I don't care either way. If he comes back, cool. If not, eh.
 
I loved Young's Spiderman 3 score - it's a shame that it hasnt been released commerically.
 
I hope Raimi and Elfman can get back on the same page.
 
In my opinion...this is MY opinion :o.....I think 11 people have VERY bad taste :csad:
 
Is his score not sold anywhere? I mean I get the soundtrack inspired by B.S. but where is the Original Motion Picture Score?
 
I hated the music when we first see Spidey in the black suit so I say get someone else.
 
After watching SM3 just recently, I change my mind. Chris Young HAS to go. I don't know about you guys, but he was another aspect to SM3 that made it so goofy. Elfman made the Spidey movies stand out by ENHANCING the drama with his score, but Chris Young made the dramatic scenes feel very amaturish.

Just watch this scene from Elfman: Especially from 5:56 to the end...

Especially when Harry grabs MJ. It just feels to...practical. Elfman made the score unique and interesting. Bring Elfman back...
 
I liked Young's score a lot. I also liked Elfman's. I just don't feel that the score is as crucial as it was 20-30 years ago. Superman's score was iconic. Right along with Star Wars & Indiana Jones. You can't make a Star Wars or Indy flick without their long-established, definitive theme music. Nowadays it's just not as big a deal. When Burton left the Bat-films, he took Elfman with him. And it wasn't a really big deal when he did. The score for the Schumacher movies wasn't bad. There was no outcry for the return of Elfman's tunes. Nor did it happen when we saw The Incredible Hulk. It's just not make-or-break anymore, for any movie. I can't think of any film whose score ever just put me off. I don't think I've ever walked out of a theater saying, "The movie was alright, but that theme music was just horrible!" And I can't remember the last time I thought, "I got to get that score album!"
 
Chris young brought a nice flavor to the music, however, given the choice, I'd immediately side with Danny. He's far superior, and his themes are very majestic.
 
Bring Elfman back. The score in SM3 was lacking what Elfman had. It just felt like a fabrication for me.
 
I loved the Chris Young score - particularly his theme for Sandman, the birth of Sandman and his Symbiote theme.

Both dwarf anything Elfman created for the series...Elfman's Spider-man theme is mediocre at best and his music is SO similar from project to project.

At least John Williams and Howard Shore can come up with something truly unique for each different project they work on, which Elfman just cannot accomplish.
