Good for him. He's long overdue for something like this. I'm still fumed about Corpse Bride's loss at the Oscars by the way.

Well, that was kind of a fluffy, frivolous thing, wasn't it? Had to question some of the choices. They just don't make scary films like they used to and to list a SEQUEL as a nominee...Sheesh. Still, The Ring was , admittedly , a bit freaky , though I did vote for the Exorcist. Never could watch that thing straight through....But this is for Tim Burton, isn't it? I definately believe that Hollywood has snubbed him far too often simply because he's so far from the "mainstream"...but it is precisely for this reason that he deserves SO much more recognition. He is a true original....and his right hand man Mr. Depp has definately come a long way from 21 Jump Street.

Emily, how could you? That website said tim is the king of the emos!
And we are NOT emos!

All it said is that, all emo-punk bands on the planet and Goths came together just to see The Nightmare Before Christmas. Besides, we should just all get along with each other, and just band up on the preps that say "TNBC is stupid and lame only for goths" (Which by the way P*sses me off!) This is what they said,"became massive, spawning merchandise and a devoted cult following that included tons of goth kids, their younger siblings, basically every emo-punk band on the planet and a whole lot of decidedly un-emo acts too."

I mean if you were emo would'nt you want to play your song on The Nightmare? I'm not even a musician or singer and I would like to play in it.(because I guess I am catorgized under "Goth") That dose'nt even matter all that matters is that Tim Burton is not emo and this just was all Disney's doings. F**king Disney! TNBC is just fine just the way it is!!And besides if I were Tim Burton I'd be happy that so meny has admired him, but I was Danny Elfman then I would be devastated that they were going to chang his music.

I'm happy for him. I seriously hope he wins- he definately deserves some recognition.

thank god hes finally gettin recognized critically. its long overdue recognition. i think hes just as good as speilberg hes better visually then tarantino, and hes no doubt better than george lucas in every aspect. i think he deserves the award.

I've been voting every now and then.. I think I'm on my fourth vote. And he's still losing to Peter Jackson! What's up with that???

9:22 PM  
Blogger deppthinker said...

Meh....Peter Jackson....made a few insignificant, ridiculous films before finally impressing us with the visually stunning Lord of The Rings trilogy. No comment on King Kong, other than the fact that, at least, he went with the original movie script. Nicely done there. Still, he's not much in the way of originality, is he? Tim Burton has that in aces , a quality seriously lacking in Hollywood , and yet he's constantly passed over for what they call his "weirdness". Go figure.....

i'm just gonna keep voting till he is winning and even then i will keep voting. ha ha its gonna be fun

i'm really sorry to interupt but I just have a quick random question.
does anyone remember the music from the Corpse Bride trailer, at the end where it had the choir singing in the background. What movie was that song from, does anyone know?

11:26 PM  
Blogger sally said...

^ Jack, I'm not 100% but im almost positive that it's from the Stepford Wives.

Hey, don't forget to vote for Natalie Portman too, because she did really good in V for Vendetta, don't ya think? She rocks!

Anonymous Bill said...

Totally off subject. But I think Jeff Goldblum should be in Sweeney Todd.

We only get to vote once per day ?
COME ON! At this rate, we'll never get enough votes in, and he deserves this more than anyone.

Yeah, Natalie Portman was awesome in V. We should vote for her... she was in Mars Attacks! as well. So that deserves some recognition too. ;-)
