I've been seeing a lot of previews for this movie. It seems to be the next weird movie that all the emo kids are going to love. If your gonna see it what do you think about it?? How good is it going to be?

the story itself stood the test of time and is weird within it's self so it just really depends on how deep the go with the movie and how it is executed. i have a pretty good idea that they will go nowhere near the more intresting subliminal part of the story though.

and hopefully they manage to keep the intresting logic of the book also.

it will always be a better book than movie the same goes for a lot of books that have movie versions

1984, Dune, Either/Or
 
hmm...I thought it was that Goth's that love the whole Nightmare Before Christmas thing...doesn't matter.

What does matter is Tim Burton. He need to stop remaking my childhood. Planet of the Apes, Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory and now this.

I know that this film is technically not a remake, it's kind of a faux-sequel...being that this story doesn't come from any of Carroll's writings and yet is still a sequel.

Please stop it Mr. Burton, you're not good at this whole remake stuff...stop while you're still ahead.

I sort of agree on 1984, I really did enjoy that film....but Dune, your kidding me.

oh so it has nothing to do with the books Alice in wonderland or Alice Through the Looking-Glass.

so he is remaking a vague remake of a remake. that sucks

Yep. So it probably wont have Carroll's logic jokes.
 
It's Tim Burton, so I gurantee weirdness



My best friend (girl, and not emo at all), loved it
 
I'm prolly gonna see it soon. Not sure though. A movie now a days is like 12 dollars. I wanna know if it's going to be worth it.

+1 and amen to that.
 
It seems like gothic people just want something equally weird as them. Kinda like comfort food for fat people. xD
 
I feel as though I will need to prepare myself with good Tim Burton films before I see this so that when I am disappointed I can still fall back on excellence.

I think Ed Wood and The Corpse Bride will suffice.

how bout just read the original book cause that is the masterpeice and the movie is olny very loosley based on it
 
The movie was excellent, it definitely caught all i would expect from a Tim Burton film.

For all those nae sayers on this thread, go see it then comment, i thought it was excellent done, the story was good, the acting was great, and there was a lot of humor thrown in!

Definitely one to see.

I dont recall needing something as rotten as I am.

Anyhow, I'd watch this, I just heard it's awful >: From people I trust, by the way.
Or at least moderately.
 
If you're a fan of Tim Burton films, you will probably enjoy it.

Imagine that.

I saw it on Sunday with my wife, and we both enjoyed it pretty thoroughly. I didn't think it was fantastic, I thought it was a little short for it's potential (and they created a wonderful world, and a story with a lot of potential). Just wish there could've been a little more to it.

As a whole, it was good.
 
Going to see it today, I love Tim Burton's style simply because it seems so gothic and dark yet the ending can be warm and "fuzzy"
