Johnny Depp's 'Dark Shadows' Photos Draw Comparisons to Michael Jackson, Willy Wonka

Back in September, the first photos of Johnny Depp as a vampire in the upcoming film "Dark Shadows" debuted online. This blog article discusses the various, mixed reactions from those who viewed the pictures. Half the viewers believe he looks creepy, almost as Michael Jackson did with his plastic surgery. Some other viewers are excited and love the look. Already we see a split view of perception from audience members, so I'm interested to see if that will start to unbalance as time goes on.

Though a sequel to the hit film Beetlejuice was written in 1990 titled Beetlejuice Goes Hawaiian, it was never produced (for some reason). Well, it seems that a new sequel is in the works, and Tim Burton is on board.

This just goes to show that while the amount of time needed to wait before a rebooting a franchise is shrinking (e.g. Spiderman), the window of time within which a sequel can be released is growing (e.g. Wall Street: Money Never Sleeps). Thank goodness, too, because I thought the film industry was going to have to start coming up with new ideas.

Personally, I'm waiting for The Nightmare Before MLK Day.
