Oh, I saw and like Fight Club. And I don't think I dislike HBC because she isn't technically his wife - I like plenty other shacked-up celebs just fine. She just...bugs me. Couldn't honestly tell you why.
I suspect a part of it may be because of Tim Burton's earlier work: it was eerie and perverse, but not so commercialized. Nightmare was great, Frankenweenie perfection.
Tim Burton's always been hit-or-miss with me anyway. I didn't like Scissorhands, but loved Sleepy Hollow. As I've disliked the last few Burton films, maybe I'll end up loving Alice.
