His Most Recent Work!
It just gets better and better with Burton!
in 2012 alone he has produced 3 films;
Dark Shadows, Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter and Frankenweenie (remake).
I've seen the first two, but not the last.
In 2013, a new film which I am really excited about is called Nightshade, it sounds a bit like some of his older work.
and in 2014, the greatly anticipated Deep.
are you going to see any of these films?

Film Review - Batman.
Today I will be reviewing the smash-hit film, Batman, the 1989 edition.
In this film, it stars the beginning of the arch-nemisis relationship between Batman and the Joker.
---SPOILER ALERT!---
Jack Napier, soon to be the joker, is at a raid of the Axis Chemicals Factory, when his own ricochetting bullet hits him, and his face is ripped open. In his pain, he topples off the platform and into an unknown chemical. When he returns, his face and hair is discolored. Trying to surgically repair his face, Jack is left with a permanent twisted grin, and looks like a hideous clown.
After being driven insane, he decides to fashion himself into the notorious criminal, the Joker.
He tortures the boss who set him up to go to the factory in the first place, and takes control of Gotham City, and his most nasty act yet; changing hygiene products into dangerous chemicals, causing innocent people who use them to laugh to death.
But you're going to have to see it to find out the rest.
Stats;
Release date; June 23, 1989.
Starring; Jack Nicholson (as Jack Napier.)
Michael Keaton (as Bruce Wayne.)
Kim Basinger,
Robert Wuhl,
Pat Hingle,
Billy Dee Williams,
Michael Gough,
Jack Palance.
Budget; $48 million.
Box Office total; a mahoosive $411,348,924.
I hope I've encouraged you to watch it and not spoiled it too much.
(I did warn you!)

Film Review - Edward Scissorhands.
A classic Tim Burton, starring Johnny Depp as Edward.
It was released in 1990, and received a huge $86,024,005 at the box office.
I'm not going to spoil the story for you, as I hope you see it yourself, but its about a young gentleman with, well, scissors for hands.
He uses his hands for comical things such as hedge-trimming, hairdressing and picking locks during the film, a brilliant touch from Tim Burton.
It is rated as a 12, and I suggest it for mature people at that age.
Stats;
Exact release date; December 14th 1990
Running Time; 105 minutes.
Budget; $20 million.
Starring; Johnny Depp,
Winona Rider,
Dianne Wiest,
Anthony Micheal Hall,
Kathy Baker,
Vincent Price,
Alan Arkin.
Music by; Danny Elfman.
I hope you watch it, and if you have, enjoyed it!

Welcome to my Blog
This is my blog about everything Tim Burton.
I am a huge fan of Burtons work, from Batman to Edward Scissorhands to Beetlejuice.
His films are classed as gothic, but they are beautifully constructed, dark works of art.
About him;
He was born on August 25th (he is now 54) and he was born in California, Burbank.
He has been an active film maker since 1982.
His full name is Timothy Walter Burton.
This is him recently.
I hope you enjoy my blog,
