come as you are

Okay, so I was having a pretty damn terrific day to begin with: I cleaned up the house last night and it looked good for the landlady and her appraiser. I got up at a decent hour so I could go to the DMV (because they will forward mail, but apparently not drivers licenses, silly) and have a new interim piece of flimsy paper drivers license, and even went to Target and got the second season of Supernatural (a long delayed present to myself) and even a cheap copy of Lucky Numb3r Slevin, which is an awesome movie.

But then? copinggoggles linked to a trailer for Sweeney Todd. Yes, there needs to be more singing. And the pies, where are the pies??? Of course, Johnny Depp looks like they told him to bring the accent from Potc, the clothing he had in From Hell, and the hair from Edward Scissorhands (with skin color from Sleepy Hollow, while Helena Bonham Carter clearly shot this simultaneously with her role as Bellatrix "Batshit Insane" Lestrange, which is easy because I swear it's all shot in Diagon Alley.

Still...

I'm SO excited. Alan Rickman (can he sing? Honestly, the way he talks, they could dub in some singing and I probably wouldn't mind too much). Although it might bug me that Wormtail is Beadle Bamford (see what I mean? Clearly, Fleet Street is somewhere in Knockturn Alley!!!)

There's a YouTube fan trailer that is: a) has singing and b) takes large advantage of the costuming and setting similarities I mentioned above.
