This is the first I have heard that Burton's movie is more of a sequel than an interpretation of the books. The visuals look great of course, but now I am concerned about the plot. I wonder what will be like the book and what plot lines will be added in. Either way, I can't wait to see it!
ReplyDeleteI must admit I'm not a huge Tim Burton fan but this movie oozes all sorts of awesome! He is a phenomenal artist there is no question about that.
