Oh please, its Tim Burton, its not gonna be ruined, improved on yes, ruined no.

well aside from Tim Burton behind this thing.. u know how Hollywood's track record is with re-makes.. :|
im just afraid of that track record.. thats all.
 
Don't think of it as a remake. Think of it as another filming of the book, pretend the first film was never there. The orginal screenplay writer John August never saw the first film.
 
I've seen Disco Pigs. Thought it was ok :)
 
Tim Burton and Johnny Depp, excellent appart, perfect together, having said that I was a little worried about whether Depp would be right for the part. I had no doubt he could do it, but I felt like he was cast JUST because everyone wants to see a Burton/Depp film.

And when I saw the first pictures and this trailer I still wasn't convinced... until one part about half way through when you see Depp with this perfectly strained smile on his face. You can see everything that I imagined seeing when reading the book; that childlike impatience, the frustration of people who don't understand him, the annoyance of the greedy children, the discomfort at being around the adults he's tried to distance himself from. I read a lot in to books when I was a kid ;)

The way I look at it too... and if we all watch it we may even get a great glass elivator. I can't wait to see CGI Vicious Knids (did I get that right? been a while since I read it)
