Well, the Oscars have been and gone, and Sweeney Todd got one Oscar for Best Achievement in Art Direction. Unfortunately, it lost against Elizabeth: The Golden Age for Best Achievement in Costume Design, but let's face it, those costumes on Elizabeth were gorgeous and they had really worked hard to achieve the whole look of the queen and the court. Johnny Depp lost to Daniel Day-Lewis for Best Performance by an Actor in a Leading Role. Is it just me or are the titles for the prizes getting longer?
Tim Burton is already working in his next projects, and it being that I am a huge fan of his, I just can't wait until they are released. In the pipeline he has such titles as Frankenweenie, The Spook's Apprentice and Alice in Wonderland.
Frankenweenie and The Spook's Apprentice are hopefully being released in 2009, and his take on Alice in Wonderland is in the pipeline for 2010. Frankenweenie is a stop motion animation, which we hope is going to be as good as Nightmare Before Christmas, and it is based in his 1984 short of the same title. The Spook's Apprentice is about a boy who has to learn how to exorcise ghosts, contain witches, and bind boggarts in the 1700's. And we all know, more or less, what Alice in Wonderland is about, although Burton will probably stay away from the shugary take Disney did of the story and stay with its original story as per Lewis Carroll's original.
