Fascinating. It may be too soon to ask, but for those who are planning to buy the triple-disc set of Jerry Goldsmith's score to Star Trek: The Motion Picture: May I ask whoever would recieve on a shipping day to e-mail a download link to the complete triple-disc score? That way, I could save time and money. Thank you very much indeed. Live long and prosper. \\//

I know that the Intrada cover is different and I think the back cover too. The linernotes are the same like the LLL-version, but the grafiks are the same too?
That can be answered only by someone who has bought the Intrada release... Your guess is as good as mine. If I had to speculate, I would say the interior probably is the same. It's a 24-page booklet with a marvelous layout, about 20 movie stills, and I don't see a reason for Intrada to re-arrange the content of the booklet. But as I said, your guess is as good as mine...

They explained that the actual liner note text is the same, as is the music, but the artwork was changed slightly to match the other Intrada /FSM Trek scores, because the LLL release did not match up with those releases, it sort of stuck out with a different design.
So people want the Intrada artwork not only for completeness sake, but also conformity because it will make the release blend in as a complete collection. That's actually why some are buying the album, just for that revised artwork.

No offense, but that's a horrible idea. If you have the LLL version, and you want the Intrada version, you have it. The Intrada only has 3 revised pieces of artwork (front cover, back cover, and the track list on the back).
Don't give me a reason for "completeness sake", because your just wasting your money. The Intrada version is only for people who didn't get the OST in time because it sold out. LLL's version is the rarer one. It's like saying you want the same comic book you already have, even though the cover is the same and it only has new labels on it. It's a waste of money. Simple as taht. Also, about the soundtrack sticking out - my star trek CD collection has many different artworks/covers and they all basically stand out between one another. It's just something you have to deal with.

"No Offense", but I was explaining the reason why people want that artwork.
I don't have a personal stake in it - I wasn't speaking for myself.
I was speaking as someone who has seen time and again, people who WILL INDEED BUY a re-release of an album, or in far more common cases, a DVD or Blu-ray release JUST for new artwork because the 'collector' in them overrides the redundant aspect of buying the same thing in a new package. The collector doesn't care about wasting money, even though that's pretty much what it is just for a sense of uniformity on a bookshelf of albums or movies or TV shows.
Don't believe me? Ask George Lucas why he repackages "Star Wars" in one case after another, first with 6 or 7 VHS releases, all the same except for artwork, and did the same about 3 times on DVD. Fans bought them up all the time.
Repackaged DVDs and Blu-rays is an old business practice. This Intrada release is no different in that sense aside from offering people who didn't get the LLL version a chance to pick it up.

The "A New Hope" was added before there was a VHS release of the film.
The point is, people buy re-packaged stuff all the time, just because it's re-packaged.

HD isn't necessary. It depends were you're sitting. For example: If you have a 42" TV set and you're sitting 3-4 meters from the screen there's no difference in quality. That's why I'm sticking to DVD at least for now.
I generally agree, but if I'd live in a NTSC region I'd surely switch to BluRay.

I have a 42" TV set and I usually sit 4 meters from the screen and there is a HUGE difference in quality. I avoid watching SD material there, because it looks really, really bad.

Now I wonder if anybody has the time & inclination to compare this release with the various boots of sessions, etc and come up with a list of stuff on the boots that are NOT covered here.
BTW my comp of various TREK themes is still at my music blog, including the Now Sound Orchestra's version of "A Star Beyond Time" with a female vocalist and slightly different lyrics.

The La-La Land TMP is aural bliss. It sounds far superior to the previous Sony album and is light years better than the "Deluxe Edition" that was uploaded here a while back, not to mention the awesome design of the packaging and liner notes. It's truly a special release, well worth the money, and I also think it shouldn't be shared until it sells out, at least not in lossless.

Don't apologize to me. Apologize to Wildwood Park, he's the one who sent you the private link.
Look, I don't hold anything against you personally. After all, the whole point of this forum is to share music. But you have to understand that some people (especially Wildwood) prefer to share music privately as opposed to publicly. Usually when someone sends me a link via PM, they ask that I not share it publicly, and I always abide by that. If someone who bought the CD wants to publicly share it with the rest of the group, then they're more than welcome to do that.

