♪ (upbeat intro) ♪
- (FBE) Today, we are going to be putting your Tim Burton knowledge
to the test. - Yes. Okay.
Cool. - I'm excited.
- (FBE) We'll be showing you a clip from a movie,
and you'll have to tell us if it was directed by Tim Burton.
You'll write your answers down, yes or no, on the blackboard
when you think you have the answer. - Okay. I feel like
she's definitely gonna win. I don't know. Tim Burton
has a very specific style, but it's not necessarily directing
the way Edgar Wright's is. Like, I wouldn't look at an angle
and be like, "That's Tim Burton." - I don't particularly pay attention
to directors and their work. So, there might be some very
non-Tim-Burton-esque films on here. - I don't pay attention
to any of that. - I am obviously a fan,
since I have, again, permanent ink on my body.
So, I think that kind of says enough about how much I like it.
And I'm really good at losing challenges.
- (laughs) Okay. So, who knows? Find out!
- Oh, Coraline. This movie [bleep] me up as a kid.
- I love Coraline. - Coraline's great.
- This is one of my favorite claymation movies.
- (Other Mother) Is that any way to talk to your mother?
- Definitely have his vibe, right? It's definitely Tim Burton vibes,
but I... I'm like, did he... - You're right.
- ...did he direct it, though? - I don't think he did, though.
- Yeah. - Other Mother is terrifying.
- Mm-hmm. - This part scared the [bleep]
out of me as a kid. - How much this relates to Tim Burton,
I don't know. I get it. It's claymation. It's creepy.
But is it Tim? - (FBE) See the boards.
All right. So, already a difference of opinion.
- Yes. - (FBE) And flip 'em!
- Three... - Two...
- (both) One.
- (FBE) "Not Burton." "No. By Henry Selick."
- Ah, that's overachieving. - (FBE) That is correct!
Tim Burton did not direct Coraline. - Nice, nice.
- But was he involved? - I also wanna say no.
- No. - Yeah. Exactly. Yeah.
I don't think he was involved at all. - It just kind of felt not Tim Burton.
It was creepy. I'm sure it was inspired by Tim Burton's work,
but I don't think it was.
- I'm just happy I got one point. - Wait. Can I have one of those?
- Yes. - Feeling good.
I'm also just excited to keep
watching these, so that's fun. - Yeah, same.
- So, who directed it? - (FBE) Henry Selick.
- Is he the guy who wrote the book? - No, he didn't write the book,
but he'll come up later actually, Henry Selick.
(glass shattering) - Oh, ho-ho-ho.
Oh, wait. Which one is it? Okay. - Are you gonna make him say the line?
Better make him say the line. Better not cut it off on me.
- This was an awesome movie. - Is this the one he directed, though?
- I don't know.
♪ (exhilarating music) ♪
- I'm gonna get everything wrong. - (Joker) Where does he...
- (Joker and Danny) Get those wonderful toys?
- Ah! Okay. (chuckles) - Are you a Batman fan? I can't tell.
- Maybe. Just a little bit. - (FBE) Flip!
Ooh, a difference of opinion here.
- Three, two, one.
- (FBE) Morgan...
you are wrong. He did direct this move.
Jasser gets the point. - Really?!
- Yeah, he directed this one and the sequel.
- Really?! He directed two Batman movies?
- He did. - Ah! I didn't think
he did the first one. Dammit. Sad days.
- When I found out that Batman was directed by Tim Burton,
I was like, really? How odd.
- So, school has really been helping me out for this challenge,
'cause I watched this in my film class last semester,
and we talked about Tim Burton and Danny Elfman and everything.
- You watched the whole movie for film class?
- The whole movie. - Oh my god!
- It was great. - I'm so jealous.
- (Centipede) Hey, that one felt pretty good.
- James and the Giant Peach.
Wait, no. What the heck? - Yeah.
- I just saw Jack Skellington
for like a second. - No!
- Yeah, not him. - (FBE) Yes, you did.
- I did?! Right? - Where?!
- I know. Right there! - OHHH!
- What the heck? - I just saw Jack in the corner.
See-- - (FBE) No, it is James
and the Giant Peach. - Oh, [bleep]. Ohhhh!
I didn't catch that Easter egg ever!
- Ohh. - Not gonna lie,
the spider is so hot. I don't know why.
- (both laugh) - I love it.
- One of my favorites. As soon as I got Disney+,
I was like, "I need this." - This movie scared me a lot,
maybe more than it should've. I mean, it has Jack Skellington in it.
It has to be [bleep] Tim Burton. But did he direct it?
This is hard! - (FBE) Let's see 'em.
- Show me Burton! - I think I'm wrong.
- (FBE) Ooh. You're in agreement. All right.
Well, you're both wrong. - Oh.
- Thought so. Thought so. It's one of those.
- (FBE) Jasser also gets the point.
He did not direct it. - Noooo!
- Okay, okay. - All right.
- (FBE) Well done. - It's not a difference
of opinion. - Come on!
- I don't know facts! I'm gonna come back.
- Yeah. - I'm gonna tie it up at 2-3.
- Tie it up. Tie it up.
