Tim Burton, the godfather of the modern superhero genre, admits he’s tired of Marvel’s tried and tested storytelling style.
"Marvel, they have their thing and there’s a certain formula to it all which seems to still be working," Burton told Yahoo Movies while promoting his new film ‘Big Eyes’.
Testament The Story of Moses Review: The series depicts Moses' journey from an outcast and murderer to a prophet and liberator of the Hebrews. It interweaves docudrama and interviews, to present a more humanly image of the prophet.
Rest In Peace Review: A man in debt disappears. Years later, he considers reconnecting with his family, but his previous life takes him by surprise.
Nerd Reactor writes that a new international post has revealed the return of a fan-favorite Toho monster.
Big words by someone whose movies have pretty well been failures in recent years
The Winter Soldier: An action movie about government conspiracy and what it means to be a patriot.
Guardians of the Galaxy: a sic-fi superhero film about five heroes, a human hipster, an alien assassin, a talking tree, an alien ronin, and a talking raccoon. A TALKING RACCOON, working through grief and finding friendship.
The Amazing Spider-man 2: We don't talk about that one.
X-Men Days of Future Past: A time traveling reboot undoing five years of pain and combining two mutant generations of awesome.
If it's a formula for success Burton's tired of, then yeah, I'm tired of good movies.
I agree with Burton - the formula is getting a bit old. I hate the way all of these movies rely around a macguffin. It never feels like there is anything at stake.
