Burton Makes Special Appearance
Tim Burton made a special appearance at Disney's D23 Expo on September 11th, promoting Alice in Wonderland. See more pictures here. He briefly mentioned Alice in Wonderland and gave a bit of official news on Frankenweenie...
Tim Burton and Dick Cook, Chairman of the Walt Disney Studios
When Burton was asked why he wanted to make an adaptation of Lewis Carroll's Alice, Burton replied, right in front of Disney big cheese Cook, "I never saw one... I know you already made one... that did justice to the material."
Tim Burton and fellow director Robert Zemeckis (Back to the Future, Who Framed Roger Rabbit, A Christmas Carol)
Burton confirmed that a stop-motion, feature-length adaptation of his 1984 short film was in the making, and is currently set to be released in 2012.

So, where is the new footage?!
They are said, there will be new footage!!!!
There was probably new footage for the attendees, but those of us who didn't go to the D23 Expo will have to wait.
All that was shown was the Teaser Trailer, at least, thats what I heard.
Burton totally burned Disney and I loved it. Bahh... this movie needs to come out NOW!
