ComingSoon.net is claiming that director, Tim Burton, has decided to call it quits on the "Ripley's Believe it or Not" movie. There is no reason yet for Tim’s departure.
The movie stars Jim Carrey as the ever-adventurous Robert Ripley.
The project has been rough from the get-go. Originally set to film in November 2006, the movie had been delayed later that year. Jim had ideas that facilitated a change in plans. In December they hired Steve Oedekerk to re-work the script. The movie was finally looking to move forward with planned filming set in early 2008 and an early 2009 release. Now it may be pushed back even further.
According to the site, Paramount Pictures is currently seeking for a new director to replace Tim Burton. It is unknown yet if Paramount will be trying to replace him with a top-tier director, or a cheap no-name guy to save budget.

really sad news... i cant belive it... first that happened with Spielberg, and now with one of my favorite directors, Tim Burton.. I wanted to see that movie with burton directing so hard..
The news doesn´s specify why burton went out, I would like to know why, and in case he won´t back, I hope a very good director to do the thing.
WHAT SAD NEWS!!!
YEEEEESSSSSSSS!!!!!

If Steven Spielberg joins then Jim should do it otherwise if some unknown director joins then he should leave the movie.

Choose your friends by their character and your socks by their color, choosing your socks by their character makes no sense, and choosing your friends by their color is unthinkable!

I think Johnny Depp was getting jealous that Tim was doing a movie without him so he persuaded Tim to leave so it wouldn't get in the way of their "close" relationship. lol.
