Tim Burton's Severed Head And An Alien Invader In Today's Daily TwitPic
13 November 2009 6:00 AM, PST | MTV Movies Blog | See recent MTV Movies Blog news »
New Yorkers get a lucky break in two weeks. Starting November 22 and continuing through to the end of April 2010, a career retrospecting Tim Burton exhibit will live at New York's Museum of Modern Art. The exhibit will consist of sketches, paintings, storyboards, puppets, props, costumes and moving image galleries from Burton projects known and unknown. Fans won't want to miss such a rare opportunity to look closely at the legendary filmmaker's process as brings his out-of-this-world ideas together.
For shame if you don't know who Burton is. He's behind an incredible number of bona fide modern classics: "Edward Scissorhands," "Pee-Wee's Big Adventure," "Beetlejuice," "Batman" & "Batman Returns"... a lot of noteworthy stuff. Today's Daily TwitPic actually comes from MoMA's Twitter feed. They posted an image yesterday, a sneak peek at a few of the items which will be incorporated into the exhibit. Check it out after the jump.

Two New Posters For Alice In Wonderland
11 November 2009 9:13 AM, PST | FilmShaft.com | See recent FilmShaft.com news »
Two shiny new posters have been released for director Tim Burton’s surreal take on Disney’s Alice In Wonderland, starring Mia Wasikowska, Johnny Depp, Helena Bonham Carter, Anne Hathaway and Matt Lucas.
The posters (originally released on The Mad Hatter’s Facebook page) feature many of the film’s colourful cast and further cement the idea that this is a Wonderland the like of which has not been seen on the big screen before. Check them out in all their glory below, Alice in Wonderland steps through the looking glass on 5th March 2010 – don’t be late!
Tim Burton (Edward Scissorhands, Beetlejuice) attempts to work his gothic magic over one of the best loved stories of all time… Lewis Carroll’s ‘Alice In Wonderland’ and ‘Through the Looking Glass and What Alice Found There’, which first told the story of a young girl, who after following a rabbit down a hole, »

Elfman Out of 'The Wolf Man'
9 November 2009 9:25 PM, PST | CinemaSpy | See recent CinemaSpy news »
More behind-the-scenes trouble with The Wolf Man, Universal’s much-delayed horror project starring Benicio del Toro? Sure sounds like it.
According to Cinemusic, Danny Elfman, known for the operatic scores of films like Batman, is out as composer of The Wolf Man. He has been replaced by Paul Halsinger, who was part of the 80’s synth-rock group Tangerine Dream. Halsinger composed the scores for the films Underworld, Crank, and Death Race.
It sounds like the latest setback for the project, which has been pushed back four times since its original November 12, 2008 release date. Universal shifted The Wolf Man to February 12, 2009, then April 3, 2009, followed by a move to November 6, 2009. Now it’s due to come out on February 12, 2010, hopefully taking advantage of a good weekend for horror films in recent years.
Joe Johnston, director of The Wolf Man, had been enthusiastic about potentially hiring Elfman as his composer. In a 2008 interview, »
Winona Ryder et al. join Darren Aronofsky’s Black Swan
9 November 2009 9:35 AM, PST | Fangoria | See recent Fangoria news »
/Film has reported that Winona Ryder is one of three actors to join Darren Aronofsky’s psychological/supernatural chiller Black Swan. The latest from the director of Pi and Requiem For A Dream is set to roll in New York City within the next month.
Vincent Cassel and Barbara Hershey have also come aboard Black Swan, which stars Natalie Portman as Nina, a ballerina who finds herself competing with a newcomer named Lilly (Mila Kunis)—who may a hallucination or a ghostly apparition. (Whatever the case, Nina and Lilly reportedly have a very hot sex scene together). Ryder, whose genre credits include Bram Stoker’S Dracula, Lost Souls and Beetlejuice, plays a veteran dancer whose role Nina and Lilly are vying to take over; Cassell, from The Crimson Rivers, Brotherhood Of The Wolf and Sheitan, is the production’s “handsome but sinister” director; and Hershey, whom horror fans know from »