Considering that you completely violated his trust and, despite admitting as such and "apologizing" for hours on end, not having the decency to remedy your offense until it was done for you, I'd say you got off easy being called a jerk. The fact that you then chastise your victim for such a mild rebuke indicates that you're deserving of far more colorful invectives.

Most of my top film scores have been re-released in the last 2 years and this is one I've been waiting a long time for. As a sound designer/composer myself I find that first disc a thing of beauty! It is one of the best examples of remastering of an original film score I've ever heard. There is some clipping in the left speaker at about 2:05 in Meet V'Ger but I think this is a result from recording rather than a fault in the mastering process. Those raw orchestral excerpts of the Main Theme, The Force Field and The Cloud on disc 3 are wonderful to listen to. If only Craig Huxley played the Beam at the demo rather than just thwacking the thing! :-)

Yes, it's somewhat irritating indeed, but according to my dictionary, motive can indeed have the same meaning as motif. I didn't know that either, and personally, I'd always prefer "motif", it reminds me of the German term "Leitmotiv", which, basically, was made popular in the 19th century by Richard Wagner. I even saw the word leitmotiv used in English textes; there is no translation for it in the English language!

The worst one IMO is when people write "should of" or "could of" instead of "should've" and "could've". They just type how the word sounds but what they are typing makes no sense; "I should of known", "We could of made it". Drives me mad but it is so common.

Got my TMP today. Slowwwww shipping La-La Land, cmon! At least give people an incentive to buy rather than pirate, in the form of getting to listen to the music first.
For some reason I got the shrinkwrapped jewel case, along with another printout of the front cover. Was there a printing error? Or did they give us 2 covers just for fun?
Anyone remember the post where some guy got some really good HQ source for "Captain's Log / Warp Drive" and "System Inoperative / Hidden Information"?
I compared those versions against the ones on the LLL album, and the LLL ones seemed inferior with far more hiss. Thoughts anyone?

Quoting Penny Parker: "The booklet is very informative but how long has "motive" been the American spelling of "motif"?!? Not seen that one before. I'm surprised how something so trivial can be so damn annoying when you read it twelve times in as many minutes."
Agreed. As a Canadian who's been living in the states since 1986, I don't believe most North Americans treat the word "motif" ever as "motive" – had to have been the writer thinking it was correct, incorrectly.

La La Land seem to remaster soundtracks by keeping as close to the original recording material as possible so we get as little degradation as possible and a good quality final product. This is what I prefer. It doesn't matter how good your hiss/noise reductions tools are, if you remove anything from the recording you will loose definition as you are also removing any audio in the same removed frequencies. Look at it this way... Would you rather have a good quality score with some hiss and wide open soundstage where you can hear every little nuance, or an over processed remastering where most of the hiss is gone as has the openness and any sound in the removed frequencies? ;-)

Could be worst, the other album has it named as Vejur Flyover. :P
This is because in the Roddenberry novelization (and on the Goldsmith soundtrack LP), it is spelled VEJUR not V'GER. The source for this may be Roddenberry, and then Goldsmith taking it from the Great Bird.
Does anybody know if the "original" Alan Dean Foster script (or the other ones) spelled it VEJUR or V'GER?
My guess is that the VEJUR spelling comes from the idea that Kirk or whoever, on hearing the name for the first time, might have spelled it VEJUR. How would a listener know that the sound was an abbreviation of something longer, and thus it required an apostrophe?
Simply because my first exposure in print was to the Roddenberry novelization and to the soundtrack LP, VEJUR seems more "authentic" to me. But that's just a feeling.
(And that simple feeling is beyond Vejur's/V'Ger's comprehension.)

Well, it's pretty interesting. There's some "slash" fuel when Roddenberry puts in a footnote that the Vulcan word Spock uses for Kirk can mean "super-close friend" or "lover." Also you can really tell that Roddenberry believes in the perfectability of the human being.
That belief is a pretty naive viewpoint in my opinion. As I often say to other people who also have to work with the public, "If you don't believe in original sin, you've never had to sweep up a parking lot!" -- In other words, people are just NASTY sometimes.
But yep, Roddenberry's book (which I believe MAY have been at least partially ghosted by Alan Dean Foster) is, to quote Popeye and not Spock, FAS-kinatin'.

