You need to put petition in the title of your thread. It's very mis-leading.Also I don't think many people sign petitions these days because they barely go any where and or are forgotten. Plus most industries don't really take them seriously.

Your mis-leading title just doesn't cut it with people. As we've stated no one is going to sign it. Petitions are useless and stupid.

"Your mis-leading title just doesn't cut it with people. As we've stated no one is going to sign it.

I mean, if all those people bought the soundtrack, it probably wouldn't even pay for a minute's worth of score. I think with this score, it's a little too late. But you can always try ebay, there's quite a bit of bootlegs on there and I think there was a complete for Godzilla too. Plus someone listed Hocus Pocus for $615 again...

i already have the promo score and its missing alot of the best music and that complete is not the complete its the 2000 release with godzilla/godzilla 2000 scores on one disc. even if there was a complete score on ebay it would bea dvd rip with sfx on it. i have 41 signatures now and its still rising in numbers. im aiming for 100 and i will be sending via email to several record labels. perseverance records has already said they put a bid in for releasing the complete score weeks ago, this is just to make sure it does get rleeased!! btw yes you did sound mean!

What exatcly is the problem with putting the petition up?If you don't want to sign it fine, but why all the "It's pointless. Don't even try. Why bother" BS.
As fans we are getting things we only dreamed of. I don't see the harm in this petition whether it works or not isn't the point.
Besides, I figure if I can vote Democratic in Texas, nothing else can really be a waste of time.
So lighten up already.

I sincerely don't understand why some people are so negative towards this petition. If these guys wants to get the score releases, this is at least one way to try and make it happen.I applaud the effort, good luck guys!

I like the score quite a bit, especially the closing stuff on the promo. I'm not trying to be negative and saying "don't do petitions!", but in all reality, when has it ever worked? I recently saw a petition for Arrested Development to keep it on the air and there were tons of signatures on it, not to mention the producers had an e-mail address for fans to e-mail and show support for the show and Fox still canceled it. But on the score front, I think Armageddon had one and that score got released (sort of), but that was due to the extremely high demand. Even 100 people signing it, although that is impressive, isn't enough, you gotta aim for the thousands. My advice is post it everywhere you can.Clayton

Well it doesn't hurt altho they probably don't give a rats ..... how we feel.
But you never know.
You can always try to get in touch with Mr Arnold, I'm not sure how he is with his fans.
You never know.

I'm no big fan of David Arnold, although that doesn't mean to say I don't like some of his work. I'm not greatly enthralled by his GODZILLA score either, although I seem to recall some good moments (only heard it with the film, once, when it came out). But I have no probs with the idea of a petition. It probably won't do any good, but if that's where your heart lies, well fine. It's a bit like voting for the Greens.

I was gonna mention, there's a special edition DVD coming out soon... not sure why... but maybe we'll get lucky and by some random fluke, the isolated score will be on there! After all, way back in the day, Sony did have tons of isolated scores...Clayton

The reason why there's a lot of negativity towards petitions has been stated.Because they either A: DO NOT work or B: are forgotten over time.
Examples:
#1 Back To The Future Part I. A petition was created for that a long time ago to have a complete remastered score released. Hell I even signed it. It was eventually sent off the execs of I think Universal and yet we still do NOT have a complete remastered score for the first movie.
#2 The Star Wars Original Trilogy Thearatical Editions. A petition was created for that to have the thearatical editions released on DVD completely restored. I think a lot of people have signed but it has been since forgotten. Now with the latest 04' DVD set people have most likely even forgotten more about that petition and Lucas has said he will never release the Thearatical Editions on DVD.
#3 Star Wars Episode I The Phantom Menace "Special Edition" score. A petition was created for that and signed by a lot of people. It was sent off to Lucasfilm and Sony Classical not too long after the "Ultimate Edition" came out yet that was turned down. I also think this is the reason why we don't have an UE style for Epiodes II and III score right now.
Need I continue?
As people have said all ready in this thread petitions are useless. You can try but I doubt this petition will go ANYWHERE. As also stated the re-use fees for a complete release of this particular score will be horid. I don't think there will be a company that will want to pay those re-use to release the complete score for this film.

Crappy... it also looks like they repeated the special features 3 times... If I had done the disc, I would've put a friggen DTS track on there and an isolated score, then put all the other features on the 2nd disc (nothin uglier than a movie with tons of features on the first disc and a horribly compressed picture).Clayton

Clayton<HR size=1></BLOCKQUOTE>No doubt. Compressed movies are sucky for HDTV movie viewers so I hate them with a passion. A DTS track for this film would've probably been pretty good.

An on-line petition was made a number of years ago to get MGM to release a widescreen version of Charly, after a pan and scan copy was announced. That petition was a success. You can read about it here.Neil

Composer David Arnold has informed me that La La Land Records will be releasing a quite comprehensive, meaning complete or nearly complete, release of the score to Godzilla form 1998, sometime early this year!

This is definitely a score worthy of a full release, if for no other reason than the fact that Arnold doesn't write too many big action scores these days (especially outside of the Bond genre). Some awesome cues, for sure; typically massive, exciting action from Arnold. The promo's sound quality has always been pretty lackluster, so I'd probably get a full release.

btw, for those "doubters" above, La La Land Records has told me, "I'm sorry but I cannot comment on this project at this time." in e-mails previously!Read that again, "I'm sorry but I cannot comment on (this project) at this time."
"This Project"
They ARE doing a score release for Godzilla, why else would they say this project? If they were NOT doing anything with it, would they not just simply say that they arent doing anything with it?
sorry, just had to get that out!
Take Care, All~
