FYI This article briefly mentions that the Japanese Warner Bros 2009-2010 Press Book has the Dark Shadows movie being released in Japan in the winter of 2010. After the article's link you are directed to a Japanese website which has the movie name in English but the information is written in its native language. Although the article was written today, April 14, 2009, the information in the Press Book may be inaccurate on the movie's release date.

Considering that a strike could easily derail the start of production on the Depp/DS film, this is potentially good news: SAG Strike Likely Averted.

It's not surprising that several sites have jumped on this. What is a bit surprising is that some of the reports wonder if the site is reporting more news than meets the eye because they can't read Japanese. Apparently they've not heard of translation sites like Yahoo's Babel Fish. Granted, it's often far from perfect when it comes to translating - but you do get the gist. Check out the translation here.

The translation also reveals a link to this posting that was made two days later. Though who knows what it is that they're sharing in the two images?  [idontknow]

I don't know if I like this person's vision of what the Depp/DS film could be like with Tim Burton directing. A "hybrid of old Dracula movies and Charlie and the Chocolate Factory"? Scary! But not necessarily in a good way.

Why does it say Depp has been working on this for several years? That doesn't seem right. And though I don't like the flippant attitude of the blogger, I have to agree I would have liked an 'ending' to the revival series as well (even though we already covered that ground in the original).

They probably meant "working to get the film made", as opposed to actually filming it or anything like that.  I just checked a timeline that I keep of all important Depp events  [ghost_wink]  and have the official DS announcement as having been July 26, 2007, which was not quite 2 years ago.  And I think that there have been reports that he was in talks with DC productions for a time prior to that. 

As for the blogger, well, bloggers' opinions are like... well, you know, everyone's got one  [ghost_tongue2]  I for one hope that the film is as un-Charlie&ChocFac-like as possible.  But after seeing Sweeney Todd, my faith in Burton to direct this film has increased  (I still think someone like Guillermo del Toro might've been a more interesting choice for this one...)

A video taken on 04-14-09 of John August's Rancho Mirage seminar session where he briefly states that out of his pending projects Dark Shadows is the next thing that shoots and that it should be great; that they are waiting on Tim Burton. So finally John speaks about DS although there is no real news to report. His brief DS discussion starts at approximately at the 98:38 mark and only lasts about 20 seconds or so.

A lot of times I cannot view videos such as this. Can someone tell me what I need to download or do?

Taeylor I believe downloading Adobe Flash Player 10 should solve all of your video playing issues and I believe it's free at this link or you can find it free at other websites. Perhaps other cousins here can confirm or recommend something else but it worked for me.   http://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/

That didn't help Jimbo, however, I appreciate the effort. I have no idea what it is.  I installed it and then restarted the computer but it still isn't showing anything.  Again, much appreciated! :)

Who really knows how long Tim Burton will be shooting his beloved Alice movie. One actor states in this interview that T.B. is presently fighting with Disney because Disney does not like the caterpillar that smokes. As long as the DS movie starts shooting this fall I could live with the great caterpillar debate. lol  http://www.universityobserver.ie/2009/04/28/the-reluctant-villain/

Note to Taeylor. No problem I just wish you resolved your issue.
