While I'm certainly excited for this, as much as I hate to admit it, and as much as I love a lot of Burton's work, I'm afraid that this is might be just a typical lame blockbuster simply washed in his vision. But not even his vision really...more like what people want to see of his vision. The stuff that they recognize. Plus a lot of CGI and special effects. I'm sure the film will look great, but there needs to be a force behind it all, and not just a lot of B.S. to sap Burton's vision. Charlie and the Chocolate Factory looked great too, but it was so unconvincing and impersonal.
Sweeney Todd was awesome because he didn't try to please anyone. I remember hearing about him sticking his foot down on a lot of issues. I'm afraid we won't see that here.

Oh well, I'll be keeping my fingers crossed until then.
