Warner Takes Hornby Tome
Wednesday, May 4, 2005 – Mark Umbach for FilmStem.com – Johnny Depp, Graham King and David Heyman will team up to produce latest adaptation of the Nick Hornby novel; A Long Way Down.
A long way down – Hornby and Infinitum Nihil?
It seem as if Johnny (or Infinitum Nihil) will work together with Warner Bros. on the latest novel of Nick Hornby: “A long way down”.
Maybe he will even take the role as one of the four main characters – a zynical disgraced breakfast TV moderator who thinks of suicide.
Let’s hope, this is true 🙂
UK Movie Magic May 2005 – Charlie and the Chocolate Factory
Title: Charlie and the Chocolate Factory
Publication: UK Movie Magic
Issue: May 2005
There are movies that remain timeless family favourites, rebroadcast on holidays for new generations to enjoy. Movies like me The Wizard of Oz, The Sound of Music, and Miracle on 34th Street fit that mould. Other films are remembered and revered from one era to the next for being unique and irreverent, not because they were mainstream blockbuster releases. These are known as cult classics. Campy movies like The Rocky Horror Picture Show, sci-fi flicks like Blade Runner and low budget horror movies like Invasion of the Body Snatchers fall into this category. There may only be one movie ever made that fits into both categories. The 1971 film Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory is at once cult classic and family favourite.
After over 30 years, the movie has remained popular as ever, being rebroadcast on network television and cable over and over. School plays and Halloween costumes are still inspired by film Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory. The long awaited remake of the original comes to theatres July 15th 2005, and millions of children and adults will he lining up on-line to buy tickets all for very different reasons.
One reason Charlie and the Chocolate Factory is among the most highly anticipated films of summer is because Tim Burton and Johnny Depp are attached to what promises to be a wild ride of a movie.
Roasted Johnny upsets locals
27 April 2005 – bbc.co.uk. – Apparently filming the sequels of Pirates of the Caribbean 2 & 3 down on the island of Bataka in the Caribbean is having a negative effect on the locals. There is a particular scene they are objecting to one in which Johnny is being roasted alive over an open pit. ENT NEWS reports residents have accused studio bosses of implying their ancestors were cannibals, but the film company insists the scene is light-hearted and in no way reflects their cultural history.
