Hey Ryan,
Another member from “a while back” here…
First off, I fully agree with what has been said until now, so I won’t be repeating the same comments.
I do think that you could trim the website down to a minimalistic (in terms of theme and data) wordpress blog as (unfortunately) websites don’t rely on exhaustive content anymore but on instant interactions.
However, I do think a board is still pertinent as it is less intrusive and a more powerful tool than just a Facebook group. We are a very small community here but a durable one. We know our subject and are able to talk about more in-depth subjects than “I really love Tim Burton’s films because they are so different” or “What’s the track’s title of the Gremlins theme Elfman wrote” ? That’d be all over a Facebook group I’m sure. Even more geeky communities such as reddit have very poor knowledge in terms of film music, no to mention Elfman’s work.So my advice would be : keep this website as archive, go wordpress all the way, include a very small wordpress board plugin (something light and fitting our needs) and that’s it. From there, we could always build on top if needed as wordpress is such a malleable tool.
And finally : if you need help, don’t hesitate. I was toying with the idea to actually open an Elfman wordpress blog a few months earlier as I thought this one was shut down for good and thought I could fill the void. So, I’d be happy to help.
PS : if you could change my username to “DannyBiker” instead of “Danny Biker”, your soul will be blessed forever.
It is indeed one of his best work to date. 2011 was very light in terms of Elfman scores but this one is surely worth two or three scores all together !
Great ! Still needs some polish but you know that…quite excited to see what you came up with the website !
I need my daily Elfman info !
I like the fact that the board offers a clean look compared to some bloated php boards…but could we get a setup were we don’t have to click to read every single post ?
Thanks !
Someone pointed me to this :

Movie Studio anyone ?
That’s why it sounded so familiar !Can’t see the vid…regional restriction…so un-2011.
I like the “smaller” feel they intend to put into this. But we’ll see if it holds…
Yeah…forgot about the Month/Date format in English languages…silly me.
We’ll see but I can’t say I’m excited…I hope for another Wanted surprise…Yet, I heard that too. Don’t forget that Batman Returns was the first Dolby Digital film and I guess it needed to “sound great” which sometimes just end up to “sound loud”.
