Oh, I knew I should have not included that phrase. Hm, A John Williams Terminator score…sounds a bit “far-fetched”, but I am convinced that the man can write anything, now.
Indeed, I am more concerned with the quality that Terminator: Salvation’s score release will get. And I have a feeling that those sequels will come about… “if this film is successful”? This film will probably make more than the third Jaws film, and if that piece of garbage could get a sequel, so can this money-making machine (all applicable puns intended). And Danny Elfman would be the only reason I would not think of protesting those sequels when they inevitably surface…well, unless Steven Spielberg directs one.
I have been wondering that, as well. According to Scoring Sessions.com, the score was recorded at the beginning of April, and I am not referring to the April Fool’s Day joke.
Mm, not bad. You know, I am beginning to really like “Little Things”. I never really listened to many Oingo Boingo songs (though I do admit I sing along to “Gratitude” quite frequently), yet I just really get an “Oingo Boingo vibe” from the song, if that makes sense, which is pretty nice. I am surprised Danny Elfman can still sing well.
I prefer it when he uses it to accent his music in subtle ways that are not easily perceived as “electronic”, such as some of the material for Hellboy II: The Golden Army.
You may be laughing now, but just you wait until May…Danny Elfman really is one of the most versatile and unique composers ever.
Yes, I am referring to the film CD. I doubt the score for this game will receive a commercial release.
Well, I finally got the CD in the mail today. I did not really like the electronic stuff, but overall, I liked it. I was surprised, I thought I was going to have to listen to it for a week to appreciate it.
Descent Into Mystery, April Fool’s Day is not until Wednesday: you have no business making such an obvious and terrible joke like that right now, it is not funny.
What!? They are going to grind the Terminator series to dust even more!? I will accept the fourth one because of Danny Elfman, but that is it!
Well, I do think Hugh Jackman will make a nice Houdini…and judging from the Oscars, I would imagine that he is very enthusiastic about the part.
Descent Into Mystery, you assume that the deleted music, assuming that there will be missing music (I am not saying that there will not be any, but we cannot say for certain) will find its way on the album, which I am not sure is a safe assumption to make.
I am still having difficulty fathoming that some of you guys have followed Danny Elfman for more years than my existence, if that makes sense….
“We still got E.T. and Schindler’s List.”
To name a few….
And hopefully Danny Elfman, who seems to gain another director collaboration every Tuesday, will “latch onto” a franchise that does not stop at the second one, as far as he is concerned. He does not really have partnerships with “franchise” directors, though, does he?
That is pretty cool! The only sound card I ever got had Spock saying “Illogical”, and I do not even like Star Trek….
Oh man, I loved his Fable Theme so much. I cannot remember, did Russell Shaw do anything with the theme in either of the games?
Hm, the one I have includes only the Danny Elfman material…not that I am complaining. Upon listening to that, I noticed some weird (but welcome, in my opinion) album decisions they made.
For instance, the second Track “MJ’s New Life/Spidus Interruptus” also seems to contain “Not Back Yet” (by the way, I love the strings that begin that cue, and I was disappointed to learn that it was replaced with tracked Main Titles in the film). Hey wait, where does “Spidus Interruptus” go in the film, anyways? I wish the album had liner notes….
There also seems to be various micro-edits in Tracks such as “Armageddon/ A Really Big Web!”, “Doc Ock Is Born”, and “The Goblin Returns”. Nothing major, but there are some nice variations of Spider-Man’s Theme in the first example that was exempted from the album.
Man, am I in the mood to do a complete analysis of the first two Spider-Man scores….
