QuotePlot Summary: Tim Burton will produce "Frankenweenie," based on his 1984 short film featuring Shelley Duvall and Daniel Stern about a pet dog brought back to life by his loyal owner. While the original "Frankenweenie" was a live-action project, the new one will be made using stop-motion animation and be in 3-D. Like the original, the feature version is to be shot in black & white. Burton is producing, and many of the animation artists and crew from the director's "Corpse Bride" will be involved.

Release Date: March 9, 2012

Hey, at least it's not Dark Shadows  :P. I don't care if they don't sparkle, it's still emo vampires.

How about something ACTUALLY COOL for a change, Burton? Hell, if you want to retread old ground, I suggest a sequel to Beetlejuice. Oh, and while you're at it, RECORD A COMMENTARY WITH MICHAEL KEATON! I want a proper Special Edition this time, dammit!

The fact that it is going to be animated gives me some hope. Not too much, but some.

That is a plus for it. Isn't the studio that did Corpse Bride thesame one that did Coraline? I was really hoping they would do more interesting things after Coraline, which I LOVED.

If that is true then I am actually kind of optimistic about this. At the very least a black and white stop motion animation in 3D should be rather visually entertaining.
