You know, I saw that before and hoped it was just Photoshopped...

God, have mercy on your poor lost childhood favorite movies.

[Liberator]

Have they no shame?

I Normally like Johnny Depp, but it's not as if the old film has lost any of its charm, so why make another?

And the song?!?!?! Errrr..... no.

As was stated on the RN forums:
It looks like Charlie meets A Clockwork Orange

And the old one isn't even old either...

I got to hand it to Depp. Doesn't seem like he has any problems changing rolls from pirates to Willy Wanka.


Oh and it's directed by the dude who did the Nightmare Before Christmas so it can't be all bad.

yeah, but it was more whimsical, too.. that, johnny depp looks straight outta edward scissorhands or sleepy hollow.

[Night Hammer]

unless he pulls somthin like he did in pirates of the carribean, he was actually pretty funny in that

[Galemp]

I belive that Tim Burton is a genius and that from everything I've seen about this movie it will be spectacular.

Therefore I shall not comment on it in this thread.

Well, it's older than I am (it was released in '71), so it's pretty old, but still bloody good

let's face it folks, hollywood's loosing it's originality, and is remaking, or borrowing, to make "new" movies.
