    Dark Shadows Trailer Is (and Isn't) What You Expected

    UPDATE: Its officially up with embed below courtesy of The Daily Blam!

    The trailer for Dark Shadows will officially drop tonight at midnight. But not one to lose sleep waiting to see footage from another Tim Burton/Johnny Depp collaboration unveiled, Ellen DeGeneres got to premiere said trailer on her talk-show this afternoon, and being the Internet as it is, footage from the broadcast has made its way online for your viewing pleasure:

    For all the smack talk, yours truly has laid down, I have to tip my hat. This isn't the tone anyone expected. A tongue-in-cheek Burton, though keeping the typical gothic production designs, and a less-than-oddball Johnny Depp. Arguably the straight he's played a role with Burton since 1999's Sleepy Hollow.

    My cynicism hasn't been chipped off completely though, and one finds it strange Warner Brothers waited this late in the game to present footage (The film opens May 11). But, to their credit, I'm not ready to write Dark Shadows off either.
