About Tim Burton: The last time I really, really liked one of his movies must have been way back with Corpse Bride in 2005.
Another movie that I bought today along with Frankenweenie was Burton's 2014 movie, Big Eyes. I'm hoping that one deserves it's "best Burton movie in years" reputation... At the very least, I know that I love the two lead actors (Amy Adams and Christoph Waltz).

I'd go as far to say that Shannon is the greatest actor of our time. Even ahead of people like Day-Lewis and Fassbender.
Take Shelter is good but would mediocre without Shannon's performance. Still worth a watch, just a heads up so you don't get burned by high expectations.
