Tim Burton Facts

Rather than use CGI, Tim Burton had approximately 40 squirrels trained to crack nuts for Charlie and the Chocolate Factory.

Warner Bros. wasn't thrilled with the name 'Beetlejuice' and urged Tim Burton to change it. When executives suggested 'House Ghosts', Burton sarcastically countered with 'Scared Sheetless'. To his horror, the studio actually considered it seriously before ultimately sticking with the original title.
