Disney loses their director the upcoming live-action Cinderella film, Director Mark Romanek couldn’t come to an agreement with Disney on how the story should be told.

According to Deadline Romanek’s vision was just too dark for Disney.

The original Cinderella fairytale by Charles Perrault, is a dark tale and I guess instead of trying to stick with the original, Disney has a certain image to uphold with it’s fairytale stories.

Published in 1965 Salvador Dali’s remarkable illustrations inspired by Lewis Carroll’s “Alice in Wonderland” are one of the most rarest and sought-after Dali masters piece to date.

The original Dali gouaches were published by Maecenas Press Random House. The collection contains 12 heliogravures, one for each chapter of the book.

The original collection is currently on display at Centrum Berlin.

I have to point out that I love the new Google Doodle so far one of my favorites! I am huge Grimm Brothers buff and I love it!

Before I was allowed to watch horror movies I got my thrills from a good old fairy tale…most of the from the dark masterminds the Grimm Brothers (Jacob Ludwig Carl Grimm and Wilhelm Carl Grimm). What imaginations these two had a product of their surrounding, what a dark bitter-sweet place.

Google celebrated the 200th anniversary of Grimm’s Fairy Tales with an interactive homepage Doodle that tells the story of Little Red Riding Hood.

The Grim Brothers are known for Cinderella, Snow White, Hansel and Gretel and Sleeping Beauty.

Fifteen years after their traumatic gingerbread-house incident, siblings Hansel and Gretel have become bounty hunters who track and kill witches all over the world.

In a interview with Arterton she says: “its a mix of Pulp Fiction and fairly tale.”

The heart of it is that these kids grow up to be bloodthirsty witch hunters. It’s a bit tongue in cheek, really.

Though it’s comedic, deep down it’s about abused kids becoming kind of hyper-responsible?
But it’s also very, very dark, and bloodthirsty and there’s a lot of cursing. It’s kind of got a [Quentin] Tarantino feel, really.