Where did Dennis say that? Did you see it online or something? He would have NO SAY one way or the other regarding any releases on that, it would be up to the studio, and as far as I know, Paramount has no plans in the next year to do anything on "Generations". I just spoke to my friend Pete over at Paramount regarding any upcoming music situations on Wednesday, and he says that there is nothing in the works. I will touch bases with him next week and see if Dennis is speaking thru his hat (again) regarding any music on this.

2CD's would be odd. Minus the sound effects library on the old GNP, there's about 44 minutes of score. The unreleased music, including alternate film versions, is about 23 minutes.
That's 67 minutes total for the complete score.
I know the End Credits music was original the opening credits and they moved it, so I would speculate there's an Ed Credits cue we've never heard. The End Credits in the film runs about 3:30 (approximated). That would then be 70:30 total CD time.
I'm not sure how they are going to fill two CD's unless he recorded score for deleted orbital diving scenes, and there's alternate cues worthy of a CD, and demos. That's the only way then.

So far all of the original series cast movies and First Contact have their complete scores released. I have no doubt that not only Generations but also Insurrection and Nemesis, will also have their complete scores released too.
It's not a question of "if" but more of "who and when" we will see them released.

While I am looking forward to a complete version of Generations as I am a completist, the overall music of the film was somewhat underwhelming. There were some great and powerful moments of music in the film, but in my opinion, Dennis McCarthy fails to capture the wonder and grandeur of Goldsmith. This film was meant to be epic in scope, and this soundtrack somehow seems to miss the mark on many occasions. There are some wonderful cue's, particularly the opening credits build-up to the introduction of the Enterprise-B, but these moments are few and far between in this score.

i've always wished ron jones hadn't been fired from tng because he might've gone on to score generations and that would've been epic
i think a ron jones scored trek film, with the composer having access to a larger orchestra (and budget) would've captured the spirit of goldsmith and horner

No, McCarthy was always the first choice. Whgy ever would you ask?
Goldsmith was the first choice on TMP.
A producer considered Miklos Rozsa for TWoK.
Horner was always the first choice on TSFS.
Horner was under some consideration for TVH, but Nimoy wanted Rosenman.
Goldsmith was always on TFF.
Suposedly, though never really fully confirmed, Poledouris was considered for TUC.
McCarthy was being considered for FC, but they always wanted Goldsmith and when his schedule opened up...
And everybody else was first on each film thereafter.

When the news broke that there was a 6th Trek film being done, Starlog reported James Horner was going to provide the score. They issued a retraction later, but I don't know if it was a bit of bad info, or Horner didn't accept the job. I do remember reading a quote of his saying he had "outgrown" Star Trek. Whatever the hell that means....

Actually, to be totally factual, Alexander Courage was the ONLY one that Roddenberry went to for the first pilot. Goldsmith was approached, and had actually done some work on the second pilot! Jerry himself had told me that he was very interested in doing that project, but something with the studios popped up in his face, and then some other project came along, I really don't remember specifically which one, think it may have been a movie. But it had nothing to do with anything that Roddenberry had done, there was a problem with Paramount execs, he had told me directly! I had also talked with Fred Steiner regarding this problem, and he also told me that Roddenberry was great to work with, but there were massive problems with the idiots in the studios, who did not know anything about the movie/TV business, and always wanted to cause problems.
Me, myself have never had that problem, as I ALWAYS have someone between me and the execs, someone that can act as a "buffer" between us. When a stupid order comes down, I just do as I'm told, regardless of my personal feelings, and when everything goes to hell, then we all know exactly where to place the blame, and I get MORE money to go back and do the project the way that it should have been done in the first place. If nobody asks for my opinion, I will not offer it. They think that they know everything about movie making, let them risk their jobs and positions being idiots! I really don't care!
In all fairness, there have been a couple of people who were fair to me, and my crew, and stood back and let us "do our thing" and supported us in the final result, however people like that, in this business are few and far between!
Anyway, that is my two cents on that subject.

I had a musician tell me Jerry had a score replaced on the TOS pilot. I thought he was confusing it with something else. Guess there was -- if your information about his material on the second pilot is true -- some middle ground of reality to it.
I jsut didn't know which pilot, so I just used the word to server as a catch-all.

