Is it just me, or do other people think that a large percentage of Jerry Goldsmith fans are mentally unstable?

To be honest, I suspect a bit of "fan's internal conflict" behind it:
(Fan's internal dialogue):
If I don't get this Kritzerland edition, then other folks get to own music from this score which I don't have ... but if I do get it, that's more $ spent on CDs ths month (ouch!) and there really isn't that much more to this edition ... but if I don't buy it today, it'll be gone tomorrow ... SHAZBAT!!
Maybe the way people sometimes deal with that kind of internal conflict is to complain that they were presented with it.
My philosophy: all soundtrack releasing is good but you don't have to buy everything.
My suggestion is this: just make your decision about whether you're in or out and move on.
Cheers

And that's the exact dilemma that certain labels thrive on!
True. But you/we/I still have a choice about whether we play the hamster on the wheel or not.
This is a fantastic release for people who don't own the previous edition of this score, and maybe even a fantastic release for those who do.
And for those of us who don't feel inclined to but the score again for the new material, that's fine.
We can make these choices without complaining, I feel — no need to kick up a fuss.
(Complaining about a botched job is one thing. Complaining that someone released something is something else.)

Complaints because an extra cue was added? To many notes? WTF!
One extra cue that Goldsmith that was created editorially, and one that's from an inferior source. No problems though, I'm sure people will like it just fine.
You keep saying "inferior source" - you haven't an idea if it's inferior or not - you haven't heard it. Jeff Bond has - he has said it is most definitely not an inferior source and it isn't. The music track was in great shape and had excellent fidelity. Why don't you stop now, because you're looking more than a little ridiculous by this point. And it isn't the first time, is it? Is it?
And yes, I do want to go there. You know, when Ford A. Thaxton produced the previous release, he found a cue that wasn't used in the film. He tacked it onto the front of another cue IN THE ALBUM SEQUENCE, because he was the producer of the album and he liked it there. You may as well trash that La La Land CD right now, because Jerry didn't write that twenty second cue to go there.
Oh, well.
