Mirror, mirror, on the wall...

My earliest memory of Snow White was the Disney movie with the cute little Dwarves (Dwarfes, Dwarfs?) But as you may know the popular thing now in movie making is to mess around with old fairy tales, and as you may have guessed Snow White is next.

But here's the weird part.

There's not going to be one but TWO movies. Their release date just months apart.

Awkward...

Both films are in full scale production and scheduled to be released in  the spring of 2012. Mirror, Mirror and Snow White and the Huntsman however appear to be completely different stories.

Mirror, Mirror is a much darker twist on the classic, depicting Snow White and the Seven Dwarves taking back their destroyed kingdom. I have no idea what this is supposed to mean, but I seriously doubt Snow White is going to be singing cute little birdies onto her finger,

Snow White and the Huntsman, is definitely not the cartoon you watched when you were a kid. And that's just going by the movie poster depicting Snow White in full armor sword and shield. However I may point out it doesn't appear as dark as it's counterpart, the story involves the Huntsman (Chris Hemsworth) being hired by the Evil Queen to hunt down Snow White. but winds up becoming her mentor.

Anyway that's my take on it, what's your perspective?

    Yep. I've heard so much hype about these movies. Kristen Stewart's starring in both, apparently, so I think I'm skipping them. =P
