PeterK FishChip	I'd like everyone to know that MOVIEMUSIC.COM will be offering this CD with preferential treatment to those customers who order the CD before the movie is released on May 19. You might be able to order it elsewhere, but why? This will be the ultimate place to buy soundtracks in the near future, so why not make your first purchase the PHANTOM MENACE? For details in the next few weeks, please visit the MovieMusic main page. Your support is needed very much to make this web site a successful one! Thanks for reading. If you have anymore concerns, please contact me through the email link at the bottom of the page. PeterK

Maestro Sartori Oscar® Winner	How soon will we have a price available for The Phantom Menace? Can we buy it exclusively here at MovieMusic.com? Will we have to use a credit card? What kind of info can we expect in the near future? I'm so excited to hear about this release! I've also heard that the CD and cassette may be together in a single package. Any info on that?

Jeron Oscar® Winner	Peter, when will we have more info on this? Alot of us (including myself) want to go ahead and order the cd so we don't have to think about it. I know I do, I'm really busy and don't have time to think about Star Wars with everything else going on... Prom and graduation is coming up, etc. I've already ordered mine from Intrada, but I'd be more than happy to cancel that order if you can get me some info really quick. Once ordered, will you get it to us quickly? Three, Two or Next Day? Give us some time projections so we can make a decision. ;-) Thanks, Jeron

pietari Oscar® Winner	What about international delivery, sometimes it takes ages to get stuff to Finland or even England where I`m studying at the moment. Interesting fact: Merlin was officially released here last week, in america I think it was hlaf a year ago, but contrastingly Barry`s Beyondness of THings was released here half a year earlier.It`s frustrating! -Pietari

PeterK FishChip	Hey Everyone, We will be offering this score at very competitive prices. At the moment, I do not know how much we will be offering it for, but I do know that, once the album is released, the album should show up within 2-3 days (USA). I will post all the info on the main MovieMusic page, as well as a message right here in the message boards, so keep checking up. As for the time frame, we will have all the info by late April. As you know, no company can actually send out orders until the release date, which is May 4. All in all, you will have time to make the best decisions in the first week in May. Hope this helps! PeterK

Steph1 unregistered	A lot of people are saying that John Williams Score for the Phantom Menace is 100% all new stuff but apparently that is not quite true...its only 90% new...I know thats not a big difference but at least some of the old theme will appear in the new soundtrack s.The Phantom Menace Nintendo 64 game will also feature the same music used in the film. I read that John Williams composed in total 2 hours of new music for the film as well as the game.

Bozman Oscar® Winner	There is between 90-100 music used in THE PHANTOM MENACE. 74 of it will be released on the CD release on May 4. Who knows if the rest will be released. Williams also recorded music that did not make the film, and alternate versions of several tracks. So, plenty of bonus track material if a second score CD is released. Let's hope! Cheers!

Will Oscar® Winner	I sense a petition coming up... or perhaps Sony will just release a second disc ala Back to Titanic... By the way, why do most score release leave out the best part/ cue from the movie (e.g. Armageddon, Mulan)?
posted 04-16-1999 07:19 AM PT (US)

Bozman Oscar® Winner	"Duel of the Fates," the radio single hits stations on Tuesday, April 20. This is a radio single and will therefore probably not be available in stores. Look for the "Duel of the Fates" music video on MTV and VH1 on May 3. Cheers!

Crono/Kyp Oscar® Winner	I am guessing that "Dual of the Fates" is on the CD coming out on May 4th. The day before my B-day!!!! --Crono/Kyp Writer/Director/Producer
posted 04-16-1999 10:33 AM PT (US)

Bozman Oscar® Winner	Yes, Duel of the Fates is Track 2 on the Soundtrack.

Crono/Kyp Oscar® Winner	I figuered as much thanks for the info. does anyone know the track listings? --Crono/Kyp Writer/Director/Producer
posted 04-18-1999 09:45 PM PT (US)

Steve Hughes Oscar® Winner	It's probably the ramblings of drooling loonies, but there is still a lot of suspicion that THE PHANTOM MENACE is still a dummy title being used to fool bootleggers. It sort of happened with Return of the Jedi -- previously Revenge of the Jedi. Anybody else heard anything?
posted 04-18-1999 09:53 PM PT (US)

Maestro Sartori Oscar® Winner	I've seen a computer scan of the CD insert, which has a complete listing of every track and time. However, it also contains MAJOR spoilers!!! I don't encourage seeing it if you do not intend to know the plot or storyline simply by a track title. I don't know what John Williams was thinking this time, but does anybody remember Return of the Jedi's original release? "Rebel Briefing" was the title for the piece of music that covered the Funeral Pyre Scene.

