Oh dear. Maybe a fan actually reminded Lara that Quentin can "lose" his portrait but still doesn't undergo the werewolf transformation, thanks to Petofi.

The French poster feels as if it is for a sequel to V is for Vendetta.
I agree however that this may be rockin' for French sensibilities.
As for the US poster--who knows?

Those are wonderful ideas, Claude. Some more:
Scarf, Gloves and Handbag 101: the Julia Hoffman school of feminine comportment. Bring a pair of your favorite gloves for the hands-on stretch and stroke part of the workshop.
Wigs, Wiglets and Witchery: from Cassandra to Mrs. Sky Rumson: one Witch's Coiffure
Not My Bag: the art of concealing a pistol in your favorite shopping confection, with notes from Elizabeth Collins Stoddard

A Mayonnaise, Boiled Dinner, and Indian Pudding taste-testing competition, juried by a panel of Mrs Johnson impersonators. Mrs Johnson would reserve the right not to taste any mayonnaise that doesn't "smell fresh."

Maybe the Festival committee is waiting for Tim Burton to release his trailer so they can decide whether or not to invite Johnny Depp to the event?
And maybe it's time for fans who feel sufficiently motivated to do so to start organizing their own event. I know there is already one in Connecticut somewhere or other...

« on: February 07, 2012, 11:10:50 PM »
Bat, I totally agree about that silly Zombie Quentin storyline, although I do love the scene where Barn is reading Jeremiah's diary to Magda and Sandor in the basement of the Old House. And Thayer's work with Sandor's lines in that scene actually brings an edge of pathos to an otherwise rather absurd staging.
Maybe they looked at episodes that had been immortalized in the bubble-gum cards and Viewmaster reels to choose the "fan favorites"?
How cool would it have been if there had been an actual poll where fans could have first established a shortlist of favorites, then voted on the 9 episodes to be chosen. A missed opportunity for MPI.

Interesting. I wish at least one of the episodes could have been pre-Barnabas. I would have chosen episode 1, and a Laura Collins episode, perhaps Laura at the diner recounting the "Phoenix soliloquy" or Laura having a showdown with Liz (which would have been good since the selections don't seem to bother to show off Joan Bennett very much).
As one of my friends is fond of saying, C'est la poo-poo.

Very weird. I just looked and the listings for the regular box sets are still there, too. Some are for sale "new" or "used" for $15.00.
Wonder what's going on? New packaging with references to the Depp project?

Wow. I wonder if MPI is about to lose (or give up) the rights to distribute DS on home video? Since the box set is being touted as a limited edition, it will presumably only be available for a set time.
Has Warners/Universal/Megaleviathan assumed the rights to distribute the series or planning to do so if the Depp movie franchise takes off? Or will the series simply go OP?
I always thought it was phenomenal that Dark Shadows remained in print on home video, and made the transition from VHS to DVD so successfully to the point where ALL episodes have been available now for close to 20 years.
It'll be sad to think that there may be a period when it won't be available. Feels like the ending of an era.

Thanks for that review, Arashi. I love the imagery you describe and would love to see your drawing.
I totally agree re Angelique. Of course it doesn't help that in her final storyline, in 1840, she makes a turn-on-a-dime 180 degree character switch from being her usual psychotic rampaging self to being some kind of altruistic Florence Nightingale of Witchdom. Without any real explanation or justification.
I can see fans who are really hung up on what they did with her in that storyline being able to justify all kinds of stuff with her.
