Funny how he kept watching his watch during the Sundance Q&A and I thought that it wasn’t very polite as busy as he is. And then, when they were about to wrap it up, he looked one more time and said “we can have one more question if it’s possible”.
I’ll never doubt of you again Danny, I promise !
True for Oingo Boingo, I have mp3s from the early P2P days that I am pretty sure would be impossible to find today.
I can’t get over “The Tunnel Fight – Full Length” at 9:15. I’ve been obsessed with those five seconds, which…don’t seem to appear in the film !
It’s pretty much a Hellboy II situation : weak themes (or at least, not strongly recognizable ones), fantastic score. And in the comicbook genre, that’s a DOA case even among the film music fans because everybody wants a great theme to hum along.
But the way he works around his themes and writes the action cues is pretty darn impressive. It’s a really exhausting score to listen to as there is a lot going on, all the time.
As for the haters…mark my word, the Zimmer/JunkieXL scores will age terribly.
As I said earlier on FSM, the only thing louder and more vulgar than Zimmer/JXL’s music is their fans…
Danny Elfman AMA on /r/movies: Tuesday, November 21 at 12 PM PST from movies
So, what funny things could that piece of paper say…
Which one is it ? I gave it two/three listens but I didn’t take the time to associate the motifs with their character.
And Justice League United : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5KYHO2cHTBg
There’s a part of the theme that is really reminiscent of Silvestri’s Avengers Theme. Comics fans will get mad for this…New track, listen while it lasts : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9WH5nSA5YE4
That’s a bit more engaging…
It’s already gone.. 🙁
Edit : available here , https://www.flickeringmyth.com/2017/11/five-new-justice-league-clips-arrive-online-danny-elfmans-batman-theme-featured/FYI, Elfman’s AMA on reddit.com/r/movies will happen on the 20th.
I guess that the track is just a suite that won’t actually be used in the film or perhaps during the end credits. My main grip is that it lacks ambition in its structure, especially when you know what Elfman is capable of for the genre and in general. Sure, as I listened to it a few more times, it starts to unveils its qualities and merits but it is still not a very engaging experience.
If there’s a composer who likes to explore a theme in many variations during suites and titles sequences, it’s certainly Danny Elfman. But in Hero’s Theme, you get the picture after the first minute and it doesn’t evolve too much from there.
Also, the “27 tracks” soundtrack is coming out on November 10th actually : http://www.filmscoremonthly.com/board/posts.cfm?threadID=123683&forumID=1&archive=0
BTW, Elfman will be doing an AMA on reddit during or right after the release week-end. Prepare questions that will be ignored !
>> DCEU fans are mad…
Oh man, DCEU fans theorising about these movies like they’re Barry Lindon or Once upon a time in the West will always crack me up…
