Tim Burton Strikes Back...

Tim Burton has many more hits than misses IMHO. This year looks to be another breakout year for the mastermind behind some of my favorite movies. Burton brought us (among others) the good Batman movies (although I have very high hopes for the new one), Edward Scissorhands, James and the Giant Peach, Beetlejuice, and, of course, The Nightmare Before Christmas (one of my all-time favs). Burton has two (count 'em) Johnny Depp movies on tap for the year... the heavily publicized Charlie and the Chocolate Factory in July (which looks quite good) and the stop-motion Corpse Bride in September (which also looks very good).