- You got a chance, Morgan. - So, we can tie it up.
- Don't give up. Don't give up. - We can tie it up.

- So good. - (FBE) Did Tim Burton direct
this movie? - You tell me, buddy.
- (FBE) Ooh. Confident yeses. All right. Let's see it.
- This one always confuses me. - (FBE) Ooh.
- We both said no. - (relieved) Okay.
- (FBE) Ooh.
- No! - Yay!
And it was directed by? - Henry Selick, obviously,
as I knew before she wrote that name down,
'cause I've heard of it all of the time.
- (FBE) Okay. Well, you're correct. - Yeah. (laughs)
- What?! - Yup. It's Selick.
- It's always referenced as Tim Burton's Nightmare
Before Christmas. It's never [bleep] referenced
as Henry Selick's Nightmare Before Christmas!
[Bleep] this guy! Sorry, Henry. I'm sorry.
I'm sure you're a very lovely man. I'm just obviously extremely enraged.
- I'm so sorry, Henry. This is one of those moments
where it should've been you. - I know that Tim Burton
worked on this movie. - Yes.
- But it always confuses me, 'cause I'm like, wait.
I feel like he did something. But no, it was also Henry Selick.
- You're catching up. - Thank you! I never planned
on winning. I just wanted to hang out really.
- Yay. - Yay!
- (alien speaking foreign language) - What is this?
- I actually don't even know where it's from.
Mind Hunters or something? - No, it's like Attack on Mars
or something. - Oh, okay.
- I didn't know Jack Nicholson was in this.
- (alien) We come in peace. We come in peace.
- I surprisingly haven't seen this. - Really?
It is funny. - I need to see it.
- See the young Natalie Portman? - Really?
- Yeah.
- I have no idea what's going on.
- That bird's gonna get shot, right?
- Wow. We stan old CGI. - Yeah.
(laser zapping) - (man gasps)
- (snickers) - This is a great movie.
- [Bleep] that bird. (chuckles) - [Bleep] that bird.
- (FBE) So, this was Mars Attacks. Did Tim Burton direct it?
- Although, I'd be surprised if I was right, but, again,
I'm only-- I have no idea, right? So...
- Stop saying "although." - (laughs)
- And stop being so elusive!
Do I have to?
- (FBE) Ooh. Let's see the boards.
Flip 'em! Ooh!
- Yeah! - (FBE) Well done, the two
of you guys. That was, in fact, directed by Timothy Burton.
- 50/50 chance. Board five! - Yay.
- Woo! - (FBE) Yeah, Jasser's right.
- Really?! (laughs) - If I cry, can I get
like half a pity point? 'Cause I could totally cry right now.
I'm not a fake fan. Everyone's gonna be like,
"Morgan's such a [bleep] fake fan. She says she likes Tim Burton,
'cause she has those tattoos, and she doesn't know one movie
he's directed." - It ruined me as a kid.
- This definitely would've [bleep] me up as a child.
I'm glad I didn't participate. - It would've, I promise you.
- It seems like all the animated stuff,
we assumed was him, and all the live action stuff
was actually him. So... - Not Henry Selick in this one, huh?
- (FBE) So, here's the thing. So, this is only gonna
be five seconds long. - (both) Okay.
- (FBE) And because of that, we're gonna give you two points
if you get it right. - Oh. Okay.
♪ (dramatic music) ♪ - Oh.
- Planet of the Apes? - That has to be it.
- (FBE) Let's see 'em. - Mine's no. Is yours yes?
- Yeah. - (FBE) Both of you say yes.
- Ha-ha! - (laughs)
- Please don't let me lose 7-1. - What'd you put?
- I put NO! (laughs) - Oh. (laughs)
I'm gonna step away before she breaks something.
- (FBE) This is the 2001 Planet of the Apes movie, which he...
did direct. - Okay. Thank God.
- Oh, wow. I did not know that! Wow. Okay.
- Yay. - Hell yeah.
- Did we tie? - No.
- You tried your best. (laughs) - (laughs) And that was like
the least comforting. Like, "You know what?
I think you tried your best, and you still lost 7-1."
- You know what? I think this is the Mandela effect.
I think in an alternate universe, Tim Burton did direct Nightmare,
did direct Coraline, probably did Wallace and Gromit too,
you know? - I'm so happy.
I literally, for some reason, thought I was gonna fail,
and I didn't. He's one of my favorite directors,
and his aesthetics are so good, and I appreciate it.
- You for sure know, like, the next time this happens,
you'll dominate. - Hey! You wanna know who directed
The Planet of the Ape, 2001? [Bleep] Tim Burton! (chuckles)
- I feel great. Tim Burton has been a big inspiration in my life.
I'm gonna start crying. I don't know.
Something about his art always just made me so happy.
- I really like Tim Burton, and I appreciate all of his movies.
I think they're incredible.
But it's cool to see Ary LOVES them, and they're one
of your favorite things. - I love them.
- Well, I think that just says a lot for Tim Burton's style in general.
You know, his style has become really iconic to the point
where if any other sort of creative feels inspired by Tim,
that it's very obvious when it is, you know?
- It's just gonna be Tim.
