    dark re-imagining?

    did they fucking watch the original?
    it was extremely dark

    it was a kids movie

    the book was written in 1900 and the movie was released in 1939

    it features a man being torn to pieces, a evil witch dissolving and a trip through a poppy field where the protagonists pass out and trip

    also flying fucking demon monkies

    i could go for a steampunk interpretation... they're halfway there with dark angsty characters but the acting looks kind of shit and it seems more like something the WB would cook up. but it could be that hbo has fucked with my standards who knows

    Zephyr's a retard. The original story is indeed quite dark and even the original movie was pretty dark. They made it less terrifying for kids to watch by putting lots of lighthearted stuff in there but there's still plenty of fucked up moments for a kid in that movie.

    People don't know this, but it was actually Druhim who wrote the book.

    It was a sequel to his smash hit "The Book of Love."

    Previously he had dabbled in non-fiction with his autobiography "This is Gonna be a Looooooooooong Book."
