Yay!!! I love Tim Burton AND Johnny Depp.

I'm sure looking forward to it. Besides the fact that its a Tim Burton film its based more on the book than the original film. Don't get me wrong, I love the Gene Wilder version but this looks like it will be different enough from it to enjoy in a whole new light.

I don't like Depp but I will definately watch this because I love the story.

I been waiting for this film for a long time, they originally wanted marilyn manson to play willy wonka, I am glad they cast someone else.

Why do ya'll have to put movies in odd formats?

Kidding. But I can't get it to work but it sounds like a remake of Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory? What format is it suppoed to be?

quicktime, that's why you didn't hear the music last night either for jabe's event...

I'm full-on stoked for this film.

I've heard that Roald Dahl never much cared for the original film, because it wasn't dark enough. The book is sinister in its darkness, and I think this is going to be the version he really would have loved to have seen made.

I love the Gene Wilder one. I love it dearly, but I'm looking forward to what Depp does with Wonka. Just the page-boy look alone is enough to creep me out.

Another bit of contemporary pop culture that miraculously slipped by me somehow in my youth.

I am a big fan of Roald Dahl's spy classics, but never checked out Wonka.

I'm a longtime Depp fan as well so I'm looking forward to the book and movie.

If you can't see this trailer (which I could not), and you really want to see one, check out Yahoo! movies. They have one where there are some creepy kids singing 'bout willy wonka in the background.

Thats the same one, Delty.

The trailer is also up on Quicktime.com.
