EmoVeganBoy Posted April 25, 2013 Share Posted April 25, 2013 LOL! That's awesome! But robots?? ROBOTS?! They are called droids, Siri. And they aren't the ones you're looking for. And no, I didn't get that hilarious made up email because I didn't order this either haha. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dreamover Posted April 25, 2013 Share Posted April 25, 2013 check out this rad interview with mr. shark. http://www.lawrence.com/weblogs/loud-and-local/2013/jan/30/lawrence-based-label-i-am-shark-reissues/ he's just super stoked at getting his logo on something star wars.

circuit bored records Posted April 25, 2013 Share Posted April 25, 2013 I honestly don't see much wrong about the whole "fuck off" comment. There are tons of whiny people that complain about the most minuscule shit. I agree about the original comment not being so bad, although extremely unprofessional, but everyone seems to have forgotten how when he started this thread he made MULTIPLE comments on here to the same effect of telling his customers to fuck off. It was only after everyone (kindly) was telling him, while also making fun of him, that it would be in his best interest to take the original comment down and to be less hostile on the board. Then he kind of disappeared. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then he kind of disappeared. I didn't know the whole situation. I actually have never seen a Star Wars movie so chances are that I missed the last thread about it. But yeah, I didn't see the "fuck off" comment as that bad when it comes to the screen shot that was posted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mr. sincere Posted April 26, 2013 Share Posted April 26, 2013 This is the best review of The Phantom Menace I've seen: "Have you guys ever heard of this movie called The Phantom Menace? It's so crazy. The movie's all about these two eunuch knights who have to protect a stuffy and mean Geisha girl from an army of lego robots. On the way they find this kid who can barely put a sentence together, but has impressive control over machinery. He falls in love with the Geisha girl and decides to become a eunuch knight, though the whole eunuch thing gives him pause. Meanwhile, they also become friends with a Rastafarian frog. It's insane!" Anyway, this release (well, allegedly) is still amazingly odd to me. The fact that it's being put out (well, allegedly) on a relatively unknown label, the fact that it is not big news elsewhere (I don't think), and the fact that in light of the above, the pressing numbers are HUGE. I mean it's not like this is some cult film that only a handful of nerds would want a soundtrack for. I'll be half-shocked when this ends up coming out.

scottheisel Posted April 26, 2013 Share Posted April 26, 2013 I also can't imagine this ever coming out. I'm guessing he has pre-sold a few hundred copies or less. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dreamover Posted April 26, 2013 Share Posted April 26, 2013 I also can't imagine this ever coming out. I'm guessing he has pre-sold a few hundred copies or less. well, he did sell 50 $100 packages. That's $5,000 right there. Though, that's probably licensing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marc32137 Posted April 26, 2013 Share Posted April 26, 2013 The Star Wars collector fan base is pretty big and they aren't that expensive. I'd set up shop at Star Wars Celebration or another con and sell 'em like hot cakes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
One Hundred Fifty-Two Posted April 26, 2013 Share Posted April 26, 2013 well, he did sell 50 $100 packages. That's $5,000 right there. Though, that's probably licensing. If he is lucky. Didn't he say he went through Lucas Films and Sony. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
patrickemmons Posted April 26, 2013 Share Posted April 26, 2013 Licensing has to be way more than $5,000 - the major labels want all the cash up front before delivery, and that means for every single copy sold or unsold Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrrom92 Posted April 26, 2013 Share Posted April 26, 2013 Surprised he even managed to license this, didnt think lucas or Sony would be easy to work with. Especially a small fish like this. What do you guys think it cost him to license this? What kind of price would one expect to pay when licensing from a major? Once the license is purchased there's no more he would need to pay besides actually having the thing cut and pressed? Very curious Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted April 26, 2013 Share Posted April 26, 2013 Probably a million dollars. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dreamover Posted April 26, 2013 Share Posted April 26, 2013 Not sure how he's going to license the other ones since the Disney deal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

michaelmanfredi Posted April 26, 2013 Share Posted April 26, 2013 Part of me really wants this, but i just can't bring myself to pre-order until he receives the records. I have a bad feeling about it. coryemis 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
throwgncpr Posted April 26, 2013 Share Posted April 26, 2013 that meco record is awesome! and I think the music from the phantom menace was really good. The movie on the other hand... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
