OK so Danny didn’t win tonight (AR Rahman did), but there was a nice 2 Danny second reaction shot to Rahman’s second win. He was there with Bridget. Oh well! We’re used to this around here.
February 23, 2009 at 5:16 am #63460RCoxParticipantGiven that Zack Efron was presenting the award, I was rooting for Elfman to get it some other time.
February 23, 2009 at 5:50 am #63461D-BoParticipantDitto. *gag*
February 23, 2009 at 5:55 am #63462Nick ParkerParticipantI do not know, I would have loved for Danny to perform a song like Rahman did…. Bringing back Oingo Boingo, baby! Oh wait, I was not alive for Oingo Boingo….

Was the reaction shot a look of relief? Is there footage of it anywhere?
Oh wait, I was not alive for Oingo Boingo….
You weren’t alive in 1995?
February 23, 2009 at 7:49 am #63464Descent Into MysteryParticipantI love Elfman, obviously, but AR Rahman deserved the award.
February 23, 2009 at 9:29 am #63465TenderLumplingParticipantYeah?
February 23, 2009 at 7:54 pm #63468Ryan KeaveneyKeymasterThere was an Elfman reaction shot (top right corner in the split screen), and he looked quite happy for Rahman.
February 23, 2009 at 10:52 pm #63472gordonbluParticipantHe did. Then, during the song performances, he looked like he wanted to bolt.
February 23, 2009 at 11:13 pm #63473boingomusicParticipantYeah, I saw that… After the song, there was a big shot of him and you could see him applaude very seriously… He really seemed disappointed… They kind of play with him, like they do with Brad Pitt. The nominations come, but nothing really happens… It muss be depressing… I really thought this was the one, and he seemed like he believed in it too, for once… I was really susprised to see him there…!

Well, I was. but how many two-years-old knew what Oingo Boingo was?
February 24, 2009 at 3:14 am #63479elfboy91Participantall of em… they were huge!
lol.. i wish….
February 24, 2009 at 6:41 am #63482Nick ParkerParticipantI was watching Barney when they disbanded!

Hmm? I thought he looked happy for Rahman? In interviews, Danny says he doesn’t even care about getting oscars. He didn’t even go to the ceremonies when he was nominated for Big Fish.

Don’t feel left out. I never saw them in concert, either. That’s what the “reunion” shows are for.
February 25, 2009 at 6:35 am #63481Mr. DantzParticipantA guy of Elfman’s stature probably doesn’t give a shit about the Oscars. It’s insignificant in comparison to what he’s already accomplished! He probably just went as an excuse to get out of the house. The guy probably doesn’t get out much when he’s working constantly!
February 25, 2009 at 9:12 am #63489TenderLumplingParticipantHe probably just went as an excuse to get out of the house.
Guys, listen to the Elfman interviews. Danny completely debunks your thoughts on the matter. If you’re a big enough fan to post on a Danny Elfman message board, you should be listening to these great interviews.

Listen to Part two:
When Danny was asked about getting an oscar, he says, “I don’t give a fuck.” Also, he hates going to these big shows!
PS: I love you all.
February 25, 2009 at 11:17 am #63492Descent Into MysteryParticipantI don’t think Danny went for Big Fish cause he was the only nominee. In the case of Good Will Hunting, Men in Black, and Milk he went in support of the movie since it was nominated for several awards including Best Picture.
February 25, 2009 at 6:48 pm #63494Mr. DantzParticipantExactly! I remember him stating that, but couldn’t remember in which interview.
February 26, 2009 at 3:09 am #63505elfboy91ParticipantWell.. I liked the Oscars this year.. but then again I like Broadway shows…It was a little Broadway-ish … and I’m sure Elfman got a good look at his supposed star of his Houdini show… which I hope does well and actually hits Broadway theatres.
February 26, 2009 at 5:07 am #63509Nick ParkerParticipantOh, I am so excited for that. I hope it fares better than “Little Demons”…..
