Intrada Soundtrack Forum

If I remember correctly, INTRADA almost got the rights to TOTAL RECALL. Verese was sweating it out a bit, even offering them smaller projects that they wouldn't go after if INTRADA backed off. It's been a long time, so that info may be more connected to the biding war that happened over RUSSIA HOUSE. Which, once the film came out and did so abysmally, and the Cd's sale were "so-so," I think both INTRADA and VARESE were glad that they didn't do that one.

Again, my memory may be off a little here, but that's how I remember it.

Regarding those few bidding wars, no one really just leaves something for someone else in this business. We won the bids on a few of these goodies over the years simply by offering more money at the time. --Doug[/quote]

What is the actual process of a "bidding war" in the industry? Is it similar to a bidding war in the purchase of real estate, for example?
