    What?! I was holding off voting, but maybe I'll just vote for Edward Scissorhands and none of the others. It can't be eliminated, it's one of the best movies, and probably my personal favorite, in the competition.

    Also, how does Sleepy Hollow have more votes than Edward Scissorhands. It's Tim Burton's better film, and Depp's better performance

    Was going to also say it was funny to see 3 Depp movies in the same bracket.

    Edward Scissorhands is somehow still trailing Wayne's World by one for second place.

    I just voted, but it's still behind. Where is Jean? It can't loose out to Wayne's World? I think having 2 Burton/Depp movies in the same poll has maybe split peoples votes.

    What I don't understand is where all this love for Sleepy Hollow is coming from. It's a decent movie, but...

    It's just as baffling to me. It'll be sad for Edward Scissorhands to be out so soon. It's my personal pick for best film of the 90s.

    Honestly I'm in love with that movie's cinematography and choice of color scheme. The villain is memorable, and I have a soft spot for tales featuring the super natural; witches, spells, demons etc., For me it has a perfect balance of macabre and mystery.

    All of that stuff put together and then Burton putting his twist on it is just awesome.

    Hearts are tough, she said, most times hearts don't break, and I'm sure that's right . . . but what about then? What about who we were then? What about hearts in Atlantis?
