I liked the idea of a more grown-up Wonderland than the Disney version, but this doesn't work for me at all. It should be beautiful but a little scary, while this is neither -- just grotesque and creepy. Not to mention it looks an awful lot like Nightmare Before Christmas. </p>libraryliz commented on 'Hrrrm.'tag:typepad.com,2003:6a00d8345169e469e20115713bf85b970c2009-07-24T18:11:58Z2009-07-24T18:11:58ZlibrarylizI really don't like the idea of this!

That said, I'd be into a Dark Shadows film - without Johnny Depp, though. As much as I get the whole 'Johnny & Tim loooove each other' thing, I feel like they both need to work separately for awhile. </p>tanita commented on 'Hrrrm.'tag:typepad.com,2003:6a00d8345169e469e201157229a022970b2009-07-23T19:24:25Z2009-07-23T19:24:25Ztanitahttp://tanitasdavis.comWhen I'm feeling blue about all of these novel-tie-in movies, I look at trailers for Pixar's Planet 51.

It's perfect: unbookrelated, cute, and Pixar-ish.</p>Leila commented on 'Hrrrm.'tag:typepad.com,2003:6a00d8345169e469e201157133df93970c2009-07-23T15:37:56Z2009-07-23T15:37:56ZLeilahttp://bookshelvesofdoom.blogs.comBrian, I think this is one of those instances (like Will Ferrell) in which you and I will end up...<p>Brian, I think this is one of those instances (like Will Ferrell) in which you and I will end up in opposite camps. Granted, I have less than two minutes to go on here, but I think it looks massively annoying. And like nothing new. (Part of my underwhelmedness is probably due to the fact that I'm so tired of Johnny Depp I could barf. So that should be factored in.)</p>
<p>But you <i>are</i> right about Alan Rickman -- he's so rad that he gets a free pass for life, so I won't hold the movie against him. And I'm sure that his Caterpillar will be awesome.</p>Brian F. commented on 'Hrrrm.'tag:typepad.com,2003:6a00d8345169e469e2011571335db9970c2009-07-23T13:38:38Z2009-07-23T13:38:38ZBrian F.http://assumecrashpositions.wordpress.comI commented on this and it vanished.

But I just wanted to add that I really hope Burton goes directly from this to DARK SHADOWS. I'll admit it: I'm pretty much Burton's bitch.</p>Monica Edinger commented on 'Hrrrm.'tag:typepad.com,2003:6a00d8345169e469e20115713358ef970c2009-07-23T13:35:29Z2009-07-23T13:35:30ZMonica Edingerhttp://medinger.wordpress.comAs with the Where the Wild Things Are movie, I am trying very, very, VERY hard to not be overly...<p>As with the Where the Wild Things Are movie, I am trying very, very, VERY hard to not be overly protective of beloved source material. That said, the narration for this trailer ... twee. </p>Brian F. commented on 'Hrrrm.'tag:typepad.com,2003:6a00d8345169e469e20115713356d9970c2009-07-23T13:34:02Z2009-07-23T13:34:03ZBrian F.http://assumecrashpositions.wordpress.comAre you kidding me?

<p>I am GIDDY! True, it wasn't as bleak as I imagined (like Sweeney Todd bleak) but I think it looks FAB. Can't Alan Rickman as the Caterpillar summon in you the same anticipation you feel for Clancy Brown in NIGHTMARE?</p>
