Title: The Burton/Depp effect
Post by: retzev on February 02, 2009, 11:37:31 AM

Assume the film is a smashing success. Or a complete failure, if you want. Either way I say it kills any chance of DS ever returning as a TV series. Not that there's much chance for that left anymore, but that's beside the point.  Are Direct-to-DVD sequels a possibility? Maybe a Dark Shadows breakfast cereal? I'm sure our collectables will become much more collectable, at least for a while...

I greatly admire your utter cynicism, retzev.

Thank you, thank you. I think we'll see the original two theatrical films on DVD, almost certain of it. Will NODS be restored? I hope so. Dare to hope, MagnusTrask.

I wish Todd Haynes had been attached to the Depp Shadows project as director.

I know, I'm way too weird-ass for my own good...

Direct to dvd sequels are a really good idea.
The Big Finish  DS cd plays and audiobooks are really good, if you want more DS I recommend them whole heartedly!
