Why Tim Burton Dislike The Marvel Superhero Movies

In a few regards, Tim Burton is the godfather of this current superhero movie craze. Burton, alongside Richard Donner, succeeded in making comic book motion pictures of substance, and the accomplishment of Burton's Batman movies (and additionally Donner's Superman) planted the seed of what conceivably could be fulfilled by a significant studio. Christopher Nolan may have raised the procedure, however Burton established the framework.
