Tim Burton

‘Wednesday’ is Burton’s first TV series.

Creepy, kooky!

The Nightmare Before Christmas is a beloved ’90s classic. But did you know the movie started life over ten years earlier, when producer Tim Burton wrote a poem in 1982? At the time, Burton was an animator at Walt Disney Studios, and he tried to turn The Nightmare Before Christmas into a short film. Disney considered it, but nothing ever happened with it, and eventually Burton lost his job. Then he went on to direct Pee-wee’s Big Adventure and Batman. Suddenly, Disney was more interested in The Nightmare Before Christmas, and as an entire feature-length film. That’s just one of the Nightmare Before Christmas facts featured in the newest episode of You Think You Know Movies!

"Your dog is Aliiiiiive!" Surely you've heard the soundbyte from 'Frankenweenie.' A hunched-over, snaggle-toothed, black and white Edgar "E" Gore, mischief in his eyes and a half-assed Peter Lorre in his voice. It's spooky and it's ooky and it's either the type of thing that you find really played-out or brings a tickle to your heart.

Johnny Depp drops his hate into the vampire ring and comes out swinging with his new movie Dark Shadows. 2 seconds into the video and you realize that Johnny has teamed up with his old friend Tim Burton to drop this movie. And if you've been living under a rock, every time Tim Burton makes a movie it's almost guaranteed to have Johnny Depp as the lead. Even with his animated movies.
