Known for his wacky story lines, diverse set of characters, and all around kookiness, producer and director Tim Burton has been wowing (and sometimes creeping us out) since 1985. How well do you know his films?
You can’t deny that Tim Burton is one of the most out there filmmakers. His story lines draw us in, and often keep us entranced with tons of, often demented, twists and turns.
From his inception in 1985 with Pee-wee’s Big Adventure and moving on to 1988 with his iconic Beetlejuice, Burton quickly made a name for himself. Often, his films feature unlikely main characters featuring an array of issues that most of us have not often faced.
Between a man troubling with scissors for hands in Edward Scissorhands, or a skeleton in search of a new holiday besides Halloween, like in The Nightmare Before Christmas, Burton’s main story issues aren’t necessarily relatable, but are definitely entertaining.
Over time, Burton has gone on to work with 20 different films, from live-action, animation, and stop-motion animation. Over time, he has become one of the top directors in the world for his dark, often gothic, sometimes musical, and eccentric themes.
Throughout his career, Burton has achieved a great deal in the world of film. Not only has he been nominated for numerous awards, but has become very decorated with his multiple achievements, including a Golden Globe, multiple Saturn Awards, and even an Emmy.
With so many great films in his arsenal, we wonder how well you know Burton’s works? Can you recall which actor and actress seem to be cast as leads in a good majority of his films? Which of his famous films did he produce, but not direct? Take our quiz below, and find out how much you know!