Well, not one for wanting to be negative all the time, and still thinking that maybe he's one of those suit wearing execs we all know and hate... Hehehe, I can only just report the FACTS, as I know them. If you view them as negative, that's your own perception, not my slant on the situation. And I never said that I was friends with Mr. Courage, not at all! I had only met him thru all the crap work I was doing with Neil Norman over at Crescendo. We were not friends, not then, not now. I really didn't like the man all that much, and disliked Fred Steiner even more. They both seemed like spoiled little kids when it came to "their music", unlike Jerry Goldsmith, who was a real peach of a man. John Williams was another, a GREAT guy to deal with, (And NO, he's not a friend of mine either!) but I only met him a couple of times as well!
GEEEEZZZ, I always wondered how my words get turned around, and make me out to be the bad guy! But, that's what happens in the movie business. As I was just telling another person on this board, you CANNOT have friends in the biz! If you are nice to anyone, do anyone a good turn or favor, they will stab you in the back faster that you can say "well, F**K me, sideways"! If you look at all the scars in my back, you'll understand. They smile in your face, and then screw you over behind your back. I cannot tell you how many untalented creeps, like Neil, have taken credit for work done by others, and tried to promote their own careers with false credits, work that was done by people that I know personally, and then these creeps become studio execs or some higher position, so they can tell YOU what needs to be done. These are the same execs that I had mentioned previously. If Gwent wants to defend the actions of these execs, he has that right!

I cannot tell you how many untalented creeps, like Neil, have taken credit for work done by others, and tried to promote their own careers with false credits, work that was done by people that I know personally, and then these creeps become studio execs or some higher position, so they can tell YOU what needs to be done. These are the same execs that I had mentioned previously. If Gwent wants to defend the actions of these execs, he has that right!

you worked at gnp crescendo? kudos to you. :)
No, I actually worked WITH Crescendo. Wish that it was at a time when Gene Norman was in control, (Hence the GNP in the name), but it was after Neil took control from his dad. :(
Yes, Neil had taken ALL of my recordings, all of the TOS SFX, and wanted to see, from the studio, if they were a "viable project"! What he was really doing was getting approval for the project from Paramount, and thus screwing me out of not only involvement for the project, but also any money for my recordings, which he had promised me 5% of the total GROSS!!! However, he got written permission from the studio to go ahead with the project, turned around and forwarded the original tapes of the SFX, and the "Cage" music over to a company in Japan to clean them up and make them digital. I got them back about 6 months later, when Neil told me that the studio had turned him down, then the records, tapes and CDs came out about 8 months after that! Needless to say, Neil refused to speak to me, changed his phone number, dodged my calls at the office, and with the proceeds from the SFX CDs alone, BOUGHT himself a brand new house just north of Malibu! If memory serves, it was something like 1.7 or 1.8 million dollar house, which he had put down 1.2 million for!!! I had a friend that worked with him at the time. You can check my previous posts for more of that story!

Well, look. I have seen some material elsewhere regarding the subject, and decided I just don't care. I make a conscious choice to take members at face value, as they do me. With very few exceptions, I do not converse with any members outside of this forum. I only care about who y'all are on here. I am not always a fan of William's posts, but I don't see the harm in any of the stories he posts here. Whether or not you believe them, many find them and the conversations in general to be entertaining.
As for what he has shared, he has posted numerous things that were not easily obtainable to members here, and that will be their bottom line. Ultimately, none of us care where he got the material, we only care that he shared. Most of the stuff posted around here is from other sites or blogs. That is the nature of these sites. One archive is generally spread around all over, but you know that. As for his well of goodies running dry, that is gonna happen sooner or later. There is only so much unreleased material. And, with the newer releases popping up, a lot of it has become dated. So what.
As to your sarcastic jab at the "pirates" here, it is not welcomed. We have all made choices about what we do or don't chose to partake of. We all rationalize it, but poking at folks for doing it is silly. This whole sub-forum is dedicated to sharing, so if that is an issue then I suggest you leave. No offense, that is the same thing I tell everyone who makes comments about the sharing here.
Sci-Fi fans are notorious for expressing their feelings, and Trek fans particularly so. Odd, that so many can be so negative towards a product they claim to love so much, but that is hardly new and doesn't look to ever change. Almost every fan has their idea on how to make it better. And, when the directors and writers listen and take some of those directions, other fans become livid. It is the same with the Superhero movies. Meh, just is.
This is hardly Willy's (HA! He'll' love that!) forum. Many, many members are more active around here than he is, and have more recognition. (Myself included) But this IS his thread. He started it, and of course he is going to be prominently active. Why shouldn't he be. As for your comments about his "fans" and "followers", 'tis the cult of Willy, here in Willydome (:erm: sounds wierd, wrong, and oddly erotic..). I think they just mostly enjoy talking to him. Doesn't really come down to belief. Who really believes anything said in a blog? They are entertaining stories and that's the bottom line there. Your comments about his "fans" can easily be interprated as insults to all of us, and frankly it's hutful and uneeded.
This thing with you seems to be a pretty open personal vendetta, and it gets tiring. You have all of the Shrine to post in, yet you chose to come in here and rag on William. You claim to want us to "see the truth"? The truth looks like you are willing to do or say anything at all in an effort to drive him from the site. Despite the ban, and the repeated requests for restraint, you just don't seem able to help yourself, so you are coming off as the bad guy here, not him. :notgood: why do you care so much? Why not just avoid this thread. OR, dunno, contribute something. It just makes no sense.

