Actually, it looks like it's mostly about the Depp/DS film to me, so I moved it here.
I JUST finished watching DS/12 on IFC (no editing, that was definitely different!)
I just saw where the film was on IFC tonight. More than 24 hours ago I received a Google Alert (but I just checked my e-mail a short while ago) that the Lansing State Journal in Lansing, Michigan recommended it among tonight's TV highlights. It's nice to see that it still pops up apart from around Halloween.
I still say 'they' (not Burton or Depp) could do A L O T of different story arcs with remaining and/or new characters.
Someone certainly could. And hopefully some day someone will...
