What Puts ‘Coraline’ a Cut Above Other Animated Horror

When considering the greatest animated works of the last few decades, Henry Selick’s name should be one of the first on your mind. Selick worked with Disney for many years, where he directed the iconic and ever present The Nightmare Before Christmas which is often understandably but mistakenly attributed to Tim Burton, who instead had […]

‘Catwoman’ Changed Halle Berry’s Life, and Not Because It Bombed

Catwoman needs no introduction. Its reputation as one of the worst films ever made was established practically from day one, and its dismal performance at the global box office ($82 million from a $100 million budget) killed any chances of it becoming the next big franchise. It didn’t help that it released the same summer […]

Tim Burton Didn’t Care For Nic Cage’s Superman Cameo In ‘The Flash’: “I’m In Quiet Revolt Against All This”

Every major filmmaker has a project or two that falls through the cracks and never gets made. But given the current superhero movie craze, one of the most popular of these unmade movies is Tim Burton‘s “Superman Lives,” with Nic Cage starring as Clark Kent/Kal-El. Almost everyone has seen the behind-the-scenes photo of Cage in […]

Tim Burton Slams Nicolas Cage Superman Cameo in ‘The Flash’ Referencing Director’s Axed Film: ‘I’m in Quiet Revolt Against All This’

Tim Burton Isn’t Happy About How The Flash Used Batman And Superman

Andy Muschietti’s recent superhero flick “The Flash” hoped to lure in audiences with a sprawling story that spans several parallel universes. It was the same approach taken by John Watts in “Spider-Man: No Way Home” and Sam Raimi in “Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness,” in that all three films assembled multiple versions of […]

Federico Fellini’s Influence Echoes Through Tim Burton’s ‘Batman Returns’

Batman Returns is not the standard by which film adaptations of The Dark Knight are measured. Even the movie’s biggest fans — and I’m one of them — should be willing to admit that. It’s too idiosyncratic and personal an interpretation to reflect the party line on Batman from the 1990s, let alone today. Not […]

The Twilight Zone Episode That Gave Planet Of The Apes Its Famous Twist Ending

When I was a kid, no movie ending scared me more than “Planet of the Apes.” Granted, I was exposed to Tim Burton’s poorly received update on the film before I ever saw the stunning ending of Franklin J. Schaffner’s original, but the effect was the same both times: total shock, awe, and primal fear […]
