Tim Burton Exhibit 2011

May 29th to Halloween 2011, the works of Mr. Tim Burton will be on display for entertainment, education and merriment in Los Angeles at the LACMA.

The expectations are high as this exhibit opened last year at Manhattan's MOMA and was of the most successfully attended shows in the history of the museum.

Included in the show are films, drawings, props from films and rare private art.

Let's hope Red Light District will have a special performance!

I just saw the film, 9, and it was a 4!

I have just arrived home from my walk from The Arclight Cinemas, where I saw the midnight screening of 9, the new Tim Burton film. I have been excited to see this film since last year, when I first learned about it. It was also on my list of films I have wanted to see in 2009.

I give 9 a 4 or perhaps a 4.5 as a whole. The visuals were certainly worthy of a 9 or even 10, however the story lacks in so many ways that I will NOT go into as I do not want to tell the story. The voice acting was a celebrity cast, which I tend to not really care about either way. Was it because I have seen this story before in other places? Is it because the short story upon which the film is based is richer? Is it because I saw UP yesterday and that film is now in my top films I have ever seen? Could be.

I did enjoy nods to other films, the visuals and such and even though I was not so moved by this film, perhaps you will be and it certainly has fantastic visual and audio effects making it a film you can enjoy in the theatre.
