i love tim burton.
i LOVE tim burton! oh yes i do, most certainly do. he's my all-time favourite director. granted, i didn't see all or even come close to many of his films like planet of the apes, ed woods, pee-wee's big adventure, frankenweenie,ed wood..but i love nightmare before christmas. edward scissorhands, sleepy hollow are fabulous too. and i'm sure i'll love charlie & the chocolate factory ( the 1971 gene wilder one is grossly insufficient & overrated) & Corpse bride!


fun fact for C & C factory: tim burton actually trained the squirrels for the scene, to crack a perfect nut, remove the perfect nut from the shell and place it on a revolving belt. 6 mths of training! in-credible.


as for The Corpse Bride: well, it is a story based on actual events that occurred in 19th century Russia, at a time when anti-semitism was widespread in eastern Europe. Very often, bands of anti-semites would waylay a Jewish wedding party on their way to the wedding. And because the bride would be the one to bear future generations, she would be ripped out of the carriage and murdered.

She would then be buried in her wedding gown.
creepy eh?

-anyway, so the main character sees this stick in the ground, places his ring and recited the entire marriage sacrament as a joke. alas, it is actually a skeleton's finger. A corpse bride, to be exact. and now, the foolish man, with a real marriage 2 days later, is bonded with a corpse in holy matrimony. how come guys always do such stupid stuff? oops, don't wanna wage a gender war. alright, so if u wanna how it goes, catch The Corpse Bride!


but WAIT! the bESt part of Tim Burton's fantastic creations are...Johnny Depp! i really think they make an amazing pair--Edward scissorhands, Sleepy Hollow, C & C factory, Corpse Bride..wow. i'll definitely catch the 2 upcoming productions, that's for sure.
