ParticipantElfman’s name isn’t on the credits of the tv spots. Looks like he isn’t involved anymore.

ParticipantNo.
I think Big Eyes could have had a better score but it’s the outlier. Dark Shadows was a good score, Frankenweenie is pretty great I think. It’s certainly a better score than Corpse Bride IMO. And Alice is one of his best ever scores with one of his best themes.
I think Elfman, along with Desplat and Thomas Newman probably, have the best careers in Hollywood. He can do an erotic romance, indie drama, superhero blockbuster, fantasy adventure and period drama in one year. He clearly has no intention of being just the ‘fantasy guy.’
Sure he has two quirky fantasy movies next year, but he also has a renaissance drama and and violin concerto.

ParticipantTwo Fifty Shades sequels will be shooting back-to-back early next year and will be directed by James Foley. I’d love to hear more from Elfman in this franchise, it’s my favourite of his 2015 output.

ParticipantSacha Gervasi (Hitchock) and James Ponsoldt (The End of the Tour) but have thrillers coming out next year. I wonder if either is the small film Danny says he might score.
On a side note, I just read an interview with Paul Haggis and he mentioned how he really wanted Danny to score ‘Third Person’ but had to use a European composer.

ParticipantI don’t care for Vinyl but I’m kind of going to need that…

ParticipantThe first track plays over a (pretty wonderful) animated end title sequence. If that cue sounds too hectic to you, it’s because Elfman catches every single thing in the sequence.

Participant‘Right now I am also involved in various degrees with the David O. Russell film called Joy.’

ParticipantCritics seem to be digging the score and the movie.
One described Elfman’s music as ‘subtle’ though. Erm…

ParticipantI love almost everything he does but I’m really loving this one.
This is Danny unleashed. It’s like a tongue-in-cheek Nightbreed.
Off to play the opening track a dozen more times.

Samples. Sounds really fun!

ParticipantI think this has been the plan for a while. I thought it was odd he was on Alice before Miss Peregrine, especially considering how those CG movies only come together at the last minute, so this makes sense.

ParticipantI love the source material and agree the movie looks pretty crap, but the movie has been screening for months now and responses from critics have been unanimously positive. And not in a ‘it actually doesn’t suck’ way either.

ParticipantThanks for that, I was gonna hold out for a while tbh.

ParticipantThis makes a DVD/Blu-Ray release likely right?

ParticipantI think this sounds really different for Danny. I can hear Silver Linings Playbook and Promised Land in it but it sounds different to both. Very electronic, quite minimalist.
Tulip Fever, the movie, doesn’t have a release date yet. I’d guess it’ll get one soon.

ParticipantI’m guessing this is a ‘To Die For’ situation. 20 minutes or so of score and a lot of songs.
Which is great, I wish Silver Linings Playbook got this treatment.
