Topic: Tim Burton Has To Know He Fucked Up Forum: JoBlo

Singer paved the way for movies like Spider-Man, Batman, Hellboy, etc. Not Tim Burton. Batman paved the way for Singer. Superman paved the way for Batman and Singer. In fact, before Singer there was Stephen Norrington's Blade just a year or two before it. And it was a superhero movie based on a comic that took it's material seriously and made a lot of doe, and was popular enough to garnish 2 sequels.
