I’ve just found out reading on the new official Oingo Boingo website that Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory is set to be re-made by non other than legend Tim Burton! What’s even better is than Danny Elfman is scoring it (lead singer of Oingo Boingo when they were around and film composer for films such as Beetle Juice, Spiderman, Nightmare Before Christmas and Edward Scissorhands) and – although I’m not 100% on this – Johnny Depp is playing Wonka! After his performance in Pirates, I’m not alone in becoming something of a fan of his (although for different reasons than *some* of you… :P). I think it’s due to be released in 2005, so let’s hope it’s not rushed and we get some good old Burton-Elfman mastery (as they’ve paired on loads of outstanding films in the past). Anyway, enough of my rambling; have a *link* and a Livejournal cut for a quiz:
