Do you ever have anything POSITIVE to say about any new release? Sheesh.
Yes, I do, but right now a good release is far and few between. I posted in the OBLIVION thread that I enjoyed the score. You must have missed that one. The labels are scrapping to release unreleased titles like Can't Buy Me Love and it is not my type of score. I might pick it up down the road for the Paradise score. Am I not allowed to NOT like something? Most re-releases of recent, I have preferred the original release, oh my I sound like Thor! I am waiting to receive my copy of Percy Jackson: Sea Of Monsters-Andrew Lockington, which will probably be my favorite of the year, from what I have heard in the cues available.

@ Bond1965 - So you have no problem with bootlegs?
@ LeHah - I also do not sell bootlegs - if it is a bootleg, it will be tossed.

So you classify scores YOU don't care for as "scraping" by the labels? What a smug, elitist thing to say. And no I didn't read your comment in the Oblivion thread because for the most part I avoid reading or posting in threads to scores I don't care for. You should try it sometime.

I am going to deflect some of the stones from you Sirusjr. I have to agree with you, I have loved everything Robert Folk has composed that is available, but this is not my type of Folk. I am amazed at how many people have bootlegs of everything here and they post it. I have not played SLIPSTREAM since after I read that it might have an issue, and I am still waiting to hear any news so I can listen to it again or toss it.

Hey, wait a minute. What happened to the "exchange student with broken English" shtick?
Must be fast learner ...
"This clues fun? No. I red most of the posters guess and convinced that it must be one title, and people our mad because it was not the one that they guest. I like when title is told and we can purchase right now and arrive in weeks time."

I'd never heard "Paradise" before. Reminds me of some of the breif lighter moments from "The Brave Little Toaster". It's a plesant listen, up until the cue Fishing, which could pass for horses being ridden over an open landscape on a wide screen.
Folk's score reminds me of a score he did for a Disney TV movie a year earlier, called "Ask Max" -- it sounds very similar. You can almost hear this score's main title trying to break out into it, and another cue begins the same. Only without the electric guitar. The Disney one had a similar plot, about a nerdy kid. It's a catchy little score, hopefully Intrada will consider it, too.

-------------------
I bought Slipstream from SAE, a legitimate retailer and paid good money for it. If there are issues regarding it's legitimacy, well that's too bad. I just play it and enjoy it.

I was waiting to see when someone would say something. My University gave us a program where we can check our sentences in English (Thank you WhiteSmoke). This has helped, but sometimes it is still incorrect. It has messed up some power point presentations for my students, but it works better than the free ones online. This would even help Yor.

@ Burk - I also only post in threads where I like the composer or score. I like Folk's scores. Well, most of them. Did I post anything in the REVENGE thread? No, I do not know anything about the score or show. There are more requested scores that could be released. I bet we will find this release on the OOP list in a few months, like THE FORGOTTEN.

I like both of these 80s titles, and will pick it up. But I cannot help to think there are several other more important releases that should have come before it, like Hocus Pocus or Captain Ron and yes the other obvious one's like Mulan, Lion King, etc. Or even other titles from the same composers... The Mighty Ducks or The Neverending Story II. A Toy Soldiers reissue would be welcome too.
I really don't know how Intrada decides what to focus on. I think they act more on personal desires than what fans are shouting for. Like Revenge.... were a lot of people really asking for Revenge? I didn't really see it, but I sure saw Roger or Doug talking how much they love it. Definitely you have to like the stuff you work on, but at the same time you have a customer base who are actually the one's paying for and funding you to think more about.
There's three things you're missing.
1) Who says they AREN'T focusing on those 'more important' scores you mention? It's been said many times here, but releasing a score takes a lot of time, and one score might take years longer and another. Intrada has to [bold]MAKE MONEY[/bold] so they can afford to stay in business. They can't just hold off certain ones because more people may want something else they are working on
2) Something like Revenge is almost surely for fans of the TV show which of course isn't necessarily those who normally buy film scores, or at least not on the level most people here do.
3) There's nothing wrong with a label, especially one that publishes things themselves, in releasing what they want. I think by now Intrada has QUITE a good idea what they can release and know if they'll be able to make money with it. Yes they have a customer base to think about, but said customer base isn't entitled to anything until they part with their money and buy product.

Well, I'm addicted to Revenge, and knowing there was going to be a CD, starting listening to the cues more intently during season 2. All the moments I thought were stand-out seem, going by track titles, to be on the CD, so I'm very happy with this release. I may be in the minority among Intrada's usual customers (at least the ones active on the forums - there are probably hundreds who never sign up to these) but I do exist!
