Awesome director with a minor touch of insanity, among other things. Originally started working at Disney, on the animation team for The Fox and the Hound. Has since went on to direct movies such as Beetlejuice, Edward Scissorhands, and Mars Attacks!, as well as two shorts. Also has a freakish relationship with Danny Elfman.

Tim Burton is a pretty movie director whos popularity with the emo and kindergoth crowds have skyrocketed through stores like Hot Topic hawking every piece of Jack Skellington, Sally the Rag Doll, and Corpse Bride merchandise available. 98% of the time, his movie scores are composed by Danny Elfman.
Kindergoth: Oh my GAWD this Tim Burton pillow has Jack Skellington on it! 70 dollars? I'll buy it! It's soooo tragic, but quirky.

One of the most talented and influential directors of this generation.
With films such as:
The Nightmare Before Christmas
Edward Scissorhands
Mars Attacks!
Beetlejuice
Batman
Charlie & The Chocolate Factory

And many others....this mans unirvalled talent and imagination have made him the Cult Icon he is today.

He's also a bit mad....but who isn't eh

Kid: It's Eadible???
Willy Wonka: Everything in my factory is eat-able, even i am eat-able but that is called cannibalism and is frowned upon in most societies.

Tim Burton: "Hmm, who should I cast as the female lead in my film?"
(His girlfriend (Helena Bonham Carter) looks threateningly at him)
Tim Burton: "Oh Yes! Of course honey, I'll cast you!"

Great director who directed some great movies but is not close to being the best director ever.
It's a damn shame Tim Burton has been brought up to the Hot Topic crowd.

The man who makes magic completely fill you up, and when you watch any of his films you never want to return to reality. He takes risks, dares to be different, makes us laugh and at the same time makes us fill with sadness, sympathy and every other emotion known to us. He can relate to everyone and he manages to always tickle that spot deep down in you that makes you think, not everyone can do this. He is undoubtadly a King.
you'll get hooked so easily, but you dont mind

Tim Burton is the ultimate dream maker
