My four Indy scores look rather awkward lined up together on my shelf: DCC Raiders; Japanese Temple; Warner Crusade; and cardboard Crystal Skull.

The digi pack.. is that similar to the piece of **** wannabe case that The Lost World: Jurassic Park came in?

That Lost World case has driven me up the wall... it remains the only CD of mine that is scratched (due in no small part to the idiotic case it came in).

Am I the only person who doesn't mind digipaks? Maybe it's because I have a lot of them, but they don't bother me.Now the liner notes of KotCS? That crappy thing bothers me. Terrible art direction and a useless note from Steven Spielberg. I have to admit, the score is growing on me (but it's still the least of the Indy scores, for me).
Tonight! I'm seeing it!

Just got back from seeing it. Way over-the-top and ridiculous, but in a really good way. The movie was all kinds of great. It's not the end-all-be-all Indiana Jones movie, but it definitely hits the likeable meter somewhere between Raiders and Last Crusade. It's better than Temple of Doom, for sure. All in all it fits well on the shelf with the others.So tempted to say a lot of things, but I don't want to spoil it. A lot of you already have an inkling of where Steven and George are gonna take it. How they take it there is a little different than what I expected, which made it better for me. Thank God they didn't turn Indiana Jones into Daniel Jackson. I don't think I could have handled that.
Also, regarding the score... DAMMIT. THEY DID IT AGAIN. So much great music, even thematic references to The Holy Grail theme from Last Crusade. And the Jungle Chase. Arghhhh! The album version is totally edited and trimmed down to a mere whisper of what it actually is. Sucks monkey balls. I'd love to have an expanded version of this score; there's a ton of great material that simply didn't make it onto the disc. That said, I enjoy the score a lot more now than I did having not seen it *surprise, I know*.
Anyway, the movie is out and the polls are running! What did you think? I'm gonna give it the weekend and then all bets are off; if you haven't seen it by Monday, just don't read any of my posts, as I'll be no-holds-barred about spoilers.
Off you go!

I pretty much agree with Jeron, I thought it was very good and Shia was nowhere near as annoying as I thought he would be.

Isn't the album cue of Jungle Chase almost completely intact? Okay, there's a first half of the chase that's unreleased, but it's not like there are major edits on the album cue.

There's a chunk missing from the middle of the album cue.

It's a straight firm confirmation that it's just a reissue of the original three scores combined with The Crystal Skull as the 4th disc. Now whether or not the other three are full 80 minute CD's not quite sure yet we'll find out more this fall. Either way if you don't want to believe it's a reissue then I give up because no point in trying to tell you other wise.Well, you are generating the confusion entirely on your own. We know and do not doubt that the scores are being "reissued," so we are more interested in whether or not these releases will be in expanded form. Your comments from unknown sources are contradictory ("just a reissue" plus "80 minutes") and do nothing but cloud the waters.
