I directors who stretch themselves with projects that are completely different that what they normally do.
I also like Tim Burton, however.
Update (3/22/10) this has been revealed to be completely false.

It's animated- Burton will play Gomez AND fester.
And Helena will be Morticia...
yawn.
I wonder who will do the music?
Good; it's time he went back to stop motion. Considering the last was five years ago.
Hopefully, he'll try pulling together a new creative team ... because his work is getting a tad predictable.
In any case, this sounds like a good project.

Paul Reubens was interviewed a few months ago while promoting his new show. He mentioned how he was working on 2 new Pee Wee Herman scripts and how he hopes a new film could begin very soon.He hinted,but I think it was wishful thinking, that he would LOVE for Tim Burton to shoot his new Pee Wee film. Tim Burton going back to something like that,even if it's a rumor,makes me happy.
This has been revealed to be a rumor.
