That article described them with "rosy white skin" their skin was orange... wasn't it?

*blinks*
bleh.
I agree with the Marilyn manson thing.
And...yeah

No interest in this movie. *hacks on it*

[meowth1982]

What the heck was wrong with the original? *clings to her copy of it* Gene Wilder was the best Willy Wonka and no one can ever change my mind about that ;-;

[fzun]

As much as I love Johnny Depp, I really think they should have left this movie alone. I think the original looks much better than this version :/

Willy Wonka...Willy Wonka...

I've been waiting for this movie for a long time. Big Tim Burton fan, big Johnny Depp fan. It seems like something to look into, even if you seem skeptical. Tim Burton's a genuis, and I think he could do a great job with this. Yay...*squeaks*

Willy Wonka...Willy Wonka...

[Sock]

I think that should be good - I'm definetly seeing it. The trailor makes it look really interesting

I liked both the book and the first movie, so I'm hoping this one will be good as well -crosses fingers-

Creepy! He looks like an old family friend O.O

That family friend is a seventy-something woman.

By the way, who is Christopher Lee in this movie? I can't figure it out. I WILL see just about anything with Lee in it.

Their skin is orange in the movie. I can't find the exact quote, but I'm fairly certain they don't have orange skin in the book, and so I think "rosy white skin" is right.

I'm looking foward to the movie. I love the book, and I'm interested in seeing how this turns outs. The teaser for it looks interesting and the song is oddly catchy.

By the way, who is Christopher Lee in this movie? I can't figure it out. I WILL see just about anything with Lee in it.

According to the IMDB, he's playing Willy Wonka's father.

Oh... kay then. Anyhoo, they had pure black skin in the book, but that was deemed racist. But I think orange skin is, um, racist against that one episode of Magic School Bus! XD

[Christopher]

According to the article I posted, as the movie was made in the 70s, the oompa loompas were supposed to be midget hippies XD

How do you end up with carrots from hippies?

Well said. Classics should be left classic.

This is not a remake of the first movie though. This is Tim Burton's vision of the book. It may end up following the book a lot closer than the first movie did. It shouldn't be a question of how it compares to the first movie. It should be a question of how it compares to the book. And it's hard to judge something from that short and fast of a trailer.
**grasping for words to explain herself** There should be no complaining about things that are different from the first movie, because this one has nothing to do with the first movie.

Exactly, Sapphers. This is a book.
And a movie.
There will be a LOTR musical in the near future.
That does not mean they are re-making the Peter Jackson movies, nor was PJ remaking the earlier LOTR movies.
They're seperate entities, these two movies-- being based off a book, Burton has every right to make a movie of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory (assuming he has, y'know, rights like PJ had to get from the Tolkien family- which I'm pretty dang sure he does.)

The exact point I've been trying to get through to people.
It isn't a remake it's a deifferent version.
I hope this version is a lot more like the book.
