I would love to see that. Though not at the hands of Tim Burton. I think Burton's stepped into Lucas territory.

I think Guielmero Del Toro is looking at Lovecraft. He's essentially the new, less distinct Tim Burton with a bit more range.
I didn't realise you were the only one I quoted. Weird.

Anyway, Burton probably doesn't want to be the next Stephen King.

Delo Toro also has a nice splash of Henson in him. Not too outlandish, when you consider Tim Burton captured a lot of childlike wonder in his movies, while still being dark and "off." That's why I thought he'd be so good for Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. And boy, was I wrong.

Otherwise, I'd probably be really pumped for a Burton-style Addams Family. Now I'm more praying he doesn't fuck it up.
