He hates every Batman (even The Dark Knight), Bettlejuice, Edward Scissorhands, Sleepy Hollow, Big Fish and Alice in Wonderland. And likes Mars Attack and Plant of the Apes. So he hates Burton and Depp<br />2. He loves Christoph Waltz. (angry voice) That's his only reason! he loved Inglourious Basterds and Django Unchained.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00059813680559966539noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4784665635104956142.post-16394021454669551262015-01-10T14:07:25.330-05:002015-01-10T14:07:25.330-05:00Please review the film, because there are the scre...Please review the film, because there are the screenwriters of Ed Wood, The People vs. Larry Flynt and Man on the Moon, the music writer Danny Elfman and I heard that this is Burton's best film since Big Fish because he took other direction then he does usually.

I first saw Batman (which blow my mind as a kid), Batman Returns(still great), Charlie and the Chocolate Factory (good before to see Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory, now Eh), Alice in Wonderland (Which I liked...), Dark Shadows (redeemed by Michelle Pfeiffer and the cinematoghraphy) and then I read your Post. Masterful post. And I saw Big Fish(awesome), Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street (a fine Johnny Deep performance and a great score), Bettlejuice (best horror comedy ever made), Ed Wood (I cried a lot, I laugh a lot; my favorite), Sleepy Hollow (cinematoghraphy was great, at the first time the film was just good, but now for my is great) and Frankenweenie(which is great, but not like The Nightmare Before Christmas). I still need to see Pee-wee’s Big Adventure, Mars Attacks!, Corpse Bride, Big Eyes and Edward Scissorhands(!). You recommend to see this films?<br /><br />I will never see Planet of the Apes(remake), I first saw a few minutes and then I turned off the TV. My father LOVES this piece of shit, and hates the others Burton's films (good or bad) because of Johnny Deep and the fact this are Fantasy fims.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00059813680559966539noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4784665635104956142.post-32534063317373324412014-08-03T01:50:51.752-04:002014-08-03T01:50:51.752-04:00Or you could write about movies where Burton writt...Or you could write about movies where Burton written the screenplay.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4784665635104956142.post-44331717673075599862014-07-24T18:23:47.613-04:002014-07-24T18:23:47.613-04:00That sounds like a great idea for a film.
