This is my favorite Tim Burton movie.

It is a very strange film of his to consider a favorite, I'll admit, but only because it seems to be less Burton esque than most of his other films. In terms of style, this film was obviously an homage to 50's sci-fi films but I felt that in terms of substance, this film lacked heavily in Burton's commonly seen trademarks. It is truly a fun film to watch, in my opinion, every three of four years just to reminisce, because it is a Tim Burton film after all. Not to tell you that you're wrong to love this film, because you are not, I am just stating my opinion on the matter and curiousity as to why you'd pick this one. My personal favorite is Corpse Bride, but that's just me. I feel like it is everything a Burton film longs to be.

This is a great movie and I can understand why you'd say it's your favorite by Burton. It has an incredible cast, lots of memorable and funny lines, and some interesting stylistic elements that I'd certainly call 'Burton-esque'. I would not say it's my favorite Burton film but it's definitely on my top 5.

Mine too - and even this one is juuust awful.
