Three Tim Burton Movies for 2012



Dark Shadows 2012 Trailer

Tim Burton expands his horizons with a twist on the Dark Shadows Series....its a comedy!!!!
Johnny Depp and Tim Burton always always get me excited.....and two of them in one movie.......(shudders with pleasure).

This year I shall be in blisssssss....as the creative ones are delivering a mighty fine three course meal.....check out the other two Tim Burton Movies below.!





Another Tim Burton mind stretcher:
Abraham Lincoln Vampire Hunter- Tim Burton Movie.

Just from the trailer I can see that this is Burton's attempt to expand his comfort zone, creatively speaking. I am sure I will enjoy this. I shall sit and eagerly look for signs of his trade mark elements.







Frankenweenie Trailer

Check out this cartoon that Disney (who really is branching out into new and creative projects) has backed. Tim Burton's Frankenweenie has remnants of his early style.

Compare it to one of his first attempts at animation :Tim Burton's Vincent


I think I will be in Heaven this year!

Dark Shadows remake

http://youtu.be/En0fPi2C8vc

This is the original Dark Shadows from way back when. I actually do not remember watching this as a child. My mother did tell me that I would be entranced by the character Barnabas though.......
it was the beginning of my love affair with the gothic.
Heard Tim Burton and Johnny Depp are collaborating on a remake. Sweet!

Wyrd Sisters

Can't have a proper witchcraft blog without some Witchy fun.
About the best, most developed character I have read with regard to the theme is Terry Pratchett's Granny Weatherwax. You may want to take in the Witches Trilogy, three of Pratchett's books featuring Granny, Nanny Ogg, and Magrat Garlick.


I just think that the antics that they get up to are hilarious. Granny is cool...I love her character....ecclectic witch and all that. Although I think Granny herself would scoff at the description!

Tim Burton Fairy Tales


Just sharing something I found...... a website of Timmy Tales....Tim Burton-like characters and poems....
I am not sure if they came from the creator themselves...but they are his flavour.
