I give Dumbo a pass because its overall message is animals do NOT belong at the circus. Its a very abused and fearful life for them, especially elephants. Im glad at least that he got that message out there.

[@angelzavala2254]

Messages are a good thing, but movies have to be good too! 😃

[@StevenTLawson]

@@angelzavala2254 Exactly if you have a message in a bad movie, I just assume you either don't really care about the message so why should I, you don't understand the message you are trying to send so I shouldn't listen to you, or you think it's something to make fun of and I should instead support it because of how absurd it is.

[@c0mpu73rguy]

I agree. Alice is way way worse than Dumbo IMO.

[@NidotheKing]

I was just wondering what the best/worst Tim Burton movies are, then Jambareeqi posts this.

[@AmethystOrlando]

Who would have guessed that two of Tim Burton's best movies start with the word 'big' in the title.

[@georgerobertson7010]

You should do best and worst live action Disney remakes

[@joshuaW5621]

Tim Burton seems to be one of those hit or miss filmmakers, but I sure have a lot of respect for the guy.

[@johnnygallagher5718]

Here’s a fun fact Tim Burton was originally signed to direct movies like Drop Dead Fred, Stay Tuned, and believe it or not, Jurassic Park!

[@SchwarzAnthonyBoys18]

How about a video about top/worst 5 Tim Curry roles ? It'll be hard cuz every role he played are insane. Tim Burton created some pearls but my favorite movie from this insane movie producer is Corpse Bride (back i was young i had a crush on Emily the bride). Otherwise Mars Attack, Sweeney Todd the demonic barber from Fleet street are really great. In Mars Attack i love the weapon who turned peoples into red or green skeletons but my best friend liked the one who shrunk peoples.

[@sheilaholmes8455]

There aren’t any worst for Tim Curry.

[@SchwarzAnthonyBoys18]

@@sheilaholmes8455 yup he's perfect as a voice actor "All might from the voice actor job"

[@hunterolaughlin]

I have to admit it’s really refreshing to get a list discussing the best and worst Tim Burton films and not have Charlie and the Chocolate Factory on the worst list. I feel like most cynical reviewers would make a worst Tim Burton film list merely just so they can put CATCF on their list and have an excuse to rant about the film. I admire seeing a reviewer looking into OTHER Burton films when talking about the worst.

[@ironclanex6351]

Plus that film isn’t that bad

[@xavierjuno4572]

​@@ironclanex6351Ya if anything it was more faithful to the source material than the film everyone grew up with

[@sloanewalker42]

How about doing a ranking of Stephen King movie adaptations villains after your next one?

[@FanaticMitchell1]

Oh yeah

[@alexismartinez8343]

Most people praised the message about animal cruelty in circuses 🎪 and animals don't belong in circuses in the Dumbo remake but I didn't even buy it. I am sorry the message comes off too preachy and shovel down in your face. Moral of this story filmmakers - If you are going to have a message about animal care and environmental friendly, then show the message not tell us. Show don't tell.

[@racheljackson4428]

Thank you for not including The Nightmare before Christmas because although it is a Tim burton film, Henry Selic who made the stop motion animation is the true creator of this film because Disney just slaps Tim Burton's name instead of Henry?

[@mihovilkoncurat4480]

Really good video man, kind of sad for me. Not seeing Big Fish in the best list but really happy that you gave Edward Scissorhands and Ed Wood the top spots. All three of these are some of my favorite movies ever. And I'm glad you made a great video like this.

[@angelzavala2254]

I love Mars Attack! But because of how werid the movie is and the pacing I can see why people don't like it!

[@victoriamalloy5904]

Thank you for mentioning Big Eyes! It’s severely underrated and my personal favorite from Tim Burton! 👁️👁️💜🎥

[@srstriker6420]

Well some movies like the 90’s Addams Family movie and a Series of Unfortunate events movie would be mistaken for Burton work. As much as I respect him but I think that Batman Returns could have done more like I always felt that Batman and Penguin should be like Eliot Ness and Al Capone from the Untouchables.

[@luigi4life913]

Aw man, I was hoping Charlie and the Chocolate Factory would be on the best list. I love that movie

[@crsproductions2003]

The only film of Burton’s I have seen fully would be his adaptation of Roald Dahl’s book Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, which I very much prefer over the 1971 adaptation with Gene Wilder, and admittedly I can get annoyed when people call it a remake when it clearly isn’t for obvious reasons.

[@DogDayFromPoppyPlaytime180]

I love that movie

[@TheTrumpReaper]

It isn't at all a remake. It is a different director's interpretation of the book.

[@crsproductions2003]

@@TheTrumpReaper Yes

[@DHynes5]

​@@TheTrumpReaper And arguably more accurate

[@Teag_Brohman15]

I swear, the only reason why the Dumbo remake had that ending was because Disney didn't want the animal rights' activists to get a bee in their bonnet over the movie.

[@KyleRDent]

One of my favourites is Big Fish. It's nice to see someone different as the male lead, and Ewan/Albert are both charming (though I don't know how accurate the accents are, I'm sure a local can verify 😂)

[@claratalbot7613]

I too this day still have my vhs tape of Edward Sissorhands even though I no longer have a vhs players. Its was the one movie I refused to give up when I donated the rest of my vhs tapes. I resonate with the movie not just because it was one of my first Tim Burton movie but because I felt that kindredship with Edward myself as well. I know what it felt like to be an outcast for both my hobbies & being neurodivergent. On the one hand I was bullied for my love of horror but then also had people who took advantage of my kindness & naive willingness to help people. It wasn't until I got older that I realized they were only being nice to me so I would give them answer to homework or group work questions & I decided I wasn't going to do that anymore they showed their true nature & joined the people who were already bullying me. It's why I will always stand up for & resenate with a kindhearted misfit

[@TheTrumpReaper]

Two words: Sweeney Todd. Lots of great misanthropic music. Epiphany: "We *ALL* deserve to die, even you Mrs Lovett, even I."

