Tim Burton has lost his edge. His last three films were adaptations from other peoples works. Don't get me wrong. He is a true stylist within the Hollywood machine but he is at his best when working from his own canvas. The surreal twists can spring from his own imagination and not someone elses. That's what endeared him to many people. It is so hard to hang onto individuality in Hollywood and anyone who does deserve that is Burton. Unfortunately his surrealism has been sadly lacking recently.
