Movies: Promo shots of Tim Burton's Dark Shadows Never heard of either the original or this remake up until now, but I do like Tim Burton's eye for colour and composition. Regarding the genre, a "gothic soap opera" sounds awesome, but maybe that's why I'm an anime fan -- that kind of genre is commonplace for us.
Movies: Tokyo International

I am loving the 'speed of light' story; very exciting, all very dramatic. XD

I thought you might find this story interesting.

Well... most scientists seem unconvinced. I read a good post on the subject here: http://scienceblogs.com/startswithabang/2011/09/this_extraordinary_claim_requi.php At least, I think it's a good post. Don't really know enough to be sure!

That's an interesting story. Scary how much she looks like her mother though...!

Not quite ready to cross out another chunk of coursework, as the margins of error are so minute. But I do think it's time to get back to all those "what's the difference between history and science" essays I did for Oxbridge entry, because science is evidently not as "factual" as people once thought.

Most of the scientists seem to be in agreement on this though -- the results are an anomaly and impossible to replicate. That's even according to the people that logged the results in the first place!

I grew up on Dark Shadow's re-runs. It was one of my favourites as a child. I still watch it from time to time now, but mainly the episodes after Jonathan Frid (Barnabas) joined the cast. If you have the time, it's definitely worth a watch.

It is something I would like to see, yes. I wonder if it even aired on British TV though...

I'm a looooong time Dark Shadows fan. I used to run home from school to watch it as it aired on afternoon TV. I wasn't so sure I'd like the movie version, but the cast looks very interesting. Helena Bonham Carter, Jonny Lee Miller and Jackie Earle Haley look very well cast, IMO.

I think the right lighting and direction can make anything well-cast. Having said that, I'd never heard of it up until now. Sounds exactly like my kind of thing though. I'm thinking it never made it to Britain though.
