Tim Burton to direct Alice in Wonderland
Posted by Cory Doctorow, December 10, 2007 11:21 PM





Tim Burton's directing a film adaptation of Alice in Wonderland. Alice is the first book I ever read to myself and I've never fallen out of love with it. The Burton adaptation will feature live action and animation -- though it probably won't be half as weird as this Czech surrealist adaptation featuring taxidermied animal skeletons in stop-motion animation.
Burton will also produce the adaptation, which will use both live action and performance-capture animation.
"The stories are like drugs for children, you know?" Burton said. "It's like, 'Whoa, man.' The imagery, they've never quite nailed making it compelling as a full story. So I think it's an interesting challenge to direct."

Filming on Alice's Adventures in Wonderland is set to begin in early 2008. Burton will work from a script by Linda Woolverton (Beauty and the Beast)

Inside the Hollow of Night

With willow eyes
I watched you crawl
inside the hollow of night
to rise at dusk,
from sacred earth,
tendrils, clinging to
a weeping wish.

I felt every inch
of your journey,
drank every drop
of dew that laced
the crescendo
of your climb,
only to watch you die
in the warmth
of a jealous sun.

Your eyes close pretty,
and I weep, while
you breathe the longest hours,
entwined in truth
of dusk's dream
till we kiss
the sunset goodbye

So, I will wait
for shadow's promise
to bring you home,
unfurled in the scent
of Moonflowers
and tangled limbs,
still reaching for
the ever-breathing
nectar of night.

I'm working on getting this blog finished - in the meantime, here's a vidi for you.

Cool Cats

The very first blog. Decided to make it short and sweet. Turn off my music and play a couple of these videos if you have time. Navagate the player with the arrows. Favorite Cats: Cheshire Cat, Pink Panther, Sylvester and Puss'n'Boots.







Enjoy!
