Tim Burton Films to Marathon Part 2 (And their associated drinking game)

by | Jan 5, 2018 | Random | 0 comments

This is part two of the Tim Burton movie Marathon! During the last marathon I watched the kid-friendly Tim Burton films. This list IS NOT FOR KIDS not only because of their ratings but also because with this list I will also be participating in drinking games! Feel free to pick and choose your favourite rules or do all of them for varying degrees of sloshiness.

**PLEASE DRINK RESPONSIBLY**

Also, Spoilers.

Batman and Batman Returns

These two films are together and should be watched together too. Good luck!

 

  1. Check out those moves! Drink anytime Batman punches someone!
  2. Laughter can be infectious but maybe not for everyone. Take a drink every time the Joker laughs
  3. Oh! More memories! Let’s shove those down the memory pipe so we can forget by taking a drink every time that there’s a flashback.
  4. Look! There in the sky! Take a drink every time the Batman symbol is shown.
  5. Penguins… Cats… take a drink every time the villains act like animals.
  6. Luckily there was no such thing as tweets back in the day (yes young ones I mean the 90’s). Take a drink every time the media is shown (good ol’ fashioned T.V and newspapers)

Sweeney Todd

The barber of Fleet Street takes his revenge on London after getting back from prison. He has his eye on one man but must wait to exact his revenge until the perfect moment. Until then why not murder people and bake them in meat pies!

 

  1. Wait! What? This is a musical?? Drink every time someone starts singing!
  2. Eating one of Mrs. Lovett’s delicious pies? You’ll probably need a drink when you find out whats in them. Drink EVERY TIME someone eats one of those scrumptious meat pies!
  3. Showing respect for your betters? Take a drink every time someone says “my Lord” or “Judge”
  4. When you have a cute nickname for your BFF in cannibal crime. Take a drink Anytime Mrs. Lovett calls Sweeney Todd “Mr. T.”
  5. Ever see one of those awkward, one-sided romances blossom? Take a drink every time Mrs. Lovett makes an advance on Mr. T.
  6. REDRUM. Whoops! Wrong movie. Murder! I mean murder! Take a drink every time Sweeney slits someone’s throat.

Sleepy Hollow

An American folk tale about a headless horseman on a murdering rampage. 

  1. Faint at the sight of blood? Or bodies? Or anything vaguely unpleasant? Take a drink anytime someone faints (I’m mostly looking at you Icabod Crane).
  2. Detective work can be a bloody business. Take a drink every time Icabod gets sprayed with blood.
  3. Is it just me, or does there seem to be a lot of decapitation all up in here? Take a drink every time someone’s head get’s cut off.
  4. Gadgets and gizmos a plenty! Take a drink every time Icabod pulls out a homemade invention!
  5. That horseman guy always seems to be feelin’ stabby. Take a drink every time he draws his sword.
  6. Those pesky memories again! Take a drink for every flashback.

Coraline

This film could probably be on the kid-friendly list as it is rated PG, however this film creeps me out so much that I wouldn’t share it with children. Kids don’t seem to be as weirded out as I am with this film, probably because they don’t realize exactly what’s happening and how messed up it is.

 

  1. BUTTONS! They’re everywhere in this film! And for better or worse take a drink when you see one.
  2. Take a drink every time you see that darn cat!
  3. I hate it when people get my name wrong don’t you? Take a drink every time someone calls Coraline “Caroline.”
  4. We all that that favourite toy as a kid that we may or may not have talked to… take a drink every time Coraline talks to her doll.

Edward Scissorhands

A film about the bland American suburbia getting shaken up when a strange man is taken in by one of the families. Edward tries to fit in and even falls in love, but what would a romance be if chaos didn’t ensue?

Edward Scissorhands

 

  1. We all have our clumsy moments. Take a drink every time Edward accidentally cuts something with his scissor hands. You know, in solidarity.
  2. There’s nothing wrong with him! Take a drink every time someone tells Edward that they have a doctor friend who can help his condition.
  3. Oh the memories! Take a drink every time Edward has a flash back to make those memories fuzzier.
  4. Take a drink every time Edward stares at Kim. Because AWKWARD.
  5. Take a drink any time Joyce flirts with anyone. She don’t need no liquid courage but the rest of us certainly do!
  6. Sometimes you just don’t want to listen to someone lecturing. Take a drink every time Bill give advice to Edward.

Mars Attacks!

This film is dark and hilarious. It’s a little bit different than Tim Burton’s other films but it’s still great!

 

  1. Those martians certainly have an unnerving laugh. Let’s comfort ourselves by taking a drink.
  2. Is this thing even working? Take a drink every time that translator machine is translating.
  3. What? Main characters die?? That’s sooo GOT. Take a drink to relieve your sorrow.
  4. Is it a bird? Is it a plane? No! It’s a UFO! Take a drink.
  5. Who doesn’t like dogs? Take a drink every time the chihuahua barks.

 

Alright folks! Comment and share how you fared with these films and their drinking games. Which ones did you watch and do you even remember what happened? Did anything funny happen? Let me know!
