Maybe so. I just don't understand why she would put the original show down before the movie even has a chance.
Well, like I said in an earlier post about her remarks, we should be used to people putting down the original show. How often have we seen the original DS described as hilariously bad or words to that effect? Even Burton and Depp pretty much categorized the show that way back when they were publicizing
Alice in Wonderland in early 2010 on
Friday Night with Jonathan Ross. (Who can forget the whole "flies" discussion on that show?
) But like I also said, some of the things HBC said about the DS film are very interesting and I loved hearing much of her description. It certainly intrigued me.
One thing that
is unconscionable about the IGN piece is that they put words in HBC's mouth because nowhere in MTV's video does she say, "I might as well call out the original for being a piece of junk!"
And people who only read their piece are not going to realize that because they quote those words as if she actually said them. But then, how often have we said that some of these sites have no scruples whatsoever?
