Author	Topic: Milan Records to Release "The Pledge" and "Shrek" score news

Crono/Kyp Oscar® Winner	From SoundtrackMag.com <<Hans Zimmer's score to THE PLEDGE will be released on Milan Records. The Zimmer compilation that Milan had planned to release earlier this year has now been put off until sometime in 2002.>> Was the score that good? I still have yet to see the film. And bad news for "Shrek" fans <<As we go to press Dreamworks has gone on record saying they have no plans to release a score album for the hit film SHREK.>> Damn DreamWorks. I hate to say it but damn them, that CD could sell hella! --Brian Gryffindor Seeker [Message edited by Crono/Kyp on 09-18-2001]

I thought it was only an okay effort... quote: <<As we go to press Dreamworks has gone on record saying they have no plans to release a score album for the hit film SHREK.>> Dreamworks Records had consistently said (for the past 5 months) that they had no plans to release a score album to SHREK. I just assumed (incorrectly) that another label would put it out. But if the STUDIO is saying that there won't be a score release, then.... well.... Hrmph. (Of course, studios have been wrong in the past...) Dan

HadrianD Oscar® Winner	Ohkay everybody, let join together, go to Dreamwork and lay the smackdown on the executive who made this decision. What about a future Academy promo? That might happen!

Hasta Oscar® Winner	Well this sucks. As far as Zimmer's The Pledge score goes, it was effective in film, but I found no need to seek out a bootleg or anything (if there even was one); and keep in mind I'm a huge fan of Zimmer. It just didn't seem like the score that would make for an enjoyable listen out of context. NP: Serial Mom (Poledouris)

SBD Oscar® Winner	quote: Originally posted by HadrianD: What about a future Academy promo? That might happen! Now you're talking! What with the Annie Award nomination that the score has received (the first of many, I'm sure), an Academy promo is something of a certainty. By the way, the Annie Awards are given to animated films.

BMUSTANG Oscar® Winner	I just saw the movie tonight. While the movie was okay, I thought the score was pretty awesome. I really hope it gets a score release, someone said in an earlier post a "rumor" said they might release a score along with the release of the video? That would be okay if it were true. Here are some of the clips I liked best: Opening where Shrek is reading the book Shrek sits down to eat Shrek wakes Princess Princess and bird sing Donkey finds out Princess' secret Princess transforms, bright light and fire

Brendan Anderson Oscar® Nominee	A Shrek release would indeed be a great thing...but I'm starting to highly doubt the possibility. However... Has anyone here heard of this "Music of John Powell" promo disc? Check out the info here: http://www.soundtrack.net/soundtracks/database/?id=2989 The CD (which as I understand is only distributed by Powell's agent(?)) contains the following cues from Shrek: "Escape From The Dragon" - 1:56 "Big Awkward Moment" - :40 "Singing Princess" - 1:35 "Ride The Dragon" - 1:36 So, good luck to anyone who goes after this one!

wistiti Oscar® Winner	May I recommend trying Amazon.fr instead? I seem to remember shipping is cheaper at Amazon.fr than at the FNAC.

TimT Oscar® Winner	The price is cheaper too not just the shipping. So if DreamWorks doesn't want to release Shrek then howcome Milan or Varese won't do it?

Crono/Kyp Oscar® Winner	I'm surprised Varese didn't jump on this mack in May. The score is a cash crop IMO to who ever releases it. --Bri Guy

Dylan Oscar® Winner	Didn't Varese Sarabande release Small Soldiers by Jerry Goldsmith? And Small Soldiers is owned by Dreamworks.

Jeron Oscar® Winner	quote: Originally posted by Dylan: Didn't Varese Sarabande release Small Soldiers by Jerry Goldsmith? And Small Soldiers is owned by Dreamworks. Good point, my bad, Dylan. I'm just saying, Dreamworks seems to have no interest in releasing Shrek through any venue...

Shaun Rutherford Oscar® Winner	Man, talk about LATE! It's almost like Varese and their Deluxe Editions, which are always touted as being tied-in with the "recent" DVD release, but in reality, they're always a year or more off! Shaun

Greg Bryant Oscar® Winner	That's interesting...Varese is also releasing Shrek. http://www.varesesarabande.com/upcoming.asp?list%5FPagingMove=%3E&ListAbsolutePage=1&qfkeyword=&artist=&title=&description=&category%5Fid=&size=&mscssid=26E7NLWLW4QH8LGWU1BUR2HVHD5 00439

Lancelot Oscar® Winner	Your diligence is commendable, Greg Bryant, though Crono/Kyp's post-title seems to suffer the lack of a clear modifier: Milan Records to release The Pledge AND Shrek score news. (Milan Records does not apply to both.)
