The jewelry is beautiful. The dress I would wear. The article? Too short.
The article did a wonderful job of explaining some of the small trinkets we can begin to expect with the upcoming film, but failed to actually make me want to see the film that inspired these beautiful pieces of jewelry. Had I written the article, I would have loved to include some of the cheaper pieces that won't make the average teenager or college student (No doubt a majority of the people going to see this film, as they're the ones who grew up on Tim Burton) cry or starve for a week. Further, I'd like to see more locations on where to acquire the jewelry once it's been mass-produced - it's no good knowing it exists if you don't know where you can buy it.

How well did you like Cadbury Eggs?
http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/business/8466829.stm
So, Kraft, the company that owns such food products like Mayonaise and Oreos, is now attempting to buy Cadbury, the confectionery company that produces Cadbury eggs.
The article is disappointing, focusing on the numbers of the trade but not discussing the impact that such a purchase might have. It mentions a loss to Cadbury's workforce, but doesn't explain why such a loss might occur, nor give us any real rough estimate of what that loss might entail. Further, it doesn't mention any competitor offers and waits until the second to last paragraph prior to the Job impact to even state there ARE competitors.
Overall, I feel this article wasn't worth the Headline space it received, and could have been tagged onto a previous article about the same topic without any real loss to the readers.
