The Amazing Spider-Man Composer for Spider-Man 4

well raimi wanted elfman to keep on temping tracks, then on one cue raimi wanted elfman refused to emulate one of chris young's cues.elfman finally said "YOU WANT CHRIS YOUNG? THEN GO GET CHRIS YOUNG!!". and raimi did. hence, the falling out,because of temp tracking and cue emulation,which as an unwanted bonus got us the no spider-man 3 score album.

ELFMAN: They wanted this one cue that was basically from Hellraiser and I
was like "I can't get any closer and I'm not going to imitate [Hellraiser
composer] Christopher Young. Go ******* hire Christopher Young." So they
hired Christopher Young to do a cue like Hellraiser and he couldn't get
close enough to Hellraiser so they ended up licensing the cue from
Hellraiser.
Well, that sucks. I really do hope Elfman comes back, though.

Just one other question: Did Elfman leave during the production of Spider-Man 3 or did he leave after Spider-Man 2? I read on IMDB that Elfman left because Raimi turned down some of his new scores for Spider-Man 2. Which explains why we got Christopher Young instead.

im not sure...but i think it was right after pre-production wrapped on spidey 2.im so bummed this happened.yes, it was 2 years ago..but still..dont get me wrong, what young composed was absolutley brilliant for S-M3,But it's of course on bootleg,and i hate boots.my collection will never be complete.

*sigh*
 
Meh, Young's score wasn't that great. Hell, even the credits music is different from the ebginning, that's what disapointed me the most. That music with the drum beats in the Marvel flipping part was different, it wasn't the same to me.

Elfman would of been so much better. I a great example of the balck suit theme would of been in Red Dragon which Elfman did do.
 
Hmm, I wonder if Elfman would actually do S-M4?

well elfman has had disputes with directors before and stated that [he would never work with them again],then went to score one of their films later on...but..for some odd reason i have a feeling he means it this time...:(

What if Sony offered him a great deal? I really want Elfman back! But if he doesn't come back, I'll settle for Young.

Im not sure of elfmans priorities,but im pretty sure that with a great deal from sony,and a serious apology from raimi,it might happen..but thats just my intake on it.
 
^^

that would be cool to have him back,then we could prob. get spider-man 3/4 : score albums
 
He's doing the Wolfman? Awesome!

Plus he's scoring TS.
 
Eh I hope Young doesn't return. The only score I felt was memorable was Symbiote Spidey's theme.
 
i wanna hear the 10+ themes that he composed that were dropped in favor of elfmans cues...
 
how great it would be to have hans zimmer. but he his only for batman, and i want it to stay that way. I would love to have elfman back though.
 
I wonder how Hans Zimmer would compose for Spider-Man 4. Imagine how great the themes would be.
 
i know. but he really just needs to focus on one superhero movie for now. His themes for batman are easily one of the best in movie history (for me :) )

I've heard Danny and Sam have locked horns and made up again a few times in the past...
 
They should really just bring elfman back. 3's music was still good, but not as good as the previous installments. But they shoudl definanlty keep the original soundtrack. That'd be like Batman 3 changing it's theme completely, the music also defines the character.
