It looks more like a horror to me.
Johnny adds something new to Wonka as well, kinda creepy.

Thoughts?

Not completely though.
I'm trying to find a good trailer of it, as it looks different than the original.

I know, another remake, but hey, I think Depp could pull it off.

I think it will be great, i remember the original and it used to be my favourite movie. One thing i hope, is that this time it isnt a sing-a-long. that was probably the only thing that i didnt like.

It appears to be a lot darker, and with Burton and Depp it could be interesting, so I think I might give it a look. I've gotta admit I'm a bit sick of remakes though...

Ya, it does look like it will be much darker.
Burton will add a very interesting twist to the movie. He's one of my favorite directors.

I will probably see this film but think that as is the case with most remakes, it won't top the original.
