GuestI know its a little off-topic…but…..Interesting did you know this game “American McGee`s Alice”…..Its very Burtonish and Elfmanish….Just Check this link….http://alice.eclipsegn.com/ikonboard/cgi-bin/ikonboard.cgi?s=d81916cd95e250a75e08acf385dc1bf6;act=ST;f=1;t=1009;st=20

GuestMy brother has that game; the visuals are quite beautiful, and I suppose in some ways they are “Burtonish.” I don’t know if I’d call it “Elfmanish” though…but I don’t remember what the music sounded like. It makes me wonder what it would be like if Burton did a movie based on Alice in Wonderland; it would be interesting to see if there were any similarities between his take on it and the game. Plus it would surely be an amazing film.

GuestI remember a while ago there was a rumer that Burton was going to do a movie of that game. The rumer is false, but I think there is a movie being produced. I don’t remember which director is making it.

GuestI remember seeing the trailer for that game a while back!! Definitely had an amazing twist on the whole “Alice in Wonderland” world. Dimension Films were suppose to make a film adaption of the game, after seeing just the trailer, with Wes Craven at the helm but since then, nothing has come of it.

GuestThe score for Alice was composed by former Nine Inch Nails keyboardist Charlie Clouser, whose solo project, Tweaker, is actually quite good from what I have heard. I don’t own any of his Tweaker albums, and I haven’t played the game, but I actually do have that score and it’s not bad. I don’t know if I’d call it “Elfmanish,” though.

GuestAlice Main Theme is so beautyful…..so dark…so sad….and i think what if it was a symphonic sound, it was very elfmanish

GuestAnd i totally disagree with you all! Did you forget about Elfman`s “Freeway” (listen to the tracks from “Music for a darkened theatre vol.2”)??????????? Very Chris Vrennish. And Listen to the Chris Vrenna`s tracks from Alice (from Queen of Heart`s level). Very Elfmanish.

GuestHow nice to see dark-twisted-nightmarish-little-fellows like yourselves… I´m going to do some naughty comments, but, whoa! who cares anyway?
First of all, yes, it is Chris Vrenna himself who make the honors with this candyeye (ear?) and make us passengers in his delusions, but not quite “Elfmanish”, you see, Elfman plays with mature emotions. And yes, paradoxical the way is kind of inocent, -talking ´bout resources- Chirs Vrenna, in the other hand is most visceral play with unknown emotions -if you ´ve heard the A.M. ALice in Wonderland score, particulary the 4th track “Pandemonium” you ´ll agree with me that the style is most savage than any Elfman work.
So, in resume, yes, they both are quite unsane, but when one attack with all this preparation the other just attack with progressive-pasive-agresive…
“Enjoy the darkest toughts, redifine yourself in the shadows and then, you may understand why the world is an endless nightmare…”
