The anticipation is killing me

Johnny Depp as The Mad Hatter, Helena Bonham Carter as The Red Queen, and Anne Hathaway as The White Queen

Brett and I are HUGE Tim Burton fans. That should be pretty easy to figure out based on what we dressed up as for Halloween last year. So many of his movies are on our favorites list, and we could watch them over, and over, and over. Edward Scissorhands, Big Fish, Beetle Juice, Sleepy Hollow, The Nightmare Before Christmas, and Sweeney Todd are some of the greatest movies ever, in our opinion.

I love the way that he can take any ordinary thing, and turn it into something totally eccentric. His creativity is endless, and I love how quirky all of the characters in his films are. You can tell just by watching one of his movies that he is involved. He has such a unique style, that makes his films really stand out above the rest. He is brilliant.

Yesterday I found out that one of the projects that he is currently working on is a non animated version of the Disney classic, Alice in Wonderland. I can't wait for this to come out in Theaters! I am ecstatic. Just look at those costumes! Johnny Depp is almost unrecognizable as the Mad Hatter. The whole story is crazy as it is, so I am sure that the Burton version will be as far over the top as humanly possible.

Do you have a favorite Tim Burton Movie?

  1. Big Fish, for sure. That movie was so strange but so awesome. I can't wait for Alice in Wonderland.
