As for me I think that Collinwood is beautiful and a great nod to Seaview Terrace. I visited the mansion in 2010 and it was an amazing experience. Yes it only has one tower on the new Collinwood; however, again everything doesn't have to be the same.
I love the nods to DS I have caught so far with "THE COLLINSPORT STAR" and did anyone notice in this picture with Angelique that it appears to have the infamous afghan makes an appearance (look to the left) and hopefully several!
Sorry if someone else has pointed this out. I did read it if they did.
As for Green I love her. I love the part when she spins her neck around. Barnabas and Angelique were a big part of Dark Shadows; however, I still think this will be an ensemble piece. Again, a two minute trailer cannot truly portray what all will be in the movie.
Brandon Collins it seems according to several different articles that everyone apparently has secrets at Collinwood but I like you feel that Carolyn will play a big part. I am not for sure what; although I have a couple theories. I am a reformed spoilerholic and don't want to know anything about the movie until it's over with. It just makes movies, television shows and books (for me) so much better to be spoiler free.
Eternally optimistic I continue to be!!
