    Tim Burton seems so nice and friendly and down to earth.

    He has such a beautiful mind. In class, we studied his techniques and I basically could teach about him. If I could have a world of my own, it would definatly be a mix of Tim Burton, Edgar Allan Poe, and Stephen King. My greatest inspiration is Tim Burton, and it would be amazing if I could meet him. And in a way, he helped me see that no one is actually different, we each just have likes and dislikes, and shouldn't be catigorized or put in groups or cliques specifically for that. If you think differently, everyone thinks your dark and Tim Burton isn't dark. He just sees beauty in things that are a bit broken, and misunderstood because they have a story to them. To me, nothing is beautiful unless it's a bit broken. Then it has value. Because it has a story to it.

    When he says that people can notice if a movie is a Tim Burton movie, I agree. But when I notice, it's not a bad thing. I love Tim Burton so much and he has his own sense of creepy, odd style that I love so much. When I saw the commercial for the 2012 Frankenweenie, I knew right away that it was a Tim Burton film because it had the touch of darkness and extreme creativity that I have never seen anyone show except for Tim Burton. He is truly a one of a kind person.

    I love the fact that, as Tim Burton has matured, he definitely is a lot more articulate than he used to be. He was always interesting and a creative director, but now he seems more at ease with himself and with expressing his opinions. To my mind though, the older he gets, the more he sounds like Woody Allen :D I particularly relate to what he said about 'phases' in life...sometimes I feel I know less now than I did at fifteen.

    Say what you will about his movies, but I really, really like Tim Burton as a person and an artist. There's no ego with him whatsoever, he "gets" the twisted logic of show business and Hollywood and I feel like that's why he he's been able to stick around for as long as he has and make the kind of films he's made. And while I'm not crazy about some of his newer stuff, he's very good at making things that, for better or worse, nobody asked for.

    Two of my four year old brother's favorite movies are The Corpse Bride and The Nightmare Before Christmas. He watches a lot of Tim Burton's movies because he's my favorite director. He idolizes Jack Skellington. He gets into trouble at preschool a lot for talking about it. My grandparents think that the movies are giving him nightmares or are going to give him nightmares. But if you look at him while he watches any Tim Burton movie it absolutely captivates him. I love that Tim Burton's movies can interest people of all age groups.

    Tim Burtons style is so definitive and unique that I believe that there will never be anything replacing it in the future. Or any way that it can be reinvented. From the music to his intro texts and over all attitude. It's like trying to reinvent water or air. There's no need and you just can't do it. And if I'm not mistaken Tim Burton basically invented this type of look a style in film making right? There wasn't anything like it exactly before him? It's like almost inventing the whole goth scene as we know today.

    Once u can relate to Tim's work & eye to detail sometimes with no point of clear reference except pure imagination, u would know that no director since is any where even close to capable of creating a true to the comic books Batman movie that was as much a exciting treat to watch visually & narratively than the first 2 movies he made with the right actor for Bats & Wayne - Mr. Keaton. Also He just had the technical craft in him that enabled him to 'Show & not tell' but that's not the case with the recent purely pretentious Nolan movies with his annoying signature parallely setup story lines that honestly just makes every movie he made look like another Inception.. I must say that guy nolan just used the blue print of what our genius here had left there on the silver screen ages ago! CHEERIO..!

    If Oz: The Great and Powerful didn't already happen, I would've liked to see Burton make an Oz remake that was a non-musical and was more of a action-adventure epic with a dash of spookiness and suspense. Just think of a Pirates of the Carribean meets Alice in Wonderland type of Oz. I could see Johnny Depp as the Scarecrow, Robert Downey Jr. as the Tin man and John C. Reilly as the Lion and maybe Hailee Steinfield, Chloe Grace Moretz or Elle Fanning as Dorothy. I think that would be Great!
