Since it seems that Walt Disney Records is going the download-only route for score albums (as shown with National Treasure 2 and Up), is it possible that there will be no CD release for Elfman’s Alice?
Nine: The Musical was supposed to come out last fall, but was delayed by the writer’s strike. Any Nostradamians wanna chime in?
I wanna know how a second sequel that had a LOT more development time than it’s predecessor (two years between Spidey 1 and 2, three years between 2 and 3) still feels like a rush job. It felt like three underdeveloped movies in one!
Had the interview continued, Elfman’s next comment would have been: “So, have fun doing ‘Ed Wood,’ asshole!”
To which Shore would have replied: “Yes, how was ‘Mars Attacks!,’ douche!”
As far as I know, the only composer to be replaced on a Pixar film is John Barry on “The Incredibles.” Mr. Barry left the project a year before its release, giving Michael Giacchino the opportunity to write a really kick-ass score.
Hellboy II, Wanted, and the amazing Standard Operating Procedure represent Elfman’s best film work since Sleepy Hollow and Planet of the Apes, in my opinion. It’s been a very good summer. And we still have Milk on the horizon!
Why’s everybody making such a big deal about Hellboy 2? Doesn’t everybody know that the album for the Dark Knight is coming out soon?
….just kiddin’
I believe I once read an article in which James Horner discussed that some of his earlier woodwind work had to be rearranged because he was writing stuff that was impossible for the players to perform (limited time for breathing).
Lo Duca will probably be called in when Young is unable to replicate the temp track to Mr. Raimi’s satisfaction.
Yazbek is a very talented lyricist. Here’s a sample of “All About Ruprecht” from Dirty Rotten Scoundrels:
With a little brother like this
You can’t help but have
A happy home.
With style upon grace
And a smile upon his face
And all that’s missing is a
chromosome!Considering that Burton’s recent efforts also include “Planet of the Apes,” “Big Fish,” “Charlie and the Chocolate Factory,” Monsterhead does have a legitimate argument, “Sweeney Todd” notwithstanding.