Well, not one for wanting to be negative all the time, and still thinking that maybe he's one of those suit wearing execs we all know and hate... Hehehe, I can only just report the FACTS, as I know them. If you view them as negative, that's your own perception, not my slant on the situation. And I never said that I was friends with Mr. Courage, not at all! I had only met him thru all the crap work I was doing with Neil Norman over at Crescendo. We were not friends, not then, not now. I really didn't like the man all that much, and disliked Fred Steiner even more. They both seemed like spoiled little kids when it came to "their music", unlike Jerry Goldsmith, who was a real peach of a man. John Williams was another, a GREAT guy to deal with, (And NO, he's not a friend of mine either!) but I only met him a couple of times as well!
GEEEEZZZ, I always wondered how my words get turned around, and make me out to be the bad guy! But, that's what happens in the movie business. As I was just telling another person on this board, you CANNOT have friends in the biz! If you are nice to anyone, do anyone a good turn or favor, they will stab you in the back faster that you can say "well, F**K me, sideways"! If you look at all the scars in my back, you'll understand. They smile in your face, and then screw you over behind your back.

Couldn't agree more. William is a great guy. He really works for Hollywood. And GNP Crescendo. And Sony music and has Titanic recording sessions. And Pinewood studios and has Space 1999 sound effects.
In fact, I'll bet the La La Land ST TMP set came from his personal copies of Goldsmith's recoding sessions, handed to him personally by the maestro.
And even though he was born in 1969 he was personally there when Star Trek TOS was filmed and worked with Sandy Courage on both pilots. He really is a Hollywood Insider. And he risks his job every day to visit this forum and break the laws of the music companies and the studios. I believe that.
I, on the other hand, am nothing but a mouth breathing corporate executive hell bent on spoiling everyone's fun.
Does that make sense to you? You know what?? I'll bet it does!!

You totally missed the point, in that there are not only sub-forums, but a specific thread just for this sort of bitching/discussing/mocking. Nearly anywhere in the General Discussion thread. Possibly in the Film Music Hunt discussion thread, and most specifically in the Butthurt thread.
My point, dear sir, is that we are **supposed** to keep this sort of discussion off of the Download forum. Generally speaking. When the discussion is about the topic, and in the topic's thread, mods tend to give some slack. BUT, you are not on the thread topic. You are not discussing the music, or any of that. You are engaging in this rhetoric, and that should not be a part of this section. I have not yet seen you just discuss our mutual hobbies in this or any other thread. I don't give a shit one way or the other about who William is, pretends to be or generally anything remotely personal. I am not real sure why you do? I mean, here in THIS forum, he is not doing any harm. I **understand** perfectly some of the "research" innuendos, accusations etc on other boards. I did read every last bit I saw posted. And, I still just don't care. I have not stated whether I believe or not. I stated I could care less. THAT is my point.
BTW, you keep talking in circles. You need not bother. Just pop into the thread, and type "you know. Yadda yadda blah blah William blech whaterver". We will all know what you mean. You have been repeating the same things for years now. Why. Why does it matter to you, and why hang in there this long, and be this bitter?

I've followed this thread for quite some time and I have to say that this seems that one poster (Gwent) seems to take perverse pleasure in trying to hurt the credibility of a valued and respected member of this forum who had contributed a wealth of material, knowledge, and personal anecdotes. Maybe Gwent is simply jealous, has a negative personality, or is compensating for some personal inadequacies and has no other vehicle to experience any personal vindication. In any case, it would be nice if he could keep his obnoxious and inappropriate and sarcastic opinions to himself as the rest of us aren't really interested inhis opinion of another poster. We can all formulate our own opinions and ideas without any assistance from him.

