Sweeney Todd Trailer Released

I think it's weird!
Well obviously, it's Tim Burton, was always gonna be a bit freaky.

Not sure I can get my head around Johnny Depp singing though...that's definitely a new one on me. Alas, even as a gross, dirty, murderous barber, he is still gorgeous :D

Will probably end up watching it, Burton and Depp make a good team, it's probably very good.
 
Go and see it to see if you think it's a thin story or not,
I have seen this quite a few times and can tell you it has a lot more depth than your Pilates of the Caribbean

This is Sondheims Sweeney Todd directed by Tim Burton, It has been staged around the world numerous times by many theatre and opera companies, now Depp and Bonham Carter are cast in the roles originally played by Angela Lansbury (Murder She Wrote) and Len Cariou (West Wing, Law and Order, CSI) George Hearn

Heres a taster
Sweeney Todd: Later on, when it's dark, we'll take him to some secret place and bury him.
Nellie Lovett: Well, of course, we could do that. I don't suppose there's any relatives going to come poking around looking for him.
Nellie Lovett: [pause, as an idea strikes her]
Nellie Lovett: But... You know me. Sometimes ideas just pop into me head and I keep thinking... Seems a downright shame...
Sweeney Todd: Shame?
Nellie Lovett: Seems an awful waste... Such a nice plump frame wot's-his-name has... had... Has... Nor he can't be traced. Business neeRAB a lift - Debts to be erased - Think of it as thrift, as a gift... If you get my drift...
[Todd stares blankly]
Nellie Lovett: No?..... Seems an awful waste..... I mean, with the price of meat what it is, when you get it, IF you get it...
Sweeney Todd: [Getting the idea] Ha!
Nellie Lovett: Good, you got it.
 
I've never liked the story and am not a Johnny Depp fan ... but it has the gorgeous Alan Rickman in it so I'll be going to see the film for that reason. :p And Alan does a duet with JD - I want to see that. :D
