I wonder if he'll reference the TV theme.The TV show theme is better than anything Elfman has done since.Elfman didn't reference the "Dark Shadows" TV theme in the 2012 film, so I doubt the Goosebumps TV show theme will pop up here. (Unless Rob Letterman wants him to.) But Goosebumps isn't exactly an adaptation of the series either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scallenger 483 Posted October 19, 2015 Share Posted October 19, 2015 Saw Goosebumps today and really enjoyed Elfman's score for it. Can't wait to check it out apart from the film. The film itself was also pretty fun. Not scary in the slightest, but I didn't expect it to be. Just a fun bit of escapism.Note: Looking at the track list, the soundtrack release appears to be way out of film order. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Incanus 5,714 Posted October 19, 2015 Share Posted October 19, 2015 What a strange decision. Are these any substantial pieces among the bonus tracks that should absolutely be in the main programme? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scallenger 483 Posted October 19, 2015 Share Posted October 19, 2015 Regardless, it is really strange. Even stranger is that the digital download and CD versions appear to be identical, so why make them bonus tracks? I hope eventually someone will be familiar enough with the film to get this in the right order. It WILL bug me lol.I think perhaps Elfman decided to order it the way he did to present both his preferred album sequence of tracks he liked, then for the sake of his fans he threw in most of the rest of the score afterward (just like how most of his expanded scores were done in that big Elfman/Burton set). I guess working on the Elfman/Burton set gave him this strange mentality to do that on a regular release. A sort of "best of both worlds" scenario.

Thor 7,504 Posted October 19, 2015 Share Posted October 19, 2015 Absolutely NOT strange at all!This seems to be the perfect compromise solution -- the album program (designed by the composer himself) for people like me, and then the rest of the music in bonus tracks for people obsessed about C&C. They can then program these tracks with the others to make their C&C program (hopefully, the liner notes provide the sequence -- otherwise they can just use the film or wait for someone online to post the film sequence, which always seems to happen).I support this wholeheartedly. When I get this, I will only import the album program to iTunes and let the remaining tracks remain in the album's folder on the hard drive.

scallenger 483 Posted October 20, 2015 Share Posted October 20, 2015 I can see why for the album he switched the music around for the credits. The end credits montage music definitely gives off a big impression for what is to come in the album VS the more low-key nature of the opening credits. The film takes a slow-burn approach before all hell breaks loose, so the exciting music of course doesn't happen until the books are opened.

Jay 37,363 Posted December 22, 2015 Author Share Posted December 22, 2015 According to this interview with Danny Elfman, he is NOT scoring Tim Burton's new film So you’ve got a big year coming up. Goosebumps, which obviously is already done, the new Tim Burton film- I’m not doing that [Mrs Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children]. Well, our research is obviously terrible. It’s probably unknown, but no. Still coming up this year, Tulip Fever will follow Goosebumps. http://www.classicfm.com/composers/elfman/news/scary-music-guide/ Wow!

Matt C 454 Posted January 30, 2016 Share Posted January 30, 2016 According to Film Music Reporter, composers Matthew Margeson and Mike Higham are scoring Burton's Miss Peregrine's Home For Peculiar Children. http://filmmusicreporter.com/2016/01/29/matthew-margeson-mike-higham-scoring-tim-burtons-miss-peregrines-home-for-peculiar-children/ The article states that the score will be recorded in London in a few weeks, so perhaps that interferes with Elfman's sessions on Alice Through the Looking Glass?