So I was watching the 1986 animated version of Transformers: The Movie, and lo and behold, after watching an early theatrical trailer that I found online, the music from the trailer is mostly from Star Trek III: The Search for Spock. I'm very curious if this was actually licensed or how this came about. The trailer is available at the following link although it is extremely poor quality.

We need a new a new composer for the next Trek film. Call me crazy, but in my opinion, Michael Giacchino's score to Star Trek leaves me a little cold. Maybe it's the fault of the producer's who kept telling him to make it different, but his style seems a bit bland to me. I listen to the soundtrack every once in a while, but I don't seek it out like I do with other Trek scores. Maybe it will be a little different for the next film, but I wouldn't bet on it. Unfortunately, J.J. Abrams and Michael Giacchino are buddies, so having him choose a different composer for even the third film is extremely unlikely. Any thoughts?

Well, I feel the same when playing Giacchino's score, and many of us old trekkers (I'm born in 1961) had hoped to get more of some retro-trek style music, call it some kind of hommage to those old composers like Fred Steiner, Sandy Courage, Gerald Fried (Amok Time, yeah!!) etc. Yes, we got Courage's fanfare and all, but that's not enough for my taste. He DID, if I recall correctly, compose quite a good retro-score for Mission Impossible, with that wonderful Lalo Shifrin tune. Let's hope his score for Star Trek 2013 will be better in that regard!

While I don't completely dislike the last Trek film, as a Trekkie, I do have quite a few issues with it. There's no need to go into detail, suffice it to say I was not pleased with the total and utter disregard for established canon. There is also something missing in the film. It feels like the emphasis was placed on eye-candy and not story. There was a lot of form over functionality. The Enterprise bridge looks like the Apple store which I personally don't believe is a good thing. But more to the point, the way these characters were written, they just didn't feel like the characters we have come to know and love over the past several decades.
I'm tired of hearing how they are just getting to know one another and all that BS, people's characters and personality generally don't change because of a new acquaintance. It just felt like Star Trek Lite to me; As if the writers were pandering to the reality TV generation. It's something I have a great deal of difficulty articulating, but it is what it is. I sincerely hope that the music and writing in the second film begin to come somewhat closer to what made people fall in love with the franchise to begin with.
Hollywood needs to stop completely re-inventing things and tampering with what does work. Star Trek had its issues, but in my opinion, they were rooted in the studio treating it like a bastard step-child and milking it for every penny it was worth without giving it a decent budget. Now we have the budget, let's treat it like Star Trek. Let's get back to actually exploring and discovering something new. A villain does not need to be a physical person. I wish the writers understood this.

Well, it was really obvious to me that the 2009 trek movie was just a reworked version of Star Trek:Nemesis. I mean, in Nemesis, you had a man who hated Picard, who had a planet killing device, who was going to destroy Earth, and Picard had to kill him before that happened!
In the 2009 movie, you had a man who hated Spock, who had a planet killing device, who was going to destroy Vulcan and Earth, and Kirk and Spock had to kill him before that happened! See anything similar?
On a side note, I just got a PM from GWENT! He said that he's taking the summer off, because his computer is down, and apparently, sending his little notes via his phone or some other device for a couple of months, and he's just not up to using that to spare with me, the way that he can. He then turned around and totally denied that he had admitted to be Mr. Owens, as he had done on the old 1999 thread, which I had reported at the time, and then ended the PM by trying to refer to me as "George"!!! I have no idea who he thinks I am, but he did say that he KNOWS that I don't work in the entertainment business! Exactly where I work, or where he thinks I work, I have no idea, totally! I asked him if he was off his meds, or just having a bad reaction to them.
Well, anyway, the good news is that we may all have a little vacation from vapid comments for a short while, none the less.

