    Tim Burton has always been a fave of mine, his dark style of directing and darker humor have always appealed to me, we'll forgive him the planet of the apes remake, which was probably his worst movie, but lets rejoice in..

    Batman, mmmm, dark, brooding
    Batman return, more dark, more dark humor
    Edward Scissorhands, a dark love story
    Beetlejuice, makes me laugh every time
    Ed Wood, quite possibly his best ever
    Mars Attacks , Ack ACk ACK!
    Sleepy Hollow, fond memories of this film, far to vulgar to repeat in here

    Big Fish - not seen yet, on my shelf at home awaiting viewing

    Charlie and..., again, not seen yet...

    And of course, who can forget, although not directed by Tim, at least written and produced, The Nightmare Before Christmas, quite possibly one of my favourite films ever.

    All hail Tim!

        Big Fish is odd but good, Jonesy.
        As a fan of Burton's, I'm sure you'll enjoy it.

          Tim Burton for all the reasons that Mr Jones listed. Tarantino is another favorite of mine.

                              i don't really have a favorite director but i do like Spielberg films. i like Jerry Bruckheimer produced movies more as they always seem to be a bit better.
