Tim Burton

This is the first of several interview with one of GEMS chaplains. Tim Burton, a former prisoner, relates his experiences with Gospel Express Ministries and finding the Lord, Jesus Christ.

“The regular world still has something special for someone who is weird.” In this episode of Why This Film?, I'm joined by comedian, broadcaster, and Maximum Fun founder Jesse Thorn to explore Pee-wee's Big Adventure (1985), the feature film debut of Tim Burton and one of the most unique comedies of the 1980s. Released in 1985, Pee-wee's Big Adventure follows Pee-wee Herman, played by Paul Reubens, as he embarks on a cross-country journey to recover his stolen bicycle. What begins as a simple quest unfolds into a surreal road movie through a hyper-stylized version of America filled with bikers, truck drivers, cowboys, movie sets, roadside attraction dinosaurs, and unforgettable characters (any Large Marge fans out there?). Jesse Thorn brings his perspective as both a lifelong Pee-wee fan and a comedy writer to the conversation. He helps unpack how Paul built one of the most unusual personas ever to reach mainstream audiences. Jesse wrote the essay for Criterion's release of the film. We discuss: Jesse's experience with the character Pee-wee Herman and the man Paul Reubens. How Tim Burton's first feature film established aesthetics that would define his career The film's blend of genres The morality, sexuality, and ambiguity of Pee-wee Why Pee-wee's Big Adventure deserves its place in the Criterion Collection Whether you grew up quoting the movie or are discovering Pee-wee Herman for the first time, this conversation explores how a film that feels completely ridiculous is also surprisingly precise.

Beetlejuice 2 is the 36 year long sequel to the original classic released in 1988 and marks the return of legendary director of Tim Burton and Michael Keaton returning once more as the title character with returning members and new members. In this video, Joshua Drake of Epictastic Joshua gives you his thoughts on Beetlejuice 2 and why it is a good legacy sequel despite holding a few problems as Ghostbusters Afterlife and Despicable Me 4 with a lot going on in the story, but still entertaining enough. #Beetlejuice2 #TimBurton #MichaelKeaton #WinonaRyder #JennaOrtega #MonicaBellucci Sypnosis Three generations of the Deetz family return home to Winter River after an unexpected family tragedy. Still haunted by Beetlejuice, Lydia's life soon gets turned upside down when her rebellious teenage daughter discovers a mysterious portal to the afterlife. When someone says Beetlejuice's name three times, the mischievous demon gleefully returns to unleash his very own brand of mayhem.
