Roger says
For those that pay attention, we generally avoid shipping titles the week of Thanksigiving, since it's a short week and the Intrada staff like take it a little slower. So we usually release a week earlier than usual and then we'll resume on Dec. 2.
This week's release harkens back to the 1960s and is the middle film of a trilogy of sorts. It's an expanded LP reissue. It features a compact disc that contains music, since we know that's what collectors of fine film music like. There's a small booklet that contains notes of some sort and some pictures. There's also a card that lists all of the tracks that are on the CD. And because we know how discriminating collectors are, we are including a plastic case in which you can house not only the CD, but the booklet and card as well. In fact, we've done the work for you and inserted everything into the case, becuase that's the kind of service we offer.

Awwww.....too bad. I probably won't be buying this as Roger makes no mention of an outer cellophane wrapping. 
I have one of those handy-dandy cellophane wrapping cutters which makes it easy to cut the wrapping away and get into the jewel box.
If there is no cellophane wrapping to cut with my handy-dandy cutter---then the whole buying, unwrapping, removing cd from jewel case, inserting cd into player, and listening experience is incomplete for me. It just isn't right.
Of course, Roger might be mistaken and there actuallly IS a cellophane wrap around everything!!!
In that case, I'll be a happy buyer! Let's hope for the best and that Roger is wrong.

No...Harry Palmer is a trilogy. Eastwood's character is those three films has a different name in each one, and in the last film, Lee van Cleef plays a villain who is completely unrelated (though he looks the same) to the protagonist he played in the previous film.
Any lumping of those three films into a "trilogy" is pure marketing based on their similarities of style. But in terms of story elements it just doesn't make sense.

Be that as it may, the world pretty much views them as a trilogy and has for as long as I've been aware -- they are referred to as the Dollars Trilogy. So I'll stand by my assessment and we'll agree to disagree.

I don't disagree that thanks to marketing the world regards it as a trilogy...but that is what helps qualify it to be a trilogy 'of sorts'.

while i hope that this release could be FOR A FEW DOLLARS MORE, after having a bit of a think i have come up with another possibility.
do you remember those great "race" comedies of the 60's,they were a trilogy of sorts,namely THOSE MAGNIFICENT MEN IN THEIR FLYING MACHINES,MONTE CARLO OR BUST and THE GREAT RACE.intrada has already given us the first title,so could this new expanded cd be either MONTE CARLO OR BUST or THE GREAT RACE,both were available on ,this would be something a lot of us would love to have,exiting possibility!

Wow. When i saw "middle part of a 60s trilogy," my first guess was Funeral in Berlin, but I figured there'd be no way they'd find extra cues from that one. Awesome.

I was thinking the Harry Palmer trilogy but didn't Intrada recently do FUNERAL IN BERLIN?
SO there!
