Poor Henry Selick, actual director of nightmare before Christmas.
Anytime I hear anything about Tim Burton now, I just feel bad for Selick.

What is Charlie Shadows and the Lone Alice Bride of Fleet Street?
Needs to be more specific to narrow it down. "Johnny Depp and Helena Bonham Carter (Burton's wife) make out in this movie"
Ex-wife* they were together 13 years
What is dark shadows?
What is Sweeny Todd?
What is Fight Club?
What is love? Baby don't hurt me, don't hurt me, no more.
Johnny Depp wasn't in fight club lol
Anyway, what is Corpse Bride?
Nor was it directed by Tim Burton.
Are you sure? I'm pretty certain that I remember Tim Burton’s Fight Club in which Johnny Depp plays a haunted sandwich that was an allegory for Don King. My favorite scene is the one where the love interest is told that she has to be realistic, because she can't live with a haunted sandwich. So she eats the sandwich and dies from food poisoning.
Tell me you don't remember this very real movie that I didn't make up.
Tbf I want to watch this more than any "real" movie.
*Johhny Depp bites sandwich, suddenly he starts a transformation, much like your typical Dr. Jekyll situation with the screams and the contorting the body, then when the smoke clears the only difference is he has Don King's hair and voice/affectations.*
only difference is he has Don King's hair and voice/affectations.
And constantly reminding everyone that he's, in fact, a turkey club sandwich. And he has a few leaves of lettuce poking out from his collar.
What is Alice in Wonderland?

(Whoops, I got him mixed up with Brad Pitt, apparently. I guess you could say he was a figment of my imagination.)
Nobody knows because no one talks about it
I am Jack Sparrow's smirking revenge
What?
Always reminds me this great piece with Ricky Gervais
Is acting dangerous for one's mental health?
Oh, brilliant. I'd only seen the one with Liam Neeson before.
