At this rate, we'll be lucky to get this trailer before May 10.
And, honestly, as much as I love Johnny Depp, I'm only watching the film for two of my top 10 favorite actresses--Helena Bonham Carter & Eva Green.

@Shivasavasana :D

@slimshady5712 Lara Parker is hard to beat as Angelique. I'm just glad someone your age enjoys it, keeping this wonderful show alive! You are a credit to your generation.

@Shivasavasana I'm not saying it was bad, it just didn't compare to the original to me at all. Barbara Steele was amazing as Julia I'll admit that. I've been obsessed with this show since I was 12, I'm 14 now and keep re-watching the entire show. It's the best show I've ever watched haha. I'm so excited for the movie, I think Johnny Depp's perfect to play Barnabas.

@slimshady5712 Of course the original will always be the best, but don't forget the 1991 version was also created by Dan Curtis. The camera work, acting, and costumes were breathtaking! AND the casting. Come on, BARBARA STEELE as Julia Hoffman! Sure, it was a revision of the original, but it stands on it's own as a monument to the talents of Dan Curtis, may he rest in peace. I only hope they do him justice with the new film.

I love Dark Shadow, watch it when I was 5 year old when was new and I still watch all the reruns of Dark Shadow as much as I can.
I would like to see Dark Shadow the movie,Hope Johnny Depp got Barnabas Collins down pack or I'll be pissed

I think we all know that a GENIUS like TIM BURTON would never mess this up! not to mention JOHNNY DEPP <3 DEAR GOD he looks so young (and gorgous by the way <3) when he is i costume for this new series!

@TheTalentedMrRipley1 In another interview he did talk about how with these movies and tv shows coming out now with vampirs it left him wondering what happened to vampires? He talked about how he liked the vampire movies with Bela Lugosi and Christopher Lee and watching Nosferatu. I don't think it will be anything like twilight at all.

@hserokdivad I agree and I hope they dont tweak the story.. for the Twilight crowd... This was our Twilight time for us old skoolers. This was way ahead of its television time to have a vampire soap opera. I use kinda small when it came out but later on I saw it with my mom. She loved it... I think Barnabas Collins is way better then Edward on Twiight. The 1980s version sucked.. Ben Cross was no Barnabas Collins.
Please Tim Burton stay true to Jonathan Frid's Barnabas and the storyline of Dark Shadows and don't screw it up !!

Honestly..I don't think anything can ever be as good as the originals. I'm 13 & I absolutely LOVE the original. I watched the 90's version & didn't really like it. Don't get me wrong I love Johnny Depp, and I think he'll be great as Barnabas. But I'm worried about Eva being Angelique. Lara Parker did great as Angelique. I don't think Lysette Anthony was fit for the part at all. The original Angelique (Lara Parker) is one of my favorite characters. Can't wait for the movie to come out though [:
