Change of Pace

This week many television shows are starting new seasons. One of my favorite shows, "Heroes", started into its forth season. I was really impressed with the show up until season three. I was very disappointed with the show in season three, because they began to change the characters too much. The story got messed up somewhere along the line as well. Some of the main characters lost their abilities and gained new ones. The reason why people liked the show so much to begin with, was because of their abilities. I think if they're going to have a successful forth season, they're going to have to really draw the attention back to those characters. Plus if people have a problem with the show's storyline then they just shouldn't watch.

Alice in Wonderland

Disney recruited Tim Burton to direct an upcoming fantasy classic: "Alice in Wonderland". Burton has also recruited one of his usuals: Johnny Depp. He will be appearing as the infamous "Mad Hatter". Burton always seems to add his own flavor to his films. In the remake of the classic movie "Planet of the Apes", Burton helped design sets, costumes, and props. It will be interesting to see what Burton cooks up for us next. I personally look forward to this film, especially from an artist like Tim Burton. I enjoy the "creepy" vibe that each film carries with it. Johnny Depp is the type of actor that can pull off almost any type of role he's presented with. He usually ends up becoming the trademark for the characters he plays. One character for example that we'll always recognizing him as is the infamous "Captain Jack Sparrow". If you thought "Alice in Wonderland" was creepy to begin with, it's about to get even creepier. Although the film will not be released until March of 2010, trailers for the film have already been released. Stay turned! Who knows what else Tim Burton will cook up for us next.
