I call it John Williams Complex.

Mega lol. He's such a hack.
And yeah, I can see where you could get that impression. Thing is Elfman lost a good deal of his hearing not so long ago, and he admitted he's unfortunately had to stick to formulaic writing methods in order to compose since he no longer has the benefit of hearing all the nuances that once made his music so epic.
His music for
Wanted was pretty damn nice and unique, even though the film itself gobbled big bags of cock. I have faith that he'll wow us again though, he's always managed to regain my admiration in times where it faltered. What I like about him is he's not content with just sitting back and taking on one project at a time to rake in the mud, he's still as wide-eyed as ever and loves to expand and create multiple things at once. Recently he's been writing music for a ballet.
Anyway weren't we talking about Gilliam?