Winona Ryder opens up to "BlackBook"
6 November 2009 8:00 AM, PST | AfterEllen.com | See recent AfterEllen.com news »
If you lived through the late '80s, it’s hard not to have a soft spot for Winona Ryder. Little Noni with her pixie haircut and her big eyes, her pale skin and her goth before goth was even a thing sensibilities. Ten years have passed since her last big splash in the movies with Girl, Interrupted. Since then she has still worked steadily, though often in smaller roles and less high-profile pieces. And she has kept largely to herself and often shunned the spotlight.
So it was great to read her take on her own life now in the new BlackBook interview to promote her upcoming film The Private Lives of Pippa Lee. For a person who doesn’t give interviews all that often, she sure gives great copy.
On why her career has slowed:
"One of the worst things you can be is mediocre. I get offered »

Who Should Direct 'Breaking Dawn'? Tim Burton!
5 November 2009 1:30 PM, PST | MTV Movies Blog | See recent MTV Movies Blog news »
From MTV.Com: Tim Burton digs supernatural stories: the goth-comic ghost tale of "Beetlejuice," the headless killer from the great beyond in "Sleepy Hollow," the undead love story of "Corpse Bride." In a way, Burton knows vampires too, resurrecting Bela Lugosi — the definitive cinematic Count Dracula — in the Oscar-winning biopic "Ed Wood."
All of this has made "New Moon" vampire Jamie Campbell Bower think that Burton should direct "Breaking Dawn," the expected film adaptation of the final book in Stephenie Meyer's "Twilight" series.

Tim Burton digs supernatural stories: the goth-comic ghost tale of "Beetlejuice," the headless killer from the great beyond in "Sleepy Hollow," the undead love story of "Corpse Bride." In a way, Burton knows vampires too, resurrecting Bela Lugosi — the definitive cinematic Count Dracula — in the Oscar-winning biopic "Ed Wood."
All of this has made "New Moon" vampire Jamie Campbell Bower think that Burton should direct "Breaking Dawn," the expected film adaptation of the final book in Stephenie Meyer's "Twilight" series.

Movies That Make Me Think of Halloween
30 October 2009 9:51 PM, PDT | FilmExperience | See recent FilmExperience news »
Recycled Film Experience! I wrote some of this in advance -- years in advance in fact -- to free up time to enjoy this costume crazed holiday. I originally published this list in 2005, but I've tweaked it some. Plus, not all of you were around in 2005. Herewith, the top 12 movies that remind me of Halloween. It's a top ten list and it's not even Tuesday. I'm so generous.
12 The Batman franchise (1989-2008)
In 1997 I went out Halloween clubbing as the Uma version of Poison Ivy. Whenever you dress up as a movie character the year the movie comes out, you'll have competition. There was another Poison Ivy there but I buried her, I promise. I had the horns and all the details, see. It was the longest I ever spent getting ready for Halloween (which is saying something): glue guns, orange wigs, fake foliage, you name it. I don't try as hard anymore. »

tMF Featured Trailer: Alice in Wonderland (Extended)

- - - I have no idea if there is really something extended in the extended Alice in Wonderland trailer, but I'm a big fan of Tim Burton, and what better way to celebrate the coming Holloween than posting something that somehow relates to it? In this case, Burton has made some pretty amazing movies that's dark, spooky, scary and worth it - Sleepy Hollow, Beetle Juice and Sweeny Todd, to name a few.
His version of Alice in Wonderland is scheduled for a March 2010 release, which is 5 months away, but hey the trailer looks impossibly awesome! Plus, Mia Wasikowska - who plays Alice - is a young actress to watch. Watch the trailer after the jump!

