No problem. Next time, just try doing a search of the board though, this way you can just bring an old thread to life.

However, since this one is now here, I will add my two cents. Even though I really like the original, I think this one will be great too. I just wish they would have gotten Christopher Walken to be Wonka. There was a site out there that had concept drawings of the new Oompa Loompas back when Walken was still under consideration, but I am not sure what the URL is or if it is even still out there. They were pretty freaky looking.

I agree that Christopher Walken would have been best. Just picture him doing the scene through the tunnel where he sings a little. It would be the most horrifying movie ever.

I wholeheartedly agree. They could have done worse than Johnny Depp though.

No, he hasn't left the house ever since he removed his two lower ribs.

Man, I can't believe you betrayed my trust like that. I even paid you not to tell anybody.

You're Josh Saviano? So, what's it like being Marilyn Manson?

A lot like being Alice Cooper, only more derivative feeling.
