Lemony Snicket's A Series of Unfortunate Events (20th Anniversary edition) The Polar Express (20th Anniversary edition) The Adventures of Batman & Robin (30th Anniversary release, just like BTAS Vol. 2 was a 20th Anniversary release)
I'm probably very far wide of the mark though, as I usually am with my guesses! But I remain optimistic for these releases.
Maybe it WOULD be nice to have sth other than Bond, but judging that so many Bonds had their anniversaries last year
I had no idea that NOTHING else has anniversaries last year besides bond.
That's not what I meant. Many scores have their anniversaries of course, but so far from what I hear from all people saying on many different forums, it is Bonds that are hold by MGM or EON to be released ONLY by anniversary. All other scores from other labels, even if are restricted only to be released by anniversary, then there is a silence about these and that topic and their contracts between LaLaLand and them, so I am sure you know what I mean. Anyway, it would be too beautiful to have another Bond now. We will see on 15th of January now, won't we?
What I would like to know if there's any NEW score coming out in 2025. There was at least 20-25 scores from the last two years that I really liked but none of them have been released on CD. I'm glad when a great expansion or re-release that I missed comes out but even more glad when one of those new scores are released on CD that I like.
Could be wrong but I really don't think there will be a bond title here.
Their BF bunch was only three titles, they moved some back to make way for the 2 Bonds.
Not every LLL batch is going to include Bond. We'll be lucky to get 2-3 a year.
Hopefully Legend of Zorro is one - a worthy follow up to 2023's Mask release. Would love to see Gladiator - it gets mentioned a lot, but it seems just wishful thinking rather than based on any evidence it's coming.
Top Gun Maverick has been supposedly coming for ages. Who know if it still is but would be a great title for LLL to get.
All three, that would be a great start to 2025 for LLL, but looking forward to whatever they announce, and obviously look forward to any further Bond announcements. They release 'em I'll buy 'em.
I'm sure whatever they are will appeal to us. Unless they've done a deal with ITV and Bandicoot to release a best-of album of performances from The Masked Singer UK. (Amend accordingly to apply where you live...Warner Bros. International Television does the Australian version so....)
For the last time, we aren't doing TG Maverick...and any film or tv show recorded with the AFM that was released after Aug 15 2005 can't be expanded or released due to high reuse fees. LEGEND OF ZORRO was released in Oct 2005. Hopefully, one day, this outdated rule will be lifted.
As for more Bond -- we would rather release 4 Bond titles that sell and pay the bills than 20 non Bond titles that don't even break even including titles by top composers. Sales are not what they used to be unless you release a highly desired title that appeals beyond this ever shrinking film score cd marketplace
Hard to keep track of these things. Sucks about titles post 2005 but the hits keep on coming. I think 2024 was one of my biggest years purchasing from LLL.

Get those Bonds out as fast as you can, strike while the iron is hot etc etc. Fully understand this!
