What Is Better Than Jaws The Collector's Edition Soundtrack?


A24

Recommended Posts

What could be better than that?

 

The same program (the slight deviations from chronological order make it more punchy... try it!), but using the 2015 Intrada edition.

Was this the first disc that had Father and Son? Or was that the CD that came with the 20th anniversary laser disc expanded? I'm not certain I have this. But then I'm not certain I don't...

The 2000 Varese McNeely re-recording!
 


I only keep it in my collection because I'm a 'Jaws' completist. Listened to it once and was like: "Nope!"

The OST came with the 20th anniversary laserdisc box set.

The McNeely, as with the Superman re recording is a neat curiosity for some variations of early drafts on some cues.  But other than that, it’s a more flaccid performance, lacking (ahem) tooth.  Keep it also for the cool Bob Peak art.

Sex. Sex is better. :)

 

And (according to some JWFaners) Star Trek. Nothing is better than Star Trek. 

Sex is overrated. So is Star Trek.

You like having sex with sharks?  You are one sick dude.  

There's an episode on one of the later seasons of Friends when Monica and Chandler (RIP Matthew Perry :() are already married, then he has to move to another town for work. While alone on his new apartment, Chandler decides to put on some "adult entertainment" and have some fun. Problem is, Monica decides to make a surprise visit to his new place.

 

So, when she enters through door, Chandler is caught by surprise and quickly changes the channel to a documentary about sharks. However, Monica does realize what he was doing and since the TV was airing the shark doc, she thought Chandler was masturbating to that and had a shark fetish. 

 

Eventually this all get sorted out and Monica is relieved to know that Chandler jerks off to regular porn and not sharks. 

 

That episode made me laugh so hard when I saw it as a teenager on one of the endless Friends reruns on cable :lol:

I've had a lifelong love affair with 'Jaws', but have drawn the line at trying to copulate with a shark. Now if you ask me if I've thought about it...

I'll take any version of Blown to Bits as I can. 

...Okay, my sense of decency, such as it is, is returning.  So, I am done.

You get that beautiful Orca theme as Brody climbs the mast. Fuck it, it's Brody's Theme at that point in the film.


YES!!! I have always thought there’s an innocent tenderness in this theme that is associated with Brody.

To say nothing of its use in the end credits. (That's the theme we're talking about, yes?)

Intrada's plan for the reissue is to delete everything except the film score and OST, which means all the bonus tracks (including The Typewriter) will be omitted.

We should also be giving the actual CD artwork a shout-out too! Love it to this day!

Are we meant to be looking into the jaws, or are we inside looking out? This question has been plaguing me since 2000...

It looks more like an ink spot than a shark opening its mouth.
