My least favorite movie with T+J is actually Scissorhands. Helena is the only one who can rap... Depp, you better talk, and the AR part made me laugh to death, but the movement from squatting to getting up to stretch the razor is still amazing. Anthony's two big die really want to knock him

Sweeney Todd: [singing] Alright! You, sir? How about a shave? Come and visit your good friend Sweeney! You sir! Too, sir. Welcome to the grave... I will have vengeance. I will have salvation... Who, sir? You sir!No one's in the chair. Come on, come on! Sweeney's waiting. I want you bleeders. You sir? Anybody? Gentlemen, now don't be shy. Not one man... No, nor ten men... Nor a hundred can assuage me. I will have you! And I will get him back even as he gloats; In the meantime I'll practice on less honorable throats... And my Lucy lies in ashes, and I'll never see my girl again. But the work waits! I'm alive at last, and I'm full of joy!
