I’d bet ten dollars that “The Great Beyond Around The World” will be the ultra-racist version of “The Great Beyond” with offensive caricatures of various countries.
Was kind of hoping for more Menken songs, but I’m definitely interested.
Fuck, you were DAMN right.
Kind of surprised Menken had to bring in help to score the film.
Probably because he’s already busy scoring next year’s live action Beauty and the Beast film.
