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

You could say that about pretty much any popular director. Hell, every movie Nolan has made has dealt with the pathos of the characters, and all are shot like it's an overcast day. Even directors like Kubrick and Ang Lee, who stretch genres more than most directors --- even they have a consistency that makes their movies distinct and obviously their own. You know what bugs me most about the "directors need to be more diverse" line of thinking? No one's favorite Martin Scorsese movie is Kundan. Fuck that movie! We want to see some violent underworld shit!!!! They should have cast motherfucking Joe Pesci as the Dalai Lama, and had more profanity. That shit would have been, as they say, off the hook!!!! Quote: It's not that I don't like his movies, I think he is a talented director who has made some decent movies in his career. I like Beetlejuice, Big Fish, Batman Returns, and parts of Sleepy Hollow. All I am saying is give it a rest for once, and go back to what worked so well with a movie like Big Fish. What worked so well for Big Fish?? If I'm not mistaken, that movie lost money at the theater. I'm just saying, a lot of people like Burton for his style. The people who think he needs to do something different are in a minority, thereby, IMO justifying why he doesn't need to do anything other than what he loves doing.
