Looking forward to the new DARK SHADOWS movie...

Though I find myself still very ambivalent about the proposed new MAN FROM U.N.C.L.E. movie (gotten more optimistic on it lately, but still not sure exactly how I feel), I find myself very much looking forward to the new DARK SHADOWS movie.

This one isn't "possible-pie-in-the-sky" (which the new MFU still seems to be in a lot of respects), but is actually filming even as we speak and is due for release in May 2012.

I loved DS as a teen and I'm hoping this movie really is done right. I think Johnny Depp as Barnabas Collins is a great casting coup. (He's certainly quirky enough for the part.) And this kind of movie is something right up director Tim Burton's alley.

We'll see what we get in the end, but I really want to see this one succeed.
