I have two words for this sick Twist.

“Corpse Bride”

Insofar as he is one of the main architects of Hollywood’s decline from a dream factory into a purveyor of (in his case literal) nightmares — he deserves endless misery in this life, and judgment in the next.

Interesting. His films are usually a bit out there for me but he certainly has a very creative mind. Edward Scissorhands was pretty brilliant, though…especially with Danny Elfman’s musical work.

I think he’s brilliant and have enjoyed every movie he has produced. He is the Edward Gorey/Chas. Addams of film.

He has a point though. Not much positive on the net anymore. And soon they will make sure the “human” element is completely gone and it is nothing but storefronts and commercial space. They are killing it right in front of our eyes.

How can you date Monica Bellucci and be depressed?

If might be depressing if the little soldier doesn’t stand at attention anymore.

I can say I have never, by choice, seen any of his movies. However, any guy that can land Monica Bellucci has my admiration.

Tim Burton doesn’t like the real world, much less a bigger window into both the larger world and fiction he disagrees with.

Corpse Bride isn’t a nightmare. It’s a romantic comedy. That just happens to have dead characters. It’s kind of slow, but nightmarishly slow.

I disagree. There's not much on TV and from Hollywood. The internet is much more easily what one makes of it.

I'm think it's that, that Tim doesn't like.

You have a point there.

If I was dating that lady I would be quite happy.