I wish the writers understood this.
i couldn't agree with you more.
it bothers me that they are trying to make it a star wars clone. abrams even said (i'm paraphrasing) that when they were writing it, they said "what can we learn from star wars?"
don't get me wrong, i love star wars, but star trek is an entirely different entity. roddenberry certainly had adventure and excitement in mind when he created trek, but he also created it as a platform to discuss topical/controversial issues in the guise of a sci-fi adventure. i don't think abrams gives a damn about continuing that tradition.
the new trek is a soulless eye candy extravaganza that has become little more than self-parody. paramount doesn't care as long as it's making them tons of cash. they couldn't give a shite if the original core fans are upset with the direction trek is going. that's the most frustrating thing. we can whine and moan about the new trek all we want, but we have to accept that abrams is probably going to continue the trends he started in '09 with the next film

Well, it was really obvious to me that the 2009 trek movie was just a reworked version of Star Trek:Nemesis. I mean, in Nemesis, you had a man who hated Picard, who had a planet killing device, who was going to destroy Earth, and Picard had to kill him before that happened!
In the 2009 movie, you had a man who hated Spock, who had a planet killing device, who was going to destroy Vulcan and Earth, and Kirk and Spock had to kill him before that happened! See anything similar?
On a side note, I just got a PM from GWENT! He said that he's taking the summer off, because his computer is down, and apparently, sending his little notes via his phone or some other device for a couple of months, and he's just not up to using that to spare with me, the way that he can. He then turned around and totally denied that he had admitted to be Mr. Owens, as he had done on the old 1999 thread, which I had reported at the time, and then ended the PM by trying to refer to me as "George"!!! I have no idea who he thinks I am, but he did say that he KNOWS that I don't work in the entertainment business! Exactly where I work, or where he thinks I work, I have no idea, totally! I asked him if he was off his meds, or just having a bad reaction to them.
Well, anyway, the good news is that we may all have a little vacation from vapid comments for a short while, none the less.

i also noticed a lot of similarities to nemesis. shinzon and nero are both very one dimensional characters whose motives are never fully explained. it never made total sense to me why shinzon so hated picard and the federation. in nero's case, i don't understand why he hated a man that had been desperately trying to save romulus...okay, so spock failed to prevent the destruction of romulus in the 24th century...but the way nero acts, you'd think spock had been responsible for destroying nero's home planet.
i blame the recent trend of lame, one dimensional villains in trek on lazy writers. i can picture abrams and orci and company coming up with the idea for a villain "we gotta make him mean and scary. and he hates the federation and spock" "why?" "who cares? just make him really scary and stuff!"
and the worst thing is they're gonna take a classic character (khan) who was complex and multi-faceted and transform him into another nero or shinzon for the next film.

I think The concept as a whole is ok, but i can't help but wonder, with the ability to go forward and backward in time, they could eventially get things right. I know there's a temperal directive which begs the question, could someone go back and Bitch Slap J.J. Abrams, Roberto Orci, and Alex Kurtzman before the Deal had gotten started and maybe locked them in the basement till some else, anybody else did Star Trek.
Problem was they did it that way to piss with the Fans anyway. And were said to hate Star Trek. In fact I think they do what they do to screw with the public.

Well if it wasn't the JJ Abrams movie, the franchise would be gathering dust at the moment, and there wouldn't be any interest to release any of the Star Trek scores.

This isn't a question of did they re-invigorate the franchise? They obviosuly did. That doesn't mean that the story was well written or that it was good science fiction. Paramount for the first time put an A-list director, a huge budget, and A-list star's into the mix. In my opinion, it would have been difficult to have not succeeded given the resources they had at their disposal. And by the way, the same people who are currently interested in Trek scores would still be interested today whether they had created that film or not.

I really think that this trend to "Un-invent" canon Star Trek started really with Rick Berman, and Brannon Braga, the "B&B" boys. They loved throwing all sorts of things like that. Spock was supposed to be the first Vulcan to join Starfleet, which was mentioned in TOS, and then T'Pol comes along, 78 years before Spock, and now SHE's joined Starfleet! W T F????
Then "Zefrane Cochran" isn't from "Alpha Centauri" like was mentioned in TOS, he's from EARTH!!! W T F???
This was set in motion by the B&B Boys, and the snowball keeps getting bigger. What next? Kirk was born on Rigel?
GGGGEEEEEEZZZZZZ

Oddly enough, I can't find the CLUB47 music in my own STO rip.
I can't find it in the archives!!!
Btw, does anyone know if the "Year of Hell" score was ever leaked?
I think its Dennis McCarthy's finest work on Star Trek!

