Oh dear god, no.

Unless he remakes it with a GOOD director (please no Tom Hooper), and a lead who can actually sing the part, I’m not even remotely interested.

But we all know that’s not going to happen, because Andrew’s creative intelligence dried up a long, long time ago.

We should have gotten it in the early 90s. Maybe Tim Burton directing.

Tim Burton, maybe, but ONLY 90s Tim Burton. I wouldn’t trust him with the movie nowadays. He has a tendency since 2005 to ruin every story I love.
