Talk:Elliot Goldenthal

Early life and education
Is it odd that we say Elliot's mother is 'Irish Catholic', then later that '[b]oth pairs of ... grandparents emigrated ... from ... Romania'? I checked out the footnote for this fact and couldn't gather anything from the (Google translated) text -- the WebArchive may be incomplete. Think we can go out on a limb and say his paternal grandparents are from Romania?

Untitled
Please forgive me, I haven't edited a talk page before. I believe it is incorrect to mention Jerry Goldsmith as Goldenthal's contemporary, because the first was born in 1929 and the latter in 1954! RichardKleiner
 * How so? doesnt contemporary mean that whilst Jerry Goldsmith was alive and making music for film that Elliot Goldenthal was also doing the same thing, ergo contemporary...Terrasidius (talk) 17:31, 19 February 2008 (UTC)

PHEW!
Ok i spent most of my day adding to Elliot's page, ive cleaned up his page a bit to make it more presentable and have created pages for his non-film score work aswell exampli gratia 'Othello' et al. Is there some kind of wiki badge of recognition for dedication to like an artist or something?! :D will continue creating new pages for his other non-film stuff later, im going to bed soon! —Preceding unsigned comment added by Terrasidius (talk • contribs) 04:44, August 26, 2007 (UTC)

Done more
Ive been editing this page and (mostly) the individual score pages for a wee while now and their coming along! :) Terrasidius (talk) 02:59, 22 February 2008 (UTC)

New Section
Will be adding a new section under the Bio section detailing his style and influences further quite soon (in my spare time in the next month or so, hopefully), for the benefit of readers, hopefully making it good enough to be "Good Article"! :D. Terrasidius (talk) 21:16, 8 April 2008 (UTC)
 * UPDATE on this particular point, I will be doing this soon; I have been working hard on FSOL related pages but I am pretty much finished with this until new releases come out. Have not done anything really substantial with Elliot related pages for a while, just small bits here and there and keeping an eye on it obviously, but now I will type up a draft of the above mentioned section soon and enhance the article with it asap. :) ΤΕΡΡΑΣΙΔΙΩΣ (Ταλκ ) 19:24, 11 September 2008 (UTC)

"Batman Film Series..." Navbox
Really I dont think its appropriate to have that navbox there, its Goldenthals main page and his navbox should take "centre stage" as it were, he only composed one (technically) batman score! i removed it once before and provided an explination (the same one as im providing now) when the box was being considered for deletion (i voted to keep it, because its comprehensive)! I kept it in the Batman Forever Score page however because its related to batman for goodness sake...

I will remove it and point to this rationalé, please feel free to comment. ΤΕΡΡΑΣΙΔΙΩΣ (Ταλκ ) 22:44, 11 April 2008 (UTC)

New section UPDATE again...
Just created the new "Style" section and will expand on this as much as poss. got a whole bunch of good refs too. Will try and beef up the page as a whole over the next wee while. ΤΕΡΡΑΣΙΔΙΩΣ (Ταλκ ) 01:49, 25 September 2008 (UTC)

Influence on others?
I've read some articles which mention Don Davis' style for the Matrix Trilogy was inspired in part by Elliot Goldenthal's atonal brass. Should we mention that? --Surten (talk) 06:27, 25 January 2009 (UTC)Surten

Composer project review
I've reviewed this article as part of the Composers project review of its B-class articles. This article is actually a decent living-composer bio; I take some issue with the sources, and some faulty fact checking. The details of my review are on the comments page; questions and comments should be left here or on my talk page.  Magic ♪piano 15:44, 11 February 2009 (UTC)

This article reads too much like an advertisement to me. No real criticism is noted although I came across one entitled "Death by Composer" panning a ballet score. I will try to add it this week. Lmlmss44 (talk) 04:08, 16 October 2018 (UTC)
