Lol

As a kid, I thought Edward Scissorhands was the most beautiful man (I cried at the end lol but the music is still the one I play when it snows), I had a strange repulsion and attraction to Beetlejuice. All of these feelings before I was even 9 years old. I can understand why people would say it's "try hard" a la Nightmare Before Christmas, but aside from some Henson properties, who else was bringing this to the masses? This different aesthetic that appealed to some? Be it a kid in the inner city watching it on TV or some kid out in country watching it on VHS. It was magical. It transported me -- this place so different and yet not entirely foreign to me. And the stories were, to a certain extent, sweet, and about finding a home, family, people who loved and cared for you (as strange as you may seem).

I've seen Big Fish suggested as a good film of his, and admittedly, over the years I have cared less about Burton's films, but there was something there, at least early on. And yeah, there's an element of nostalgia, but...idk. anyway, there's plenty of film makers/films I don't care for that people lose their shit over so I get it lol.
