Does anybody know if Tim Burton is working on a film or not?
I believe his last movie was the not so appreaciated Planet of the Apes (I may be wrong, though). If that`s correct, then it`s about time for a new movie. I hope he`ll soon make a good horror movie again (like Sleepy Hollow). Just wanted to know if somebody has some information.

P.S
Sorry if this is supposed to be in the Upcoming section. I really didn`t know where it fits better.

He's currently filming a drama called Big Fish. according to IMDB:The story revolves around a dying father and his son, who is trying to learn more about his dad by piecing together the stories he has gathered over the years. The son winds up re-creating his father's elusive life in a series of legends and myths inspired by the few facts he knows. Through these tales, the son begins to understand his father's great feats and his great failings. It also stars Ewan McGregor. That's all I know.

I have always been into 'Tale Tales' and from what I read over at upcomingmovies.com this movie sounds like it'll be chock full of them. It is based after the book of the same title but the author's name slips my mind.

Big Fish isfilming in Montgomery, Alabama and guess what? My brother knows where a one Ewan Mcgregor is staying. How you ask? His roomate works in a Lense Craftors and Mcrgegor went in to fill a prescription, and in doing so was required to give out an adress and phone number. they are planning on harrasing him into a toy lightsaber duel(thats something they participate in often). Hopefully they will still be filming there this summer when I come down to visit!
Yes it sounds like BS but it aint, my brother has neveer lied in the stint of our relatonship, at least nevere to me.:D

I love bragging!

Lalalala...

Yup, he's shooting BIG FISH, and the movie has a great cast: Ewan McGregor, Albert Finney, Billy Crudup, Jessica Lange, Helena Bonham Carter, Steve Buscemi, Danny DeVito, Alison Lohman, and one of our french stars named Marion Cotillard (a very pretty woman, starred in the TAXI films produced by Luc Besson).

Danny Elfman is composing the score, and Philipe Rousselot (another Frenchman, worked on REMEMBER THE TITANS, ANTWONE FISHER, PLANET OF THE APES, A RIVER RUNS THROUGH IT, MARY REILLY...) is the cinematographer.

But unfortunately for you, BIG FISH isn't horror -- it's drama.