Jasom Oscar® Winner	I was just at cduniverse.com and I looked up the Phantom Menace and they had 2 listings. One listing was normal while the other listing said blister pack. Can anybody tell me what blister pack means? Thanks. -Jasom -np-Secret of Nimh-J. Goldsmith

Bozman Oscar® Winner	It now seems that Duel of the Fates will not air on 4/20 as previously announced by Sony. They are now saying perhaps it will be 4/27. Stay tuned!
posted 04-19-1999 01:23 PM PT (US)

Maestro Sartori Oscar® Winner	Jasom, and anyone else who is curious, a BLISTER PACK is a combo package, CD and cassette, possible the single, but maybe the whole score. This is a rumor I've heard about. Why they would sell both forms together of the same score... I don't know. We'll have to watch and see.
posted 04-23-1999 01:50 AM PT (US)

Will Oscar® Winner	I am not surprised if they release two different releases of the score. This is because the Trilogy SE has got two different packaging: one with the normal jewel case and the other with a book casing or whatever you call it.
posted 04-23-1999 03:07 AM PT (US)

Bozman Oscar® Winner	I am now hearing rumblings that the single DUEL OF THE FATES may not be released at all--so, we may have to wait for the soundtrack...two more weeks--we can do it! Cheers!
posted 04-23-1999 10:20 AM PT (US)

Bozman Oscar® Winner	Okay, I talked to a manager at one of my local stations, and he said they will be airing DUEL OF THE FATES at 10pm on Monday 4/26. So, I guess it is coming out afterall.
posted 04-25-1999 02:09 AM PT (US)

Audacity Oscar® Winner	Bozman, What kind of radio station did you talk to? Are all radio stations going to play DUEL OF THE FATES, or just classical radio stations? Thanks, Audacity
posted 04-26-1999 04:54 AM PT (US)

Bozman Oscar® Winner	I talked to a "Top 40" popmusic station. Duel of the Fates was available for sattelite download this morning, so if your station is going to play it, they should get it today. I can't wait!

Crono/Kyp Oscar® Winner	Hey everyone, I'm back form my crew rqce in Canada! I had a question, does anyone know is the main theme will be different or the same? --Crono/Kyp Writer/Director/Producer NP: Dual of Fates--Star Wars Episode I
posted 04-27-1999 01:38 PM PT (US)

Dan Brecher Oscar® Winner	Well track 1 on the score is: Star Wars Main Theme/Arrival at Naboo Soooooooo, looks like the theme is being kept. Yaay! Dan (UK) NP: Yes, it's Duel of the Fates......again
posted 04-27-1999 02:43 PM PT (US)

Bozman Oscar® Winner	The opening title music is the same as the other movies. That is, it is the same theme and everything...however, it is a little bit of a different arrangment....I won't say how...just wait, and if you listen carefully, you'll see what I mean. Cheers!
posted 04-27-1999 10:39 PM PT (US)

Aaron R. Brown Oscar® Winner	I hope John didn't use Luke's theme again as the main title. The guy isn't even in the film. (He might be born in the final installment.) I had a nightmare that Williams used that theme again. I will be very disapointed if it is the main title. I think Obi-Wan's theme should (or maybe will) be the main title.
posted 04-28-1999 07:01 AM PT (US)

Bozman Oscar® Winner	The opening fanfare uses a theme the Williams originally intended to be the "Star Wars Main Theme." It just so happens that it doubles as a sort-of Luke's Theme. Personally, I am glad that the prequels will open the same way as the classic trilogy.
posted 04-28-1999 10:31 AM PT (US)

Will Oscar® Winner	When do you guys think the 2nd disc of the score will be released? I am pretty sure that Sony will release it. Now the question is: when? Or perhaps they might consider releasing a double disc score...
posted 04-28-1999 05:34 PM PT (US)

Kevin Oscar® Winner	Sony will probably wait to see what the sales are for the first disc, and then make up their mind. I wouldn't expect it for a year or so. Unfortunately. Hopefully I'll be proved wrong. Kevin

Jeron Oscar® Winner	Well - from what I'm listening to right now, it's awesome. Sony had better release a second cd! ;-) NP - The Phantom Menace - Full Score CD
posted 04-29-1999 07:23 PM PT (US)

Kevin Oscar® Winner	Jeron, Now where did you get the score this early? Or are you yanking our chains? Not that I care. I've gone on record saying I won't listen to it until after I see the film. Kevin NP - Mary Shelley's Frankenstein
posted 04-29-1999 07:53 PM PT (US)

Jeron Oscar® Winner	I'm not yanking anyone's chains. I've got a friend who received an advanced release. And yes... I feel as if I've committed a cardinal sin by listening to it before seeing the movie... but believe me, I've gotten over it. This music is too good to enjoy any later than this. Jeron
posted 04-29-1999 09:18 PM PT (US)

Dan Brecher Oscar® Winner	I have to agree with Jeron that the score is outstanding. I love it to death!!!!!!! Dan (UK) NP: The Sith Spacecraft & The Droid Battle -- episode 1 score
posted 04-30-1999 07:50 AM PT (US)

Jeron Oscar® Winner	I have to ask - who here (who's listened to the score) thinks that track 12 (Panaka and the Queen's Protectors) is one of the best tracks on the cd? I mean, the entire cd, every minute of it is pure Star Wars/Williams heaven, but - this one track REALLY blows me away. Jeron
