Do you really want to get rid of a disc signed by Danny Elfman which is bound to a limited edition? It doesn't seem a very wise intention. As soon as I receive mine I will put it in a glass case, even though I already have almost all of the track list.
Some people aren't really into collecting trophies. I can certainly understand the lack of enthusiasm for this disc if the music is all duplicated in the boxset. Some people see it as a needless redundancy. Mine hasn't arrived yet but I'm not sure at this point if it's something I'm going to want to keep (autographs have little meaning to me unless I've met the person signing and physically been at the scene while that person signed something for me).
If you need any help taking it off your hands send me a note!!

How many do you need? [/end quote]
One would be nice. I might then go out and buy the set.
Sounds like there's plenty of interest, so I just threw it up on Ebay. As stated, I really think it was a nice move for them to send this out, but it sounds like there are plenty of hardcore collectors out there who'd rather have this. I collect film music for the music, not the packaging or the autographs and while I know this would add value to my Music Box I'm not buying it to buy a collectible that I intend to resell. I don't keep any of my CD jewel cases, I'm just not into that sort of thing, so I'd be very happy to see this go to someone who REALLY wants it (and happy to be able to pay a few bills too...). I know this isn't the proper place to post it, so if you're interested head on over to the buy/sell/trade section of the board for the Ebay link.
Hey like I said I missed out so I will be in the hunt for one of these. If someone doesn't feel like they need it, I will be ecstatic to obtain one.
Of course, this is probably gonna bother the people who subscribe to the whole "well you didn't buy it on the website so you don't deserve it!" crap but oh well.
Looks like we can expect all the discs remastered and available singly soon, or in standard boxed sets, sans zoetrope. Their free gift is probably going to serve double duty as a cut-price sampler, maybe with photos of the new full-length CD's covers etc. They won't have gone to this trouble for nothing more than some muted Christmas cheer.

Its my opinion that your posts on this particular subject are repetitive, patronizing and mildly rude. But thanks for rescinding the part about my being a troll :-P

Do you have any concrete proof of this? Or is this more inane speculation from the master of it in the Elfman box threads?

Disappointing. That's stuff that's already In the Box not to mention we got that on their original albums. (The Main titles aand end credits at least.) I've done that b4 where I listen to Elfman's main titles for the Burton films for fun. This ain't nothing special except for the autograph. IMO,there should've been music that they couldn't fit on some of the albums. Like POTA, for example. I remember Elfman said he wrote music for the war scene and Burton liked the " Ape suite #2 " (which was originally written for the album, b/c the music wasn't finished yet for the movie) better and played that with the scene instead. I'd ve liked to hear his original version of that scene and other stuff they couldn't fit on some of the albums. I guess we're never going to hear Elfman hum the Batman theme on tape recorder in the bathroom of an airplane. Oh well. At least the autograph will be worth it.
Oh yeah I also notice they're using the original album edits of Sleepy Hollow and Big Fish main title. Instead of using the complete Main Title. That doesn't make sense. When I hear main titles I'd like to hear it in it's entirety. Not an edited version. (that really ticked me off about the Spider-man score album b/c the song album had the complete main title, but the scvore album didn't) They could've at least got that right. That's proof that this was really released for the autograph which was fine but if the autograph was the only thing special about the bonus disc . Then they could've had Elfman signed the certifcates or the book or the dvd. Sorry about this rant and whining. I'm still excited for Elfman's autograph and the box ,dvd, and book itself.
