Intrada Soundtrack Forum

Intrada has now proven themselves to be THE leader in the soundtrack market. The new Co-Branding with Disney surely cements their clout in the industry.

Could a Co-Branding with Lucasfilm be next? Is it possible? Surely if Disney has given their stamp of approval, that's got to count for something. And Lucas himself is not only a fan of Disney, but a collaborator with Disney theme parks with their Star Tours ride and Star Wars Weekends events.

With the Blu Ray release of the Star Wars saga, it's a bit disappointing to not see a CD release to accompany them. But we know the 3-D releases begin theatrically next year. Seems to me to be a ripe opportunity to get expanded prequel scores and correct some of the problems of the 1997 Special Edition score releases.

Might be fun to see the Ewok movies appear under such a co-branded label. Or the Clone Wars series. Or (I know, I know..) Indiana Jones.

Intrada is great. Lucasfilm is powerful. Would be nice to see 'em join forces.

and together they will rule the galaxy like father and son !
Would like to listen to Captain EO one of these days...

Disney has so many great titles in the "vault." They can surely keep Intrada in business for another 25 years.

I certainly think it is high time that Sony stopped releasing soundtracks for Star Wars as it is clear they have no interest in doing anything expanded or complete with them. I've always wanted a set like the Episode IV and V RCA Victor albums, whereby every cue is included, including concert suites and a few alternates and outtakes as bonus material, so yes, I fully support this.

I'd also love to see better releases for Indiana Jones too. Concord had a great oppurtunity and they wasted it - I mean, seriously? Desert Chase in its original, OST form when the DCC album had it in full? All cues in Raiders and Temple of Doom pitched incorrectly? Kingdom of the Crystal Skull didn't even get that - it was just the OST bumped onto a disc without any other modifications.

There is no doubt in my mind Intrada would do a much better job with the scores of LucasFilm rather than other parties.
