It’s been delayed till September.

I read the script for this and thought it was wonderful, far less enthused with the trailer though.

So apparently Danny didn’t write Bliss, my favorite track?

‘In addition to his work for Harry, he has written additional music for Danny Elfman on films including AMERICAN HUSTLE, BIG EYES & FIFTY SHADES OF GREY (including the choral piece BLISS) and Hans Zimmer & Rupert Gregson-Williams on WINTER’S TALE.’

I really don’t like this sort of thing. Buckley should have gotten credit for the track instead of a message on a site only a handful of people would even see.

July 31st release date.

This is Danny’s year right? Giacchino and Newman are also really prolific this year but Danny’s got everybody beat with the variety of his projects. Erotic romance, superhero epic, horror/thriller, indie drama and a period romance.

[ddddeeee]

I’d also love ‘The Grand Finale’ without the choir as used in the other trailer.

[ddddeeee]

Not very much. On the top of my head the logo music, short cue during the show and tell, the long shot leading to Edward in the bathroom with the walls all cut, a bit more suburbs music, a short cue with Edward looking sad while cutting a bush (I think) and then the talk show cue and the cue at the mall that were included in the Elfman/Burton box. I think there might be a little extra in the fight at the end but I can’t quite remember.

Interesting that Elfman has never shared ‘Music By’ credit before but now we have this and ‘Before I Wake’ opening within a week of each other.

[ddddeeee]

Danny gets a full composing credit alongside Tyler now.

[ddddeeee]

CD delayed by two weeks. Hopefully to add some Danny…

[ddddeeee]

It’s also the love theme from Hitchcock.

[ddddeeee]

I wonder if the Midnight Run release lalaland alluded to ages ago is still going ahead…

[ddddeeee]

The frustrating thing is that we’ll probably be lucky to get any Elfman on an album release.

[ddddeeee]

That’d be an awkward phone call. ‘Hey Alan! You know how we didn’t ask you to score Avengers 2? Well we’ve run into some trouble and…’

Elfman’s regular music editor posted this on Facebook a week ago. Has to be AoU surely?

Just finished one of the most intense & quick projects of my entire career. I was music editing – about an hour of music composed, recorded, mixed, conformed to new pix and delivered in 24 grueling days! I think I’ve earned a nap

[ddddeeee]

Now called Before I Wake and here’s the trailer.

”I contributed music towards the new Avengers movie. I took part of Alan Silvestri’s theme, the original theme, which I really liked, and I pulled it into a new theme, which became sort of a hybrid.’

[ddddeeee]

Danny used Silvestri’s theme.

The CD from Hollywood Records on Amazon.com lists ‘Various Artists’. Hopefully most (all!) of what Danny wrote makes the CD. I’m not very interested in Tyler’s work.

[ddddeeee]

I’m sure it would have a great score, the animated classic is largely a silent movie and these movies tend to have wonderful music regardless of quality. I’m listening to Cinderella and it’s wonderful, though apparently the movie is actually really good too.

But I was kind of hoping Burton would stay away from the bigger movies, at least for a while.

[ddddeeee]

Student life!

[ddddeeee]

I’m not too great with the more technical stuff but I’m always on top of news and would be happy to help in any way I can.

[ddddeeee]

I want Christopher Young (who has a working relationship with the director) for Dr Strange.

I don’t know. I think Whedon’s probably the only director with enough heft to get an Elfman score. Even Branagh couldn’t protect Doyle and his score, though mixed well, was cut all over the place (I still love that one though). I can’t really see an Elfman score surviving a MCU movie, unless it was directed by Whedon.

[ddddeeee]

Whedon’s a big Raimi fan so he’s probably an Elfman fan.

Either way, I find it odd that Brian Tyler, who churns out scores seemingly quicker than anyone these days, wouldn’t be doing any necessary rewrites. Plus at that Denver thing it was said that Danny was ‘saving’ a summer blockbuster. Sounds like there might have been trouble.

[ddddeeee]

Reubens said in the linear notes to Lalaland’s Big Top Pee Wee that he wants Elfman to score all the Pee Wee movies. So he’ll be asked at least.

[ddddeeee]

I’m superheroed out but The Avengers is as fun as a movie can be.

[ddddeeee]

There’s a track here.
