A under-rated director imo. PICK YOUR FAVORITES.
Since everyone would list batman I took them out.
-
Anyone who doesn't vote Ed Wood is a dirty fuckin' commie. :punch
Wait, you can pick three?! FUCK.
-
Corpse Bride was the most disappointing movie I had ever seen, other than The Village lol :(
-
I try to hate on Burton, but Ed Wood and Beetlejuice are just too awesome.
-
Burton is at his best when he does his dark-comedies ala Beetlejuice and Ed Wood.
how many posts till someone asks about Nightmare Before Christmas? lol

Ed Wood > Beetle Juice > Batman, imo.
The rest either isn't very good, or I haven't and have no desire to see it.

I agree with that ranking.
Ed Woow
Beetle Juice
Batman
Pee-wee's Big Adventure
Batman Returns
nothing else matters(Scissorhands is emo trash)
-
Yeah, but I would replace Pee Wee with Mars Attacks, simply because MA has a wacky Jack Nicholson and Pee Wee Herman annoys the shit out of me.

If you erase anything pee-wee related other than that film then you should be fine. The craze that followed after it was insane.
Mars Attacks, well I saw it once in theaters and was scared because all my favorite actors starting dying off and ran out. :'( Never tried it again since.
-
Yeah, but Ving Rhames goes out like a total badass! :punch
-
Shit, I didn't notice Pee Wee
In that case,
Pee Wee
Beetlejuice
And fuck the haters... Big Fish.
-
10 years old Cheebs was scared for life due to the film. :'(

No Ed Wood? YOU'RE DEAD TO ME. TURN IN YOUR MUPEPE JACKETS, ITS ALL OVER. >:(
-
Edward Scissorhands is my favorite. I've seen it so many times. And I'm with Mupepe on Big Fish: fuck the haters it's amazing and almost made me cry
-
Edward Scissorhands is my favorite.
And here I was starting to think you'd developed taste. ::)
-
Naming Edward Scissorhands means you haven't seen Ed Wood.
Tim Burton when he goes overly emo goth ala Scissorhands is bad stuff.
-
Ignoring Edward Scissorhand's themes, it is one of his better looking films. I'd rank it over either Batman.
-

Pee Wee
Beetlejuice

Never seen it and to be honest, before this thread, I've never heard of it.

Ayo I've never seen Ed Woods

You MUST rent it. By far and away the critically accepted best film in Burton's career.

BIG FISH BIG FISH BIG FISH BIG FISH

BIG FISH BIG FISH BIG FISH BIG FISH
Yeah, but you have never seen Burton's most well liked film.

still, not enough Big Fish love.

why is mars attacks on this list
that movie sucks

Because I listed all of his movies?
-
I liked Big Fish. Beetlejuice was kinda lame to me, same with Pee Wee's. Never seen Ed Wood. Scissor hands is meh as well.
Watch Beetlejuice drunk or really high. That's how I learned to appreciate it. I never really got it when I was younger, but then I saw it on HBO one night when I was high as balls and it was fucking amazing.

And K I'm stupid, Nightmare Before Christmas isn't a Tim Burton film? I mean didn't he write it?
I think it is
-
That was my point before. How can you miss Nightmare but list shitty Mars Attacks?
-
Caroline Thompson wrote it, Henry Selick directed it.
Why would I include a movie he didn't do but not include Mars Attacks when I included everything else he did? Stop being stupid.
-
Burton created it. Just like Lucas created Indy
-
Burton created it. Just like Lucas created Indy
Burton did not write nor direct Christmas thus it does not make it one of his films. Why would I remove Mars Attacks when I included every film he directed?
Himumu wants to wipe away a film from Burton's directorial efforts for no reason and include a film that isn't his!
-
mars attacks sucks >:(
-

that doesn't mean it's not one of his films lol. I included everything he did.

Ed Wood > Edward Scissorhands by a country mile. Though, I will say its an aquired taste -- you have to have some background on Ed Wood before diving into the biopic.

Don't feel the need to defend that, that is general consensus. You know its a fact when both Willco(in some other past thread) and shake agree to declare it as his best work.

In that case,
Pee Wee
Beetlejuice
And fuck the haters... Big Fish.
we really should fuck sometime because that's exactly how I voted :heartbeat

Mars Attacks is his most underappreciated film. How many films get so many major name actors and then finds ways to creatively kill them all? Martin Short? dead by a cheeseburger alien hooker. Pierce Brosnan? Plummets to death as a decapitated head. Sarah Jessica Parker? ditto. Danny Devito? raygunned. Micheal J Fox? pwnd. Jack Black? incinerated. Jack Nicholson? rolled over by a giant earth AND nuked. That right there is just awesome.
-
Batman Returns. Everything else either sucks or is mediocre at best.
-
Tim Burton absolutely sucks
-
Mars Attacks! is pretty awesome - why the hate? The President is killed when he goes to shake the hand of a martian, then the martian's hand comes off, runs around his body and impales him with the martian flag. How awesome is that?

That's like 20 good seconds of 90 otherwise shitty minutes.

They incinerate Jack Black, use the Washington monument to kill schoolchildren and have a scene where a decapitated Pierce Brosnan admits his love to Sarah Jessica Parker, whose head is attached to a dog's body.
