I don't know much about it. I know that Burton is behind it but I have lost confidence in him as of late. 03/20/2012

I'd actually prefer that this be a full on comedy, with horror elements, because I always liked Burton's comedic films way more than his dramas.  Comedy just seems to be a strongpoint for him.  This might be the first movie of his that I have enjoyed in a long time.  Or, it could just be okay.  Either way, I'm much more interested in seeing this film. 03/19/2012

I am more encouraged that this will be a horror/drama, since Tim Burton has a dark but comical movie for the kids this year in Frankenweenie.

I hope they do keep some darkness in a movie titled "Dark Shadows" and even in the most light hearted Tim Burton films, there always seems to be a sinister undercurrent running throughout. When Johnny Depp teams up with him, things seem to click pretty well, so while I'm not overjoyed by the more comedic tones, considering how much I've enjoyed most of Burton's films, I'm at least willing to give this a shot (plus the supporting cast looks superb). 03/17/2012

I really don't believe that Dark Shadows is going to be a comedy. The trailer highlights some comedic tones, but the movie is actually listed as a horror/drama. I'm holding on to hope that this will be infinitely better than The Rum Diary or The Tourist. Also, it seems as if Johnny Depp is more at ease playing a character drowning in make-up - Alice in Wonderland, Pirates of the Caribbean, Dark Shadows, Sweeney Todd, and next year's The Lone Ranger.

The trailer was quite surprising and funny.  It seems that both Dark Shadows and 21 Jump Street are comedic takes that each only have one tie to their original sources (their titles).  I'm eagerly looking forward to both films, now. 03/17/2012

I wasn't expecting this to be a comedy, but the trailer for it looks great. I understand why people are upset over it, though. They took the material and turned it into something completely different, like has just happened with 21 Jump Street. Both movies probably should've been made under different names. All that aside, Dark Shadows actually looks like it'll be a good movie. I'm looking forward to it. 03/16/2012
