FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

LAKESHORE RECORDS TO RELEASE ORIGINAL SOUNDTRACK FOR SURROGATES

Soundtrack Features Original Music by Richard Marvin

(November 10, 2009- Los Angeles, CA) – Lakeshore Records will release the
original soundtrack for SURROGATES, available digitally (iTunes and Amazon
Digital) on November 10th and in stores on November 24, 2009.  Richard Marvin
(U-571, TV’s Three Rivers and Without a Trace) composed the score.

SURROGATES marks the fourth collaboration between director Jonathan Mostow and
composer Richard Marvin – the first three were U-571, Flight of Black Angel,
and Breakdown.  Marvin was a top studio pianist playing for composers including
Maurice Jarre, Jerry Goldsmith, and John Williams.  In the 1980s, he worked with
Mike Post who gave Marvin the opportunity to compose for The A-Team and
Hardcastle & McCormick.  Marvin’s television work also includes Six Feet
Under, In Treatment, Without A Trace, and the new series Three Rivers.

Touchstone Pictures presents SURROGATES, based on the comic book The Surrogates
by Robert Venditti, a gripping action thriller by Jonathan Mostow (Terminator 3:
Rise of the Machine, Breakdown) which also stars Radha Mitchell, Rosamund Pike,
Boris Kodjoe, James Francis Ginty, Michael Cudlitz, James Cromwell, and Ving
Rhames.

People are living their lives remotely from the safety of their own homes via
robotic surrogate—sexy, physically perfect mechanical representations of
themselves. It’s an ideal world where crime, pain, fear and consequences
don’t exist.  When the first murder in years jolts this utopia, FBI Agent
Greer (Bruce Willis) discovers a vast conspiracy behind the surrogate phenomenon
and must abandon his own surrogate, risking his life to unravel the mystery.

SURROGATES in theaters now.  SURROGATES original soundtrack on Lakeshore Records
will be available via iTunes and Amazon Digital on November 10, 2009 and in
stores on November 24, 2009.

Following Bella Swan's ill-fated 18th birthday party, Edward Cullen and his

any cost leads her to take greater and greater risks.

With the help of her childhood friend Jacob Black, Bella refurbishes an old

grisly fate, and the encounter makes it frighteningly clear that Bella is still
in grave danger. In a race against the clock, Bella learns the secret of the

The Heinlein novel is a classic.  It's not especially short for a sci-fi novel
of it's time (1959).
Verhoeven wanted to say very different things than Heinlein did & might have
succeeded if he had a better cast.  A lot of people say that the sub-plot came
from the Archies but I wouldn't know.  I think the sub-plot illustrated 1 of the
things that Verhoeven wanted to say - about how immature young people can be
when they join the military.
The movie was promoted as a straight up action movie & some people never
appreciated the satire.  "Do you you want to know more?" is 1 of my favorite
lines ever.

don`t even like that word. aren`t most ramakes and movies made from books
reimagining of the original story. I didn`t get to see the original BSG

I was in Germany. I liked both the original and the remake. I don`t think the
new BSG was reimagining, because it went along with the original story line, I
think, I missed most of it because Comcast took the Sci Fi channel off  basic
cable. I really like The Starship Troopers (this was a movie someone tried to
stop me from seeing because they didn`t like it), I have no idea what the
original source material was. I`m an original Trekkie from the 1960`s, I saw
Star Trek when it first was shown on TV during the 1960s. I have yet to see the
new movie so I can`t comment, but I`ve heard both bad and good. Now The Nutty
Professor with Jerry Lewis was a very good example of reimagining of the Dr
Jekyll & Mr Hyde story, that went totally wrong when Eddie Murphy remade it.

BSG, reimagining. No problems with it. Abrahms Star Trek, reimagining, no
problems with it. Adapatations I feel much the same about. Except Starship
Troopers. Never has a film strayed so far from the source material, but still
ROCKED! The Brain Bug still haunts me.

The original V was about 25 years ago.  I hardly remember anything about it.  I
can write plenty about how bad it is without making any comparisons to the
original.  Most shows I just ignore & leave it to others if they want to watch
them.  It's just a matter of taste, right?  I hope V gets cancelled, the sooner
the better.
