This will either be Beetlejuice or Planet of the Apes.
Basically the greatest thing of Tim's movie career or the worst(In my opinion obviously).
I am looking forward to it BUT cautiously as he has, to me at least, been a bit hit and miss recently. Willy Wonka was cool but if i'm honest nothing like Burton could have done say 10/15 years ago.
