Frankenweenie

Frankenweenie is a 2012 3D stop motion science fiction film directed by Tim Burton.^[4] It is a remake of Burton's 1984 short film of the same name and is a parody of and an homage to the 1931 film Frankenstein based on Mary Shelley's book of the same name. Like both those films, Frankenweenie is in black and white. In the film, a boy named Victor loses his dog, named Sparky and uses the power of science to resurrect him. The film was released by Walt Disney Pictures on October 5, 2012 and met with positive reviews and moderate box office sales. It was the first black-and-white feature film and the first stop-motion film to be released in IMAX 3D.^[5] The film appears to be set sometime in the 1960s.

Concerned with his son's isolation, Victor's father encourages him to take up baseball and make achievements outside of science. At his first game, Victor hits a home run, and Sparky, pursuing the ball, is subsequently killed by a car. Inspired by a demonstration of the effect of electricity on dead frogs, a depressed Victor digs up Sparky's corpse, creates a makeshift laboratory in the attic and successfully reanimates Sparky with lightning. Seeing a cat, Sparky escapes from the attic and explores the neighborhood, recognized first by Edgar, Victor's hunchbacked classmate. Edgar blackmails Victor into showing him how the reanimation worked, resulting in the two reanimating a goldfish (which turns invisible). Edgar brags about the fish to their classmates, sparking their interest in reanimation. Victor's parents discover Sparky in the attic, causing him to flee. Joined by Victor, the family search for the dog while the classmates invade the lab, discovering Victor's reanimation formula. All the classmates, going their separate ways, perform their own experiments. Nassor revives his hamster Colossus at the cemetery; he now bears a resemblance to the Mummy. Toshiaki's dead turtle Shelly becomes a huge Gamera-like monster. Bob dumps a package of sea monkeys into his pool; they transform and chase him into the streets. Edgar breaks into the school and brings back a were-rat. Weird Girl's experiment takes a wrong turn when she accidentally mutates the bat intended for the experiment and Mr Whiskers into a vampire cat. The animals wreak havoc in the town. Although each pet is eventually defeated, Mr Whiskers carries off Elsa van Helsing, Victor's love interest, to the town's windmill. The townsfolk blame Sparky for the monsters and chase him inside the windmill, setting it ablaze. Sparky rescues both Victor and Elsa from the burning windmill to the town's approval, only to be pulled back inside by Mr Whiskers. The cat is staked through the heart with a falling rafter just as the windmill crushes Sparky to death. As reward for his bravery, the townsfolk gather to revive Sparky with their car batteries, reanimating him once more. Sparky awakens and is reunited with his own love interest, Persephone, Elsa's Bride of Frankenstein-style poodle. Cast Charlie Tahan as Victor Frankenstein, a young scientist who brings his dog (and best friend) Sparky back to life.

He is the one who inspires Victor to bring Sparky back to life, and acts as a mentor to Victor.[6] Winona Ryder as Elsa van Helsing, Victor's kind next-door neighbor, one of his classmates, and his assumed love interest.[6] Atticus Shaffer as Edgar "E" Gore, a deformed, igor-like child and one of Victor's classmates.

shiver by coldplay

So I look in your direction,
But you pay me no attention, do you?
I know you don't listen to me.
'cause you say you see straight through me, don't you?

And on and on from the moment I wake,
To the moment I sleep,
I'll be there by your side,
Just you try and stop me,
I'll be waiting in line,
Just to see if you care.

Did you want me to change?
Well I changed for good
And I want you to know.
That you'll always get your way
I wanted to say,

Don't you Shiver?
Shiver
Sing it loud and clear

I'll always be waiting for you,
So you know how much I need you,
But you never even see me, do you?
And is this my final chance of getting you?

And on and on from the moment I wake,
To the moment I sleep,
I'll be there by your side,
Just you try and stop me,
I'll be waiting in line,
Just to see if you care.

Oh, oh, oh, oh.

Did you want me to change?
Well I changed for good
And I want you to know.
That you'll always get your way
I wanted to say,

Don't you Shiver?
Don't you Shiver?

Sing it loud and clear.
I'll always be waiting for you.

Yeah I'll always be waiting for you.
Yeah I'll always be waiting for you.
Yeah I'll always be waiting for you.
For you,
I will always be waiting.

And it's you I see, but you don't see me.
And it's you I hear, so loud and so clear
I sing it loud and clear.
And I'll always be waiting for you.

So I look in your direction,
But you pay me no attention,
And you know how much I need you,
But you never even see me.
