Okay, now to the survey. What would you need to acquire for your collection in order to make it complete, could give up all the time you spend collecting soudtracks, and (as William Shatner so eloquently put it) move out of your parents basement, get a girl (or boy) friend and Get A Life? I'm going to limit this to soundtracks, which for the most part, have never been released. For me, it would be the following:

The Satan Bug - Jerry Goldsmith
Crack in the World - John Douglas
Beneath the Planet of the Apes - Leonard Rosenman (I know, released long ago as an LP, but quite rare)
Conquest of the Planet of the Apes - Tom Scott
Battle for the Planet of the Apes - Leonard Rosenman

My Wish list:
Reindeer Games (Alan Silvestri)
The Detective (Jerry Goldsmith)
The Ilustrated Man (Jerry Goldsmith)
Judgment Day (Alan Silvestri)
Harry and Son (Henry Mancini)
Animal House (Elmer Bernstein)
An American Werewolf In London (Elmer Bernstein)
48 Hours-complete (James Horner)
Analyze This (Howard Shore)
South Park (Marc Shaiman)
Chill Factor (Hans Zimmer and John Powell)
The Great Outdoors (Thomas Newman)
Tequila Sunrise-complete (Dave Grusin)
Commando (James Horner)
Johnny Mnemonic (Brad Fiedel)
I.Q. (Jerry Goldsmith)

The day I can complete my collection will be the day where silent movies (without scores) are the only movies we will watch and every darn score is released complete.

• Captain Blood (Erich Wolfgang Korngold). I've got the Marco Polo re-recording, but I bet it's not complete. From what I do remember, there must be so much more music in the film (I have to dig out the VHS tape...)
  
• The First Great Train Robbery (Goldsmith of course)
  
• Robin Hood (The Disney film; the composer's name escapes me)
  
• More or less all unreleased scores by Williams
  

But I doubt that my collection will ever be complete.

As far as things that were never ever released that I would complete my collection with, that is the same list that I put up in Dantoris' if you could have it all post.

Major League by James Newton Howard
Wyatt Earp (Complete) by James Newton Howard
Postman (Complete) by James Newton Howard
Navy Seals by Sylvester Levay
Sniper by Gary Chang and Hans Zimmer
Top Gun (Complete) Harold Faltermeyer
Tango & Cash by Harold Faltermeyer
and I must second HT's Commando by James Horner and Johnny Mnemonic by Brad Fiedel

The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh (Buddy Baker),
Robin Hood (Disney one, I don't know the composer),
Duck Tales the movie COMPLETE(David Newman),
Pee-Wee's Big Adventure COMPLETE(Danny Elfman),

and of course the one I always mention, my all time most wanted score CD that will never(probably) be released

Duck Tales the TV series (Ron Jones)

Yes, coincedently enough all the scores that I want are scores from shows that I loved when I was a kid. Oh well, hopefully one day...

Cenzo

Lethal Weapon 4 (Michael Kamen, Eric Clapton and David Sanborn)
U-571 (Richard Marvin, if it isn't released)
Frequency (Michael Kamen, if it isn't released)
Dead Presidents-complete (Danny Elfman)
The Lonely Guy-complete (Jerry Goldsmith)
The Salamander (Jerry Goldsmith)
Breakfast of Champions (Mark Isham)
Bad Company (Carter Burwell)
Home Alone 3-complete (Nick Glennie-Smith)
Sugar Hill (Terence Blanchard)
The Rookie (Lennie Niehaus)
Die Hard With A Vengeance used and rejected scores (Michael Kamen)

Until then, I would reveal my age by hoping
for the following B Sci-fi scores to show
up someday:

THE LOST CONTINENT (Paul Dunlap)
PROJECT MOONBASE (Herschel Burke Gilbert)
WAR OF THE SATERLLITES (Walter Greene)

and the following "major" scores:

DESTINATION MOON (the original Columbia
masters that almost it out
on PEG last year)
THE SATAN BUG (Goldsmith)
VON RYAN'S EXPRESS (Goldsmith)
THE LOST COMMAND (Waxman)

To make my collection complete would require a true stereo remix of the original tracks to Barry's ZULU.

Jaws (about to happen, thankfully)
The Towering Inferno
Beneath The Planet Of The Apes
King Of Kings (MUST have the Main Title in its film version)
The Private Life Of Sherlock Holmes
Cleopatra
Capricorn One
The Swarm
Hawaii
And expanded versions of the rest of the Bond films up to View To A Kill (Octopussy alas is a long ways off from that happening in light of how that rerelease got botched)

Is there any information about HOW complete it will be?

Also, I forgot one score:

• Bruce Broughton's Young Sherlock Holmes. I once saw the movie on TV. Can't remember too much, but the score impressed me. I know I was wondering if Williams scored it, because of the similarities to Indy 2.

Two James Bond Scores (To complete the Bond collection): "Thunderball" and "A View To A Kill"

• A piece of music that was featured more than a year ago in a German commercial for "Nordstern Collonia". Unfortunately, I have no idea what it is, but it sounded edited, so I guess it wasn't an original piece. A bit in the vein of Edelman's wonderful Dragonheart score.
  
• Here's the tough one. Years ago, when film music didn't mean anything to me, I saw a short movie on TV. I think I hadn't read Tolkien's Silmarillion at that time, but the "story" of this movie was similar to Ainulindalae (sp? I'm too lazy to dig out the book) from Tolkien's book.
  There was an orchestra performing some work, including a piano. After a short while, the pianist started playing something different, causing chaos among the orchestra. The conductor tried to keep them playing the original work, and you could see & hear both of them trying to "win". This was accompanined by an upcoming thunderstorm, if I recall it correctly, which still enhanced the tension.
  I have absolutely no idea what this was called, or who participated in making it, but I think I can remember that it had really cool music. It would be fantastic to see this again.

but Varese I believe has re-issued some of their older titles, so some online place like Intrada may have it.

CDNOW and Amazon have Carlito's Way IIRC.

The following link has several new and used copies of Carlito's Way:

this is a must-have for Doyle fans.

Is it still safe to buy at CDNow? I've heard they've got serious financial problems, and that orders, although billed, never shipped?

Actually I have gotten an response from CDNow about that. It is not that bad. There was an
false article put out by Barron's. Though CDNOW is still in the game for now.
