As much as I love 89 Batman, I think Edward Scissorhands was Tim Burton at his absolute best.

Batman 89 is my all time favorite movie, but I love Edward Scissorhands, too.

Batman is his best film based on an existing intellectual property. Ed Wood is his masterpiece.

Easy answer: Batman '89

Nostalgia answer: Nightmare Before Christmas, which was my introduction to Burton (and Danny Elfman)

@dkalban That ones not actually directed by Burton (he was occupied working on Batman Returns, so while its based on Burton’s characters and a short story he wrote, it was directed by Henry Selick).

Eh, he produced it, he wrote the story, I accept it as part of his oeuvre :stuck_out_tongue:

For a more OUT THERE choice? Ed Wood.

Edward Scissorhands

Sleepy Hollow is my favorite non batman movie of his.
