It's a nightmare.

[technocracygirl.livejournal.com]

Wow. Err.. yeah. It's going to be at least as trippy as the first one.

[jeditigger.livejournal.com]

Mmmmmmmmmmkay.

Well, it's going to be different, that's for sure. :)

[lithera.livejournal.com]

You think?

[lithera.livejournal.com]

Yeah. I have... no idea if this is going to be any good or not.

[lithera.livejournal.com]

Yeah. I'm.... I'm not sure.

[bastardchimp.livejournal.com]

yes...Yes I do.

[lithera.livejournal.com]

I'm still going to have to see it.

Depp is so...nyar. There's not really any words other than "wierd" and "androgynous" to describe him so far. I honestly don't know if I'll enjoy this or not. Of course, I wasn't all that fond of the first one. Although the first one made me look at the books in a much different light. I used to think Willy Wonka was nifty; now I see him as insane in a not very settling way.

There are a /lot/ of interesting messages in the book and in the movie.

See, I think he looks really weird and androgynous too but that isn't entirely a bad thing.

I've just recently gotten the original from my sister to watch with my kids. And Gene Wilder is ... weird in that show. And very strange, and he dosn't make any sense. I think this is a good, eery, Tim Burton-ey interpretation for that oddity. It'll take some getting used to.

And Depp looks like he's had something done to his teeth... ?

[lithera.livejournal.com]

It looks like he's smiling oddly. It pulls the skin of his face in strange ways.

[technocracygirl.livejournal.com]

It's not a bad thing, no, but it reminds me a lot of the first one, which I wouldn't list in my top ten movies any time soon.

[foxfyre.livejournal.com]

I would add 'cadaverous' to that list, which really contributes to the weird factor when we're talking about a man who runs a candy factory. ;)

From the look of the trailer, this will be creepier than the original movie. Which I like, since the books were definitely creepy and strange.

Deeply disturbing, but I'll still have to see it. I brings out the darker side of the book which I appreciate. I wasn't too fond of the Wilder version after I read the book since it was too happy and bright where the book was not.

[technocracygirl.livejournal.com]

He doesn't seem much thinner than Wilder was, though I could be wrong.

I think Wonka burns up a lot of calories through nervous energy. (Especially in the Great Glass Elevator, Wonka spends a lot of time running about, IIRC.)

fuck Tim Burton!!!

[stef2dope.livejournal.com]

Wow, it looks like once again Tim Burton is on a mission to ruin another classic movie by trying to make it better just by adding special effects and redoing the script. I'm going to stay away purely, because I can't see anyone but Gene Wilder in that part.

Re: fuck Tim Burton!!!

I think it looks interesting. I really do. I'm going to watch it. I love Johnny Depp.
