Charlie and the Chocolate Factory?
 
Is anyone else looking forward to this? I usually don't like remakes, but I can't wait to see this one for some reason. (Okay, probably because of Johnny Depp. ;) )

Here's the poster that just came out:

Johnny Depp (Who is a good actor), But this movie will never top the original with Gene Wilder...No chance!

I read that Tim Burton originally wanted Marilyn Manson to play Wonka. :shocked:

I agree. :nod:

Is this going to be a straight up remake, with the same score and everything? If so, I might see it. I love that song "There is no place I know to compare with your imagination..." and, every time I went shopping for broker tickets on GoldenTickets.com this past tour, I couldn't help it. I'd inevitably start humming "I've got a golden ticket! I've got a golden ticket! I've got a golden chance to make my way! And with a golden ticket it's a Golden Day!"

wow, strange choice! I think Johnny will be ok, but his eyes aren't as buggy, crazy, or light. To be fair, i don't think i like the movie as much as everyone else...Also i don't love johnny depp as much as everyone else...hmm, perhaps i shouldn't have responded... :lol: :laugh:

In no way could this one or the last one compare with the book. I remember when I saw the movie with Gene Wilder I was like "That's not what happened in the book!" I was very disappointed to say the least.

This one is supposed to be much more faithful to Dahl's book than the 1971 version, so we'll see. :shrug:

i still remember seeing the original in the theaters when i was 3 & a half, I bought the dvd the day it came out & have since watched it a jillion times, it was on cinemax this morning & my son was watching it while eating breakfast~ i do think johnny depp is a good choice, but mayb cuz that is cuz i think he is SUPER HOT! :nod: ~ tho this is a classic i think it'll b hard-pressed 2 live up 2 the originals awesomeness, the story, effect & hell the way u feel @ the end r gonna b hard 2 duplicate!!!~ it is 1 of the gr8 childhood movies that remains timeless in this age of computer generated movies 4 kids, me 4 one, will take willy wonka over any of them anyday of the week!!! :thumbsup: :wavey: :thumbsup: ~
