The trailer is finally here:
Dark Shadows - Movie Trailers - iTunes
I'm not too familiar with the original material for this, but I imagine it has less fish-out-of-water jokes.
I guess it looks entertaining enough - again, not knowing much about the original - I'm glad Burton is back to creepy/funny stuff, cuz I think that's what he's best at.

Trailer almost makes it play like a comedy...Uh oh....

Almost? It look hilarious...

The original was unintentionally campy so I guess it's got a good pedigree

That was wrong on so many levels.
Read my blog at Moongem Comics about comics, toys and more.
Wow. I wasn't expecting THAT.
On it's own, it looks fun, but I have a feeling the faithful are going to be TICKED.

I was hoping for something a bit more serious to show the Twilighters (my daughter included) what a "real" vampire is but oh, well...This might not be that bad after all.
I'm digging the 70s vibe it has going on and maybe this is the right direction, who knows.
I'm still seeing it no matter what...

Burton always uses humour and I think the trailer highlighted that. I doubt it'll be as light as it seems.
Having said that, as a fan of the original series, it made me smile. I look forward to it.

I know you are a big fan, I'm glad you aren't bitterly disappointed. It made me laugh.
Remakes can never take away what was, so I'm rather zen about them in the first place.
Nobody hears "frankenstein" and thinks Robert Deniro!
