I'm a great fan of Tim Burton's work. He is such an amazing guy who comes up with such great storylines, and the darkness in some of his films are perfect for my liking.

Huge fan of Tim Burton's work. I love when you can just watch a movie and can know immediately who directed it. He has a very unique style and I'm pretty much a fan of most of his movies. I also love his loyalty to his actors and the actors loyalty to him. It really shows the type of person and talent that he is.

I just watched edward Scissorhands and I did it with the commentary on and I will say this though, his commentary was so boring. He barely talked--so then the movie would start back at normal volume and then suddenly it would go quiet and he'd say something I'd get scared because I would have forgotten that I was watching it with the commentary on.

I like a lot of his work.

My favorites of his are Sleepy Hollow, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, and Beetlejuice. Beetlejuice is the first Tim Burtom film I ever saw.

The Tim Burton movies I have seen have been Batman, Batman Returns, Beetlejuice, Edward Scissorhands, Sleepy Hollow, Planet Of Apes, and The Corpse Bride. I really do love his work. My favorite movie of his is Batman followed by Edward Scissorhands.

I just saw a poster ad for Nightmare Before Christmas in 3-D. It comes out this October. Should be fun.

My favorite of his will always be Beatlejuice, which is just genius.

i love the Nightmare Before Christmas!!!

I love Tim Burton. He's an awesome director, and him/Depp are my favorite actor/director collaboration ever.

I've loved Nightmare Before Christmas since I was little, I love the way he creates a story and makes it so completley unique. Edward Scissorhands is probably one of my favorite movies of all time. I love that he takes a general 'once upon a time' fairy tale idea, but makes it darker and more complex, and much deeper.

Oh man, I totally agree there. He barely talked much at all in the commentary. Did you listen to him in Sleepy hollow? He actually talked a bit more in that but still not enough. Aw well, he still rocks. My favorite part though of Tim talking in Edward Scissorhands was when he said that Johnny Depp threw up on set, once was at the scene where all those women kept shoving all those desserts in his mouth (poor guy, lol) and then the other when he was running in his leather suit and it got really hot.

I love his work.
Nobody has mentioned "Ed Wood": I just love that one.
"The Nightmare Before Christma" is also another favourite.

he really knows how to spark up a tiny imagination

Ed wood was a great film, I actually just watched it last night and watched the behind the scenes of filming and it was funny to see Tim and Johnny together talking.

I've never seen that I've seen stuff about it but never seen the movie is it good?