[@cosmiquealiene6168]

Oh thank goodness it wasn't just me who felt the same way about Dark Shadows! I especially hated how they tried to frame Barnabas as a hero...for the EXACT SAME REASONS THAT YOU DID! Personally, I still think it's Tim's worst movie. I mean, children were the target demographic for Alice and might have got something out of it, but who was Dark Shadows intended for? I'm really glad you put Edward Scissorhands at number one. Either that or Nightmare Before Christmas is his magnum opus - absolutely! Though I personally prefer Edward. It really spoke deeply to me, being disabled myself, and my gosh...the ending of the film left me utterly SHOCKED. Yet, the tragedy of it all made the film more powerful than if it had a happy ending💔

[@PharaohTrebilClef]

I personally see Alice in Wonderland as a sequel of sorts to the original story.

[@samkilpatrick1259]

I’d love to see your top 5 worst and best Steven Spielberg films.

[@crcoghill]

... i was actually wondering the other day after your Aardman video: Have you done the best Main Leads in movies yet? Just a curious question is all.

[@angelzavala2254]

I prefer Batman Returns, but both movies are S tier!

[@InvaderArizona]

For me in my opinion Best: Beetlejuice Worst: Dumbo (2019)

[@AngeloStanziola-hq7st]

PLEASE make a ranking of kaiju villians like for example any godzilla version thats evil or others like king ghidora, destroya or third partys like slattern or skullcrawler

[@spyjack69]

Odd idea but could you rank the smg4 arc villains

[@montanajackson3713]

Charlie and the chocolate factory will always be one of my childhood favorites. And Big Eyes deserves more recognition.

[@dexterkmet2231]

As a musical fan, I was hoping Sweeney Todd would make it to the "best" list (It's such a solid adaption and I just adore HBC as Mrs. Lovett. Plus the atmosphere in the movie is perfect). I do love the video though, I wasn't even aware a few of them (such as dumbo) were tim burton.

[@Miyavisgirl1540]

I think Tim Burton should have teamed up with American McGee to make an adaptation of Alice: Madness Returns for the big screen.

[@thomasspongeconductor2222]

14:12 Disney have never really been that big on historical accuracy though.

[@FiremanSamBoy2008]

I think you should do a video of the best kids shows from 2008.

[@nickdorenkamp959]

12:18 it would've. Infact it couldve been done in a similar way that another film Burton produced for Disney, the 1996 Henry Selick directed feature James and the Giant Peach where the opening and closing were live action but everything else was stop motion.

[@HarryThomasPictures]

Best Tim Burton movie Edward Scissorhands. Worst Tim Burton movie Dumbo 2019

[@stormshadowproductions1660]

Please review the the legend of Korra season by season

[@forrestdupre87]

What about The Nightmare before Christmas, Corpse Bride, Frankenweenie?

[@plushmakerfan8444]

I was going to ask to rank the villains not the mocies

[@whichDude]

Mars Attacks Tall Woman horrified me as a child

[@Moe1002]

I feel like nightmare before Christmas should have been on here? personally, its my all time favorite Tim Burton movie especially considering I think its the first movie ive ever watched, and its still one of my favorites

[@LeoandLamb]

He didn’t direct that movie. Henry Sellic did.

[@Moe1002]

@@LeoandLamb ah well damn, Burton did have a bunch to do with the project, and he did work on the original poem, so cant blame me for missing that, right?

[@OrangeTheAlienAthlete4095]

I think you should do a video of the top 5 best and worst family guy episodes

[@forrestdupre87]

What about his animated films?

[@RyobaHorrorAnime]

I got a Planet of the Apes ad while watching this video. Anyway, I agree with 5 on best, 3 on best (Excited for the sequel), and 1 on best. I’ve seen 2 on worst, I honestly thought it was okay. I haven’t seen the others though .

[@TheRandomZooVisitor]

Whoa now, I get that Dumbo has its flaws, but I feel as if it's one of the better Disney remakes. Also Batman didnt age well either, literally she gets drunk and sleeps with bruce as he is sober. Also where is Nightmare before Christmas

[@TheRealNerdtube2024]

Every Tim Burton movie is about a wierd outcast, it's the only kind if he ever wants to make

[@JaredGriffiths2000]

I'd say Dumbo is his worst film as well.

[@DogDayFromPoppyPlaytime180]

You forgot Nightmare Before Christmas

[@alantorresdwyer5542]

While this film was produced by Burton and based on his poem and characters, it was directed by Henry Sellick.

[@DogDayFromPoppyPlaytime180]

@@alantorresdwyer5542 Oh okay

[@xBloodxFangx]

@@alantorresdwyer5542 Its sort of sad really, because Tim Burton at that time was more popular, they slapped "Tim Buton's Nightmare Before Christmas" on the title to draw more people in and Henry Sellick was all but forgotten. Im glad at least he's made a name for himself now.

[@starinvader5969]

We’re Charlie and the chocolate factory 2005

wait... no Nightmare Before Christmas?!

where’s nightmare before Christmas?

Hot take: I think beetle juice is a bit overrated I don't hate it I just think it's all right but I think the musical is Surprisingly better

[@sheilaholmes8455]

Dark Shadows had nothing to do with the original tv show. They just stole the name!

[@Leipajuusto-hj9ts]

Where is Nightmare Before Christmas?

[@Askmolnet]

Not from Tim Burton

[@ampsoce6778]

About Dumbo I disagree. This rebooted movie is the BEST, instead of other rebooted movies (based on original Disney work).
