Official Tim Burton Club™ ;3 (Opened To All) [Not Haters]

[Burtonite]

LoL wow. And that song was in my head all day! No joke

[purplepeopleseater]

I usally have either that song, or remains of the day stuck in my head. Sometimes This is Halloween

[Dradogo]

Just thought I should let you know that Tim had absolutely nothing to do with the movie, Coraline. It was written and directed by Henry Selick who shares Burton's bizarre style when writing and directing movies. ^_^

-Random Poem of the Day-

Vincent

Vincent Malloy is seven years old
He’s always polite and does what he’s told
For a boy his age, he’s considerate and nice
But he wants to be just like Vincent Price

He doesn’t mind living with his sister, dog and cats
Though he’d rather share a home with spiders and bats
There he could reflect on the horrors he’s invented
And wander dark hallways, alone and tormented

Vincent is nice when his aunt comes to see him
But imagines dipping her in wax for his wax museum

He likes to experiment on his dog Abercrombie
In the hopes of creating a horrible zombie
So he and his horrible zombie dog
Could go searching for victims in the London fog

His thoughts, though, aren’t only of ghoulish crimes
He likes to paint and read to pass some of the times
While other kids read books like Go, Jane, Go!
Vincent’s favourite author is Edgar Allen Poe

One night, while reading a gruesome tale
He read a passage that made him turn pale

Such horrible news he could not survive
For his beautiful wife had been buried alive!
He dug out her grave to make sure she was dead
Unaware that her grave was his mother’s flower bed

His mother sent Vincent off to his room
He knew he’d been banished to the tower of doom
Where he was sentenced to spend the rest of his life
Alone with the portrait of his beautiful wife

While alone and insane encased in his tomb
Vincent’s mother burst suddenly into the room
She said: “If you want to, you can go out and play
It’s sunny outside, and a beautiful day”

Vincent tried to talk, but he just couldn’t speak
The years of isolation had made him quite weak
So he took out some paper and scrawled with a pen:
“I am possessed by this house, and can never leave it again”
His mother said: “You’re not possessed, and you’re not almost dead
These games that you play are all in your head
You’re not Vincent Price, you’re Vincent Malloy
You’re not tormented or insane, you’re just a young boy
You’re seven years old and you are my son
I want you to get outside and have some real fun.

”Her anger now spent, she walked out through the hall
And while Vincent backed slowly against the wall
The room started to swell, to shiver and creak
His horrid insanity had reached its peak

He saw Abercrombie, his zombie slave
And heard his wife call from beyond the grave
She spoke from her coffin and made ghoulish demands
While, through cracking walls, reached skeleton hands

Every horror in his life that had crept through his dreams
Swept his mad laughter to terrified screams!
To escape the madness, he reached for the door
But fell limp and lifeless down on the floor

His voice was soft and very slow
As he quoted The Raven from Edgar Allen Poe:

“and my soul from out that shadow
that lies floating on the floor
shall be lifted?
Nevermore…”

i suggegted we put it there beacause Tim Burton produced it.

[Dradogo]

Tim didn't produce it; he would be in the credits with the other producers of the movie if he had. There was also an interview with him a while ago in which he confirmed that he had nothing to do with the making of Coraline.

And... I saw 9 for the first time today. I'd never had the chance to see it until now, and I'm addicted to it xD That's another of his movies I need to add to my collection. <3

Then how did soooooo many people say that he had something to do with it? Where did they get that idea?

[Dradogo]

It's seems to be only because it's the kind of movie that he would make. But there is no mention of him in the credits and no record of even a rumour about him being involved.

-Random poem of the day-


Stain Boy


Of all the super heros,
the strangest one by far,
doesn't have a special power,
or drive a fancy car.

Next to Superman and Batman,
I guess he must seem tame.
But to me he is quite special,
and Stain Boy is his name.

He can't fly around tall buildings,
or outrun a speeding train,
the only talent he seems to have
is to leave a nasty stain.

Sometimes I know it bothers him,
that he can't run or swim or fly,
and because of this one abilty,
his dry cleaning bill's sky-high.
