Oh, yay!

I wonder if this movie will hold up well over the years. I remember it being strange yet enjoyable as a kid. I haven't seen it since then. I remember watching the cartoon as well when I was a kid.

The DVD looks absolutely terrible, noisy dot crawl all over the transfer with artificially "thick" color, so this will be a considerable upgrade.

YES!! I've been waiting for this to get an upgrade. One of my favorites, both from childhood and now. Maybe it's my love for Burton's films, but it holds up pretty damn well, if you ask me.

Sweet! A favorite of mine.

Looking forward to this one!

Finally, a decent version of one of Tim Burton's few good films...

I wonder if they are restoring the footage that was removed when it went to dvd.

Quote:

# The version currently available on Warner Home video has been expurgated: when the barber in front of Adam's shop recounts an incident with a customer who had "hair down to his goddamn shoulders" it is altered to "hair down to his damn shoulders" using poor dubbing. Also the instance when Betelgeuse yells out "Nice f*cking model!" and grabs his crotch is cut out. So after he kicks down the tree the next shot shows Adam putting it back up in the model.
