Yes, both weird. "Wonderful" can be hit-or-miss, but most of the time, hit.

I'd probably like it because it was directed by Tim Burton. Then again, so was Charlie and the Chololate Factory.
I love Sleep Hollow 8)
I still quote it...all the time :shifty:

What is grief, if not love persevering?

Grief is just love with no place to go.

If Tim Burton made a movie about this book, which characters would Johnny Depp and Helena Bonham Carter play?

Haha good question! HB Carter would definitely play the Mina Harker character. Johhny Depp...well, he could be Drake, but I think he'd also make a good Victor von Frankenstein.

Whichever one would give him the craziest hairstyle and allow him to talk in a fake accent would be best for him.

Okay, then Victor von Frankenstein. He's German, and a mad scientist. As you would expect.
