"As much as I love it, I never understood why it was a success," Burton said of the original film. "I could never place the film as something other than personal to me." He reflects on how, despite its popularity, its meaning deeply resonates with him on a personal level, suggesting that its cultural impact remains a mystery, even to its creator.
"This is just a very personal film," Burton stated, explaining his approach to the sequel. Rather than aiming for commercial success or merely reviving the original's formula, he focuses on creating a film that genuinely expresses his artistic vision and personal connection to the story and characters.
Burton expressed, "Over the past few years, I got disillusioned with the movie business. So I knew if I was going to do something I wanted to do it from my heart." This statement emphasizes his desire to return to filmmaking with sincerity and a passion for storytelling, indicating a shift away from commercial pressures.
