Capturing the soap opera atmosphere of the original episodes is something the film is actively trying to recreate. "That's part of what the vibe of the show is, and there's something about it that we want to get... it's early days. I'm very intrigued by the tone. It's a real ethereal tone we're trying to go for and I don't know yet." To read the full interview, click here.

I'm glad he won't do it 3D. It won't need it!
i'm glad Burton's sensitive to the weird tone of the soap. the original films didn't capture it at all
