Default Sweeney Todd

One of the best musicals of all time has recently been adapted into a motion picture by none other than Tim Burton. After many years of trying to secure the rights to Sweeney Todd, a tragicomic musical by Stephen Sondheim, he finally succeeded. He has put together a great cast, and with Burton at the helm you know you're guaranteed great visuals and heaps of style.

Today, the trailer was released on Yahoo. I hope you enjoy it. I know I did.

I caught this trailer about an hour ago and I. Was. SHAKING. I don't think I've ever been so excited to see a trailer in all my life (wow, I'm lame).

The trailer blew me away. I actually like Depp's singing during Epiphany (some people are disappointed). The movie looks so visually stunning and OH MY GOODNESS I'm just so excited! The trailer being released today MADE my day!

It was beautiful. I really like the way they seem to be doing Epiphany, the closest the musical comes to breaking the 4th wall. Being such a dork I could tell all songs just from seeing the scenes, from the Contest to By the Sea. So you're in good company IL.

Really this movie cannot come soon enough!

Fantastic trailer, and as always, another great Tim Burton film, as well as a soon to be great performance from Johnny Depp.

I'll definitely see it. Someone I watch on DA loves Sweeny Todd, and I really want to see what its all about.

Now, I'm in a situation. The soundtrack will definitely be out before the movie. So should I buy it before or after the movie. If I buy it before I can't be surprised, but I won't be as disappointed by the changes. If I wait until afterwards, I could be disappointed, but I'd be surprised at least, and frequent soundtrack listens will help the entire thing grow on me.

What to do, what to do?

I'm having the same dilemma. But I think I won't be able to help myself and I'll end up buying it the day it comes out and listening to it again and again and again and again and...you get my point But yeah, I really want to be surprised as well though. It's a tough choice. XD

All right. I'm double-posting, but it's time to revive this topic.

Three songs have been leaked, ya'll!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E_Bg7Oj_Kzc (Johanna)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y00aTcOfl8c (Epiphany)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XyB9DMr8Nw8 (My Friends)
These recordings were taken from a screening, hence the poor quality and dialogue.

(My opinion on the songs...I nearly died. I wanted to cry during Johanna because it's so beautiful. Epiphany's my favorite. My Friends is beautiful too. Johnny sounds wonderful. I can proudly say I never doubted him. And people who had already seen screenings said Helena wasn't that great. Yeah, I beg to differ.)

Also, for the Sweeney virgins who would like to see the musical before the movie comes out, the version with Angela Lansbury and George Hearn is on Google Video in three parts:
Part I
Part II
Part III

Here's a little behind the scenes-like thing with Epiphany. Man, I can't wait for this movie
