Hokay, so. Sweeney Todd.
I went to see it again last night, and dragged along my sketchbook. My original plan was to do some sketchies in the theatre, but this fell to pieces. Instead, I made a big long list of
Stufftodraw:
*"Popping pussies into pies" --in the style of "A Little Priest". With whores. Shh, it's just a dirty joke, move along...
*Maybe Mrs Lovett would do better if she didn't give gin to every stranger who walked in --more snark than something to draw, really.
*Lucy/Lovett slash, yep --This is ShadowKev's fault. I mentioned to him at movie night that you couldn't much slash Sweeney Todd, and he pointed out that you could slash these two.
*"Nothing to be afraid of, love" as they walk into the barbershop (except for the evil Spittack) --...I...think I meant spider attack woman thing. I think. I can't read this one very well, as the handwritings garbage.
*Handles would not be that polished if they were silver --drabble Lovett obsessively cleaning them while waiting for Mr. T to return to her
*Drabble "Green Finch" intro with revival cast --teaching Tobi to make music. --Yeah, if you haven't seen the revival, this one is probably meaningless.
*I think there's been some mistake --I'm gay! (Antony's refusal to see whorepics with the judge) --Okay, so it's not *very* slashable. >>
*Orin/Todd tooth-pulling contest!!!!!! --No, seriously.
See, in the original musical version of Sweeney Todd, Todd and Pirelli pulled teeth as well as shaving people for the contest. Because barbers pulled teeth and whatnot. I've never gotten to see the tooth-pulling done, since it's not in the revival version or the movie. This Makes Me Sad. (It also means I've never gotten to see Pirelli slap around Tobi just to make his mouth hurt, which is also sad)
So, who would win if Sweeney Todd was to get into a tooth-pulling contest with Orin Scrivello D.D.S (from Little Shop of Horrors)? And just how awesome would it be?
*Davy Pirelli/Todd slash, maybe "I remember you Mr. Barker" (spurned love) --Okay, so I was kinda watching it with the slash goggles on full force this time. Shush.
*The damn poet looks like an early Doctor. Do something with this. --Seriously. I don't know which Doctor he reminds me of, beyond "Not Ecclston or Tennant", but he so reminds me of The Doctor.
This may just be my brain telling me to re-write Sweeney Who.
*"I will leave this place" -I like spunky Johanna
also
*"So we run away and all our dreams come true?" Johanna is so cynical! --I like me some cynical bitter Johanna. Dunno why, really.
*Mock the chair making scene -so dramatic for something so simple. --I have made...A CHAIR! *lightning and thundercrash!*
*Mock where Antony looks for Johanna, meat market, graveyard, hooka bar, etc. --Seriously boy, where do you THINK she's been hidden away?
*Tobi Kite! =) (Lets go fly a kite?) -- At the beginning of 'By the Sea', Tobi can be seen in the background. It was only this time around that I noticed he was flying a kite, which was awesome.
Also, I finally figured it out: Tim Burton used up his entire budget for colour doing that scene, which is why the rest of the movie is so dour.
*OHMAN! Nellie Lovett vs Mary Poppins would be INTENSELY AWESOME! --Sorry, I really like Mary Poppins, for no real reason. This was obviously influenced by the "Lets Go Fly a Kite" comment I had just made.
*Me rumpled bedding legitimized pr0n in 'By the Sea' style with Todd NOT CARING he's getting sexed up by Helena Bonham Carter --Yeah, alright. Granted, I don't know how to draw pr0n, and I'm really not good enough with expressions to do this one, but would it not be an awesome picture?
*We could have a life too. Maybe not like I'd dreamed. Maybe not like you'd remembered --I just scrawled it down because it's a good quote, I don't think I had any pictures I intended for it.
*Either Tobi is tall or Nellie is short in "Nothings gonna harm you" --just an observation
*Like father, like daughter! When Johanna picks up the razor --ohman, writing a crazy Johanna would be SO SWEET! And she kills people! It'd be awesome.
Also, guest-comment from
madamluna: Sweeney Todd, starring: Johnny Depp and Helena Bonham Carter's Breasts!

These notes are, of course, mainly for my own use, but if you see something you desperately want me to do and soon, let me know.

MOOP!

i am thinking that Rtizy is plotting to make me watch quite a few things when she comes in October, so if i haven't seen it by then, she'll make me watch it and then bake me in a pie!

on 2008-01-15 02:14 am (UTC)That's no normal chair! That's Sweeney's RAPE THRONE. He had to make it himself because it's very hard for you to order RAPE THRONES!
And yeah, I take back my earlier comment, since I checked ff.net (because I make bad decisions) and people are writing Todd/Anthony rape fic. TODD/PIRELLI IS NOT FAR OFF although we all know the King of Todd Slash is clearly Stage Sweeney/Movie Sweeney.
