Correct me if I'm wrong, but we don't actually know whether there will or won't be use of the Old House in the new movie's story. All we know is that it was not mentioned in the press release synopsis. I'd be willing to bet dollars to doughnuts that there were some MAJOR ellipses in that synopsis... knowing what I do of the oeuvre and m. o. of Mr. Tim Burton.
Also, it's not clear that the "ruined" Collinwood will stimulate Barnabas to make a trip in time to change family history and restore the manor to its former grandeur. We really know very little how things are set to play out in this redaction once Barnabas is released from his coffin.
Forgive me if I'm being too flippant, but I actually had a really strong image in my mind when the green friend was mentioned of a weary, heartbroken Liz alone in her boudoir, wearing that gorgeous deep blue dressing-gown, taking some long slow tokes on a doob at the end of an elegant holder.
In the psychiatric profession today, they refer to this sort of thing as "self-medicating," I believe.
