Sweeney Todd (Another Depp/Burton collaboration)
Hmmm...initially when i found out this was based on a musical...didn't have high hopes, however the cast has swung me in the other direction.

Trailers have looked good so far.

I LOVE Sweeny Todd and I am SOOO excited for this.

Sweeny is NOT your typical musical by any stretch.

I am going the day it comes out. I love Depp/Burton, but I love Alan Rickman even more. I saw a small clip from the movie with him, and it just sent chills down my spine!

One of my all time favorite musicals.

I saw the original Broadway production (on Broadway, original cast) and the more recent revised version - where all the actors are also the orchestra - here in San Francisco (touring company but most of the actors were in the original Broadway cast). Both amazing productions.

I have always wondered how they could convey the live theatre experience of Sweeny Todd to film. But with Burton, Depp, and Carter, I have a feeling this will not disappoint.

I honestly believe that Depp is one of the greatest actors of all time...but that's just me!
