Tim Burton films

If you know me in real life, you would now I like weird and quirky things.

It doesn't matter if we're talking about music, fashion, movies or anything else, I like things that are unique, different.

When it comes to movies I like almost everything, but in the weird and quirky department Tim Burton is one of the rulers.

He is one of my favourite directors (and usually also the writer and producer of his movies).

I like that fact that Johnny Depp and Tim Burton's wife Helena Bonham Carter play a (often big) part in his movies.

They are amazing at playing strange characters and they have great on screen chemistry.

These are the Tim Burton movies I've seen:

*Beetlejuice

*Edward Scissorhands

*Ed Wood

*Mars Attacks!

*Sleepy Hollow

*Planet Of The Apes

*Big Fish

*Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber Of Fleet Street

While writing this blog I've come to realise that there are still a lot of Tim Burton films on my must-see list.

A few of them:

*Charlie And The Chocolate Factory

*Corpse Bride

And most of all:

*Alice In Wonderland

What do y'all think of Tim Burton movies?

Do you like them or do you think they are meh?

Avatar, the movie

A few weeks ago I went to the movies with a friend of mine.

I had heard that Avatar (a 3D movie) was supposed to be awesome, so I decided to go see it.

When we arrived at the cinema, the lobby was crammed full of people that wanted to see Avatar.

Because of that, we had to sit at the front row :S.

We were handed goggles to wear, so we could see the movie in 3D.

Needless to say, the goggles weren't pretty (though nice colours: black and red), but since everyone was wearing them, it didn't bother me.

The movie started and I was amazed by the 3D effects.

There was so much going on on the screen and since it was in 3D it made me dizzy and a bit nauseous for the first 30 minutes.

After that, my body adjusted to the 3D effect and the speed of it, and I could enjoy the movie better.

The main character is a guy called Jake Sully, who is in the Navy (I think).

He is paralysed from the waist down and therefore in a wheelchair.

In the movie there's a war on a planet between humans and blue creatures called Avatar.

American scientist have made hybrids of Avatar and human dna.

The human the dna was used is linked to the hybrid, and so the human can take over the mind of the avatar.

Jake Sully is one of those people that is linked to an Avatar and he is sent to the Avatar to learn from them.

He learns a lot and nothing will be the same ever again.

I won't say anymore, since I don't want to ruin it for you if you haven't seen Avatar yet.

I do advise you however, to go see this movie!

It's awesome and you really don't want to miss it!

So, here's the movie trailer (it's a bit boring, but the movie definitely isn't!):

So, what do you think of Avatar?
