neutral · AI labelView post →BIG FISH is a criminally underrated Tim Burton movie
positive · AI labelView post →What a brutal, depressing, cynical movie. I haven't been this depressed leaving a movie since I watched Big Fish while my dad was in a coma. Do NOT recommend.
negative · AI labelView post →It’s still my opinion that Big Fish is the best movie Tim Burton has ever made, even tho’ I can only watch it every few years* because the ending makes me a sobbing mess.

I first introduced it 15 years ago, it was titled "Da Hai", co-produced with a French company. Back then donghuas were rarely mentioned. catsuka.com/news/tag/da_...

Was recommended a modern reimagining of MacBeth and eh. Meh. Revisited Big Fish after reading the book and I think I like the movie more. 🤯 #Letterboxd
positive · AI labelView post →Watching Big Fish. An excellent fantasy movie from 2003. I highly recommend it.
positive · AI labelView post →When I first heard “Karl” as the name of the fog in San Francisco I thought it sounded dumb but just assumed it had some deep meaning and dated back years. And then I found out it was a recycled name of a Karl the Giant from Tim Burton's 2003 film Big Fish and I couldn’t be less onboard with that.
neutral · AI labelView post →7. Big Fish: This is a pretty cute movie with some fun little short story-vignettes. I will admit that it did start to go on a little bit too long for me, but the last 15-20 minutes make up for it!
neutral · AI labelView post →BIG FISH is probably my favorite Burton movie these days. WHO'D A THUNK A MOVIE ABOUT A GUY DEALING WITH HIS FEELINGS ABOUT HIS BAD DAD WHO LIES A LOT WOULD RESONATE WITH FARTS JOHNSON It's a very sweet film and doesn't really seem like a Burton film at all, except for the Helena Bonham Carter bits
positive · AI labelView post →I'm disgusted that - although you haven't explicitly said so - the title of this film is clearly "Big Fish, Small Pond" or something similar

positive · AI labelView post →BEST MOVIE 5 What's the best movie by... Tim Burton? Easily 'Big Fish'. Like, Burton has always been big on style, but story hasn't always been his strongest suit. Here, I feel the style and story go hand in hand, and it's one of the most fascinating book adaptations put to film.
positive · AI labelView post →For those who've watched it... Is there any film you've seen that's left you as emotionally traumatised as Big Fish? We were just talking about it. Seen it once, beautifully put together, but we've never been able to go near it since...

positive · AI labelView post →Remembering Albert Finney, who died on today's date in 2019 at age 82. I knew him best from movies like Big Fish, Miller's Crossing, and Erin Brokovich -- but when I recently embarked on a Kitchen Sink film journey, I was delighted to discover him in Saturday Night and Sunday Morning. Great stuff.

Big Fish That's right not only was he not nominated for Batman but also didn't receive noms for Beetlejuice, Edward Scissorhands, Sleepy Hollow, or Corpse Bride. Not even The Nightmare Before Christmas!
