On 3/21 they mentioned on their Facebook page that this title might be delayed a couple weeks. So I'm guessing either 3/29 or 4/5 preorder date if not sometime in between.Will Krupp said:I thought AT LONG LAST LOVE was supposed to be available for pre-order as of the 22nd yet I can't seem to find it. Did I miss something?

So the fake music created with editing for the1776 LD is ok. It seems to me your guide to what is integrity and what is not is down to what you personally like...Jack P said:For the same reason I have never bought and never will buy the DVD releases of "1776" for compromising the integrity of the version I experienced on LD.
Mr Redman clearly states that had they been able to include both versions there never would have been the score option you advocate, it was merely a compromise at the time that is no longer necessary. Cleopatra is a straw man because nobody can say what they would do until the footage is found. Your real comparison is Deems Taylor's voice on Fantasia...Jack P said:Nope.
I don't recall a new score or new music being commissioned for the 1776 LD. What I heard was the original version of a whole song being restored to what it always had been and still is on-stage that was then for reasons still impossible to fathom, taken out again for the DVD. The much maligned Overture was also created specifically from materials indicating that this was how such an Overture/Entr'acte was to be created, again using materials that were part of the original production. Now if you'd composed a new Overture decades later for the LD then we'd be talking about something else.Moe Dickstein said:So the fake music created with editing for the1776 LD is ok.

I'm not sure I know what song you mean. Surely you're not talking about "Cool Considerate Men" since that is on the DVD now. A verse of "Piddle, Twiddle, and Resolve" and the reprise of "The Lees of Old Virginia" were/are missing, however.Jack P said:I don't recall a new score or new music being commissioned for the 1776 LD.

So you believe the filmmaker only when they agree with your personal view, gotcha.Jack P said:I do not believe his later stories that what was done on the LD was done without his consent.
