Favorite Tim Burton Film?

Tim Burton's films are either hit or miss, so I was wondering what's everyone's favorite Tim Burton film?

It's either Ed Wood or Pee-wee's Big Adventure for me, with Batman a close third.

Ed Wood, easily. It may be the only movie I can stand Sarah Jessica Parker in.

I know it's probably the cop-out answer but I'll go with Nightmare Before Christmas.

Big Fish

Batman

Beetleguise and Pee Wee's Big Adventure.

Nightmare Before Christmas.

Ed Wood is great but I have to say it goes like this
1. Beetlejuice
2.Pee Wee's Big Adventure
3. Ed Wood
With an honorable mention to Big Fish and Sleepy Hollow.  
 
I don't want to be that guy but I didn't care for the Tim Burton Batman movies. 

It's between Nightmare Before Christmas or either of his Batman films. I like his movies a lot, though.

I'm not gonna comment or kidavenger will say I have bad taste again.

Ed Wood or Big Fish

Ed Wood was such a great insight into the side of Hollywood that's never shown, but that I still love dearly adn Big Fish was such an earnest sweet story that I'll admit I got slightly misty eyed by the ending from.

Johnny Depp and Ewan MacGregor played their characters in those flicks with such innocent glee that it was infectious. Plus Martin Landau and Albert Finney were amazing in their supporting roles.

Both movies also managed to challenge Burton out of his comfort zone as well.

Nightmare Before Christmas, but after seeing Coreline, I realized burton had nothing to do with it, and the director of coreline was the one who made NBC good. Yet who gets all the credit for that one, burton, tragic.

Pee Wee's Big Adventure for me. It's perfect.

Edward Scissorhands hands scissored. (snipped?)

Beetlejuice and Sleepy Hollow.

That one where everything is a little dark and twisted, but with a quirky sense of humour and a little whimsy

Sweeney Todd was great

I love that movie

I've only seen a few Tim Burton films, but seeing trailers for the new Johnny Depp vehicle, Dark Shadows, makes my roll my eyes. Good doesn't mean blue filters, Burton!

None of the ones with Johnny Depp in them.

I'm pretty sure they deserve equal credit. Because Henry Selick had nothing to do with Corpse Bride, and that movie was stylistically similar AND pretty successful with critics and audiences.

1. Beetlejuice
2. Edward Scissorhands
3. Nightmare before Chirtsmas.

Alice in Wonderland. Futterwack4lyfe.

All of them, besides "Planet of the Apes"...

Edward Scissorhands is his best film by a mile. I used to love all of his films years ago, but most of them are met with a sigh now. Batman Returns and Mars Attacks are two of my other favourites.

Batman Returns

Batman Returns is one of the best anti-christmas movies ever imo.

It's fucking bleak and quite visually stunning. Weird as well.

Sleepy Hollow and Sweeney Todd.

I could watch all of his movies multiple times in a row and not get tired of them.

Big Fish. That movie makes you feel a thousand emotions in the end.

THE ONLY GOOD TIM BURTON FILM IS A DEAD TIM BURTON FILM! (what?)

Probably Pee-Wee.

Ed Wood. I also like Sweeney Todd a lot.

Ed Wood, Pee Wee's Big Adventure & Beetlejuice. I haven't enjoyed anything he's made since Ed Wood very much. I like both his Batman films, particularly Batman Returns.

Big Fish

Beetlejuice

Pee Wee's Big Adventure has a special place in my heart so I'll have to go with that one. I also loved Batman Returns but it scared the ever loving piss out of me as a kid.

Really liked Sweeney Todd

Batman Returns is one of the best anti-christmas movies ever imo.

Probably Batman Returns, but I'm not really a big fan of Tim Burton's stuff. I just like that one because the villains are Christopher Walken and Danny DeVito.

For favorite I'm torn between Beetlejuice, Sleepy Hollow & Nightmare Before Christmas (as well as Edward Scissorhands).

Big Fish or Batman Returns.

I came into this thread all set to say Frankenweenie, but it's probably Pee Wee.

sleepy hollow and nightmare before Christmas

Pee Wee's Big Adventure an Ed Wood. I don't have even a moderate liking of any of his other films.

I really enjoyed the Batman movies as a kid. Was also a fan of Sweeny Todd.

I totally did this same thread last year and it was a poll so it's obviously superior to this.

Anyways, it would have to be The Nightmare Before Christmas or Pee Wee's Big Adventure.

Edit: Sweeney Todd is also really good. Fuck it's too hard to pick one.

Batman, kinda Batman Returns.
