Alice In Wonderland
Im no Tim Burton fan, but these early renderings look pretty damn cool.
i love the Dark Alice in Wonderland interpretations. Like the PC game for example. Hopefully this doesn't disappoint. http://www.comingsoon.net/news/movienews.php?id=56475 |

I'm a Burton fan, but he really hasn't done anything good since before Sleepy Hollow. Man, he's picked some horrible scripts. I'll see this one, just like I've seen all the others, hoping that he's finally righted the ship. |

I actually liked Sweeney Todd.
May I have my man card back, please?

I thought it was OK, but not up to snuff considering Edward Scissorhands, Beetlejuice, Batman and Ed Wood. Even his early stuff like Frankenweenie and Pee Wee's Big Adventure were solid directorial/script efforts.

I had no idea he did Frankenweenie. That's awesome.

Good: Beetlejuice, Batman, Edward Scissorhands, Big Fish, Bad: Frakenweenie, Pee Wee's big adventure, Mars Attacks, Planet of the Apes, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, Corpse Bride, Sweeney Todd. Average: Batman Returns, Ed Wood, Sleepy Hollow. He is hit or miss.. I tried enjoying Sweeney Todd but there was just something missing, no idea why it got any awards(Repo, a Genetic Opera I like for some reason though).. Corpse Bride was just a let down after Nightmare before Christmas for me.. I think Big Fish is his best work.. |

Very good: Ed Wood, Edward Scissorhands, Beetlejuice, Pee Wee's Big Adventure Ed Wood and Edward Scissorhands are Burton's most critically acclaimed works to date, with landmark performances from Johnny Depp anchoring both films. And like the character or not (I don't), Pee Wee's Big Adventure has amassed an enormous cult following from a sublimely bizarre comedy that was masterfully crafted, especially for a feature film debut. Good: Batman, Big Fish, Vincent, Frankenweenie Mediocre: Mars Attacks, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, Sweeney Todd, Sleepy Hollow Bad: Planet of the Apes, Corpse Bride I'll agree he's kinda hit or miss, but most of his films hit that average to above average range. The problem, I think, is he was a shooting star for the first part of his career and fizzled from Sleepy Hollow, occasionally turning in just horrible efforts. I mean... WTF was he thinking with Planet of the Apes? |

Ed WOod might be his best film. Criminally overlooked.

Im gonna go ahead and say i like the remake of Charlie better than the original. The original wasn't bad, I enjoyed it very much growing up, but Burtons was much more faithful to Roald Dahl. . |

Heck, i like all his movies up to Sleepy Hollow. After that, hes turned into more of a director for hire and has been spotty. |

Ah, I'd forgotten Charlie And The Chocolate Factory. That movie was bullshit. Incredibly stupid interpretation of the story.
