    'Propping up the stop motion film industry' is quite the statement. Aardman Animaton has been releasing feature length stop motion movies since 2000 and all have done very well. Also Laika only worked on Corpse Bride of Tim Burton's multiple very successful stop motion movies.

    Tim Burton (1) really only directs dark movies (tonally, not luminously), and (2) went through a phase where everything he did either involved the actress Helena Bonham Carter (including his marriage, for a while) or the actor Johnny Depp (to whom he was not married), or both. The question for this Jeopardy answer could equally be any of five things: - What is *Charlie and the Chocolate Factory*? (the 2005 film, not to be confused with the 1971 *Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory*) -…

    If you’re in Boston go see the Dybbuk at the Vilna Shul downtown. Seriously: GO. This production is amazing - by Arlekin theater. If you don’t know it, The Dybbuk is an early 20th century play that is the Jewish source text for the film Corpse Bride and many other works of art

    Burton was pretty active all over the film, he just didn’t share a directing credit (like Lucas on Star Wars 2 & 3). I suspect he later regretted that, as he was then credited as director on Corpse Bride & Frankenweenie.
