Finally saw it and I liked it, loved the colouring and how the blood was really the only colour great ending such a great dark musical.

Joanna was a great song loved what was happening in that song lol.

Very very very good :D
 
I found out today that there is a special edition version of the cd and I don't have it :(
 
I havent seen a couple of the movies that are up for best picture but I did see "Juno" and Sweeney Todd definatley beats it.
I honeslty thought Juno was gonna be alot better, it wasnt very funny



Im addicted to the Worst Pies in London song! And i found Helena strangely hot in this movie :S
 
Anticipation and expectations can kill a movie.

So when's "Sweeney Todd" due to be released on DVD?

Most definatley but thats not what killed it. Ellen Page did great with the material she was given but that dialogue was what killed it imo. Juno wasnt terrible, but it wasnt something that should be up for best picture

Am I the only one who has to listen to "My Friends" and "Epiphany" Like three times a day :huh:
 
I recomend everyone who is addicted to this to try out the Len Cariou/Angela Lansbury CD it has the complete music (The Ballad being returned as well as the Judge's Johnna Reprise and Kiss Me make it worth it) and their vocals are very different and give it all a different perspective for those new to the material.

Anyway, IMO still the best movie of the last year.
 
Saw this movie almost a month ago, and ever since I've been addicted to the soundtrack, and just can't wait for the dvd. Am I the only one that got a bit of a weird Joker/Harley Quinn vibe from Lovett and Todd? the way she kept calling him "Mistah T", her falling for him despite the psychotic murders and the few times he really seemed to make her scared for her own life, and especially the picnic scene where she's dreaming of their wedding and life together and he really couldn't care less, just obsessively thinking about the man he wanted to kill lol.
 
Just saw this movie, and didn't care for it. Depp was good as usual, but I found that the movie just didn't come together at at all. Like a lot of Burton movies, I think he is more in love with the atmosphere of a movie, and fails at actually bringing the material to life. Its kinda the way George Lucas is with special effects in his films.
 
gave it an 8. Great atmosphere, good story, good performances.

just didn't like the singing. sorry, don't like musicals.

Nice movie all around.
 
I guess for someone who gave it an 8, that is good, but why don't you like musicals if they are great movies (like this one)?
 
Some people over here are walking out as they didn't know it was a musical, how small minded of them right I was like how sad...........:whatever:
 
Still a week to go for the opening over here, but I got tickets for an avant premiere tomorrow
 
After watching 4 of the 5 Oscar nominees, I still have to say it sucks this wasn't nominated. I don't see how Juno and Atonement got noms but this didn't. I didn't like No Country, but I at least see why it was nominated (even if I really hated the ending). ST is clearly better than Juno (cute, but Oscar worthy?) and Atonement (which I found to be just ok, but I did quite enjoy the ending, which bumped it up points for me). Now, I definately see the appeal of There Will Be Blood (that deserves the nom, and of the noms, to win easily), but I question some of the others.

But alas. I guess I will just have to disagree with the Oscar voters on this.
 
I watched Juno, and except for good acting, that movie didn't do anything for me... I guess I didn't get it, 'cause if someone asks me what is it about, what is the moral of the story, I'm in big trouble :)