New Version of Old Alice in Wonderland Trailer Hits the Web
28 October 2009 11:10 AM, PDT | firstshowing.net | See recent FirstShowing.net news »
This new trailer for Tim Burton's Alice in Wonderland, presented by SpikeTV, doesn't deserve as much hype as it's getting because it's basically a remix or rehash of the original teaser trailer first put out in July. That said, since it technically is a brand new trailer, I'm featuring it anyway, especially because the hype for this movie is (or rather was in July) through the roof. I'll be much more excited once we get to see an actual full-length trailer with finished visual effects and a shot of Alan Rickman as the Caterpiller - that is what I need to make me go crazy with excitement for this new Alice in Wonderland. So anyway, give this a shot. Watch the alternate teaser trailer for Tim Burton's Alice in Wonderland: Alice in Wonderland is directed by visionary director Tim Burton, of everything from Pee-Wee's Big Adventure to »

50 Influential Scream Queens: Part 1
27 October 2009 5:54 AM, PDT | Fangoria | See recent Fangoria news »
Given man's unwavering fascination with woman, it's no surprise that the female star acts as the anchor to a dominant portion of horror pictures. I mean really, who wants to see a bare chested man tearin ass through the woods screaming at the top of his lungs while a bladed assailant nips at his heels? I don't - I know that much, although I'm certain there are plenty of men who would disagree (and that's okay with me, to each his own!). The simple fact remains however, women bring a unique appeal and certain sensual atmosphere to film that no man ever could. And it's not all about gratuitous T&A.
There's a comforting quality in the hands of the heroine; a fascinating maternal strength that, as a man I cannot genuinely relate to. I can however admire, and in many cases it's nearly impossible to not admire the lone »

Winona Ryder
24 October 2009 1:01 PM, PDT | Interview Magazine | See recent Interview Magazine news »
There was a time when Winona Ryder changed everything. She was like the new prom queen-the one who millions of brainy, brunette girls who'd long since disavowed their interest in prom queens had secretly been waiting for. (Some guys, too.) It was Heathers (1988), a groundbreaking, unsentimental (and very smart and funny) film about a pair of high school outcasts (Ryder and Christian Slater) who wind up taking out a handful of the most popular kids at school, that first earned Ryder favored-actress status amongst those of the Generation Formerly Known as X. That early Ryder image-the dark hair, the porcelain skin, the doe-like, knowing eyes, forever threatening to roll upward-very quickly became burned into peoples' brains. It's a singular, powerful image, and one that many directors have deployed in its variations to great effect, from Tim Burton (Beetlejuice, 1988, and Edward Scissorhands, 1990) to Francis Ford Coppola (Bram Stoker's Dracula, 1992) to Martin Scorsese (The Age of Innocence, »

‘Cirque du Freak: The Vampire’s Assistant’ With John C. Reilly Not Freaky Enough
23 October 2009 12:54 PM, PDT | HollywoodChicago.com | See recent HollywoodChicago.com news »
Chicago – For everything that Paul Weitz’s “Cirque du Freak: The Vampire’s Assistant” does right, there’s something about the film that just doesn’t work. More manic than quirky and more cluttered than consistent, “Cirque” features a few great performances and interesting characters but they’re sabotaged by the other members of this cinematic freak show.
Rating: 2.0/5.0
With a plot that plays like what “Beetlejuice”-era Tim Burton might have done with the current vampire craze (“True Blood,” “The Twilight Saga’s New Moon”), “Cirque du Freak: The Vampire’s Assistant” is an adaptation of the books by Darren Shan that is constantly shooting itself in the foot through bad editing, a distracting supporting cast, a super-dull lead, and far too much expository dialogue. A non-ending that tries to set up the franchise a la “The Golden Compass” doesn’t help the feeling that you’ve »

Tim Burton exhibition to open in New York next month
22 October 2009 6:03 AM, PDT | Boxwish.com | See recent BoxWish news »
It would have made the ultimate Halloween movie experience had it come but a month earlier, but that doesn’t dampen our excitement about the upcoming exhibition focussing on the work of director Tim Burton. The mad-haired helmer that brought us such gothic treats as Sleepy Hollow, Beetlejuice and the first two Batman movies, who forged a winning collaboration with Johnny Depp and scored hits both in live action and animated form, will have his career dissected, from his animator days at Disney through to next year’s much anticipated Alice in Wonderland. All kicking off from 22nd November 2009 until 26th April 2010 at New York’s Museum of Modern Art (MoMA). »
