The forthcoming "300 Deluxe Edition" set will include three additional score cues plus a remix by Philip Steir. It also features a 42-page hard-bound art booklet.

They think THIS is worthy of a "complete"

Yeah... I've learned not to ask people that question... Have you ever seen a grown man throw a temper tantrum? Sure it's entertaining to watch... but it sends shivers down the spine as well. Not that I am saying Brian would do that. At least I hope not...

Dramatic would be something like:

Holy f$%^ing $#!t. That piece of crap score? I could think of like 5 Goldsmith/Horner/Williams/ whoever that deserves a "complete" release, "300" are you @#$%$#%$# me??? Go grab "Titus" if you want more (not to mention the original!)

That's dramatic.

But I've seen others.

If you look below where it says Get Warner Bros Exclusives and Updates, you'll see something pretty funny.

But that's cool! They should apologize.

Now that would be sick.

I still bought his "collector's edtion".
Don't get me wrong, I think what he did for 300 may be hurtful for his career, but, i still like the score to 300 (even thought I like Titus more) and his other scores.

You bought 300!? Sweaty men puffing their chests and flaring their nostrils catch you at a weak moment, nuts? I'm surprised you'd even take notice of this piece of junk.

Well, I'll freely admit that it's a piece of junk cinema, but I'm sure it will become a guilty pleasure of some type down the road. The biggest reason for my purchase was the hopes that my $14.99 might pursuade Warner Bros. that Zach Snyder needs full creative control and whatever budget he needs for Watchmen. And coming from a man who praises Frankenfish and plans to christen his child "Kirk-Spock" I think you'd understand the need for a guilty please now and again.

Well, as an aspiring filmmaker it's a message that I should plan on living in a cramped, cheap, and run-down apartment for the whole of my adult life if 300's success is an indication of what the public wants to spend their money on.

As for Tyler Bates, my opinion of him specifically isn't harmed at all, as I'd be surprised if he was doing anything other than following orders. I also doubt his career is in jeopardy, as temp track copying doesn't seem to be very uncommon or particularly frowned upon within the film industry. He might piss off a few of the composers he copies, but they aren't the ones doing the hiring.

That disclaimer was pretty fun to read, though.

BTW I enjoyed the 300....did I give a damn that there were sweating men fighting? No. It was just a popcorn flick as I said one I enjoyed. I plan on buying the movie on DVD myself. Except for you who honestly gives a damn if someone else likes it?

Easy there, BigT, I was just talkin' smack at my pal, nuts, and not writing about other people's opinions about the movie. (Just friendly bickering: He went after me for my love of Frankenfish and Star Trek and it made me laugh pretty hard; he's a funny bastard, that one!) As for what my serious opinion of 300 would be, it's the same as Clayton's.

Have you seen the workouts they went through?! Holy crap!

After listening to some of the cues outside of the movie, I have to say I actually like this score more than I did when I saw the movie. But now it's more obvious the things he ripped off, Titus, Gladiator, Passion of The Christ and Black Hawk Down. Some of it reminded me of Smokin' Aces for some reason... But really the only identical copy is Titus. Other than that it's just styled like the other scores.
