IMO they are the worst combination EVER!
Movies like Edward Scisorhand, Corpse Bride, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory pisses me off sooo much....

Not only that, but Sweeney Todd....I was on the edge of my seat screaMING because of Depp's horrible acting...

I'm getting a little tired of them, but they always have Ed Wood and in my opinion that is the best movie they have done together, and in Burton's case ever done. I also love Edward Scissorhands and Sleepy Hollow. Now it just seems to be getting played out.

Wasn't a fan of scissorhands, however I was like, 5 so I was pretty freaked out by it..

But I loved Sweeney Todd and Charlie and the chocolate factory was entertaining. I love Johnny Depp, he's a chameleon, he can play any part and it comes off as new. I think Tim Burton is best add adding a new twist to classics or previously made ideas(Batman, Charlie, and new to the list Sweeney Todd). His OWN movies aren't that amazing, but Nightmare before Christmas has quite the following.

So no, I don't hate them, I'm not a fanatic about either of them, but I certainly respect Burton as a visionary director and Depp as a terific actor.

Depp is a great actor, but I definitely think Tim Burton is overrated. He really isn't that great of a director.

I love them. I love their movies and Sweeney Todd was amazing, Johnny Depp was superb in it. I love Tim Burton's originality and twist to movies. Johnny is an incredible actor, he can take up any role he wants and be amazing every time. he's also incredibly charismatic and charming.

you're just jealous because you'll never be as awesome as Johhny :roll:

Johnny Depp is one of my favourite actors and I loved him in movies like Once upon a time in Mexico & am looking forward to Sweeny Todd, looks great. Tim Burton is a great director but he is abit goth yet I loved his movie, Nightmare before Christmas.

Burton's good. Depp's done some good stuff, although I'm not a fan of the Pirate movies besides the first one. The second and third were downright terrible. Not a reflection on Depp though.

Anyone used to watch 21 jump street? Some of you probably were'nt even born...

I beg to differ. Helena plays a great psycho, as shown by her portrayel of Beatrix in the Order of the Pheonix movie.

No idea what you are talking about, Depp and Burton are great. Depp made Sweeney Todd. He wasn't a professional singer, but that was what made it great.

Meh. Depp was...pretty good. Not great. God, Helena Bonham Carter sucked though. It's been done far better on Broadway: http://youtube.com/watch?v=2cNy_uhzK2k

Yeah, I agree. I do have some critcism about Sweeney Todd, but I loved Depp in it. I didn't like Helena Bonham singing. Her acting was alright. AlsoI felt the movie was pretty poorly paced.

Also, Alan Rickman owns.

a,

Only overrated by overrating emos. ;)

They are great. I love the way Tim Burton uses colours to express feelings and relations. Thinking about Edward Scissorhand.

I found that Sweeney Todd was fantastic in every way. The acting was fantastic all around but I guess I never get sick of Helena, she is fantastic. I always disliked musicals because everyone has a fantastic voice which just seems so false in every sense. Not everyone sings well and I don't see a person like Sweet Todd being a fantastic singer. I also hate how they usually cast a bass singer for him...I just don't like that. I found that Depp and Bonham Carter did fine and I really enjoyed their singing. Of course it wasn't technically perfect but why should it be? Right?

Ed Wood is always going to be Burtons best film but in the end Depp and Burton are a very excellent duo because they work so well with each other. The chemistry they have is second to none and the films they make when collaborating are always fun to watch. Burton is creative and Depp has a wonderful flair that not many people bring.

Everyone has to watch Ed Wood because it is fantastic.

Johnny Depp was awesome in Fear N Loathing in Las Vegas....The best movie ever created by humans. And Edward Scissorhands was great, but mostly due to its awesome soundtrack by Danny Elfman.

A movie is not made great merely by its soundtrack.

Edward Scissorhands truly was a great movie.

I know, but the music in that movie really made it an emotional experience. But thanks for trying to teach me

I wasn't trying to teach you anything, don't get me wrong. But I don't think it correct to say a film is great mostly for the music. Mediocre movies that use good music to cover its faults are a dime-a-dozen, but Edward Scissorhands was great storytelling. The music merely amplified the emotions of the story.

I like Johnny Depp and he seems pretty cool. Then again I am judging him off a few films like Pirates of the Carribean and Charlie and the Chocolate factory. I've only watched about two Tim Burton films.

Johnny Depp needs to star in a remake of Pee Wee's Big Adventure. That movie is King. (I think Tim Burton made that movie as well)

I quite like Edward Scissorhands, but that was when the Gothic film style was fresh to me. Now it just feels old and overused. Plus I think Tim Burton is overrated to the extreme.

They basically made the same film over and over
