I put it and Pee-Wee's Big Adventure tied as my two favourite Burton films. As pretty as the rest are, none of his other efforts even come close to those two. Although I must admit a bit of a soft spot for Edward Scissorhands too.<br /><br />There, I've said it.

The problem with some of his later films like Planet of the Apes and Charlie and the Chocolate Factory is that I don't really feel any emotional connection. Which I still do to Pee Wee Herman's Big Adventure, even if it's a silly film. Also, I think CGI has made his films less appealing.Jasonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01541863702465505291noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5789524189763910172.post-20156573427812892642010-12-09T07:09:57.464-08:002010-12-09T07:09:57.464-08:00I like Beetlejuice.

And, by the way, did you know that Betelgeuse is the name of one of the stars in the constellation Orion's Belt? <br /><br />Alice in Wonderland isn't that great, really. It has potensial, but it seems like Burton is just rushing to get the story told, rather than letting the actors and actresses have fun and play around with their characters. As always, the scenography and the costumes are great and colorful and extraordinary, but to me the characters don't get the space they deserve. And the main character gets too boring.<br />It's pretty much too Hollywood-ish. <br /><br />I agree that Mars Attacks was probably his worst movie.Ingahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14796018450387400403noreply@blogger.com
