FINALLY! my friends and i have been talking about this for a year now! finally, we've got a date to mark on our calanders! ah!!! this looks so epic! XD
If you've ever read Charlie and the Chocolate Factory or Alice in Wonderland, you would know that they are suppose to be dark childrens stories. If anything, Burton is conveying the same emotion carried in the books. In doing so, hes honoring the original authors vision. Please don't take this response as me being a jerk. Just starting a healthy discussion. ;)
i did read the books as a child including the glass elevator and that's why i loved them so much. even still there are memorys attached to the original films as well. Gene Wilder (i think that's how you spell his name) played Willy in a way that although was kind of out there it never drew away from the story(movie) being about charlie. on the other hand you have depp who always becomes the center of the film. look at this new movie. the mad hatter wasn't a huge part of the original but its depp
The thing is that Depp sales tickets. So that's how they're going to market the film. Doesn't necessarily mean thats the way the actual film is going to be... or I least I hope it doesn't...
if you bother to read the actual books of things like charlie and the chocolate factory, alice in wonderland, and the wizard of oz, you will see that they are not childrens stories but actually very dark stories. alice in wonderland in particualr is filled with loads of philosophical takes on events that were happening at the time. it's was only disney-fied for kids, and money, Burton's doing the author a favour with this film, this is it's true nature.
im not sure wat i think of this yet. when i heard of it i really didn't know if it would be cool or creepy. i mean tim burton and alice in wonderland are a strange pair.
He wouldn't have to change much. The concept of a talking teddy bear with a friend with severe depression, one with ADHD, and one who is paranoid is kinda weird already. Almost creepy actually.
I guess.. And if he directed 'Hannah Montana', 'High School Musical' or 'Camp Rock' (Really, just about any Disney film) it would be 10 times creepier as if they weren't already.
When i heard tim burton was directing this i thought he was making a movie based off the game by American Mcgee (i think thats who made the game not 100% sure), it seemed more up his street because it was really twisted and gothic, but this just seems weird.
Hmm could be interesting, when i first heard this movie was going to be made I told my sister Johnny Depp would be an awsome mad hatter and there he is lol
Be careful, disney is out trying to take all these trailers down, I recorded it on my camera so luckily i'll still have something to watch when all these are gone. ANYWAY I PEED MY PANTS WHEN I FIRST SAW THE TRAILER OPEN ON THE INTERNET. i hope this doesnt get taken down, im going to watch it everday lol
Tim Burton clearly was made for recreating these amazing, fantastical worlds... and of course Johnny Depp was made to play the weirdest characters in them! =)
quoted from dlsited "it looks like it should've been called Johnny Depp in Carrot Top Land (with a stop off in Elijiah Wood-ville). I mean, it looks like the Mad Hatter is the true star of this CGI bukkake party. Alice who?" LMAO Very true..Needs more alice,well theres still more trailers to come,This one was pretty cool
I'll be completely honest now and say that when I first heard of the idea, I expected only the worst. I was afraid that Tim Burton would ruin one of my most beloved stories of all time, and that all of a sudden, teenagers would have the largest frenzy and immediately think AiW was the next 'it' thing. But this trailer, from what I've seen of the movie so far, actually isn't too bad. Of course, I still have millions of doubts in my mind, but I think this puts me at ease for the time to come.

I'm guessing that Danny Elfman does the music as usual? (refering to the Burton-Depp-Elfman dreamteam !! )

Intruiging.....being Burton, I hold high hopes that this film leans more towards the creepy, disturbing nature of the book. Looks good so far!
