Wizard of Oz.
The Wiz.
Tim Burton just about anything.
WILLY WONKA AND THE CHOCOLATE FACTORY (*shudder*)

Creepy.
No effing way.

The Wiz does freak me out a bit, I won't lie.

i want to see it, i love alice in wonderland, i know he'll do a good job but i agree everything he does is the same anymore.

I actually want to see this-the promo pics looked pretty fascinating in a creepy way. I always hated Alice in Wonderland and found it to be a really strange tale so I sort of like the idea of a bit of a 'deranged' take on it. Plus, Tim Burton's gothic style is pretty cool. Sleepy Hollow was a favorite of mine.

I can't say I'm the hugest Tim Burton fan, but I love Alice in Wonderland and this looks like it's going to be a cool movie!

Pretty!!

Cinfulgirl · 07-23-2009, 03:19 PM #34 (**permalink**)

I am soo going to watch this movie.
I know Johnny Depp is a great actor and he will make this movie rock,
and Tim Burton makes weird, but good movies.

The Teaser Trailer makes me want to watch it even more!

Im so excited! I love Tim Burton...his films are great. They are so dark and eerie and I like that.

MxAxC-_ATTACK · 07-26-2009, 03:23 AM #36 (**permalink**)

I am overly excited about this. I love Alice in Wonderland.

And its Disney... so honestly.. It can't be that creepy.

This new movie has more elements based out of the books (or so I hear)
So technically, its not a different take on it, its just taking some of the story out of the original books, which were much creepier than the Disney Animation back in 1951.

I am looking forward to it, but I was expecting something a bit more surreal. Don't stone me, but I am sick of Johnny Depp in these types of roles.

I liked Sweeny Todd, he was a perfect director for that
Edward scissor hands was original when it came out
But he Ruined Willy Wonka ... ,the new movie is CREEPY

The original was creepy too. But that's what I loved about it!

not a huge fan of helena bonham-carter though i must say.

Helena Bonham-Carter is Tim Burton's girlfriend. Once you realize that you see why she's almost all his films.

I'm going to see this because Johnny Depp can fart on film and I will be there to watch it.

yeah i hope they don't screw it up like they did charlie and the chocolate factory =/ but i'll give it a shot if anything for the visuals! i wanna see it in IMAX, should be cool

AlliSwan · 08-02-2009, 12:13 AM #47 (**permalink**)

I think this is ok to post here, it's a video of Natalie Tran from YouTube (she's hilarrrrrious, I totally heart her to death) and at about 1:30 there's video of the Alice in Wonderland set that they rebuilt for Comicon.

I guess I don't see Charlie & the Chocolate Factory as a remake of Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory, so I don't see it as ruining anything.

They are two different interpretations of the story versus remakes like the Thomas Crown Affair where there is an attempt to remain truer to the original interpretation.

I like both versions; I prefer the Burton version for artistic value and the original version for camp and sentimental reasons since I grew up with it.

________
I didn't realize it was taking place in a completely new timeframe until now:
The traditional tale has been freshened with a blast of girl power, courtesy of writer Linda Woolverton (Beauty and the Beast). Alice, 17, attends a party at a Victorian estate only to find she is about to be proposed to in front of hundreds of snooty society types. Off she runs, following a white rabbit into a hole and ending up in Wonderland, a place she visited 10 years before yet doesn't remember. (imdb.com)

I am excited to see this movie but I hate that they chosen that girl for the white queen? She should just stay in the princess diaries where she belongs. haha

I don't get why so may people don't like willy wonka, I love that movie but the ompa loompas should have been different.
