Yes, I am. Depp has proven to be an extremely versatile actor with the ability express appropriate personality quirks.

Definitely. Being a Tim Burton fan, I'm wired to look forward to any movie of his. Full disclosure: I have not seen a single episode of the original series. Having said that, I do know that the movie is much more of a comedy. So long as the film is actually funny, I have no problem with that. I'm not one of those people that gets upset when a source material is heavily altered for film adaptations.

Yes. I liked the trailer -- a Vampire comedy, who would have thought?

Absolutely yes!! Depp is an actor who is never afraid to play a role - serious, bizarre, comical, it makes no difference to him; this is what makes him tick and this is why he is such a brilliant actor. I admit there have been some Depp movies I didn't like at all, but his performance was brilliant in itself regardless. He is an actor who has never been afraid to be different. I believe he is the perfect choice to play Collins as he will put a bit of himself into the role to make it unique.
