Dark shadows was so damn awful, wtf burton

I heard it was just plain boring, which is crazy because at least Burton could have made it campy bad rather than just bad-bad.

it was just... like you could tell tim burton broke out a list of 'things that should be in a tim burton movie, always' and there it was (including a christopher lee cameo). it tried to be somewhat serious yet funny but overall really cheesy and just... ugh. but yes, as the other person mentioned, it was boring as fuck, as well. like this entire thing happened because a really powerful witch who could do/have anything in the world had a crush on some guy she couldn't get over? for CENTURIES? really?

tim burton still keeps trying to gothic/campy genre he's molded so well for decades now, but it just feels really dated; it worked in the 90s, but not so much now.

i wish he made more movies like sweeney todd; dark/gothicish, sure, but with more malice than campiness

idk what these ppl are even talking about tbh! i thought it was good. not like WOW AMAZING MOVIE, or anything. but Johnny was actually charming, Helena managed to NOT annoy me [probably had something to do with her not doing a british accent and not having crazy hair]. it was definitely one of the more enjoyable Burton films

also, it was funny as shit

It was even worse than what I was expecting, ia.

it was one of the least insufferable Burton movies imo

i quite enjoyed it and thought it was rather funny

I watched the Avengers for the 3rd time on Friday night <3

me too , bb :D
<3

best way to spend a friday night :)))

ONTDERS IN LONDON, ENGLAND.

DO YOU WANT TO GO SEE THE AVENGERS AS A GROUP. SO FAR I HAVE ONE PERSON WHO HAS AGREED.

LET US BUILD ON THIS PLZ.

Third time lucky? :/

Man if I was in London and not Cardiff I would be on it, but sadly I will probs be rocking up to Cineworld alone since I'm the only one out of my friends who's finished exams.

edited for clarity because I'm an idiot. Great first comment, thankshalott.

I got what you meant! Aw man such a shame, I have a Cineworld Unlimited card and everything :( I really figured it would be easier to find ONTDers from London! Though I suppose Londoners are notoriously wary of strangers so maybe I'm barking up the wrong tree :(

I'm in London but I leave for Manchester tomorrow.

I would so be in otherwise. :(

i would be so up for this if i wasnt in Manchester! Argh. damn it, why is London so far away.

Aww, but im no where near London. I am Yorkshire.

And my Cineworld card isn't a london usable one. (I already used it7 times alone on Avengers, my monthly fee this month was well covered! :(

My friend ditched me last night so I still haven't seen the Avengers. I might see if someone will go with me on cheap Tuesday.

But i'm watching We Bought A Zoo right now and it's adorable.

Go see it by yourself?

Normally I would but this is a movie I want to have someone to geek out with :(

i stayed after work yesterday to watch dark shadows and it kinda sucked...definitely not a movie for kids but there were so many in there and i was loling
