LOVED Sweeney Todd!!! Was anyone else surprised Johnny depp can sing? Quite well if I do say so myself. I like Helena Bonham-Carter’s voice too.

The group picture is great! Sparrow, Snape, Wormtail and Bella, with that crazy man Burton. The movie was fantastic, but not for the squeemish. And so tragic.

Hahaha I missed the comma and thought it said “the always dashing Alan Rickman ravishing Helena Bonham Carter”...

... he can ravish me any day XD

Oh and ‘muahaha’- he’s in his 60s!! No other 61 year old I know of looks that good. No other 61 year old I know of has teenagers drooling over him!

I noticed that I’ve never heard the kids (well I guess they’re not kids anymore) mention Rickman in interviews. I’ve heard Dan R. wax eloquent about how Gary Oldman mentored him, and heard them talk about Staunton and others as being generous with their talent and advice. But never a word about Rickman. Did I just miss it, or is there more to this?

I thought BonhamCarter almost stole the movie in OOTP. She was incredible.

The sweet young things go to the HP movies to see Radcliffe, but this movie series has been a lot of fun for us oldsters too, getting to see Oldman and Smith and all our favorite “oldies”.

Helena’s dress looks really uncomfortable and she looks uncomfortable in it. The fact that she managed to get dressed at all after just having a baby is pretty remarkable though. Hope she enjoyed her night out.

i agree with whoever said Johnny Depp is getting younger, he is to HOT for words, the most gorgous person on earth, and Helena is absolutely beautiful in that red dress. Sweney Todd is an amazing movie eveyone should see it.

Thank you Becca, that was nicely put. Much nicer than I would have handled it! So shut up about Alans age for gods sake, he is an extemely handsome man, some people in their 40’s already have grey hair big woop! And yes I am one of his fangirls that drools over him as Snape- and his sexy voice!

Well, Great pics…will have to check out the movie. Not a fan of the red dress myself…looks like a bolt of red fabric gone crazy. But the woman herself is beautiful. And there will always be something “Captain Jackish” about Johnny now…because I love him! (and I am 35…well past the time when loving Captain Jack is acceptable!) It is so hard to believe the difference between Mr. Rickman and his alter ego Snape. I LOVE him as Snape. Anyhow…great photos!

The top part of Helena’s dress looks like it’s about to fall down! She’s still beautiful though. I can’t wait for the next hp movie!
