Don't forget to mention Alan Rickman, another awesome actor.

Tim Burton brings such a wicked surreal style to his musicals and the singing never seems out of place. I can only think of four other live action movie musicals that I can stomach and they are Colma: The Musical (a really cool movie made by a bunch of kids and produced with very little money. It's rough around the edges but fresh as hell). Reefer Madness: The Musical, Dancer in the Dark, and John Cameron Mitchell's Hedwig and the Angry Inch.
Sweeny Todd was the only musical I could stomach, Little Shop of Horrors not quite counting as a musical.

According to Depp he was very hard working and the like. Ali G and Borat are mere characters, the man himself is a fine actor and im interested to see him in his role.

He must be a great actor to fool real people into believing he is these characters. I was just a little taken back to see him in a film version of a Broadway Musical. This should be interesting.

Did you guy's read the interview with Colleen Atwood (the Costume Designer). The whole thing was about what kind of fake package to put in his tights.

I started post a few posts below on how I wasn't thrilled with this movie. I do like some of the songs, I love Alan Rickman and Johnny Depp but was a bit bored in parts. Sasha's character was very funny and the bulge was hilarious.
