE it.

Laserschwert 475 Posted December 9, 2023 Share Posted December 9, 2023 I'm so looking forward to getting my set.

GerateWohl 4,370 Posted December 9, 2023 Share Posted December 9, 2023 The score was damaged by this ugly song, similar situation like A.I. Was even the same time, I think.

Popular Post Yavar Moradi 2,599 Posted December 12, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted December 12, 2023 I mean yeah, this is the kind of “sexy dance” you give actors to do — one they can be taught relatively simply while they are more busy with say, sword training (the much more important dancing in this movie). Professional dancers can do a lot better. Heck even actors on Dancing with the Stars get more fancy, because learning to dance is literally all they have to worry about on that show, unlike everything involved in making a movie. But Horner sells the hell out of that dance, especially with that magical key change. It’s fine!
