If you fail at being yourself, you can always mold yourself into being some kind of hybrid otaku/Tim Burton nightmare.

This still sucks ass! I hate you Tim Burton!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I know Kevin Smith isn't the best film maker...but even he couldn't have come up with anything that bad. It takes a real Tim Burton kind of an asshat to ruin Superman. Also Nightmare Before Christmas ain't that great.

It's real and genuine and I had the same reaction. It's totally out of place, but we are talking about Tim Burton here.

It's all over the movie websites at the moment (for this video) and it first came up a while ago when an image was released (search Google Images for "tim burton superman lives").

huh?
What's the source on this? It really just doesn't make any sense whatsoever in terms of a superman suit. Bad guy from the movie maybe, but it just doesn't seem to make sense. It almost feels like some random video of a light suit was uncovered and someone just decided to post it on youtube with speculative info of what it was...

Thanks mate! It's a Tim Burton drawing, I loved it when I saw it

For all you Lost fans, here’s another metaphysical jungle tale to your possible rescue (it will also suck up about 120 less hours of your life). It’s this year’s winner of the Palme d’Or at Cannes, Apichatpong Weerasethakul‘s Uncle Boonmee Who Can Recall His Past Lives.

Here’s this year’s jury head, Tim Burton, on the film:

“I liked it because it is a movie that you normally don’t see, not Western, with fantasy elements done in a way I have never seen before. It is a beautiful strange dream. It has a quiet reflective nature, full of surprises.”

Surprises, indeed! One of those past lives of Uncle Boonmee apparently features him as a catfish who makes love to a princess in a blue lagoon by wiggling his tale. Let’s see ya try that one!

I thought it was great. /shrug


That's why you clean pools for a living.

I really disliked this film. Terrible storytelling, weak characters, and an over reliance on CGI. It's the George Lucas Phantom Menace syndrome: Give a director a $200,000,000 budget, and they spend all their time figuring out how to spend all that money, rather than focussing on creating a worthwhile piece of art.

Johnny Depp's Mad hatter, whom gets almost as much screen time as the bland lead, consists of drag queen make up and an effeminate voice, which occasionally shifts to a Braveheart brogue. It comes across more as self indulgent mugging from an actor who has received no directorial guidance than any kind of actual insanity.

In Burton's earlier years, when his budgets were a fraction of what they are now, he told truly imaginative stories, with great characters and heartfelt performances. Movies like Beetlejuice, Edward Scissorhands, Ed Wood and The Nightmare Before Christmas were cinematic masterpieces in my opinion.

The scene above is the precise moment when my disappointment turned to contempt. Issy and I actually turned to each other in the theater to verify that it was not a hallucination. (/disappointed fan-boy rant)

If you are reading this Tim Burton, here's your assignment, should you decide to take it:

Make a film for under 10 million dollars. You are not allowed to use your wife or Johnny Depp as cast members. The script must be original and not an adaptation of some previously existing work. Use models, stop motion, or whatever other effects you like, but keep the CGI to a bare minimum.

I don't know what the film was like, but i can't take any more tim burton/depp/bonham-carter films. Really just can't take it, if you know what i mean?

Like if someone gave you a nice bacon and egg fry-up. You love the first one, but then he gives you another. Well you can probably manage another and it's tasty. And then he gives you another. Aaaand another. And each successive one you're thinking "buh, this is too much." And eventually as nice as the meal was originally, the taste hasn't changed but you can't take anymore. Then he shoves another one in front of you and you know there's absolutely no way you can eat it.

It's like that.

This metaphor may be wasted on americans. *cough*

Saw this in theaters over the weekend. I actually recoiled at this point in the film; not for any base discomfort at seeing someone's head spin around, but for realizing what Tim Burton managed to do simultaneously to Johnny Depp and the Mad Hatter.

... not to mention Tim Burton. When was the last time he directed a decent movie? Beetle Juice? They're all starting to look the same to me.


I thought Batman, Edward Scissorhands and Big Fish were quite good. He tends to put a bit too much weight on the style (vs the plot/script), though.
