Current Talk '05 I / Re: "Potential new DS movie"

I bought that DVD almost a year ago and haven't watched it yet. But now you've gotten me really intrigued so I'll definitely have to make the time to watch it.
I watched the DVD today and I was just blown away on so many levels.
I know people have been saying Depp could be an interesting Barnabas, but I never really saw it. However, now, after watching his performance in From Hell, I think I'd be thrilled if the unlikely event was ever to happen and he was cast in the role. You weren't exaggerating in the slightest, Rainey, when you said "THAT'S a tortured soul."
And then there's the movie itself. Forget Tarantino and Burton - if there ever would be a new DS theatrical film, someone sign the Hugheses to direct, Peter Deming to be the director of photography, and Martin Childs as the production designer. In particular the look of From Hell is just incredible, especially the use of light and shadow. Any potential DS film would be lucky to look half as good. Their combined efforts make for what I only hope another DS film could be.
