), it appears that director Tim Burton doesn't quite understand why it was so successful and developed such a following. "As much as I love it, I never understood why it was a success," Burton said of the original film.

"I could never place the film as something other than personal to me. So after all these years being able to work with Michael [Keaton], Winona [Ryder] and Catherine [O'Hara] again made it more personal and special along with Jenna [Ortega], Monica [Belluci], Justin [Theroux] and Willem [Dafoe] - new people who got into the spirit of it. So it was a very personal project for me."
