This is continued from my previous journal titled "Just realized something about "ünderland"
Well folks, back to insite and rage about the newest dissapointment coming into my skull but hopefully a glimmer of hope of some-originality. Please ignore the whole Addams Family news and just read down.
Otherwise, let me give you a quote of what bothered yet interested me:
Burton is also one of those guys with about a million things on his plate, so anything could be next. There's his long-talked-about adaptation of the TV series "Dark Shadows," which many had thought would be next, for one. And in the stop-motion realm, there's the remake of his 1984 short film "Frankenweenie." Burton is also rumored for a villain-focused telling of the "Sleeping Beauty" villain in "Maleficent" and he's attached, along with "Wanted" director Timur Bekmambetov, to produce an adaptation of Seth Grahame-Smith's excellent new novel, "Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter."
Rage:What I said earlier about crying into my palms about a remake of Disney's Sleeping Beauty just got worse. Just like the stupid lesbian villain-sue origin story fiction and Broadway musical "Wicked", Burton is going to be taking another Disney classic and raping it by focusing on a interesting character but possibly have Jhonny Depp- er, I mean Helena Bohem Carter as the main role. Also, expect Deviant Art to state the characters in the film as "iconic" as Square Enix. I'll get to that at the end of my soap box.
Burton, please stop taking already written scripts and just original characters like you used to. Does "Stainboy" ring any ears? Batman might be a good Tim Burton movie but it isn't a good Batman movie. Not even that Cartoon Network wants to admit that... Strange having such a violent movie on a kids station but then again, I'm not the same idiots that brought my children into the theaters to see Hayao Miyazaki's "Princess Mononoke" on the impression that every cartoon is by Disney.
Despite the onslaught of already filmed reboots by the hack-master, one glimmer of hope is "Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter". Seeming that this is a good chance that I'll be actually raising my hands into the air and say "Hallelujah, thank you god for beating him with a 'inspiration stick'", and actually laugh through it like I did with Mars Attacks. This might be the live action equivalent of "The Amazing Screw On head"(Please check Google video if you haven't seen it yet, see it now!). Seeming that Burton has teamed up with the director before on 9, this might look good for the better. The reason I like Acker's 9 in both short and film is that both Acker and Burton was due to expanding what the original had but not being in your face about it. That where "Charlie and the Fudgepacker factory" and "Joan of Ark in Underland" went wrong.
I'll be going all day about it if I wanted to talk about "Penumbra Shadows" and "Franken-reboot". Only thing I'll give credit is that Frankenwienie might be stop motion animated. Thus, my hope for it is slightly improved.Stop motion will mean effort on Burton and it's actually been a dream of mine to direct a stop motion version of "the Scarecrow of Romoney Marsh". Different is that it's like Dracula, each version is different and is public domain. The only problem is that Disney is releasing comics of the scarecrow in Disney Adventures magazine which might mean a possible movie by Jerry Bruckhiemer in the future except that it might be once again made in live action to my chagrin. What made me chose the medium for the film, if I do make it, is that I saw the film "the Perry-Wig" maker on Atom films(before the company raper Viacom took it over and removed the beautiful artistic concepts for comic drivel). The short was very beautiful in my opinion, and you can check it out on Youtube to see what I'm referring to.
