Tim Burton has signed to direct two 3D pics for Disney for whom he made Nightmare Before Christmas and Ed Wood. First up is a version of Lewis Carroll's Alice in Wonderland which will combine performance-capture imagery and live-action footage. After that, he'll direct and produce a feature length stop motion version of his 1984 short Frankenweenie which is screening as part of the BFI Tim Burton season.
I'm seeing Tim soon, so I hope to have more on these two projects from the man himself.

When talking about 3D we talk about something like Beowulf? With all the glasses stuff and all? Sounds, at least, interesting...
Greetings from Barcelona! :)
Hola!
Yes, we're talking glasses and stuff. I'm really excited. I thought Nightmare in 3D worked really well, even though it was shot 2D. So something especially designed with the extra dimension should be fantastic.
And with technology changing so fast, it should be even better than Beowulf which is tremendous.
How exciting is this! It's crazy that he's actually finally doing Alice in Wonderland after years and years of people posting as much on a billion messageboards internet-wide. Add the performance capture element and this has me really excited.
But Frankenweenie has me even more so :D
Also...
More Sweeney.
Cool.
