pixie_twinkle 44 Posted August 11, 2009 Author Share Posted August 11, 2009 You can say that again! This has the potential to be huge box office, and Gilliam is getting the shaft from the Hollywood system yet again! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Morlock 9 Posted August 11, 2009 Share Posted August 11, 2009 They must have worked really hard to make that movie seem vaguely normal. Terrific trailer, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hitch 55 Posted August 12, 2009 Share Posted August 12, 2009 Looks amazing and judging by all the remarks from the top movie critics at the end of the trailer, it must be good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pixie_twinkle 44 Posted August 12, 2009 Author Share Posted August 12, 2009 Regardless of this being a Terry Gilliam film it has the potential to be huge. Heath Ledger! Like it or not, an enormous amount of people will want to see this film simply because he's become so loved over the last two years, and especially since his death (not ignoring the fact that some will come simply out of morbid curiosity). As for the circumstances surrounding Johnny Depp, Colin Farrell and Jude Law's involvement, that should generate much interest also. Add to the mix a captivatingly intriguing new trailer, and the fact that the general public is more in tune with dark fantasy films these days than they were 5 years ago (thank you Guillermo del Torro) I think this could perhaps be one of the biggest hits of the year, and almost certainly be Gilliam's biggest hit. I honestly think at this point it all boils down to the release strategy and marketing. Get that trailer out there! Show it on TV! Get it into theatres!

Wojo 2,442 Posted August 13, 2009 Share Posted August 13, 2009 IMDB credits Jeff Danna & Mychael DannaI adore their "The Blood Of Cu Chulainn." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pixie_twinkle 44 Posted August 13, 2009 Author Share Posted August 13, 2009 Jeff Danna & Mychael Danna did a great job on Gilliam's last film "Tideland". They even personally answered my e-mail when I asked them a few questions about the score. Nice blokes! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Koray Savas 2,095 Posted August 14, 2009 Share Posted August 14, 2009 Well I don't think I've heard much from Jeff Danna. I know he did Silent Hill, which was 100% not his music. I don't know why he got credit for cutting and pasting Akira Yamaoka's music from the games, especially since Yamaoka was a producer on the film.Mychael Danna is better.

crocodile 6,294 Posted August 14, 2009 Share Posted August 14, 2009 Mychael Danna is better.I don't know. The Gospel of John was very good. Great even. The kind of work that is uses a wide variey of instrumentation and yet doesn't go over the top (like the other Jesus score did, for example). I haven't heard anything else from Jeff, but this one was elegant and beautiful. I'm curious of what they did with Parnassus.Karol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nick Parker 3,017 Posted August 14, 2009 Share Posted August 14, 2009 Of all of the posts in this Thread, the one thing that compelled me to see the trailer was Marian's "AWESOME!". After seeing it, I think I agree. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
