’We just watched Tim Burton’s remake, “Charlie and the Chocolate Factory”.
Don’t get me wrong: it’s a fun movie, and I do like Johnny Depp. But.
Gene Wilder is a god.
That’s all I’ll say about that.
In other news, after months of hounding by friends and BA readers, I finally picked up the DVDs for the science fiction show “Firefly”.
Golram! It rocks! That was one of the best series in any genre I have ever seen. When the pilot for a show blows you away, you know you’re onto something: the pilots usually stink. The cast, the writing, the direction… it was all gold. We’re anxiously waiting to get the movie “Serenity” from Netflix.’
