Un homme du 'Grand Magic Circus' .  Gotta be a typo on the credits? --Stacey Doljack Borsody 23:43, 23 May 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Baldwin Hills and Crenshaw are blocks from each other, both part of South Central L.A.. They aren't "entirely different areas", but are pretty much the same place. Why Danny's article says one and Richard's says another is probably a source issue. It's not really important. I'm curious, however, why both mention the "inner city" or "racially mixed" aspect. I even removed it once, and Richard himself appears to have added it back in. Is this for street cred? That seems odd because Baldwin Hills is actually a quite wealthy area, regardless of being largely African American. I know you read this page Richard, so clue us in! :) GreenGlass(talk) 04:45, 25 December 2009 (UTC)

text: Yeah, I agree with this. It's like saying "Oscar-winning TV writer"; it just doesn't quite work, y'know?This Dizzy is Darker. 05:29, 4 November 2007 (UTC)

text: By all means be bold and work them into the article. I'm pleased to see that there are sources, and it would be good to get them in while folks are paying attention. --Nuujinn (talk) 21:27, 6 July 2010 (UTC)

text: It is odd that Marie is currently not even mentioned in this article. Especially considering Richard Elfman has always credited her as being a big part of making Forbidden Zone happen.

message: Why do the articles on Danny and Richard list entirely different area of LA where they gre up? They are close to the same age, so growing up would be considered during the same time frame.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.153.45.49 (talk) 14:36, 13 October 2007 (UTC)

message: Probably not THAT important - or perhaps it is , as I don't know her personally - but Richard's first wifes' name is Marie Pascale Kling. ( Odd as he may be , pretty sure he didn't go full on inbreeding. ) 75.104.174.119 (talk) 18:45, 7 February 2017 (UTC)

thread_title:  Spousal Trivialitium 

message: The Elfman brothers father was "Milton Elfman". ( Specifically noted by Richard Elfman on the commentary track for "Forbidden Zone". Milton was one of the demons in that film.). Just so's no-one thinks they was raised by a single mom! 75.106.219.197 (talk) 18:52, 29 April 2021 (UTC)
thread_title:  Father Wherefor Art Thou? 

message: Currently that’s what the filmography section claims. It may have been a projected date at some point, there have been many over the last ten years, but, so far, all that has been seen is the Princess Polly song, story boards, and a quickly cobbled together trailer / investors come on reel. Soooo…unless Mr.Elfman is also, secretly, wouldn’t put it past him, creating a time machine … the date for FZ2, at best, should be TBA. 75.107.41.198 (talk) 08:14, 3 June 2023 (UTC)
