Why He Rocks

 * 1) He's a master of family-friendly horror cinema, as seen in The Nightmare Before Christmas, Corpse Bride, Frankenweenie, and many more.
 * 2) * On top of that, he's also done some non-family horror movies like Batman Returns and Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street, which are pretty well-done.
 * 3) His friendship and partnership with Johnny Depp, having collaborated with him in more than one of his films.
 * 4) * His friendship with Depp goes beyond professionalism. When Johnny fell into depression due to his breakup with Winona Ryder, Burton helped him to recover. He and his wife Helena Bonham Carter then did the same when Johnny got divorced from Amber Heard.
 * 5) * In addition to all of this, unlike other filmmakers, Burton is still one of the few people in the industry who supports Depp instead of Amber Heard, having tried to cast him in some of his upcoming projects, like in The Addams Family reboot he is making for mh:freshwebsites:Netflix (though Netflix forced him to not cast Depp, unfortunately).
 * 6) When asked why his movies have a bunch of white people in them, Tim responded in a civil manner that he grew up watching blaxploitation films and he was offended when The Brady Bunch "started to get all politically correct, like 'Okay, let's have an Asian child and a black'", showing he is a critic of political correctness.

Bad Qualities

 * 1) He's directed and/or produced some weaker movies, like Alice in Wonderland, its sequel Alice Through the Looking Glass, Planet of the Apes, Dark Shadows, and Dumbo.
