in his movies not even death gets you
down oh you stoned or something
they tried stoning me my dear it did not
work welcome to watchmojo.com and today
we’re counting down our picks for Tim
Burton’s
top ten movies
for this list we’ve included movies
Burton either directed and/or wrote
number 10 Mars Attacks it’s tough to
find someone who liked this back when it
was first released but somehow those
Martians phasors their way into our
hearts and now it’s considered a cult
classic with a seriously star-studded
cast enough camp factor and b-movie
awesomeness for 10 flicks and some of
the quack iasts aliens ever put the film
Jesus Christ Mars Attacks is definitely
weird but that’s what makes it a Tim
Burton joint
number nine Sweeney Todd the Demon
Barber of Fleet Street last my arm is
complete something about Tim Burton and
musicals works but like his other movies
and these pies it’s unsettling
thank you daddy he’s adapted from a
Sondheim wheeler musical Sweeney Todd
sees Burton tap the usual suspects to
tell this tale of woe and macabre eyes
even though the story isn’t his it
embraces typical Burton motifs love
revenge a little dash of insanity and a
whole lot of blood number 8 big fish
after tanking with 2001’s Planet of the
Apes remake Burton bounced back big time
with this Daniel Wallace adaptation with
this film
Burton lets us in on a secret about his
love of creating fantasy worlds out of
the ordinary
I’m to the full knowledge of my own
death I knew the giant Coon kill me
all the same I prefer to keep my bones
unbroken Warren are you here a southern
fairy tale about storytelling death
betrayal and familial rifts ultimately
becomes a tale of Understanding between
a father and son all told with Burton’s
signature visual elegance
number seven okay
pee-wee’s big adventure cereal Burton’s
got a knack for cult films and pee-wee’s
journey is the cultist well written by
and starring Paul Reubens this flick
served as the prototype for all Burton’s
movies with bold ideas even bolder
characters and a lack of maturity that
appeals to young and old Burton’s
directorial debut is innovative
ingenious and incredible and remember
King fashion sense and stellar dancing
skills can get you out of anything
number six Ed Wood and actor it’s the
story of a misunderstood director whose
passion for filmmaking results in weird
movies nope it’s not Burton’s
autobiography top there never permit run
not only the tale of a full time cult
filmmaker and part-time transvestite ed
woods also a good-natured love letter to
a fellow cinephile you want to keep
moving you’ve got to get through that
door made by anyone else this would have
been a caricature but Burton’s
credibility makes Edie would a poignant
character analysis that moves you to the
final frame cut that’s a wrap
number five corpse bride
Burton nurtures his love of stop-motion
animation with this characteristically
dark witty but loose adaptation of
Jewish folklore
another foray into family-friendly fair
this surprisingly happy movie tells the
story of a man who ends up in a grave
misunderstanding when he gets cold feet
on his wedding night and unwittingly
marries a dead bride with this ring I
asked you to be mine
I do despite the morbid themes
it’s one of Burton’s more uplifting
offerings wait
I made a promise
you kept your promise
you set me free number four Beetlejuice
think about it we realized Tim Burton is
the king of mixing horror and comedy
what I mean is can you be scary what do
you think of this nowhere is that more
evident than in his second film as a
director with Beetlejuice Burton aimed
to make a flick similar in visual style
to the campy B movies of your spending
comparatively little money on effects
like stop-motion prosthetics puppets and
more it’s enough to make your head spin
number three The Nightmare Before
Christmas what’s this what’s this what’s
this his wife things in detail what’s
this a Disney Burton pairing surprised
aren’t you it’s hard to believe Burton
didn’t direct this but he was too busy
with Batman Returns at the time even so
this critically and financially
successful stop-motion movie positively
screams Tim Burton right down to the
creepy character designs Danny Elfman
score and strange but endearing story
consider this vacation sandy a reward
it’s your turn to take it easy if these
are the kinds of skeletons Burton’s got
in his closet will allow it and what did
Santa bring you honey
number two Batman
when Burton revealed he was not a
comic-book fan you can imagine how fans
of the Caped Crusader felt they were
even less impressed when usual comedian
Michael Keaton was awarded the cape and
cowl but the controversy disappeared
when crowds saw the movie dark humor
comic book-like visuals and
fantastically vile villains helped make
Burton’s Batman and it’s spectacularly
sinister follow up a bap tastic success
I want you to tell all your friends
about me I’m Batman
number one Edward Scissorhands what
happened to you this is the directors
favorite film from his catalogue and we
couldn’t agree more
it has Burton written all over it from
the kitchen
spectacular cast Elfman soundtrack and
main character we both love and fear
written produced and directed by Burton
himself this film blends a quiet story
with intricate makeup costumes and sets
marking a turning point in the directors
career we still think of Edward when it
snows
