God I hope this is just a momentary look for him and not the whole film. I've been really looking forward to this one and I found Alice in Wonderland very disappointing (only slightly better than Planet of the Apes imo), so hopefully DS is less Alice and more Sweeney

I agree, when I saw that photo for the first time i was thinking "no, this is not good, I hope its not going to be another Alice in wonderland.." (Which is kind of sad because I love Tim Burton movies..) I wanted it to look more like Sleepy hollow..:( I was hoping that Tim knows that (that Alice was a little "over the top" and that his older films were better), but now im affraid that this is just his new style and we cant do anything about it.. But its not official picture, we must wait for something official to know what its really going to look like.. (Sorry for my english, I hope you understand:)

Johnny looks a little too Michael Jackson for my liking. I wanted more gothic...

I am a longtime fan of Tim Burton and his work, but I must say I HATE the way Johnny is made up as Barnabas. He looks like the love child of the Joker. And I don't think diehard fans of Dark Shadows and Barnabas Collins will be thrilled either. I've been looking forward to this film for years now, hoping Burton would really showcase Dark Shadows with amazing gothic imagery along the lines of Sleepy Hollow. The way Depp looks in this photo makes me think Mr. Burton is filming Alice in Wonderland meets The Joker. So disappointed. Please change this look for Barnabas.

Well, I'm still excited for the movie, but does, uh...does he look like a pimp version of Willy Wonka to anyone else?

GUYS GUYS. Please, let's not judge so harshly. These are pictures taken while filming, not promo pictures. Perhaps the makeup just looks like this because he's in the complete sun and whatnot....They haven't edited the movie, maybe it'll look different on-screen. Let's just wait.

Yeah, the movie isn't even done yet, give it some time. No one will actually know what the movie will be like until it finally comes out or they release more pictures. I still have hope for it.

Since Burton is my favorite filmmaker. I'm really excited about this!!! I think all of his movies are brilliant and I love his interpretation of a vampire.

There was an official photo released with the cast and Johnny did not look as over the top.
