On other matters, holy crap does
Dark Shadows look pathetic! I haven't had much faith or interest in the Depp/Burton pair in a long time (though I give Sweeney Todd a B minus or so, because I love the source material so much, mostly.) but it almost looks like they're trying to piss off fans with this one. I'll be happy if the restoration and Blu-ray release of
House of Dark Shadows and
Night of Dark Shadows happens.
Regarding the long list of Disney catalog releases, it makes me think of a time when Disney released lots of movies every year. Not all of them were winners, but at least they were out there pitching. These days, it seems like an ever-shrinking slate of expensive wet squibs from the mouse. And though
Avengers may end up chock full of Whedon-y goodness, I'm pretty pissed about the Avengers monorail - I detest the monorail as billboard concept, and this is ugliest yet.
