LRA writes: To say that Tim Burton has been on a downward slope for the past decade would be a severe understatement (his recent film "Dark Shadows" was voted worst film of the summer by us on The LRA Show). He has been stuck in this tragic cycle of making adaptation after adaptation and never fully understanding that it was never his interpretation of existing works that made us fall under his spell more than two decades ago, it was his original stories mixed with his unusual artistic trappings that we all fell in love with. His first stop-motion feature film (as a director anyways) "Frankenweenie" harkens back to a time when his films were filled with loveable characters, a quirky sense of humor and a distinctly unique charm.
