Hi everyone, Bryan Here…
I’m not sure if this is quite the best news, but Tim Burton (‘Beetlejuice‘) will direct a live-action remake of ‘Dumbo‘ for Disney. If you’re unfamiliar with the story of ‘Dumbo‘, it follows a baby circus elephant who is bullied because of his giant ears, which give him special abilities. The original film came out in 1941.

Tim Burton’s Latest FIlm ‘Big Eyes’ Releases First Trailer!!!
Hey guys, Jana here,
When Tim Burton makes a new movie, it gets attention. Be it good, bad or ugly, people talk about it. The newest film to add to the cannon of Burton films is ‘Big Eyes‘. His latest live action film since 2012’s ‘Dark Shadows‘. A drama centered on the awakening of the painter Margaret Keane, her extravagant success in the 1950’s and the following legal problems she had with her husband. Why did she have legal problems with her husband, you ask? He claimed credit for her paintings in the 1960’s. Talk about a maladjusted marriage! Makes Ike and Tina Turner look like a model of marriage perfection.
Tim Burton Might Say ‘Yes’ To Directing ‘Beetlejuice 2’!!
Jana B., Here….
When you think of the collected works of Tim Burton, certain projects stand out. If you ask my daughter, she’ll point out Alice in Wonderland, my son will give props to, his favorite, The Nightmare Before Christmas. If you ask me, I’ll mention the Batman movies, Edward Scissorhands or Beetlejuice. There has been a lot of talk about Burton, Michael Keaton and Beetlejuice lately. In particular, whether or not Burton would like to film a sequel. He is already a producer of the proposed movie with David Geffen. I don’t blame Warner Brothers for giving this one to Burton to consider. How could you make a trip back to the universe of Beetlejuice without his directing? It would be like eating steak with plastic wrapped around your tongue…all of the fill of food, but none of the flavor. Come to think about it, that’s kind of like sex with a condom, too!

Tim Burton’s ‘Frankenweenie’ Remake Has A Poster and It Looks Familiar!!!
Hi, Bryan Here….
So, before Tim Burton was all Tim Burton and loved scissors and crooked trees, he made a short film called ‘Frankenweenie’. Now he is remaking his first film. I have a love/hate relationship with Tim Burton, but I am curious to see this. Very few directors go back to the original 1st movies and remake them. But now the film has a poster and it looks eerily familiar.
