Am I the only one who thinks it might be nice if Tim Burton had just a little bit more of a positive attitude that the Depp/DS film will turn out well. His latest round of remarks seem to have culminated in the ones in this article:
Tim Burton on Twilight and His Own Two Upcoming Vampire MoviesYes, it's all well and fine to be cautious before a project starts and to not jump the gun to say it's going to absolutely be God's gift to entertainment. It's never smart to come across as a conceited ass.
But there's a fine line between being cautious and coming across like you presently have no idea if you're ever going to be able to pull something off. But maybe that's just the way Burton is - maybe he always prefers to be cautious and humble (rare qualities in many directors) lest something turn out horribly wrong when beforehand he'd bragged too much about it. But still, a bit more positivity than he's currently providing wouldn't hurt.
