Burton's at it again

Post by shadow dancer »

According to scifi.com

Director Tim Burton told USA Today that his upcoming stop-motion animated film The Corpse Bride, which he will produce, is in keeping with his desire to laugh at death instead of fearing it. "Rather than make it this dark, unspoken thing—which is kind of how I grew up—I always liked the idea that it was more a celebration," Burton told the newspaper. "It feels more positive, somehow, and more spiritual and right to me."

The Corpse Bride, made in the same animation style as The Nightmare Before Christmas, is based on an Eastern European folk tale about a man who mistakenly weds a dead body, the newspaper reported.

Burton seems to be living out the dream of Ed Wood........ A budget on movies to get the visions out and into print just the way they exist in his head..... Bravo!
