So typical Tim Burton style, wonderfully dark and humorous.

Funny how many people expected a typical Hollywood movie and were surprised by the 'weirdness', 'darkness' and 'strange characters' of the movie.

Anyone else seen it yet?

There were actually quite  a few of us at the preview on the 13th. I was given 80 double passes to hand out and gave most of them away at Sanctuary on the 7th, and the rest the following Saturday at Sin City.

I really enjoyed the movie - especially the Bighton Beach seaside fantasy segment.

Of course the reaction to the movie with an audience that was almost half goths was totally different than a regular crowd. It's tempting to go see it again just to see the reactions of people expecting some kind of fluffy Christmas musical.

"ZOMG!!1! It's not like every other movie and TV show! How can I possibly like it?!?"
