Vic Mizzy's wonderful and sticky theme music from the 1960s television series The Addams Family is about to embed itself in your brain. Permanantly.
Tim Burton will be making a big screen update of the classic Charles Addams cartoon... in 3-D. "Ooh scary, kids! Cousin It will be running under your legs... in 3-D! Ahooo!"
Maybe Mizzy's theme will be adapted by composer Danny Elfman.
The news...

Is this the same Tim "I hope I live long enough to remake everything even slightly kooky, whether it needs it or not" Burton?
I have to admit that this is one good fit. Too obvious, actually. I'm surprised it's taken this long.
Well see.
He already did this. It was called BEETLEJUICE.
"The Addams Family" is a brand name. From a business perspective, it does make sense. Even the previous features are twenty years old (hard to believe).
If Burton is smart, he will tap into Charles Addams' sense of humour, inherent in the original New Yorker Magazine cartoons.
