I think that Danny Elfman will probably end up scoring the film, just because of the quad that he, Depp, Bonham-Cart and Burton usually make up when a film is being made. Elfman is usually Burton's go-to guy for music. But, I think it would do a great disservice, not to mention piss off many fans, if Elfman did not use the influence of Cobert's music underlaid on his new compositions. He shouldn't change the original theme--that's as timeless a piece of music as any I've heard--but if you own the DS Music Collection, you know well that there are many different ways that the theme can be played, especially beyond the four or five samples in the music collection. It would be a nice nod to the fans if Elfman created his own compositions, but for "true" fans of DS like us, we could pick out some of the original notes or something.
