Burtonesque
adj used to describe people, objects, actions or a kind of atmosphere/tone, which bare a resemblance in nature style to the films of acclaimed director Tim Burton. Burton's films are encapsulated by imaginative and fantastical worlds and characters, reminiscent of the horror films, folk tales and fairytales that bare influence upon the director. These films are characteristically surreal, avant-garde and expressionistic, the tone of which is commonly described as 'dark' and 'gothic' owing to Burton's romanticism and fascination with the macabre. Burton approaches uncomfortable topics with great wit and humour - as if laughing at the world for taking itself too seriously. Burton uses satire, irony and the anti-hero as a tools for social commentary, which is magnified by his juxtaposition of the cliche and the absurd. Johnny Depp says of Burton: "He is an artist, a genius, an oddball, an insane, brilliant, brave, hysterically funny, loyal, non-conformist, honest friend" (Burton on Burton revised edition). This statement is one's best reference for the term Burtonesque, as all of theses qualities are inherent in the films of Tim Burton.

Good quality ceramic cup! Worth the novelty price!
Perfect gift for my gf
Looks great! Came quick
Gave it to my nerd brother. He used it consume liquid
Love it
as a fan of non-Z-generation-UD (since 2000 more or less) , especially of old-school definitions ("phat!") (as Nick, the more time passes by, the more I reach my inner age = 75 XD) , I totally appreciated the delivery in time for Christmas! (whispering) Perhaps printing quality in the Spain printing company is not as good as in the US, but - hey! - I got it before Christmas as a gift for my thank-God-non-Gen-Z-sister! ;) hugs from the eighties, and from Italy, and thanks!

Like the mug for my daughter, but didn’t notice that I had color choices when checking out. The yellow was pre-set so I got that color. Would much rather have selected a different color.
Cute, well-made mug! Exactly like the photo. I can't wait to give this as a gift this Christmas!
