If that's not an appropriate title for a sequel, I don't know what is!

Holy Carp! They're making an Alice in Wonderland movie? That is SO awesome! I love that story. It's one of my absolute favourite children's books. :mrgreen:

Oh right. Here's my current desktop:

The movie is directed by Tim Burton so its going to be a mind bender, hopefully a good one.

I am one of the few people in this world who isn't a big Tim Burton fan. :)

But then I have poor taste, most would say. :)

I'm not particularly thrilled with Tim Burton's films, but some of them aren't too bad. I actually liked Sleepy Hollow, although a number of critics disliked it.

As far as the Twilight series is concerned... I had never heard of it before the movie was released and the millions of teenage girls going crazy over it. I don't understand it, but then again, I haven't bothered to see the movie or read the books. The idea of a teenage vampire involved in a romance with a human is less than interesting to me.

I like Buffy, but I hated the whole Angel/Buffy thing. Not as much as Spike/Buffy, but it still sucked (pun intended).

I like Angel in his own series. In BtVS, however, he was a real wuss.

By the way... did you notice how nearly EVERYONE in both shows are extremely self-absorbed and lack a sense of self-esteem? One of them sees their significant other talking to a member of the opposite sex and suddenly they think, "Oh no! He/She doesn't love me anymore!" :roll:

I know! Isn't it exciting? Maia, is your desktop from a game?

A horror Alice movie just doesn't appeal to me. The bloody environment can stay with American McGee's game. ;)

I didn't care for that game too much.
