Comments on: Spike Jonze Says He Wrote The Entire ‘Wild Things’ Film To Arcade Fire’s Funeral https://staging2.theplaylist.net/spike-jonze-says-he-wrote-entire-wild-20091015/ Tue, 10 Nov 2020 18:01:06 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.7.2 By: Tyler https://staging2.theplaylist.net/spike-jonze-says-he-wrote-entire-wild-20091015/#comment-11685 Fri, 16 Oct 2009 07:25:29 +0000 http://theplaylist.wpengine.com/?p=5890#comment-11685 "Neon Bible underwhelmed?" Please name a better follow-up to a debut album(a classic at that)……please? After only two albums a comment like "yeah, we're a bit over the Arcade Fire," shows you ridiculous level of your unwarrented level of musical pertention.

i.e. see praise for Alex Murdoch…..

Sure it's not a full album, but still… that's gotta be one proud elephant.

I'm curious to hear their Box score more than I am to see the picture.

I would say the AF would be embarrassed with their association with 'The Box' but their score sounds great.

I'm sure that movie will be a turd, but I bet they will remain unscathed because the work sounds so damn good.

So make that two songs of theirs used in trailers but still none in the actual movies themselves. Yet they scored The Box, ha.

If i were them i would have done the same.

Sigur Ros was the same, very strict rules about not licensing their songs, but then after Vanilla Sky they caved and practically anyone can get their songs now.

I think the song Rebellion (Lies) would be perfect in a film. Expect this to probably change though after the marketing for Wild Things.
