Critics Club 34: Burton

[Neon Ignition]

Marching ever onward, we reach the ever kooky styled Tim Burton next. We know he loves his kooky aesthetics, we know he loves his wife Helena Bonham Carter and we know he loves Johnny Depp maybe even more than both...

... but do we know the best directorial work Burton has accomplished to date? Which will it be?

[originalbadboy]

Scissorhands I would say ...

[Neon Ignition]

Gone Batman, he certainly peaked early on but out of those inital films Batman accomplished a lot for its time

[CMcK]

Batman Returns for me. The black and white style with the odd splash of colour is stunning. Probably had some of the best camera work in his career too.

Batman...

Youuuu are my number ewwaaaan AGGUUUYYYY!!!

[bash]

I think he peaked with sleepy hollow tbh. It was right up his street, great cast and performances, action and humour.

Batman is easily my most liked, and I always want to watch it again, but I had to vote for Big Fish as it is just so powerful and effective. I will probably never watch it again. Glancing down the list he has only done the two films that weren't fantasy? I have never seen Ed Wood.
