pee wee's big adventure might be the most underrated movie of all time. it's genius.

I'm not a Tim Burton fan, but I f*cking love that movie.

Didn't like Burton's version of Batman? Or was it just a "typical Burton movie" that just happened have a character named Batman in it.

No, I looooooved Batman as a kid, also enjoyed Beetlejuice, and still love Pee Wee.....I meant it more in the sense msun explained it, Im not a Burton fanboy. Some of his stuff I enjoy, some/much of it I can completely do without.

For me, Ed Wood was on a completely different level than his other stuff tho. In fact it and Pee Wee are probably the only two Burton movies I've actively sought out to rewatch over the last decade.

Yeah your avatar being Christian Bale prompted me to ask the question (I realize it's from a different movie - American Psycho).

Agree with your thoughts on Ed Wood.

The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford > all Burton, all Guy Ritchie

I found Burton's Batman films seriously lacking action. They are very dull. That second one is just weird.

I didn't like a single Batman film until Begins.

I've said it before, you can't beat Mark Hamill's version of the Joker.

"I LOVE COCAINE!"

God that looks funny. Exact same formula but who cares?

 

[JackBurton]

Well, they have changed it a bit. There's no actual waking up from a Hangover this time.

 

[SundinsTooth]

Surprised that I enjoyed Hannibal. The Red Dragon influence is great and this show just feels like an HBO show.

 

[JackBurton]

I want to see the Place Beyond the Pines badly.

Same. Sounds like it's going to be phenomenal.

Gosling >>>

 

[Artnes]

Final episode of Spartacus airs tonight. No secrets about the ending but I imagine they plan on throwing a twist into it.

 

[zeke]

I'm nervous about the Place beyong the Pines. I sense a dissappointment.

It sounds like Cianfrance made a pretty ambitious film......I won't be surprised if the reaction to it is fairly polarizing.
