"8 - Building / Depp repairs barber chair / Lifts cover revealing child's body / Depp spins wheel / Trap door shut / Depp: '...Desperate times...'"

Wow. Talk about dark. lol.

Sounds great! But we still don't know if it's real...but it sounds pretty authentic.

That's what I was thinking. This is going to be along the lines of Hairspray and Grease. It won't be extremely close to the play, but it will be good.

Omg. if that's a sign 'By The Sea' makes the cut - I will be very happy!

Yeah- I'm hoping that is a "dream image" from "By the Sea"- how cool!

Depp sings in street as people pass by / Depp: "I will have vengeance...Salvation"


- Yay! 'Epiphany'! Things are lookin for 'By The Sea'.. thank God.

I wish there would be a 'Priest' clip in the trailer.

Burton did say something along the lines that 70% of the movie is singing, so I wouldn't be surprised if almost all of the songs are there. They might be shortened, but I think most of the score will be intact.

Yeah I think that either Burton or Sondheim said in an interview that most of the score was intact but a lot of the cuts are within the songs themselves

Just because these clips are in the trailer there is of no way knowing it makes the final movie cut. I have seen plenty of trailers with tons of stuff in them that don't make the film.

I am pretty excited to see this, though I have never seen the musical nor heard the music.

It's more than a grain of salt - it's the salt shaker. This is legit. Trailer will debut on TV followed by online/movie theatre release. End of September.

"The Spectacle has, indeed, an emotional attraction of its own, but, of all the parts, it is the least artistic, and connected least with the art of poetry. For the power of Tragedy, we may be sure, is felt even apart from representation and actors. Besides, the production of spectacular effects depends more on the art of the stage machinist than on that of the poet."

September is gonna be a good month.

There's the Bare Studio Cast Recording, the soundtrack and release of Across the Universe and the Sweeney trailer.

Sounds intriguing.

I think it's interesting that there doesn't seem to be any Pirelli shots at all, considering the "hotness" of Sacha Baron Cohen at the moment.

...except for his arm sticking out of the trunk, that is.

I would think they'd want to let people know he's in the movie.

I think that may be because most people only know him for Borat, and don't actually know who Sacha Baron Cohen is yet.
