Current Talk '24 I / Re: It's official: Dark Shadows returns as a film with Johnny Depp: **NEWS: #266
« on: June 03, 2008, 03:42:17 AM »though I love Burton's brand of dark comedy, I simply don't want that applied to Dark Shadows, at least not in huge amounts.
I have the same concern - though I'm willing to keep an open mind. Others have pointed to Sleepy Hollow as a film where Burton kept it mostly serious and as a good example of what DS might be like in his hands. It's been 7-8 years since I've seen that film, so I suppose I need to revisit it to get a better idea of what Burton could do with DS.
I would prefer to have these "rumors" substantiated by DCP. In fact perhaps DS movie producer David Kennedy of DCP will soon have something to say to us via Shadowgram. Seems only fair to me.
Something like that would be nice - however, confirmation may not happen soon. They may decide to keep everything for the Fest presentation come July 19th. That's probably what I would do if I were them so as to make the Fest presentation that much more interesting not only for the DS fans who aren't on the Internet and who aren't reading all these Web site reports, but for everyone attending the Fest...
