LMAO!!
I’ve visited the Spider-Man boards over at Sony and there are a few people that said [and still say] the music from the trailer [that “Lacrimosa” thing] should’ve been Spider-Man’s theme.
Now I’m really hoping they use that for the S-M 3 trailer to hear that same people say that Elfman’s music sucks and that that should be the kind of music for the film.

Are you talking about Oscars?
I’m convinced Danny is getting nominated this year for one of those two projects.
I think that the fact that he was nominated by such a subdued [but powerful] score like Big Fish, and he was the ONLY nomination the film got is a sign that the snobbish music branch was finally embracing him.
OMG, can you imagine if one of the Corpse Bride songs is nominated for an Oscar and Danny gets to sing it on stage?

Seriously, I don’t want to be a dick like Katie said but that post seriously made me fall off my chair.
Danny conducting like a madman!!
Danny laughing like a lunatic!!
Danny playing the joker and trashing a museum to prince songs!!
Danny acting like Jack Nicholson!!ROLFMAO indeed.
I’m getting all kinds of images in my mind right now of how that conversation would turn out.
One of you guys should do this very same thing with the Doc Ock scene in the hospital.
I do think the scene works better without music, but Doc Ock is Born is one of my favorite tracks from the album.
I’ve been watching that over and over again, and no matter how many times I see it, that swinging scene at the beginning of the clip makes my jaw drop every single time. And it’s ALL because of Danny’s music.
Those descending/ascending 4 notes sound so big, so heroic. Watch that muted and it’s amounts to nothing.
I swear to god, if that part had been replaced with music from another composer or rehashed stuff from the first film, I personally would hunt down and slay Sam Raimi myself.
I think it’s almost mandatory.
What composers working today don’t live there?
Ennio Morricone? Alexandre Desplat [LOVE him]?
That was awesome, thanks, Ryan!
And yes, that sequence was supposed to be much longer. I forget during which part of “Making the Amazing” it was shown, but you can see a scene of Spidey and Doc Ock fighting inside an office or an apartment and you can see a woman that seems to be a secretery looking in horror from a corner. I assume that as they fell off the clocktower, they were supposed to get inside that place.
Quote:Hem….does it really matter ?No, but what DOES matter is the fact that Horner has dissed Elfman, so we must march united to his studio with pitchforks in hand and ask for his head
Oh, I forgot about this other pearl:
“I won’t take on too many films, let them overlap, do two at the same time, have to turn to arrangers and just churn it out by the yard, or start a music composing franchise with ‘proteges’ like several unnamed big shots are doing right now. With salaries hovering near the half-million mark and with the ability to spend several weeks writing a theme or two and having a team of arrangers do the work, it’s easy to see where the temptation leads.”
Media Ventures, anyone?
Oh my freaking god!
That’s absolutely amazing, thanks!
How the hell did you manage to extract the music without the dialogue?
Hey, I just remembered that the entire “Building on Fire” cue from the first film which was unreleased too, is in the “Rogue Gallery” of Disk 2 of the first film’s DVD.
Can anyone get that too?
I wonder if the person responsible for the horrendous cut-and-paste work with bits from the first score is the editor Bob Murawski, as [like we see during the “Editing” section of Making the Amazing] he was the one with the idea to replace Danny’s “Happy Montage” with the Raindrops song.
Maybe that single decision was what opened the floodgates for the rest of the changes.
Again, great work, D-Bo!
Where is that “menu3” from? I don’t recognize it and I can’t think of where it would fit in the film.
“You people do realize that he never reads this board right? And hey, someone had to say it. “
Says who?
His brother has read this website in the past, and I’m sure as hell he’s told him about it.
Oh my goodness, D-Bo. That is transition is absolutely flawless and so beautiful.
I just wonder what kind of crack those “music editors” were smoking when they decided to track music from the first film and replace that during the close-up swinging part.
Thanks a lot for both pieces. Great work!
From the article he gave the french magazine Cinefonia:
“About Spider-Man 3, Elfman says “Why not? But the conditions will have to be very clear this time.”
But I remember someone posted a couple of months ago an interview he gave to some french magazine and when asked if he would score another SM film, he said “Why not?” or something like that.
Like Spider-Fan, I really hope he changes his mind as he has plenty of time to do so.
