Tim Burton's Corpse Bride
Before you even bother to question, yes, that title refers to Helena Bonham Carter. No, she's not dead, but she does play a corpse in Tim's new movie. Also not surprising in the slightest is Johnny Depp's involvement. I wonder if they both did this flick at the same time as that other one? All that's needed now is to complete the Burton family by having the music done by that guy who did the music for a lot of other stuff.
While it might sound like I'm sour about the whole thing, I do want to see Corpse Bride. I happen to love the style of animation used in Nightmare Before Christmas, and I'm glad it's coming back to the bleak morbid themes it was meant for after being spoiled utterly by that blasted Peach movie. This year is going to be a good one for cinephiles, I am thinking. ¶ 5:10 p.m.
