"You're in a merry mood today, Mr. Todd."
Hokay, Squeem, here's what I could find on Youtube! For some reason a lot of the film clips have the speaking parts in French, but the songs in English. I'll provide translation where memory serves.
WARNING: Spoilers. This is also a pretty bloody movie, as well as being a bloody pretty movie from time to time. If you can't take violence on the level of, say, Kill Bill (that is, highly graphic but incredibly exaggerated), I'll recommend you skip a few of these clips.
EDIT: Frick, I forgot the opening credits! BAD NANO. Fixed now.
Opening Credits
So pretty! And Rustmonkey-esque! And ominous!
Opening Scene - No Place Like London
This will remain stuck in my head for all of time.
Anthony asks, "Is everything all right, Mister Todd?"
Sweeney answers, "I beg your indulgence, Anthony. My mind is far from easy. In these once familiar streets I feel...shadows...everywhere..."
Later it's "And the lady, sir? Did she succumb?"
And at the end, Sweeney says, "I'd like to thank you, Anthony. If you hadn't spotted me, I'd be lost on the ocean still."
"May I see you again?"
"You might find me, if you like. 'Round Fleet Street, I shouldn't wonder."
"Until then, my friend!" says Anthony, and is totally ignored. Hah hah.
The Worst Pies in London
This whole song is hilarious, but I do not recommend watching it if you plan to eat meat pies any time soon.
Unfortunately there aren't any decent videos for "Poor Thing", so here's the song from the soundtrack!
My Friends
Love song. To his razors. Yeah, Mrs. Lovett, you're on to a real winner there.
Johanna
Oh, Anthony. Being dorky stalker boy is not the way.
Pirelli's Miracle Elixir
It's Toby in his ridiculous wig! And Borat in his ridiculous costume!
The Contest
In which Pirelli is pwned.
Pirelli's Death
In which Pirelli is pwned in a different way, but it's in French for some reason so you can't really pick when he goes from his wonderful dreadful Italian accent to actually acting. Sadface. Also includes vicious kettle bludgeoning and lots of blood.
Pretty Women
Snape kills Dumbledore! I mean Dumbledore kills Snape. I mean - well, nobody kills anybody, but it's in French! And it has Snape!
Halfway through the Judge says, "And pretty as a rosebud."
Sayeth Sweeney, "Pretty as her mother?"
"What was that?"
"Nothing, sir. Nothing."
Epiphany
This is just incredibly insane and fantastic. Everything Sweeney says is a variation on "I HAD HIM AND NOW HE'S GONE RARRGH"
A Little Priest
Also hilarious and liable to put off your pie. I like how long it takes Sweeney to realise what she's getting at.
God, That's Good!
You'll want to turn your speakers up for this one, the sound quality is meh.
Johanna (Reprise)
Anthony being dweeby and oblivious, Sweeney gradually going crazier than he already is, and murders. Lots of murders. Just a long string of them all in a row.
By the Sea
It's funny how the most beautiful part of the movie is the bit where you're saying, "Oh, Mrs. Lovett, don’t - Jesus God, this won't end well," the loudest. Well, if you can get it out in between the giggling.
Not While I'm Around
...Oh, Toby, you poor kid.
Final Scene Part One
Interestingly, contains probably the most violent murder out of the whole movie as well the least violent. The quickest and cleanest, at any rate. Note also, Johanna briefly not being a doormat. Good try, guys, I hope to see some improvement in future!
Final Scene Part Two
Includes BURNING TO DEATH WITH BLOODCURDLING SCREAMS, and horrible painful tragedy.
Also, here is a fic rec!
Rats Gone Home to Jesus
A handful of vignettes portraying various characters from Mrs. Lovett to Benjamin Barker to Johanna to those entirely unexpected. Very creepy and well-characterized.
And some arhts!
Rebirth
It took me a moment to work out just what this picture was actually about, and then I went, "Ooh," which is always a sign of quality. Now I'm surprised nobody else has done something like this.
And there's this series of pictures, which are sort of halfway between cute and disturbing.
Enjoy! And now I MUST GO PACK AUGH

But I did look at all of the arts, and they are all awesome. I think I laughed for, like, a minute at Sweeney Todd and Captain Jack Sparrow passing each other on the water, hee hee hee. Also the Edward Scissorhands: Rival Barber!, since Baco and I had just discussed the possibility of Sweeney Razorfingers, due to my misinterpretation of, "At last, my arm is complete again!"
It's extremely hard for me to resist the temptation to watch the opening sequence again. STUPID HOMEWORK.
I did watch "By the Sea," though, and thought it was hilarious and awesome, even if I couldn't understand half the things that were said. But Sweeney Todd! Glowering! I wonder how long it took to film those sequences.

And! WHEN ARE YOU LEAVING I HOPE PACKING GOES WELL!!! *encouragement*

I don't think I'll ever get tired of jokes about characters who are played by the same person meeting and being weirded out. And now you made me go rewatch Edward Scissorhands to remind myself how great it was! Man, Johnny Depp is a hell of an actor. I mean, you've got Captain Jack Sparrow, drunkenly swaggering, and then you've got Edward being silently terrified/filled with wonder at things, and you've got Sweeney, all made up of rage. (To that end, look! More arts! I love the expressions in this.)
Sweeney Razorfingers? ...Huh. Interesting mental image. Man, now I'm picturing Sweeney as Edward gone bad, which is rather upsetting. Or his evil counterpart or something.
Yay for glowering! Yay for further watching!
I AM LEAVING WEDNESDAY AND I'VE FINALLY SORTED OUT HOUSECRAZY. Happyface! My course orientation happens on Thursday! I'M SO EXCITED.

I will reply properly once homeworkcrazy is done! ...which will probably be a few days from now.
You gotta post about it once you have time! And by "it" I mean QANTM and housecrazy and everything!
EEEEEEE!