What we need is originality in plot and no more time-travel BS. Stop making the characters act like teenagers. I think what the issue is is that Star Trek was always a little more cerebral which I found lacking in the last film. Even though Nero's motivatins are explroed in the Countdown comic companion which serves as a prequel to the event sof the film, his motivation is illogical; Nothing more than the misguided agenda of a madman. Star Trek deserves more than that. There should be some new threat not jsut to the Federation, but to the galaxy itself. The threat should be somewhat mystrious and literally just scare the hell out of people. The Unknown!!! That is what Star Trek is suposed to be. Exploring the unknown. Sometimes the Unknown can be wondrous, and sometimes it can be frightening and haunting. Bring the franchise back to that. This concept I beleive would really work and could lay the framework for a multi-film story arc. Im not advocating for a "To be continued", however, there should be a partial resolution which doesn't answer all of the questions and can be addressed later. And for the love of G-d, please do not re-hash the Spock/Uhura relationship. It made absolutely no sense.

If we're nitpicking canon, then let's get our canon correct. It was never stated that Spock was the "first" Vulcan in Starfleet -- that was fan lore invented in the 70s for unofficial publications. In fact, in the TOS episode "The Immunity Syndrome," there is reference to the starship Intrepid being "entirely manned by Vulcans." It makes no sense that there would be 430 OTHER Vulcans in Starfleet, several of whom would outrank Spock, if he had been the very first.
Additionally, when we first see Zephram Cochrane in "Metamorphosis," he's referred to as being "of" Alpha Centauri -- not "from." There's a difference. We have no idea what happened to him after his warp test. The implication is that he must have settled on Alpha Centauri some time after that.
Mind you, I have no great love of "B&B." They aren't the greatest dramatists out there, nor are they the best TV showrunners. But they rarely, if ever, flat-out contradicted canon. If anything, they were experts at finding the grey/undeveloped areas and using those as springboards.

Well, Spock's mother had told Kirk about him being the first Vulcan to join Starfleet against his father's wishes! And the Vulcan crew of the Intrepid happened YEARS after Spock's academy days. Spock was on the Enterprise for it's first five year mission, with Captain Pike, plus we don't know when the Intrepid came about. It could have been it's maiden voyage when it was destroyed. No info one way or the other.
Why would you refer to a person as "of" a place if they are not from there? Would you say "Arnold Swartzenegger" of California, or from Austria? It's just a matter of perception, or opinion.
And speaking of perception, how is it that you joined here in January of 2010, over two years ago, and this is your first post? And on this subject, to rebuff my statement? Seems almost as if you have an agenda, and decided to use one of your old sockpuppet accounts!
But that is just my perception.
Curious, William

Mr. Spock served with captain Pike for 11 years. Not five.

A first post is a first post. I chose to post about this because I know more about Star Trek than general soundtracks, that's all. I've heard/read my share of Trek criticisms in which people use incorrect "canon" to defend their opinion that canon was violated. I just wanted to set the record straight on this one.
To address your two points, Spock's mother did not refer to him as the first Vulcan in Starfleet -- only that he joined against his father's wishes. And yes, I would generally say refer to Schwarzenegger as "of" California, since that's where he has spent most of his life. However, as you said, that one's a matter of perception, which proves the point that B&B weren't exactly violating canon by using the reference. They were merely filling in an existing gap in detail.

Notice the oddity of the TOS Enterprise mission plan?
Pike? Oh, he can just have that for eleven years. Kirk? Who the fuck is he? No, no -- he can only have a five-year mission.
Which will involve NO APPARENT MISSION, and flying around randomly and doing things with no apparent five-year mission relation, and somehow manage to always save planets and the universe by being hte only ship in the area. Then, give him a half-assed refit that later needs improvements, only the second time around done my a pack of monkeys who can't even get the doors to open rights, and just as things are dying down and he might be able to have a peaceful run, tell him you're he's ordered to surrender the ship so it can be de-commissioned.
Oh, and later on have him show up for the inaugural flight of the Enterprise B, with a quick trip to Pluto and back, and somehow be the ONLY FREAKIN' SHIP in the area of Earth's solar system -- never mind they have other ships and transmission arrays that could have picked that distress signal up and had other ships in reach arrive about the same time, no -- only the Enterprise B is in the immediate and adjacent solar systems.
Oh, my -- this has turned into a rant.
