Nope, it's a masterpiece, and a hugely underrated Spielberg action film. Every time I go back to it, I like it more. Actually, one aspect I never connected with tremendously was the score. I remember sitting in the theater as a teenage proto-JW-fan joking with my brother that that Williams was phoning it in on this one. I've since come to appreciate the Herrmann-isms, but it's still nowhere near the top for me.
That said, for the first time in my life on God's green earth, I listened to the samples of the re-release and ACTUALLY PERCEIVED an increase in sound quality, even on my cheap speakers at work. If this is still around for the next La La Land sale, I might bite. [Hears the echo of his own words when E.T. was released and shudders...]

As previously mentioned, the ost is one of the best sounding recordings you will EVER hear.
If this improves upon that...!

jamesluckard’s enthusiasm for this film does my heart good to see on this board. It’s not on any list of mine, but I appreciate how far he went in with it.
Yeah, right! I don't think I'd be that deep into it that I'd be wanting Danny's wardrobe or whatever, but the calling Fox for all the specific music is a thing teenage me did far too often (in the pre-internet days).
Good on him.
Movie still fucking SUCKS. Kidding hahaha

I don't hear Herrmann but there is no mistake about it but Spyders is taken from Franz Waxman's Taras Bulba.

Have received mine yesterday - had no problem with ripping both CDs to my computer.
The score presentation itself is gorgeous. Anybody who enjoyed this score before will delight in the completeness of this now. The sound is excellent.

To repeat: the ost is one of the BEST SOUNDING recordings ever!
If you are thinking about buying this for " improvedsound" you may be disappointed.
